    If I were religious I would pray for US military intervention in Syria. It houses major terrorist groups such as the Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the Fatah.

    Iran is only an immidiate threat if a weapons program can be proven or if they deny UN inspection.

    Why is No Ko not mentioned as well?
    They've admitted to nuclear weapons and experiments.

    Well, as I know it, Iran doesn't have a "missle program." They have heavy-water nuclear reactors. European negotiators tried to trade Iran's heavy-water reactor for a light-water one, but they weren't interested. Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Hamid Reza Asefi explained that Iran won't give up their heavy-water reactor because they want to be a major player in the nuclear energy field in the next 15 years "because there will be an energy shortage in the future." (Peak Oil, obviously.)

    Bush has accused Iran of "pursuing nuclear weapons while depriving its people of the freedom they seek and deserve."

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/4261567.stm

    Well, the Bush Admin. has [indirectly] threatened to enforce sanctions on Iran and/or engage in military action against Iran if they do not stop development of their nuclear energy system.

    Well, I guess Syria is simply part of the 'Axis of Evil.' I'm not really sure what the neo cons would want with Syria, seeing as the entire nation only contains 2.4 billion barrels of proved oil (enough to supply the world for a mere 29 days), but I'm sure it has some kind of strategic importance. I could probably look it up for you . . .

    I'm not talking about attacking them, but perhaps, why is the Bush Admin. not stopping it now?

    Then you might as well pray for military intervention in Sudan, North Korea, Burma, China, Saudi Arabia, Libya, Pakistan, Turkmenistan, Zimbabwe, Equatorial Guinea, Swaziland, Belarus, Cuba, Uzbekistan, Congo, Eritrea, Vietnam, and Laos, seeing as all of those nations live under brutal dictators.

    This is exactly why Bush's plan to "bring freedom to the world" is complete bullshit. Are we really going to liberate all of those people? I don't think so.

    If you think about it, according to Bush's definitions, the US should be invaded, and our government should be thrown out. Let's see, we have nuclear weapons, there's one thing. Oh yeah, the Bush Admin has said many times that there are terrorists here in America. So, a nation that harbors terrorists and has nuclear weapons . . . hmm, sounds like something I've heard before.

    It can only be stopped by an attack.

    I could not give a fuck about dictators. I dislike Syria because they house more terrorists than the mind can comprehend, and because those terrorist endanger the life of the few family members I have everyday.

    Yes, but you must realize that a war on terror is only going to create more terrorist activity!

    It depends on how well the war is handled. The war in Iraq was hendled terribly. If Israel is allowed to call shots on an attack on Syria... then the war will function magnificently.
