Israel Dismisses Warnings From US About Attacking Iran

48. Some truth here, but may I add:

1.)The Archduke was a relatively important character and not hated by many like Ahmadinejad is(in fact, probably the opposite)!

2.)World War I definitely was about the alliances, mostly, that is true. But I beg to differ re: WWII, as many recognized Hitler as a completely out-of-control madman who desired to eventually bring all of Europe under the heel of Nazi Germany, and only those nations who really sympathized with them dared even support the alliance(Finland may be an exception to that rule, however, as not many fascists existed there at that tim but many non-socialist Finns feared Stalin).

3.)There may eventually be a semi-Cold War of sorts, but it will likely be against China and will be more economic than military.

4.)Obama has already shown serious reluctance to get dragged into yet another war. What makes people assume that Moscow will get involved to protect a country which not only doesn't respect them(Iran, of course) but has assisted terrorists in Russia's southwest?

We can both agree that Iran poses no direct threat to the U.S.; it does not mean, however, that Iran isn't a threat period.
