Thread Name: BS: The coming war with Iran?
Subject: RE: BS: The coming war with Iran?
Doug, you must not have read all the links I posted since the beginning of this thread. They represent a variety of views, some in favour of military action against Iran, and some not. Some claiming that Iran is a real threat, some saying that is not so.

Given the fact that I don't know for sure which of these views is the more realistic, I'm interested in any and all views on the subject. I do think a war is coming with Iran, but I'm not sure if it will be simply in the form of air attacks or a full scale invasion. Then again, there may be no such war coming.

I just don't know.

I suggest to you and to all other people...don't be so 100% sure that your particular bias on the matter is all there is to say about it. I'm biased, no question, but I do not claim to be 100% sure that my view of it is the only right one. By no means! We are all forming opinions based on what other people tell us, and those people are most likely fallible, just like we are, and prejudiced, just like we are.

None of us will know for sure until after it happens...if it does. Even then we won't know all the facts.

You note that I put a question mark behind "The coming war with Iran" (?) That means...is it coming? or is it not? And if so, why? And if not, why?

I view everything I hear about it as questionable. (whether or not I tend to agree with the writer)
