 |  Subject: Long range missile tests  Fri Jul 11, 2008 8:14 am | |
| So Iran tested 9 long range ballistic missiles the other day, to make a show of force and technology, using the excuse that they feel threatened by Israel.
Iran has always been on the cusp of violence for a while now, and it seems we might get into some action with them if it heats up.
So, lets discuss possible scenarios that might play out of Iran decides a building in Israel needs to go boom.
My theory is that if they do indeed come into conflict with Israel, they will mine the straights of Hormuz and begin harrasing US and other allied force ships within the Persian Gulf, as well as the Gulf of Oman. It is an excuse for them to do soemthing they have always claimed they did. control the gulf. I don't think any persian country will aid the US if we decide to back up Israel, and you know ISrael will get pissed off if we don't help them. Because for some strange reason we still consider them an ally. Iran has been using gorrilla tactics in the gulf the last few years boarding and "detaining" UN and neutral parties in international waters, claiming they are spies and in their territorial waters, so i think this could blow up and get out of hand. by the way territorial waters extend 12 nautical miles, Iran seems to think they own out to 25 nautical miles. too bad that half the gulf just about. |

| If they manage to hit a building in Israel, they are boned. The Israeli army is the best in the world (man for man) And Israel will waste no time and just launch a full scale war with Iran, the US will take Iran's side to attempt and get a better friendship with them to get better Oil imports. The world will be outraged...and if the US DOES side with them it could very well lead to a global War. The middle east is unstablle as is, but with missiles coming out of there it could be a potential problem.

| Thats the thing though. we are already allies with Israel.
Siding against them to favor Iran would screw us over.
They already blow themselves up on Gaza, in Jerusalem, do you really think they would have a problem having some of their contacts do it over here? And you are right. Israeli military forces are top notch. If we had to enter a conflict with them we would have to just turn the country into a parking lot. Because you know if we had to invade israel them and the palastines would find a common cause long enough to kick our ass.
This is not only a posturing moment for Iran, but also a way for them to cause chaos within our allied forces. |

| Right, the easiest way to settle this is to basicly nuke the f**kers before they nuke, USA, UK, Israel, They dont have Nuclear power yet, but in 10 years they will, maybe less.
But if they do get it, they wont fire one, purely because the country getting attacked will send one right away, USA,UK,Israel, all the Nuclear power countires have nuclear arms ready incase of this.
I believe that no Nuclear weapons will be fired in the day and age. |

| | It's funny though the media makes a big fuzz about Iran, and we portray Israel as this innocent young country. If war erupts Israels big brother aka the US will probably be the firsts ones there. If it were up to me I would let them fight amongst each other. But no!!!! The US has to go to the rescue. |

Israel was a ally with us because they were our major influence in the middle east(other reasons yes, but thats the bare bone of it). Sorry 2 say for the Israelites, we have a new base of operations in the middle east, called Iraq. Politically, we don't really need Israel anymore. If Iran attacks Israel(who will be backed by Palestine) we won't retaliate because its Israel, but for our own benefits, since we have it in for Iran anyways.
Your scenario is pretty realistic. Both Iran and Palestine hate Israel. I could easly see them tag team Israel if the opportunity came. People may not like the U.S. being in Iraq. But our presence alone has halted actions like these. We(the US) would step in just for the sake of not letting Iran spread there influence.

I agree that the U.S. would most likely step in if this happened anytime soon, but for different reasons. We all know Iraq was all about the oil, despite the excuses President Bush made up. The U.S. would step in because, yes, Israel is our ally, but the U.S. will take any chance it sees to make more profit in the middle east.
If this happened after a new president took office, however, then I doubt we would step in. Look what Iraq did to Bush's image. Whomever the new president happens to be, I doubt they'd want to risk a new Iraq. I think that the U.S.'s actions in response to this (if it does happen) will depend heavily on who's president if/when it happens.
