Garden Rose.. "All OPTIONS on the table" doesn't necessarily mean feet on the ground ... we can be called dumb . .Iraq was dumb and wrong and immoral ... ! but think about this for a minute ... We go into Iran with soldiers ? ... Please ... Afghanistan on one side ...Syria? and Hezbollah ..and Hamas, Al Qaeda from Yeman & everywhere .. would make it over there ..now look.... ;) I KNOW we've been very very DUMB ! .. .but I can't believe that we would be that dumb ... . PLEASE! we wouldn't be that dumb ....;) There are other ways to defeat a country, ESPECIALLY when it's the peoples desire .. however, that's only in the cities .. Rurally, that's NOT the case .. they are content with the religious dictatorship .. so really .... I just don't know .. I will just say ... I believe that YOU can trust me ... OUR GENERALS and Obama would NOT allow it .......as we would be defeated PLUS it would RIP UP! the entire region .... .. and about China

please don't forget ... China needs us also ... to have the money to buy the oil from Iran ...it's a two way street ... Russia ? all bluster they will do nothing but screech ... of course this is all my opinion .. and that's it .. and it is from things I have read over the years .. from people who speak different Arabic languages .. and of course ... I do know this country at THIS particular time ... so I'm confident that there will NEVER be feet on the ground at least for another year ... .

the congress is nuts .. . they writhe loudly but have no teeth .. just noise ..

I missed your edit ... sorry..;( ....By the way, what do they (Iran) have to wise up about? ..

This government in the 1st year and 1/2 since 2009 reached out to Iran for diplomat talks several times .. MORE than two .. three at least .. and their response ? ... Yes ..... and then NO ...can't make it ... they did this every time .. AND now THEY are asking to meet diplomatically, I have no idea our response ..YET...now..that previous behavior was not wise. They have alarmed the entire western world ... Germany, France and England ... and keep in MIND .. CHINA also exports to them also ... so..It would be a much better deal for EVERYONE ..IF Iran came in from the cold ... they are NOT well liked in the ME either ..only by some of the states, Syria, 'some' in Lebanon and 'some' in Palestine and I am sure 'some' in the other countries ... but NOT the richest and the most powerful ones ... I know we talked about his before .. but it was revealed that several .. MORE than two countries .. have BEGGED the US to 'attack Iran' in the past ... now that is sad .. and it's a losing proposition for them ..

and us ........and EVERYONE over there ..It takes cooperation to be prosperous in our world today .. and Iran needs to improve on that for the GOOD of its PEOPLE ...
