Bush says: "Attack on Iran ridiculous"

Post by **SplishSplash** » Tue Feb 22, 2005 10:27 pm

"This notion that the United States is getting ready to attack Iran is simply ridiculous. Having said that, all options are on the table," Bush said.

Even the ridiculous ones? :icon28:

The Persians need to end their occupation of Iran.

Yes that is Bush, characteristically retarded.

Although the EU wants to sell weapons to China and Russia is building a nuclear power plant in Iran.

Its sad to see that with Iraq a democracy the cunts like Germany and France still won't support Iraq when it needs help from foreign terrorists and Saddams Baathist thugs. France will only contribute one guy that they are only sending to Brussels FFS to coordinate training of Iraqis. If that ain't a typical cowardly French military action I don't know what it is.
You can be sure they are still demanding access to the country to sell arms and rebuild and make profits behind the scenes in talks.

hm... just immagine, that a dozen less bombs, each costing $120, could have made the same situation.

It's not Europe's obligation to help the US clean up the mess it's created. However there are advantages for those countries to help out more.

true. rebuilding a country offers some potential markets

Post by **Pext** » Tue Feb 22, 2005 11:41 pm

concerning the bomb prices again: ...

relate them to what the US gave away after the tsunami. it was like three bombs.

Here's the main reason why Germany wants to abandon that weapons embargo so badly. We have a nuclear facility standing here that was originally intended to recycle uranium for power plants or some shit.
It was never used because the green party protested against it so much back then. Now it basically sits there, in Hanau.

Now China wants to buy it. And the green party is in power. You'd think that the greens wouldn't sell that thing if they think it's so dangerous, right? Wrong. They don't want to use it here, but they have absolutely no problem with selling it to China.
Technically, that facility falls under the weapons embargo, and that's why they wanna get rid of that.

It's not about "cleaning up someones mess" it merely shows they don't support emerging democracies.

Thanks for filling me in Splish.

Green party? What is their problem? Fission power plants supply clean energy and there are ways of disposing with the waste safely. Why do hippies hate nuclear power plants?

Chernobyl... please. That happened in a shithole communist cuntry.

I'm hoping high temperature superconductors allow countries to build fission power plants further away from population centers.

Post by **SplishSplash** » Wed Feb 23, 2005 1:04 am

REMEMBER THREE-MILE-ISLAND!!!!

Building them far away from population centers doesn't help much, because the fallout is indeed massive and spreads very far.
BUT:
There are plans for new nuclear plants who simply cannot meltdown. Yet Germany has vowed to close ALL nuclear power plants.
And because our conservative party keeps fucking up so much, the greens (along with the lefties) will stay in power and fuck us up even more.

Splish, safeties and redundancies should make meltdowns exceedingly rare. I'm not too worried about that. External attacks are probably a greater threat.

No offense, but did you read my post?

Yes, I'm simply re-stating what I think.

I don't have any blind faith in them supporting grand ideas or principals. Bush walked around the world, puffed his chest out, slapped some countries in the face for disagreeing with him, then turned a fairly developed country into a 3rd world cesspool with no electricity or clean water, and now wants to demand that these same countries help clean up the mess that they warned him he would have to begin with. And at the same time, he already has his chest puffed out for another war.

"Hey, come send some people to rebuild Iraq so I can pull our troops out and destroy three more countries!"

They aren't going to buy that shit, and I wouldn't either. It certainly doesn't mean I like the French.

No, that's Blair's job. He's the poop scooper.

And would these advantages have anything to do with the profits to be made by foreign investors from buying up Iraq's newly privatised industries & infrastructure, sacking most of the workforce then selling the Iraqis their own water and electricity at 10x the price they paid under Saddam?
