War with Iran? Thousands of US troops deploying to Israel

[Romeo Delight]

Canada's got another ship headed down too....

Now Iran will back down for sure!!!

[VAiN]

Also, their banking buddies on Wall Street will make a lot of money off the war. Business as usual.

I'm pretty retarded when it comes to things like this, but how does wall street profit from war?

It's absolutely blatant now. The 3 most "threatening" nations to Israel and the US are all in a perfect row with vast oil reserves and a strategic location for getting it out to oil hungry China (via Afghanistan).

No more talk about North Korea? I guess that distraction wore out it's welcome. Thousands of people being murdered in central Africa each month? So, sorry. We have to defend little Israel with it's tiny supply of a few hundred nukes. Iran and it's one nuke that may or may not exist is going to blow ALL of us up! So, we have to blow them up first. That makes perfect sense.

How was Iraq a "problem" until we invaded, bombed it back 100 years, and occupied it?

Iran is only a "problem" because we allowed the oil industry to make it one.....

Iran hasn't started a war anywhere since the early 1700s even with an asshole mouthpiece doing anti US propaganda all the time as a way of maintaining power it's not going to start a suicidal war now against the US or Israel.

I'm surprised the military industrial complex didn't claim that the reason they have no electricity there was so that they can move their ultra advanced superkill robots about in the dark at night without anyone seeing them.

The military-industrial complex doesn't even need a reason that sounds sane anymore. If you use the words, "threat to Israel", "nuke" or "terrorists" - half of the country wants to go to war. They don't even need proof, they just want to see things on tv explode.

Cool.....

Dump enough Nickleback records on them and they'll surely surrender.

Or all of the unsold Chickenshit III records.

[BITEYOASS]

I think all the rich scumbags in this country need to donate half their assets if they want another war, seeing that we're up to our eyeballs in debt.

[Nitro Express]

The ones who start the wars never fight in them and they always have the political clout to keep their kids out of them. I think the next asshole that starts the next war needs to lead the charge themselves or I'm not impressed.

Military contracts my friend. Boeing, Halliburton, Lockheed Martin ect... They buy off the politicians and the politicians start wars and they all make lots of money. Without war, war contractors have no reason to exist so they create the need for themselves. Most of the stuff our military uses is made by corporations who are financed by Wall Street.

dude, don't be so overdramatic. obviously, the war planners know that north korea doesn't have the power, and that they're dark at night because a lack of infrastructure. don't assume the war hawks are that dumb that they'd believe or even try to convince people that north korea is somehow crazy advanced and therefore a danger.

but they also know that north korea's lack of power, infrastructure, water, food, medicine, sunlight, unicorns, and skinny leaders means that THEY'RE RIGHT ON THE BRINK AND COULD START A WAR AT ANY SECOND SINCE THEY'VE GOT NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE!!!! SO THEY'RE A HUGE DANGER!!!!!!!!

[Nitro Express]

Who has North Korea invaded since the end of the Korean war and then how many countries has the US invaded since then? North Korea just sits there in the dark.

[DRD]

We don't need another War. Old men start 'em and young men fight and die in them.

Fuck the records, let's dump that shit band on them... that would kill anybody off!
