The question presupposes it's our unilaterial choice. I'm sure none of us want a war with anyone but I think you have your question worded wrong; try "Do we lite Iran up before or after they nuke us? Or do we just pray for 'peace in our time' and wait until after they get both Israel AND us?"
Like Germany in '36, it's not like the Persians have never mentioned their determined goals. So, do we have the political brains to read the signs? And do we have the gonads to do something about it? (Yeah, both questions are retorical, I haven't for a moment forgotten who our POTUS is.)

No.
Remember, it is ok for Pakistan, India, Israel and North Korea to have them, just not Iran.

This my emotional response, too. My reality side says that it isn't up to me or our government, it's up to the Iranians and their proxies. I don't think we should provoke a war, but we damned well better not turn one down if they bring it to us. Ed

I don't remember that at all. But you must have been asleep for the last ten years if you don't see the difference in Iran having nukes...they've promised to use them and I believe they mean it. So do their assorted Arab neighbors, et al.

America should go to war with the black man in The White House.

No war at the moment , but the next time they [bleep] with one of our carrier with their Little Bass Boats, then we should sink them on the spot . I do believe the Nuke Reactors they are building should be destroyed, sooner than later .

Lets see what happens in France since they sunk the Iran nuke talks, that may be an indication of whether we will be forced into a war with Iran at some point.

Do you mean war as in WWII war or the half azzed military actions we have bled and paid for since then? By the way, we owe them one.

I like Ingwe's fence. I'm sick and tired of fighting these [bleep] one year, giving em money for the next fifty, and then fighting em again.
I remember when we got our first TV. First thing on the news was "unrest in the middle east". That chit over there ain't never gonna change.
Close all the embasey's, pull all aid, and tell em that if they think they live in a desert now, kill one more [bleep] American and you'll see what a wasteland really looks like. I'll second that. I've been saying this for years.

If Iran decides to nuke Israel and/or the U.S. they will cease to exist.
