Deal with it, who, Iran. This seams to be the one thing we don't want to do. Iran has ratcheted up the bad behavior for 20 years now, with Lebanon now a joke as a soveriegn nation, building a massive terrorist force on Israel's northern border. Attacking Israel directly, yes directly Hezbolah is Iran. Now it's Hamas in Gaza, next Venezuela with Chavez. All we have done for the last number of years is talk talk talk and talk somemore, while things keep getting worse. Iran is stalling at every turn and the Liberals think a breakthrough is just round the corner. They are not going to launch missiles at the USA, the will just sail nukes into a US port, ship them over our jke of a border and set them off. When they do they will be sitting on the International terorrist wall of shame grinning at saying you have no proof we did this. All our socialist allies and liberal democrats, snicker, will be telling us not to over react but to be thought full. Our just keeping talking is digging a deeper hole for ourselves, do we wait for proof of their intentions like when a nuke goes off in a major US city?

Two of the most eventful years in the history and growth of the civilized world, were732 AD and 1683 AD. The events of these two years were forced upon the emerging civilized world by a horde of loonatic religeous Islamist thugs. We are almost their again it is time to wake up!
