Last week the International Atomic Energy Agency released its report on the Iranian nuclear program. The report exposed Iranians plans to militarize their nuclear program despite their claims that it was for energy production and medical use only.
This claim isnt far fetch. Because of Irans lack of crude oil refining capability approximately 30 percent of the petroleum products it needs must be imported.
Sanctions
If the United States and/or our Allies wish to demand that Iran answer for its nuclear program or face economic sanctions they will be thwarted in the U.N, by Russia and China. Iran will be allowed to continue nuclear weapons program with impunity. The UN will do nothing more than discuss diplomatic responses over a three martini lunch. This leaves the western nations with two options. Do nothing or take out Irans nuclear sites.
Failing to act sooner rather than later will mean the world will have to deal with a nuclear Islamic republic with big ambitions.
Past History
Irans long game plan is to control the oil flow in the Persian Gulf by shutting down the Straits of Hormuz and crippling the capabilities of the US Navys Fifth Fleet located in Bahrain.

All we have to do is drill here in the USA. When the price of oil drops below $75 a barrel, Iran will have an economic break down and that disaster will put a monkey wrench in their machinery.
The Current FReepathon Pays For The Current Quarters Expenses?
Now we just need an administration willing to tell Iranian President IWannMakeJihad to open all sites up to US investigation and dismantling of weapons sites, or else we will dismantle them outselves.
Ahmedinajad and Ruhollah Khomeini...
I have never laid any claim to being smart.
If Iran has a problem lack of refining capability for their petroleum products , wouldn’t it make sense to build a fuel refinery, instead of building the equipment it takes to refine nuclear products to weapons grade?
I am pretty sure a fuel refinery would be cheaper.
I believe that Iran wish’s to become a world power, and if their bomb cannot do that for them through bluff, they are suicidal enough to use it for real.
Heads Up Coach,
Our only friend in the Middle East is self serving and arrogant. Ask these guys about our only friends in the Middle East!
