All right. Let's put a stop to the "emo" nature of live journals. Let's discuss some current events.
Iran's current president is a hardcore fundmentalist who is trully aiming to become a nuclear power. There's only 7 countries on Earth that have declared nuclear weapons. Pretty soon, it'll be nine with North Korea and Iran if they succeed.
Blame it on the Chinese. They supplied the technology for Pakistan to obtain their nukes, and they helped the Iranians out too. But, even China and Russia are supporting the UN in putting a stop to the uranium enrichment procedures. However, the UN "frog-leap approach" is too slow. According to Israel, the Iranians may be only a year or two away from obtaining a bomb. Therefore, Eurasia is seriously concerned. The Iranians have ballistic missiles that can strike as far as Italy and parts of France (damn the Ukarianians for selling those advanced missiles). The day they obtain those war heads and fit them onto their ballistic missiles, the world's screwed. Guess where the missiles will hit? The new president constantly calls for "the complete destruction of Israel".
The Israellis are seriously concerned. Israel is an undeclared nuclear power, and have the best air force in the world in terms of skills. To counter the Iranian threat, they've recently acquired two advanced subs from Germany with nuclear cruise missile capabilities. The Germans have always made the best subs, and we can except both Israel and Iran to be wiped off the face of the Earth the moment Iran fires its first nuke. MAD policies does not work for Iran, as the allyatolahs and the president are mad.
To stall Iran's quest for nukes, Israel is proposing a massive air strike against Iran's nuclear facilities. However, the combat radius of Isreal's most combat-capable aircrafts are exactly half the distance to Iran. Therfore, they can get there but can't get back. Israel's five ancient fuel tankers cannot refuel the hundreds of aircraft that would need to be involved. Too bad the Isrealis do not have aircraft carriers. No matter what, Israel will ahve a hard time. The Iranians learned from Saddam's mistakes. All of their nuclear facilities are buired deep under ground. Fortunate, the Isrealis have more than 100 American bunker-blaster bombs. They are confident that they can "cripple" the Iranians, but they may loose many aircraft and men. Iran's new Mig 29 Falcums are a match for anything the West has to throw at them.
What should we do? Should we launch our own airstrikes against Iran using stealth, or whould we continue our tradition of supplying Isreal with all the weapons they want? Should we lend-lease an aircrat carrier to Israel?
What do you guys think about the situation?
