Iran is complicating the 21st century
Haaretz / Amir Oren
30-Aug-2009 (12 comments)

Wald testified before Congress: "Sitting in the heart of the Middle East is the greatest strategic challenge facing the United States at the dawn of a new century: the regime in Tehran." Wald said that the reason is its nuclear project, but not only that: Iran's unpredictable regime, which threatens the oil sources in the Gulf, obliges the United States to reduce its dependence on petroleum. Wald's solution, like that of the officer who was his counterpart in the IDF, former deputy chief of staff Moshe Kaplinsky, is electric cars.

Yep

You have to "get the last word in", even if you can't think of anything to say. Just like a 12 year old. Have fun with that, I'm done with this thread.


Shah Ghollam

You are

by Shah Ghollam on

just as you explained yourself to be here:

The only thing worse than an idiot is somebody is an idiot who thinks he is smarter than everyone else.

You may think you are smarter than a 12 year old, but that is just your idiocity!


ex programmer craig

12?

by ex programmer craig on

Is that your age? Or maybe younger? That comeback was sooooo lame.  If that's all you had, why even bother? You could have just acted like you never came back to this post, eh?


Shah Ghollam

You put yourself into proper words finally!

Enough

How bizzare than there is still people like you...

Do you even realize that you accuse everyone who disagrees with you of being an inferior human being? I can't believe I've wasted as much time as I have with you. The only thing worse than an idiot is somebody is an idiot who thinks he is smarter than everyone else.

You bet!

Really? ME history according to who? An IRI stooge? You probably deny that Iran has been interfering in Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and Palestine right? And you want to tell me about history? lol.

 You bet you need to be taught about history especially in ME history! You make a joke out of "logic". How bizzare than there is still people like you that even deny the living history let alone anything beyond.

In case you did not notice, US has invaded Iraq and Afghanestan outright, US has bases in almost all countries in the southern Persian Gulf and suroggate bases in Jordan, Egypt, Tunisia and Morocco. Israel has invaded and aoccupied lebanon, Has occupied Palestine (against all UN resolutions) and Iran is the country to blame. What a joke! No wonder it is said "arrogance knows no limit"!

As for Iran "interference" in Syria, Lebanon and Palestine on part of its hegemony, well, let's say you just defined a new meaning for the term "Hegemony"!

Be it a stooge of IRI or a highschool kid, consider it a great favor to you if anyone teaches you anything about history. But with a talent such as yours, cement wall would make a better pupil!

ex-programmer: Shah Gholam

by vildemose on

ex-programmer: Shah Gholam illustrates the mind set of the Iranian leadership. He is just parroting what he's programmed to say and do.

I hope that the State Department has psycholgical profiles of these people, which easily prove how unpredictable, vengeaful, and highly detached from realties of the world they are. This is another reason why they should never get the nukes.

We live in very dangerous times, indeed.

The statement is completely to the point, per your provided definition above, specially taking the post WWII US and Israeli efforts in the ME region.

Oh, so you are talking only about the middle-east, eh? Well, I have some news for you that may be shocking but after WWII the US only had significant influence in ONE country in the ME... and that country was Iran. It was teh Europeans who were active in the Arab ME. As for Israel, the US became an ally of Israel in 1973.  In both cases, the reasons behind US interference were based on countering the Soviet Union during the Cold War. So, you are still wrong even when you limityour claims to the ME. And furthermore, it is Iran that is currently ttrying to establish hegemony in the ME, and it is the US which is attempting to counter that. So not only are you wrong, you have itexactly backwards.

Your "doubts" are indeed naivite! Time to read ME modern
history!!!!

hegemony 

1 : preponderant influence or authority over others : domination <battled for hegemony in Asia>
2 : the social, cultural, ideological, or economic influence exerted by a dominant group

Shah Gholam: Do you know

by vildemose on

Shah Gholam: Do you know that the entire Iran's economy with their oil is as big as the state of Connecticut in the US. I think you militant islamist suffer from delusional dremas of grandeur.

The hubris will eventually get you nothing but death and destruction and if you think there are not people who are willing to oblige, you will be sadly mistaken.

You want war, they will give it you. Shame on you for shilling for the IRI.

//www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/hegemony

The idea that Israel is attempting to assert "hegemony" over anyone is absurd. The idea that Iran is the primary spoiler for US hegemony worldwide is absurd... when did Iran displace Russia, China, India, etc for that status? Do you even take yourself seriously when you say such things?
