[silko]

HA... in your face suckers i dont care!

but the gas is kind of expencive compared to Arab countries

Well the oil market does not completely rely on Iranian oil so Oil's price multiplying with x10 with its current price is ridiculous to even think like that.

But still the prices of Oil in Norway are very expensive. For one litre of oil in Norway, you can refill your car in Arab countries

lol of course not
but what you don't seem to know is that 4/10th of the world's oil passes through the straight of Hormoz which is only 50 smtg kms across. You don't even need a navy to close that baby off. Just launch anti ship against anything that passes and within a day or two all insurance companies will stop covering ocean liners in the area. When that happens no ship owner will allow their lively hood to move a cm without coverage.

Actually Americans blame their lives going to $hit on wars. Any president that starts a war will be eaten alive by the people. So from Israeli statements you can see there will be no attack on Iran from them since they are talking about so openly. The Americans wont because no president want to be remembered as the person who killed the USA because the USA economy can not sustain any war especially with Iran which is a tougher opponent than the ones they fought in the past 30 years.

So right now the US is doing its best to ruin relations between Saudi Arabia and the USA because they will only go to war if Saudi Arabia agrees to pay the bill and that is something we will never do. all this ambassador thing and all this Wikileaks crap is just for that to ruin relations to the point of a war which will be paid by our money. Something we are refusing very hardly.

Most americans blame the politicians and banks for the present economic trouble. And while the wars have cost a nice chunk of change. It is the social entitlement programs and predatory financial practices that have cuased the most trouble. Most Americans support a strike on Iran.

I could also bring my own polls that show the opposite. I think Americans everywhere are sick and tired of fighting Israeli's wars, this is the general sentiment in the American public and even in academic circles.

Good intel is one thing but being able to do something about it is another. The newest threat from Israel is by ballistic missiles which Iran actually do not have any defenses against it at all. The only thing that could have helped Iran was either Antey-2500 system or the S-300 PMU2 which Iran does not have and Russia never even offered it to Iran. Even with those systems Iran needed to have dozens of them to be able to intercept ballistic missiles since Iran is a huge country. The five older S-300 PMU1 which were offered to Iran did not have anti-ballistic missile capability so basically Iran is defenseless when it comes to ballistic missiles just like it was during Iran-Iraq war when Saddam used to hit Iran by Scud-c rockets. Even if Iranian Bavar-373 is built to have some sort of anti-ballistic missile capability still it would be years before Iran would be able to make dozens of them to protect all the sites and cities in Iran.

Actually I believe that even if Russia had provided Iran with S300-PMU1 that couldn't have helped Iran in case of a long war. Iran might be in possession of other versions of S300 though, through Belarus and Croatia seemingly. 5 battalions of S300-PMU1 wouldn't prevent the USA from bombing Iran's infrastructure to years ago, but that would've provided a good air cover to keep our atomic infrastructure safe.

Actually Saddam was another story. We ain't gonna face Scud-B and Scud-C missiles from 1980's, We're going to face missiles like Jericho. I agree with you but that's not what I meant. I was mostly talking about deterring 'a surprise attack'. Iran won't be surprised because it has its own radars installed in Syria that can act as pre-warning radars and also Iran is one of the few countries in the region that has a well-functioning intelligence agency and can gather intel. in the region if She wants.

Iran's policy is deterrence and for that policy, Iran has created a formidable anti-symmetric capability that can destabilize the region. There's no doubt that if a war with the USA happens (or with Israel, because the US will be dragged in) Iran will sustain damages, but the consequences are what need to be considered carefully before attacking Iran.

Wouldn't Iran want to keep selling its oil. It would surely need more money to sustain any kind of war.

I know about 60 Americans (MMOs) and they ALL say no we are done with wars we want our jobs back. and when you say politicians they blame them because they started unnecessary wars.

Desert Storm and the no fly zone afterwards bills were on KSA and it brought us nothing but misery. You know from 91 to 04 Saudis lived in absolute poverty sort to speak compared to now. Hell even mobile phones were considered something that only rich people are allowed to have forget about Internet and such things and why is that?? Because the US put the war bill on us and made our country bankrupt.

But now we are free from giving any money to the US infact USA owed US some 500 Billion Dollars now so you can see the situation you put yourself in because of these unnecessary wars. Finally Saudi Arabia can develop again and build itself no thanks to you. Finally we have even good school buildings and colleges instead of ones with only half electricity finally we can actually live a decent life with US choking and milking our economy like it used to. So if you think by scaring Saudi Arabia you can get it to pay the bill of another war you are mistaken we learned our lesson and we learned it well.
