No, I think it has to do with Syria, from the looks of things. Last time I checked, Iran is not the same country as Syria, but I could be wrong. In any case, the major "opponent" of the US in the Syrian Civil War is Russia, but we are clearly not going to go to war with them over this one country.

They have a mutual defense treaty.  The US has been unsuccessful at provoking Iran, so they are trying to start a proxy war through Syria.

Holy shit! Some one who isn't brain dead!

Quote from: Mohammad Ali Assoudi
"If America were to attack Syria, Iran along with Syria's allies will take action, which would amount to a fiasco for America,"

Quote from: Reuters
Assoudi's comments were first carried by the government-linked news agency Young Journalists' Club but were later apparently taken down from the group's website.

Quote from: Reuters
Iran and Syria signed a mutual defense pact in 2006, but little is known of its details, or whether there are any other signatories.

Sounds like a bunch of hot air coming from Iran. This "mutual defense pact" obviously hasn't seen much use, as Hamas has been attacking Assad yet it still receives Iranian funding. In any case, I doubt that Iran would be so foolish as to attack the US troops if Syria was invaded. They wouldn't stand a chance, and it would give Israel an excuse to crack down on neighboring Arab countries.

However, as far as I know the US government has no intentions to send actual troops in, so I don't see how Iran could be provoked into a war. I also don't see the point in going to war with Iran anyways, since whichever politicians advocated it would be committing political suicide.

I don't know what America's going to do, but it's certainly not going to sit on the world's most expensive military and do nothing while its dollar collapses.  Germany may not have been successful back then, but I doubt that'll stop a government as desperate as this one.

But CNN says I should be paying attention to OJ Simpson and a pot farm in Northern Cali...

Me so confoozled

Huh


When the government is ready to attack Iran, CNN will tell you how evil the leader of Iran is and how you may die at any moment if he is not taken care of.

Why was this bumped? Clearly OP was wrong...

You are right, why have a clearly decent discussion when we can spend time being right!

What discussion is there to have, at least on this thread? Clearly there was no invasion, and I still think that there won't be. Why did you choose to necro it two years after it was started anyways? If you have new evidence, why bump this as opposed to making a new thread?

You are so right! Certainly nothing related to discuss...

Is Iran invasion still "just around the corner"?

How does it feel to live in fear? That's what it's like to be a slave.

Unconfirmed Reports of Major Sabotage Attack on Iran’s Fordow Facility http://news.antiwar.com/2013/01/27/unconfirmed-reports-of-major-sabotage-attack-on-irans-fordow-facility/

*edit: fixed malformed url

Anyway, your prediction one year ago had not happened.

Does the list of assassinated Iranian scientists count as an attack? What about the magical exploding nuclear facilities? Exploding generals? When does this officially become an attack?

At least President should come out and announce some operation,otherwise, this kind of hostility has always been ON, it is never been OFF, count this as invasion is exaggerating.

(Just my opinion)

no it's bullshit if there was a covert op. to sabotage these places Iran would respond.

That the defense min. would say that it would be "good news" really shows they are not messing about.  They would retaliate no fuckin doubt. And they would retaliate because it would be self defense, self preservation. So attacking Iran AhAh - not a good idea.
