perhaps we need to send a few shots toward north korea to remind them that we're still here and we dont take kindly to them selling warheads to Iran :wavey:

I was reading that also.
If Israel initiates an attack i wouldnt be surprised if the U.S follows.

hypothetically speaking, who else would probably jump in for either side? does iran have any "allies" that wouldnt mind trying to go up against israel/U.S or whoever else?

im not sure if people would really pick sides, Isreal tends to shoot first ask questions later (can you really blame them?) which always draws lots of international/UN critisism. But thats just how they roll. The US would support them, but im not sure if they would really jump into it. I think Iraq will have really left a bad taste most americans mouths and we will probably be very reluctant to jump back into the middle east.

not france or sweden, they will both spectate.

iran will have the support of anybody with inherant hate for the US. so, large bands of terrorists from throughout the world will surface to back Iran. I dont think the sides would be very even in that matchup. US is worlds ahead of Iran in warfare technology, economic means, etc so if it was Isreal + USA + anybody, Iran is fucked.

Yes, because majoring in geology is where the money is at
