Iran Rehearses for Third World War
The good news today is we've moved one step closer to World War III, as Iran has decided that it's time to start taunting the world with its rocket technology.
However, Iranian President Ahmadinejad is denying rumors that we're all gonna die horrible, fiery deaths…
The report comes less than a day after Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad dismissed fears that Israel and the United States could be preparing to attack his country, calling the possibility a "funny joke."
Hahahahahaha!
"I assure you that there won't be any war in the future," Ahmadinejad told a news conference Tuesday during a visit to Malaysia for a summit of developing Muslim nations.
You know what? I believe him. I think that in the future there won't be any war. Mostly likely because all the humans will be dead and replaced with super-intelligent highly-evolved squid people. And squid are so peacful. And delicious.

I agree 100% John. But Pres. Bush's stupidity always trumps reason.
While diplomacy with Iran may have its challenges, it should be pursued at every length. Iran has a conscription army and nearly 10 million eligible males between the ages of 18 and 32. Outside of a nuclear exchange, the United States can't possibly match that.
The United States needs to leave Iran with an honorable path of retreat (Colin Powell, The Craft of Diplomacy, 2004). The United States and the Bush administration have been threatening Iran for years with its foreign policy and its rhetoric.
“I believe President Bush is going to order air strikes (on Iran) before he leaves office”
-Norman Podhoretz (Lyons, 2007).
Bush and his cronies say they want peace and diplomacy, but the problem with the members of Bush administration is that you can’t trust them. You can’t take what they at face value. As former Nixon aide John W. Dean wrote, “George W. Bush and Richard B. Cheney have created the most secretive presidency of my lifetime. Their secrecy is far worse than during Watergate” (quoted in Wittkopf and Jones, 2008, 329).
The administration secretly planned and prepared for war with Iraq without disclosing it to the general public. Planning began in November of 2001 and included upgrading airfields in various Gulf countries, moving supplies to the region and the construction of necessary facilities. By April 2002, the planning and preparation for war was also being hidden from Congress. Bush had instructed General Tommy Franks not to make financial requests through Washington. “Anything you need, you’ll have.” The money would no longer be appropriated through congress. By the end of July 2002, Bush had approved more than thirty projects totaling over $700 million. Congress had no knowledge or involvement (Woodward, 2004, 122).
In December of 2002, Bush and Rumsfeld agreed to start secretly deploying troops into the theatre so as not to attract the attention of the press or the rest of the world. The first deployment order went out on December 6, 2002 and deployments continued every two weeks or so thereafter. Troops were given less than a week’s notice at times. In January 2003, the Bush administration arranged for much of its humanitarian relief to be disguised as general contributions to conceal its war planning from the NGO recipients. Yet, when asked about Iraq, Bush’s favorite response was “I have no war plans on my desk.” At one point or another after the planning began, nearly every member of the administration publicly denied any plans to go to war with Iraq (Woodward, 2004, 129).
A better approach to Iran would be negotiations. While Fareed Zakaria agrees that there is no reason not to use sanctions and embargoes against states such as Iran, he suggests that we also need to “allow a viable way out.” That is to say, we need to negotiate and not merely mandate.
I can't wait til americans, russians, chinese,iranians, koreans, and everybody else and their mother start WW3!
Living in a post apocalytic world is going to be fun(given that fallout doesn´t kill me before it ends)
Well, i think Iran might have done this for two reasons:
One, Israel just test flew several fighter jets in a formation that seems a lot like a test-run for an attack on Iran.
Two, Israel has nukes which can't be comfortable to be next to.
mmmm okay…. what the f*ck is this guy talking about?
Iran must stop self-defense, our President Bush has demanded; we will be better able to savage them as a weak nation. Iran ability to defend herself is a threat to Israel's dominance of the Middle East. Thanks to USA hardware and economic supports, Israel a nation of about 6 million has cowed all the regional Arab nations of over 100 million people. But, Persians are not Arabs. Maybe we should use Arabs, Turks and Indians against Iranians. We are already seeding turmoil among some of Iran’s minorities. We are doing great, we learned well from our great British and French colonial teachers.
