WASHINGTON — A former CIA director says military action against Iran now seems more likely because no matter what the U.S. does diplomatically, Tehran keeps pushing ahead with its suspected nuclear program. Michael Hayden, a CIA chief under President George W. Bush, says that during his tenure a strike was "way down the list" of options. But he tells CNN's "State of the Union" that such action now "seems inexorable." He predicts Iran will build its program to the point where it's just below having an actual weapon. Hayden says that would be as destabilizing to the region as the real thing. U.S. officials have said military action remains an option if sanctions fail to deter Iran. Iran says its nuclear work is for peaceful purposes such as power generation. www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/07/25/us-iran-military-strike-likely_n_658522.htmlSo yay, another war. Can't we just pull a 1950's again and take out the Ayatollah and Ahmadinejad instead of a ground war?

Great. We're gonna get nuked. Iran's missiles can only reach Israel, so we don't have to worry about being attacked by them here. We do however have to worry about Israel nuking Iran.

How far is it from Iran to the US? They have a Fajr-3 Missile, it reaches 2500 KM, yet I think theirs actually reaches 1000KM? Not sure on the distant. Also got a Ghadr-110, that reaches 3000 KM.

Israel would destroy all nuclear sites the Iranians have, they wouldn't be able to launch a nuclear strike on Israel, because they wouldn't have any left. Israel would make Iran a wasteland, killing everyone in the country. Russia or China might be mad, but I don't think they'd attempt to attack Israel, because they know we are behind them, but we do owe China a lot of money, so we can't afford to go to war with them, because they can just call in the debt and we are ed. Syria could be mad, but Israel would happily nuke them as well.

Ive always said that no matter what China would never put a serious attack on us because we make that country go around. Seriously, look around, pick something up....anything....Where was it made?

I am conflicted.
I do not want to go to war with Iran. However I do not want them to have nuclear weapons either.
