Iran Getting Closer....

It seems with each passing day Iran gets a little more brazen. The country is now touting that they have made a big breakthrough in their nuke development and while some are skeptical it still is a little scary. Why has Iran become so brave?

It seems the main reason for this announcement was to show that the sanctions the west has put on them aren’t working but why? Why would they want us to know that? Why would they want us to try and come up and find a better way to block them?

It would seem that Iran is trying to bait us into taking action, testing our resolve and seeing if we are really as tough as we would like others to believe.

This recent move forward are more modern centrifuges for their nuclear plants, which until recently were really, really crappy. We don’t know if Iran has really made any major advances or if this is all hot air but it certainly shows that they haven’t stopped trying to  get better nuclear power, so the question becomes what will the U. S. and our ally Israel do about it?

Certainly we could attack or shut down Iran’s oil exports but what would that do? Start a war 99.9% likely.  Iran has already threatened force should either the U.S. or Israel try to stop the oil. Should we start a war? It would most likely be between Israel and Iran more than the U.S. and Iran, but how much would we have to help Israel? Would they need just money or would they also need man power? Or would they need anything at all?

This is quickly becoming a heated subject and some have already guessed that war with Iran is just around the bend, some even speculate it might happen before the November election, though I doubt this highly, because Obama has not been highly supportive of Israel, but then again anything is possible. The fact of the matter is day by day Iran becomes a more serious enemy to the United States and at some point we will have to deal with that fact. Should we do it now before they actually have a bomb (we think) or should we wait until they are ready to bomb us all into ash?
