#1 NCRI is regarded as one of the most informed and effective Iranian opposition groups. It was recently responsible for revealing details of Iran's secret nuclear bomb programme, which led to the latest crisis in relations between Iran and the West.

According to the NCRI's latest report Iranian agents travel to Iraq dressed as local Arabs to spy on and film British and American patrols.

The report states that each reconnaissance group is formed of 20 members and, apart from monitoring the activities of coalition forces, they are also tasked with linking up with local Shia groups involved in the insurgency.

huuuum.

#5 i'm sad to say that it will never be time for a jadam or 10000 on Iran. As i've said before we in the west are being trodden and kicked all over by the Iranians but we wont do sht about it, face it as i have we have already lost against Iran,yes its sad but there you go. Europe has NO will to fight anyone even when there a few hundred k's from them like in the balkens, American forces pinned down at the mo, and not by the Iraqi terrorists but by our own people in the Media so that option is out the window. The more the world discusses and argues Iran the more the world will fracture and split itself on its stance toward Iran - they are laughing loud at us all im sure after watching us in the west argue for about a year and a half before finally getting no UN resolution against Iraq only to overthrow him but with about 2 years to plan for it the sammy regime knew we were coming 'fckin great' that. So now the Iranians are already at war with us as they have been since this Iraq conflict started and what have we done, nothing except give them MORE time to prepare, fckin great again,sighs, yeah give it another year and the west will be utterly and totally incapable of dealing with the Iranian regime, or look at it this way that already we are totally incapable already! Sad but true guys we are fcked with the Iranians. Do you think we have the balls to use the thermo nukes cos i sure don't, Imagine a coalition of say 15 countries, 1 says ok we've had enough we are rolling out the atom bomb on em, you think the other allies are gonna go along with it? i sure dont. You think the Anti war movement is gonna sit back and watch as we go to war with Iran - i sure don't and as sad as the Antiwar lot are they wern't far short of stopping us last time and this time the pressure from the Left wing antiwar loons will be 100 times stronger because they have the media firmly on thier side! I wish and i pray we got rid of the Iranian regime for the worlds sake but it ain't gonna happen.

#6 I don't know, Shep. The liberal elites, as they like to think of themselves and we like to call them, I have decided are just insecure well meaning people who hide behind fad and fashion just because they are cowards who live in fear of someone pointing out that they are not in with the in-crowd.

But as immediately following our 911, when they have something to really be scared about, they are the first to demand that the adults do something to make them safe. Then as soon as everything is back to normal, then they can get back to their sage rage against the machine.

I think the minute the Iranians actually do something brutal, they are going to be very surprised at the European response. As will we all.

#7 2b - "I think the minute the Iranians actually do something brutal, they are going to be very surprised at the European response. As will we all."

What will it take to convince the EUnuchs?Nukes in our cities? The Brits are already being blown up. So are we with 'new improved IEDs'. I believe that Shep is right.

#8 you may be right. Maybe I'm just wishful thinking. The biggest problem is that if Iran actually "wipes Israel off the map", they probably will just issue sternly worded letters of condemnation and say, well, it was their own fault.

I don't know. I just think that it's a mistake to fall into the trap of believing the incorrect assumptions put out by the MSM. AQ did. Sadaam did. Times have changed and don't fall into the trap of thinking that what is printed in the major papers represents the majority of thought of the country in which it is printed.

#9 The Iranians did something extremely brutal in November of 1979. The Iranians again did something brutal in October of 1983. And in response?
Anyone?

Bueller?
Bueller?

#10 i think a list only an Atom bomb from Iran would trip the west into actually taking action against the mullahs - but even when i think of that i can imagine all sorts of crappy little arguments from other western countries like ' how do we know it was Iran behind that A Bomb blast in Israel?' kinda like when binny and his gang flew the planes into the world trade centres - we had all sorts of weirdos for about a year claiming there was 'no proof' it was binny See my point if tehran was to truck a Nuke into Israel and detonate the mother of all car bombs something tells me we'd have a hard time convicing those on our own side who is behind it. Atomic terrorism is gonna be a reality in 5 or so years i think.

#11 Shep,
I do believe things with Iran will end in nuclear war. No one, including the US, is developing forces to invade Iran while Iran is forming multi-million men formations (regular and irregular). Once the first nuke goes off, restraint becomes a vice. Better to clear the deck and start over.

#12 sigh. Iran clearly doesn't understand our capabilities are restrained only by our humanity. Once they nuke anything, the gloves will come off and they won't fare well in the battle.

#13 Yes agreed if they did nuke us there would be hell to pay but what if they carry on down this same road of many small scale attacks against israel and coalition forces? i bet the result from us in the west would not alter, maybe a bit more covert ops against Iran but in the big picture of these i don't believe a few covert ops or few thousand covert ops for that matter will bother these Mullahs one little bit. They are not casualty adverse like us in the west, they will happily sacrifice hundreds of thousands of there fanatics without even a second thought, we on the other hand lose 5 men and the will to carry on is lost amongst the weak (leftyies and cowards) and the media pressure piles on immensly. They have the initiative in my eyes and are not gonna back away now. Think about the little stunt they pulled with the Royal Marines about a year ago in southern iraq, Iranians captured the Marines ,confiscated/stole their boats,carried out mock exicutions on them then freed them several days later, now in my eyes that was a direct act of war yet what happened - Jack Straw went grovaling to the Iranians full of apoligies and said in an almost Oliver Twist like manner ' please sir can we have our boats back please' . That was absolutly fckin useless and if i were in Jacks shoes i'd have said we will roll an armoured division in to get the Marines back or threaten them by parking a single trident submarine off thier coast. See my point, were frightened of the Iranians and until that changes we are fcked.

#15 The only thing that will frighten the MMs is killing a few of them. They are always happy to let others be killed. Kill a few of them and cut into the pile of loot they have stolen from the people of Iran and they will become more fearful.

#16 However gloomy it might be, this is one of the first sane discussions I've seen here about Iran's mullahs. Nobody is talking about a nuclear first-strike against Iran. Good, that's a clear sign of intelligence. Most everyone is talking about nuclear retaliation in kind should there be a terrorist nuclear attack. Also, good.

SPoD has it straight. Only when Tehran's mullahs find themselves in the crosshairs will their behavior change one whit. Personally, I do not anticipate changing their collective behavior. I would prefer that their collective body temperature be altered more towards ambient. A full session of the Majlis needs to be greeted with a volley of HE tipped cruise missiles. Mail gunsight video footage to North Korea, rinse and repeat.

At some point, people need to realize that critical projects, like fighting hunger, AIDS, illiteracy and abuse of women are of much greater importance than diplomatic charades with the greatest evil since the Nazis.

Islamist psychos are siphoning off bazillions of dollars in our foolhardy attempts to dissuade them from their goal of world domination. Enough of this idiocy. Psychotics, by definition, do not listen to reason. We must desist with trying to teach the pig to sing and set about eliminating (not deterring) these ridiculous impediments to world progress.

It is patently clear that Islamists seek to halt and reverse centuries of global progress. What better argument is there for simply eradicating this menace and returning to the real tasks at hand? Israel has already demonstrated to our world that there can be no appeasement or negotiation with terrorists.

It is upon us to recognize these hard-won truths and accept that our world will be a better place without the endless atrocities that hatemongering Islamists so adore.

#18 My pleasure, .com.

Between a select few decaps and some proficient wetwork teams the entire war on terrorism could be turned around in less than a year. Time's a'wasting.

#20 Iran has too much at risk. First, the second biggest religion in Iran is agnostic. That movement may be growing among their own painintheass left and eventually consume them. Then, there's the fact that we can take out their navy and airforce in a matter of hours. Finally, Israel will never hold still long enough for the mullahs to get the bomb fitted on a launcher.
Therefore, the fight will commence well before the mullahs have new linen in their country bunkers.
