#1 Bot's fellow country men are being killed by muslims on the streets in Holland. He has no clue for what the hell the EU is dealing with in Iran. Demonstrastions where "death to america" is the prominent feature accompanied by talk about nuclear development and missle tests are the kind of thing that will assure the US never "asks" before it attacks.

The Bots own people are already under attack at home. The Dutch governments response to attacks and threats is to send more cops to protect mosques. This guy Bot and the ruling elites of the EU are clueless. Iran is going to eat them for lunch and the EU will lay their and die.

My dutch friend and I chatted again last night. He is "liberal" but he is ready to burn these arse holes out. He says you can't even go out for a drink in his small town without some muslim wanting to have a fight with you or giving you some kind of crap.(I thought they didn't drink?) His ex girl friend was raped by a "north african," coworkers have been attacked and hospitalized by "muslims gangs." Some crazy turban showed up at his Mom's school and shot some folks. He is going for an "illegal" firearm for self protection. He and his pals are all voting for Wilders. The average Dutchman has had it with the "imigrants" who are not assimilating and expecting that dutch society adapt to them.

One can hope Putin will come to his senses and explain to Terhan that if a nuclear device should happen to go off in the mideast Terhan can expect Russia to nuke Iran until the rubble is like fine flour except made of glass. This will get the terrorist state turbans attention. They will get no warning from us I hope. I hope we just act. Since most of europe doesn't have a clue and is fed nothing but anti american propaganda by the MSM why should we even care what they think. Our future is not in europe it's in the pacific and with China and India. Old Europe is stagnat protectionist and ossified.

#2 Civilizations age and die, just like individuals do.

#4 What were they going to strike with?

Perhaps a disabling blow from a harshly worded resolution followed by waves of carefully nuanced irony with maybe a diplomatic snub or two thrown in for good measure.

MarkE is correct that the EU will do nothing because a) it will be someone else's problem first and b) those someones, either Israel or the US, will take action even if the EU simply stands around jawing about the problem.

#5 They haven't quite got up the nerve to pull out the ultimate weapon: the Frown of ConcernÂ®.

EU presidency rejects military strikes on Iran

Works for me.

The pussies in the EU don't have anything to strike Iran with anyway.

Except maybe a soccer ball.

Yeah, like that'll work.

#7 Just for the hell of it, put a resolution before the EU which authorizes Iranian nuclear strikes on Europe.
I wonder if it would pass?

#8 Hear, hear, tu3031! Or make it clear to the Iranians that we won't target them if they would re aim their missiles to the EU distance limits!
