Yep the sanctions are coming fast and furious nowadays, despite most of the world completely ignoring them. The powers that be are getting mighty frustrated, but it looks like Russia is talking tough on America now. Just yesterday, Russia said it might blow up American missle sites pointed at Iran. The president of Russia has said those missle sites are a threat to Russia itself.....that kind of talk wasn't heard before, so even Russia is noticing something is up.

Russia considers the plans for missile shields in Europe, including in Romania and Poland, to be a threat to its nuclear forces, but the Obama administration insists they are meant to fend off a potential threat from Iran.
Moscow has agreed to consider NATO's proposal last fall to cooperate on the missile shield, but the talks have been deadlocked over how the system should operate. Russia has insisted that the system should be run jointly, which NATO has rejected.
Medvedev also warned that Moscow may opt out of the New START arms control deal with the United States and halt other arms control talks if the U.S. proceeds. The Americans had hoped that the treaty would stimulate progress further ambitious arms control efforts, but such talks have stalled over tension on the missile plans.
"The United States and its NATO partners as of now aren't going to take our concerns about the European missile defense into account," a stern Medvedev said, adding that if the alliance continues to "stonewall" Russia it will take retaliatory action." -
It looks like Russia is willing to protect Iran from America. Maybe Jank is right, maybe nothing will pop off. A war against Iran with Russia and possibly China getting involved (due to important gasoline exports) is SO not worth it. As much as I criticize Obama, I give him some credit for showing some restraint. Let's see how long that lasts. Cuz under a Republican president, I don't know how much restraint would be shown, based on the comical GOP debates from Tuesday

I know it's wishfull thinking....but still, nobody expected the revolutions to take place in the first place...kingblaze84 wrote: »I certainly hope the day occurs when American opinion overwhelmingly turns against Israel.kingblaze84 wrote: »Maybe Jank is rightkingblaze84 wrote: »A war against Iran with Russia and possibly China getting involved (due to important gasoline exports) is SO not worth it.
