Canada, Irak and Iran 1

I will no say anything that has not been said before I guess. Still, what are we doing there? Let me guess the only plausible answer; we are there to please our Southern friend. So I'm just hoping that every time a Canadian gets killed, somebody explains that non sense to the relatives. That will not happen for sure.

Even if Iran was 2 times as bad as m. Bush said it is, why all that war propaganda at this moment? M. Harper could call him and ask him why? Iran is a country with 3 times the population of Iraq. That means that even if the U.S. would want to get rid of it, that's impossible without let's say 400,000 soldiers to spare. I don't imagine that you can nuke it; I really hope that it is not possible yet. So what? If you bomb Iran, the price of petroleum will go trough the roof and the geopolitical situation in Iraq will change dramatically for the worst. So if the U.S. have problem to control Iraq and Afghanistan why add another country to this list? I don’t know. Things that comes to my mind is more control on the vast petroleum reserve of Iraq and Ian and having the highest maximum price possible for petroleum right now, so beside oil companies, who wants that?


That situation could get more Canadian killed in Afghanistan as more U.S. troops could be needed in Iraq to control whatever happens if Iran goes to war. So please m. Harper, could you give a call to your friend and ask him to calm down.


I just read that, and as it confirm what I think I include it below

Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama said on Monday that harsh U.S. rhetoric toward Iran appeared to be contributing to the surge in oil prices and that a calmer approach might help soothe the markets.

"There are some geopolitical issues that affect the price of oil," he added. "So for us to ratchet down the rhetoric when it comes to Iran, for example, and engage in tough, principled diplomacy, as I've called for, might calm the markets down."
