At the very least, he's always entertaining. Sometimes I wonder if he does things like set up an entire summit with a funny name as if to say "I can have a summit too". I'm interested in the bolded piece. Is that possible? Practical?
The US will never allow other countries to which it is not a part to dictate terms on its nuclear arsenal.
Looks like Ahmadinejad is just Saddam with better timing. Talking mess, he just knows the US can't/won't really do anything about it. And I guess it's one of the few ways he can shore up domestic support.
Except iraq is so screwed up only a guy like saddam could keep it from going to hell. I think iran would be better off.
Such domestic support as he has, him and the theocracy. In my opinion, it is the support of a minority of the country. The reason he's still in power rests with the theocrats, the thugs that do their heavy lifting and, more to the point, since we're talking "support," the disqualification of huge numbers of candidates for parliament. That insures the opposition is in disarray, is bereft of many of their best candidates, and allows the theocratic/far-right radical backers of the regime to retain power despite being a minority. Another benefit, besides "winning" a fraud of an election, is that the powers considering taking out their atomic weapons program know that the opposition, in the main, will support the regime if the country is attacked. At least for a while. Just see "Falklands/Argentina/Junta."
Give Saudi Arabia and Iran some nuclear weapons, move the Palestinians from Gaza-West Bank and spread them into regional Muslim countries, setup UN bases across the world and send everyone else back to their home countries. Voila, we have world peace!
there will never be world peace, everyone is mad at israel and they will continue to be mad the longer we actively support them, you can't spread them around, they want a home country, they want their OWN country, thats why there is so much violence
There are some very powerful forces that want to see the West Bank in the hands of Israel, so for the sake of peace why not let it happen. The Palestinians will never have their own country.....forcing them out is the only way....it'll save a lot of bloodshed in the long run...
It will never happen. It's about as likely as the Palestinians overrunning Israel and ejecting all the Jews "from the river to the sea". People in Bosnia and Serbia have been revisiting similar 1500 year old land disputes at every opportunity non-stop for more than a millennium. Maybe we should build a giant cage around Jerusalem and say that everybody who wants to fight can enter and fight to defeat "the other side". It would be the ultimate death cage match. Haredi vs. Wahhabi to the death. Maybe we could throw in a couple of nuclear weapons and instruct anybody who wants to use them how to detonate them. And when they've all killed each other, the people who weren't willing to climb in can meet together and negotiate a solution like rational human beings, and nobody will want to fight over the right to live in a Strontium 90 and Cesium 137 coated radioactive wasteland like Jerusalem (and if they do, they won't be around very long).
Those figures on the West Bank are wrong, almost double from the true numbers. Good job picking that site Otto https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/we.html
This is all reasonably understandable, because of course they must first properly organize the ghettos before they will go about liquidating them. I heard that every Palestinian will be receiving a unique letter-coded tattoo on their forearm, as the Israeli govt didn't want to give them the satisfaction of having a tattoo in regular numbers (also known as arabic numerals)
That is a standard reference site. You will find a whole range of numbers if you look. The CIA number is far on the low end of the estimates that I can find with a concerted search. For instance, the World Bank puts it at 3.8 million. In any case, all the sources that I can find seem to agree that the population is growing pretty steadily. But lets use your numbers. If the Israelis initiated a plan take all 2.8 million and kill them or throw them over the border, that is a pretty time-consuming process and Syria, Iran, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Jordan would all have found the one thing they could agree on and would team up and lay the smack down before it could occur. And if the reverse happened, the USA would do the same.
