Son, Iran is not rabid wrt to Israel, but they are, reasonably, anti-Jewish-Israel.
Your opinion is that anti-Israel is anti-semitic and rabid, and Jewish Israel
can do no wrong...i.e. you are a rabid and blind supporter of Jewish Israel war.

Son, it is not the test ban treaty, but Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
When the U.S. puppet dictator Shah of Iran was overthrown the new government
agreed to continue honoring the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, which
they did at least up until the war threating rhetoric sharply increased
after 9/11, and the war rhetoric has been non-stop ever since (a clamor
for revenge for daring to overthrow our dictator (they have oil), and
because Iran is anti-Jewish-Israel). Under that treaty, *every* country is
allowed to develop nuclear technology for peaceful purposes (e.g. medicine or
nuclear ship power) which Iran should, and has every right to, pursue. Iranian
resistance arose when *unreasonable* inspection demands were made, amounting
to spying (on military and internal political fronts), and when the U.S.
bullying war rhetoric escalated.
The U.S. has *proven* that the only defense against it is nuclear weapons, and
until the U.S. gives up its bullying war rhetoric or its own presumed right
to preemptive war, IMHO, *every* nation *should* pursue nuclear war technology.

Better yet, let the U.S. stop building nuclear weapons and stop all

There's no reason we should have to wait for them to attack, they've
made their intentions clear with their words and actions. Between
the long running Iranian Hate campaigns, and their massive support of
international terrorism, we have every right to assume they'll use
a nuke the minute they get one, or give it to someone that will.
And it's their fault the west believes that, they've gone out of
their way to make us believe that.

Baby-milk?
The Iranians are making the same mistakes Saddam made.
A closed society will always cause the west to assume the worst case.
It would be irresponsible not to. And they think mass weapons will keep
us at bay, when i n f a c t it does exactly the opposite.
They think the N Korean example will work for them too.
But that example only makes sure the west acts ...before
another N Korea is created.
Let me just remind you that ...in the end, America will always win.
It's simple math, the nation that's closest to freedom and democracy
will rise to the top. And the ones farthest away, like Iran, are destined
to go out in a horrific blaze of glory. And soon!
For the next generation or two, America will remain
more dominant militarily than ever before, and its going
to be America's ...Golden Age!

respond that he would like to see, as do I, Jewish Israel off the maps (as

army is being slaughtered on the ground in Afghanistan by a bunch of
mountain men armed with AKMs and a few donkeys and who own a tea pot,
a kettle and a handful of rice per section...
Killing someone to order is easy, killing the right person requires
good intelligence as well as precise targeting.
The main problem at the moment in Pakistan is that the US drones are
slaughtering elderly ladies and their grandchildren who happen to be
next door to the Taliban 'O Group' in the next house...
Now the death of poor old Aunt Fatima is a tragedy that affects me not
one jot. I rather like the idea of the USA bombing the NWF to make
the local Pathans keep their collective heads down, and I don't pay US
taxes anyway.
But it isn't a strategy that'll lead to victory, nor will it lead to

military's reliance of ranged attack is much more older that you surmise.
Another aspect of anti-CVN tactics is that a CVN alone isn't
self-sufficient (can actually be, but sacrificing a sizable chunk the
attack power) and aiming to the escorts (CGs, DDGs &c.) is effective as
mission-kill method, whose also is outside your quoted US nuclear
retaliation doctrine.
Also, losses of escorts w/o losses of CVNs effectively reduces the
number of CVBG (granted, with double or even treble the airpower, but
NOT the same global capabilities) whose are more important that the CVN
itself (the proverbial US prez quote, "where is the nearest carrier",
and less, albeit more powerful CVBGs raise the risk that the nearest
carrier is dangerously not so nearer...)
and the escort ships must cover also the role proper of cruising ships
that they actually are (flag-showing, ocean patrolling, diplomatic
support NGF and the classical AsuW role &c.), so USN actually need
*much* more CGs and DDGs...

too-well-known excessive fragmentation and lack of cooperation between
intel services there's an overflow of data-gathering whose led to the
proverbial "needle in haystack" (and finding the needle *IS* the
starting point for effective intelligence effort)

If there's someone I don't miss, is that 1944-5 USN was truly Master of
all Seas, with *scores* of crusers and *hundreds* of destroyers, and if
one of those around Okinawa gets sunk or crippled by Kamikazes, three or
four was ready to close the hole in the screen, but today, what happens

Until the Battle of the Philippine Sea in June of 1944 both sides were
roughly equal, on paper at least, and Japan felt confident enough to
attack the Leyte landing with surface forces in October 1944.

nuclear warmaking curbs, to allow them to develop whatever nuclear
weapon technology they desire WITHOUT ANY CONCERN OR COMPLAINT (and
we know Jewish Israel possesses nuclear weapons and has nuclear weapons
development programs ongoing right now).
In summary, you think the "appropriate penalty" for Jewish Israel is to do nothing.

An average of 1 (one) US military death per day isn't exactly a slaughter.

Let's hope that all future wars have daily causality rates you can count on
o n e h a n d.
But maybe you should ask the Soviets what slaughter means, they
had 15,000 soldiers killed in Afghan in less time.

We're not going to leave until we have victory and peace.
Come to think of it, I think Iran is the only country in
the Middle East where US troops don't have a base.
Looking at the map of our forces in the region below, I think
we can handle whatever is needed for the foreseeable future.

Pakistan is run by small interest groups who all want different
things.
Which bit of Pakistan approves?
Certainly not the government.
Certainly not the intelligence apparatus that is well known to work
against US interests.

discriminate between brown people in those floppy robes known to your

But a carrier strike group usually consists of a cruiser, 6 to 10
destoyers and a couple of attack submarines. All supported
by the carrier air wing. Who is going to defeat that?
Even if someone managed to heavily damage one of them
we have e l e v e n more carrier strike groups.

I think our Arleigh Burkes are the backbone and can handle

Arleigh Burkes to around 94 of them by 2025. There are 4 in

For a start it's the 'Honourable East India Company'.
Second, the colonisation programme was never the HEIC's. They were a
trading company and didn't really ever want to run the place.
Almost all of India was run by the locals, who even had their own
king in titular control, until after 'The Mutiny'.
'Divide and Rule' is a technique for running the country rather than
conquest although it could certainly be applied to the British
diplomatic tactics in the Anglo-Maratha Wars (That you've almost
certainly never heard of) .
And finally, to cut to the quick of it, why isn't the vast bulk of the
area that was run in this manner like Pakistan?
Oh yes, and tea was a latecomer to the HEIC's operations.

Are we taking about the news that the Pakistani government has just
stopped a major opposition figure entering a part of the country
because he looks like he's about to get a bit too popular there?

Middle East as being between Arabia and India, centered on the Persian
Gulf. In British useage it extended to Burma.
At that time "Near East" meant the Ottoman Empire, after it fell
"Middle East" grew in popularity but there is no single official
definition of its boundaries.

North Africa.
The boundary between West Asia and South Asia is usually considered to
be the Persian Gulf.
Nobody in British service ever considered India to be in the Middle
East.
It is possible your confusion arises because of the military
responsibility the British imperial administration in India had for
some areas of West Asia, especially Yemen.

Labour have proved remarkably flexible in their economic policy in
recent years, especially since they dumped 'Clause 4'.
The current Tory government is insisting on sticking to its policies
of austerity despite the world bank and many others saying they've
gone too far, small businesses are being strangled and the bankers
are still running things really badly but for their own personal
profit...
As Einstein said:
"Insanity is doing the same thing, over and over again, but expecting
different results."

Satans (the US and Russia) who are supposedly directly opposed to Iran
and seek its destruction, the UK is "The Old Fox", conniving and
scheming and plotting for its own benefit (which is indifferent to, but
not automatically hostile to, Iranian interests).
One of the most popular Iranian TV comedies ever made, "My Uncle
Napoleon", centred on a young man among whose problems were a mad uncle
convinced that the British had spies, agents and assassins surrounding
him, closing in on him and acting to thwart his plans and ruin his life
(where of course his misfortunes were entirely down to his own folly),
for example.

redefining when the economic cycle began in order carry on spending when
the "golden rules" would've said otherwise. Still, it's all okay because

abolished boom and bust ..

Everyone else, including the USA is slowly spending their way out of
this recession, except ten UK, which is busy cutting payments to the
disabled and spending shed loads of cash on some nuclear submarines
and a couple of carriers we don't need and haven't got any aircraft
for.
In retrospect, Gordon Brown keeps looking better and better...

being bailed out in cash or they'd bring the whole edifice tumbling
down, and they got what they wanted because they're just too big to
piss off.
I don't notice the Greeks paying any more tax this week either.
Only in the UK is the government attacking the disabled as a matter of
policy...
Still, as they're disabled they can't go a rioting can they...
As for the Irish, well, they've got lower rates of VAT for most
things...
Portugal is about as efficient as Greece in collecting income tax and
the Dutch seem to be doing very well, thank you, without cutting
benefits.
Only our gang of posh boys are busy grinding the faces of the poor,
and the crippled poor at that, in an effort to look good to their
paymasters...
Now that would be almost acceptable if it worked. After all, they're
all rich Tories and you expect them to be utter bastards, but when
they do it and it doesn't work then it's unforgivable...

trying to spend their way out of the recession, In fact many
of them are in deep trouble because they had unsupportable
rates of public expenditure and the international markets
refused to lend them any more money at affordable rates.

But what they're not doing is paying for a couple of SSBNs and an
aircraft carrier or two for no good reason...

And Germany is propping them up because not to do so would be
suicidal...
Now I have to admit that the image of Angela Merkel being rather
Germanic while pretending to be reasonable when in Greece last week
isn't helping, but the reality is that only in the UK has the
government decided to spend loads of cash on defence and let the
crippled go to Hell.
