There will be no attack on Iran. Talk about fear mongering.[/QUOTE
I have to agree with Ken H. I sincerely hope and pray that you’re right. Fear mongering? Perhaps, but there is a great deal of justification. I don't know how most Yanks feel about the war in Eye-rak or possibly Eye-ran, but here in Canuckland, there is a great deal of resentment about being in Afghanistan under false pretences. Our government just voted a couple of days ago to extend our military mission in Afghanistan to 2011 and not without a lot of controversy. In general, Canucks support & are very proud of their troops and I think for the most part, realize ‘we’re here, so we’d better make the best of it’. Ironic that we went into Afghanistan in a non-combat role (because of pressure from good old Dubya) to support US troops and then got sucked into a full-scale war while your guys took off to Eye-rak looking for WMD, leaving Canucks and precious few other NATO countries 'holding the fort' in Afghanistan. Bitter - no, but very wary of US policies and rhetoric.
Quite frankly, Magnetic Pole’s statement “if the US attacked another nation unprovoked I fear for the survival of the nation as we have known it” rings true. I have to agree – your country’s image is unfortunately, severely tarnished. I can tell you Canucks will be closely watching 2011 roll around and I don't think they'll tolerate any further extensions or being dragged into another quagmire – not from our government or yours.
