Will Biden/Harris start a new war in the Middle East?

[jwoodie]

Returning to the Iran Nuclear Agreement and demanding Palestinian approval of any new agreements involving Israel may be feel-good policies in the short term, but they virtually guarantee another war in the Middle East. Does anyone really think that Israel will sit by and allow Iran to gain the means of destroying the Jewish state? Does anyone not realize that the Palestinians are expendable pawns in the game of radical Muslim theocracy, used to inflame the passions of the ignorant masses?

Will you disclaim any responsibility for the resulting conflagration? Do you really believe it won't affect you? Comments?

No they won't start a war - And the nuke agreement was working.

It would probably be way too risky, politically, for the Biden Administration to return to the Obama policy considering how well things are going under the Trump policy.

Where could they start a new war? ... the whole place is on fire right now ... maybe the bottom of the Black Sea? ...

The Democrats are The Party of War and they are ready to fire up the war machine, no doubt.

Let's backtrack:

Iraq 2 = George XLIII
Afghanistan = George XLIII
Iraq 1 = George XLI
Nicaragua = Reagan

Oh, I see ...
Vietnam = Kennedy

After 60 years of watching Republicans have all the fun, I can see where Democrats are just itchin' to join in ...

 

[pknopp]

They might. Most thought Obama wouldn't but that turned out to not be true so anything is possible.

If we simply remain in the ones we are in though, they have failed.

Sorry, I should have asked for intelligent comments.

It's more likely that a war with Iran is prohibitive now because Iran and it's allies have the strength to strike out in a very significant way against the apartheid regime.

And when I say 'allies', it means that both Russia and China have interests in Iran and the entire ME now too. America will have to play it cautious to hold onto the ME assets it has now as those countries turn toward both China and Russia for guarantees of peaceful alliances.

Already Syria is lost and Afghanistan and Iraq are moving away from the US very rapidly too.

America has much more important domestic issues to contend with for the foreseeable future, than getting involved in more meddling in the ME, which will fail to produce new gains.

They’ll probably nuke Israel.

Then make a trade deal with Iran that makes the USA energy dependent on Iran, while at the same time roll out the green new deal.

Only because it would be the most hypocritical and illogical thing to do.

 

[edthecynic]

NO, Israel will start a war with Iran that they will want us to fight.

No, they won't nuke Israel. That's completely ridiculous and needs to be rejected before any progress can be made. Iran's leaders fully understand the consequences.

/----/ As private citizens, Commie Harris and Dementia Joe ain't gonna start any wars.

PS: Bibi is an asshole.

If the United States were to show weakness by allowing Biden to assume office, this would be seen by the mullahs as an opportunity for Iran to declare outright war on Israel without fear of U.S. retaliation.

Kim Jong-un has shown evidence of considerable “glasnost” and “perestroika” in North Korea presaging the end of Communism and the onset of Capitalism in the country to better finance its “heavy industry” or “hammer-and-sickle” economy.

The U.S. will probably see a trade deficit with N.K., but we will also get something for our money, and trade may open the other way also, as North Koreans partake in Western-style consumerism.

That's very unlikely and so being unlikely is a big positive on the situation. Israel understands that an attack on Iran, no matter how intense by them and the US, Iran and it's allies will have enough success in a counter attack to make it prohibitive for the apartheid regime. Their only option is to keep the status quo in place and attempt to expand on their territory through small regional attacks on Syria for now.

Fwiw, Iran doesn't need nuclear weapons any more than does the apartheid regime. Both have nuclear armed big brothers.

North Korea will eventually embark on the only system that can bring them success and provide for their people. That is capitalism within a communist system, that has succeeded so well fro China.

There is no room for democracy in any countries with billions of hungry mouths to feed. China has elevated hundreds of millions of its people up out of poverty. It appears that's the only way it can be done.

If America is to move forward it will have to adopt a totally new form of capitalism within a democracy that will be socially responslble to the people. Greedy capitalism has failed and the latest evidence of that failure is Trump's.
