What will happen is the US bombs Irans nuclear reactor. What will happen if Israel bombs it? I am trying to understand the situation and the reprecusions of it. As far as I can see, If the US bombs, China will retaliate for Iran, and Iran will bomb Iraq. Is Israel does, than Iran and Syria will realiate, but China will stay out of it (as Israel and China share military contracts ect). So from this, it would be better for Bush to push Israel to bomb Iran, to avoid conflict with China.

I have no idea but I think that it will be a huge milestone in our decline. I say lets let someone else like Isreal bomb them. We have too much bad PR right now. Syria will be drawn into it.

Everyone who controls oil or has oil stocks will win. Instability in the world oil market=huge price increases.

Plus it will start World War III for sure, Syria will get involved becaue they have a defensive agreement between each other, the US will get stuck in Iraq and will need asistance from Europe and Israel, Arabic countries will not sit down and watch as misiles are flying over there terrain, China will look at this situation and see that it will be there chance to make a move , Russia will see the same thing too, NK is going to get excited...etc, in short it will be the end of the world, and I for one don't care I am just sick of worrying about it, when it comes I am ready to give up seeing people getting murdered everyday.

If Israel attacks Iran with no nukes, Iran will have to return the favour, remember their defensive agreement with Syria becasue Iran will reply with Syria by it's side, and it will be the start of a complete destruction of the ME campaign, and no one will survive it not even Israel. Our country will get out of it almost completely destroyed (military wise) Russia and China will become real superpowers and we will become weak players in the world scene.
Unless any of the sides uses nukes then it will be the end of the world for sure.

I do not think Syria is going to give .02 about Iran.

Syria will only care if Israel starts invading Lebanon which they might do if Hezbollah steps up and attacks Israel.

Syria will get into it if it is a US bombing, anti-US is popular right now, they will need to show a hate for the US.

They were Iraq's best friend.

They didn't do anything when the U.S attacked Iraq.
They will not do anything for their Persian neighbors either.

Syria's President is a chicken. He has no guts.

Look at the things Iran's President is saying. It is as if he wants the U.S to attack.

No chance.

Syria and Iran combined couldnt do much more then be a minor nuisance, to either isreal or America. No other country will step in in the Middle East because that aligns them with one side or the other. They want to stay as nuetral as possible.

China *might* support iran through arms deals, but that would be the extent of it. China knows without a doubt it will lose in a shooting war in the Middle East, and it doesnt yet have a blue water navy to do much around Japan either. It has to sit it out, or face defeat.

Russia will do what Russia always does. Sell arms to whoever is buying. Russia is worried about Russia, thats as far as it goes.

The conflict will be between local parties in the Middle East.

Your statement would hold true if the U.S wasn't in Iraq or Afghanistan.

I see where your wet dream is.

If Iran is bombed, it'll take it up the ass and like it. It's what they want anyway.

Just remember, in your favority WWIII, the ME arabs will be completely annihilated. So honestly, you shouldn't be that excited.

Actually its more true because we are in Iraq. We already have an established presence in the Middle East, something China and Russia do not have. Additionally, we can move ANY piece of military hardware we have smaller then a destroyer in 12 hours or less to the region, and keep it up nonstop 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Again, something China does not have. And Russia wouldnt be interested in a shooting war anyways so their airlift capabilities are a moot point.

I am just talking chain reactions that's all, one move form Israel, would turn the whole region upside down, everyone will be in chaose, I mean if Israel starts the war then I don't see why you should defend them you know Meuge ? Oh right I forgot who you are never mind ;)

I think that if the US bombs Iran, it will be WW3, but not include China or Russia, but be primarily between the US and the EU. You have to remember that most of the middle east are puppet regimes or vassal states of Europe. The EU will take the opportunity to wipe out all undesirables in the war too, another final solution.

You people are out of your minds. This just shows how much you know about geopolitics.

Neither EU, nor China, nor Russia, have an interest in Iran that is so great, as to go to war with the US. The very concept is insane.

Let me repeat what I said " Our country will get out of it almost completely destroyed (military wise) Russia and China will become real superpowers and we will become weak players in the world scene." You see they will not participate, but they will sure have one hell of a role making deals here and there.

Use Russian cargo carriers? They have the money to more or less do what they want.

The superpowers will never fight each other. Simple as that. Actually, bombing the ****** out of the Iranian reactor and paying China the $80B would be a bargain.

They can't have nuclear weapons... it's that simple. If they really wanted nuclear fuel for civilian purposes of generating power, they'd agree to the Russian proposal of having the enrichment done there.

Yes, because Russia really wants to pick a side....And the losing one at that.

No chance. Simply wont happen. Russia is crude, their not dumb.
