Only an american would think 20K troops could defeat iran.
(It's the drugs you know)

I think the easiest way to avoid WWIII is to get pissed every time a news organization or individual talks about going to war without even considering the alternatives.

Iranians are not monsters, and the US is not a place filled with super-special people.(Nor is Europe or Britain, but I get the impression that people are a lot saner over there)

If there are any Iranians out there, please, for everyone's sake, take the abuse for a little longer, at least until the next US president is decided. If it ends up being John McCain, then I've wasted your time, but I'm hoping it'll be Barack Obama, not because I really like his policies, but simply because he's less likely to get everybody killed.

Of course, the individual won't go into office until around the middle of January, but if it's Barack Obama, then you can rest assured I will be one of the people involved in letter-writing campaigns to undo the damage that George Bush has done.

To any Islamic people reading this, and especially potential jihadists, PLEASE be patient. I don't want to be Islamic, but I also have no desire to persecute other religions.

While you wouldn't expect these people to be anywhere near factual...

1st SFOD-D ("Delta Force") has about 200-250 'shooters'. That's a bit shy of 20,000. Why you'd use a lightly armed special operations force to smash through Iranian armored divisions, another curious question.

I can see it now: "The US has deployed nuclear missles over Iran. Our video, taken by a US soldier, below proves this. All we ask is that you donate to our cause to help the misplaced families. You can enter your credit card information below."
