The Persian civilization is much older than Western civilizations.....but so what?? Just about everyone would rather live in the U.S.<BR/>That comment about the U.S. "War machine" is crap. In the sixties the government spent 7% of GNP on the military. It's been decreasing ever since. It's now down to about 4%.

Iran is sitting on top of the world's number 1 most precious commodities that the rest of the world needs, and its civilization is many many times older than ours. We have mortgaged our great-grandchildren's happiness to finance our war machines...and yet can't win a war against a bunch of cave-dwellers in Afghanistan.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
