A political regime is a set of political structures that make up a state. A political regime may also be known as a form of government, a state system, or a political system. The term political regime may also sometimes refer to a specific ruler or set of rulers within a political system.
There are many different types of political regime in the modern world, and many more have existed historically. These range from the directly-democratic political regime of Anarchism to totalitarian regimes such as Military Dictatorships or Fascism. It is an accurate statement.
Dude, the entire point of that was to show you how the author of that report clearly had other things in mind while writing it. If he's calling Iran an Islamic Regime, his intentions are to instill fear into the reader, there's no other reason the guy would use those terms instead of just calling it Iran, or an Islamic Republic.
Paying into the hands of.... Well, since the Iranians have been using negotiations as a stall tactic to deliver the bomb, and since the AIPAC is with the Israeli lobby, the author finds it a bit strange as do I. They certainly should know better. Of course there may be many levels at work here behind the scenes and Israel may be simply covering all the bases.
Since 5 years of UN negotiations have yielded only enriched uranium, I disagree.
Why do you think that's strange? An Israeli lobby advising Obama AGAINST an aggressive approach to dealing with Israel... Could you possibly think that's strange because your information might be a little bit off, and maybe Obama's advisor's aren't going off the same information you are..? Do you think you have better intelligence than they do?
Where's the source for these 5 year long negotiations with the UN? I remember asking you for them a while back as I wanted to read over the terms. Please try to find an UNBIASED source if you find one.
As for the holocaust denial, I am glad you admit it happened...whew. They do not admit it and guess what, they are in control over there. These are the people who are building a bomb.
Dude, this is a perfect example of how you fail to see other perspectives... I know you're an atheist, I'm an atheist too, for the life of me I can't understand how you can look at Iran and see an out of control religious regime in the works, then look at the US and see freedom, democracy, liberty..etc... President Bush claimed to have spoken to GOD, we have over 50,000 nuclear weapons in our arsenal that would take one order from the president of the United States to launch... please see the insane amount of hypocrisy you're talking about here... "it's cool for us, but not for them..."
Next time, to avoid this situation, replace "Iran" with "the US" and see how well your sentences work out.
How is it biased for the reporter to say that Iran has already been isolated? they are and they do seem to be content with it until the master plan can be executed. If they have ANY friends (Iluse the term friends loosely here) it would be the Russians who are helping them build the bomb. This is one reason why Obama's olive branch to Russia is naive at best.
It's speculation when the reporter says things like "and it looks like they've enjoyed it for quite some time...", again, he throws shit like that in to scare the reader so the paper he's currently writing seems like a valid solution to the "Islamofascist Regime"... Your allegations towards Russia is again, SPECULATION. Show me proof, facts, evidence, sources...any number of things that would make your point valid. Russia and Iran are not behind the scenes building a bomb to set off in the west so the east can regain global control... give me a break man... Quite the conspiracy theory you've got there...
Jindel... No, and I'm pretty sure a 5th grader would grasp that the Iranians take the satan bit VERY seriously. It does not matter whether you do. You are an infidel.
The few people you can name might think that way, but the people behind the scenes you've never heard of that make up the majority of the Iranian government and population, I assure you, do not. I've posted polls to support this in this thread...
The write say, impossible more like it...and as I have already said, we have been in negotiations for over 5 years with this exact formula....and the bomb is almost here. That's called a pattern fella. The groping at the same failed ideas is what is alarming. Hitler would have loved this think tank.
Sources, and you'll definitely have to show me some sources on "the bomb that's almost here". Enriching low grade uranium for economic and energy purposes is far from being a nuclear bomb pal. Developing a nuclear bomb requires a lot of things, time, money, testing, etc... how would Iran complete a weapons enriching program without anyone, the UN, the CIA, the Justice Department, or any other unbiased member of the international community finding out? There'd be money trails, paper trails, evidence, pictures, video... at least something to show the Iranians are enriching weapons grade uranium, until I see something like that to support your theory, there's no reason to take it seriously let alone believe it and enact an aggressive foreign policy based on it...
So you don't think russia and china would just play patty cake if a nuke went off and western power waned? What do you think the cold war is son? A game of jacks? What do you think TOTALitarianism is? Now who is being naive...
The cold war has been over for more than a decade CrackerJax. Don't you remember 911? I wonder how many candle light ceremonies were held in China and Russia at that time (Iran as well I might add)... I think Russia and China would send immediate aid to the US if a nuclear weapon was detonated on our soil, exactly how we would if one was detonated on their soil. It's not a game of "one country has complete control and whenever they fall another country will be right there on it's shoulders ready to take the reins and take over global dominance"... we're not playing Risk here man, things are a little bit more complicated than that...
I noticed you skipped the part about the Russians supplying the Iranians with an air missile defense system. Sort of points out the folly of Obama playing nice with the Ruskies... Not to mention that Iran will have a missile defense system...and YOU won't. The US has one...the Russians have one.....the Chinese have one...the Iranians will have one shortly.... gosh the missile defense systems are popping up...but not for you. Nothing to worry about there right? uh huh. Patterns son, patters. Follow the action and not the words.
Well, that's what allies do, share technology and information, is it surprising Russia would support defending Iran against an attack from the US? Why? Would it then be surprising if we put missile defense systems in Poland to support Europe? (hmm...)
No, if Obama takes it to heart it may be the beginning of the end, for either London or Israel. Iran's two prime targets as they have stated on numerous occasions.
So as the world bulks up its military and religious fanatics build a bomb... it's Neville Chamberlain time all over again for the west. Remember him? So you want to take the high moral road Padawan....fine. When the bully walks the street, just sit there and be one with ghandi. Just be prepared to get the sh*t knocked out of you. The bullies of the world smell the weakness and they are correct. they will act accordingly, and they are already doing so.
You do this over and over, misinterpret peace and willingness to negotiate as weakness or appeasement. Do you think being aggressive and forceful is the absolute only way to solve anything? Give me a situation where peace would be your first method of engagement. Can you even think of one, or would you ALWAYS resort to violence first? I have the security of knowing that if any violence does occur, it wont be started because of me, which means I'll always be right because I'll remain alive and because wars and violence never tell you whose right, only whose left.
The EU is a Joke..
And Britain...
Well it's nice to see that the British still haven't lost the Hubris that cost them their Global Empire...
The Sun has Set on the British Empire
How's it feel to be the backwater province of Germany. What's more impressive is they did it with out firing a shot...
So now it's a pissing contest? Really, it's come to this, one of the lowest forms of fail on all of the internets? "I'm from this country, you're from that country, my country saved your country during this war, your country couldn't defend itself from this enemy...blah blah blah" Got news for all you guys, you all were NOWHERE to be found during any of this, anyone saying their country is better than someone else's country is seriously, internet retarded. Get the hell over your undeserved sense of patriotism, it doesn't mean shit out there in the real world where, like CJ's pointed out, they don't give a fuck who you are. (especially if you weren't even born yet, damn.. it's like when black generations of today complain about slavery...seriously, fuckin' retards, same shit presented here, fuckin' retards)
You cannot defend yourself. You haven't for 60 years son.
it's just to bad your not using a german to engish dictionary as you type this.
So brush your teeth, your stinkin up this web site will your foul breath.
Really... does this make you guys feel smart? Do you realize with every post like this you make yourself, and fellow Americans like me, look like complete tools? So you can pick up on an old British stereotype, did you just see Austin Powers? Shit does nothing for your pov but weaken it more.
They seem not to mind if we leave Europe.
I don't mind, they don't matter.....
Typical American. It's this kind of shit that makes it so when someone asks my nationality, I feel compelled to apologize at the end...
