By it's nature the topic of war and foreign relations is political.

If WWIII were to ever happen, I think it would be us and Europe against Iran, North Korea, and some of these Middle East countries. The thought of Iran and North Korea having nukes scares the shit out of me, to be honest.

The USA can't go to war without the authorization of Congress and the signature of the president. My answer of no with a claim that the president won't agree to going to war because it means he will be on the side of Israel was a legitimate answer to the OP. If bringing up the realities means I entered the thread into the realm of politics than I am guilty as charged.

Oh, there's no doubt our hands are all over the many assassinations of key Iranian scientists. I'm sure we weren't in the dark about Stuxnet, either . . .

We are at war with them we just have not made it "official". When we go to"official" war with them we will let loose our friends the Israelis to finish them off.

Which is why it's hilarious that we claim to hate terrorism when we engage in it when it suits our strategy.

Which is more likely, that or that we or others helped do it given that we've said we'll do those things. There is evidence that says we'll do those things yet there is no evidence other than "I could see them doing that" to suggest that Iran would be killing it's key nuclear scientists in some plot to justify a strike on Israel which would surely ruin them via us bombing the fuck out of them.

There is zero chance that they created a multi-million dollar virus they then implanted into their nuclear reactors to slightly alter the speed at which they spin, causing millions of dollars in damage. There are only a handful of places in the world with the technology to do that, and they're probably not one of them.

We aren't going to war with Iran.

None of the politicians in this country have a stomach for the economic fallout that would ensue when oil/gas prices went parabolic.

Going to war and declaring war are two very different things. We're already at war with Iran, with Stuxnet being part of the dual US/Israeli effort.
