    Today is the day when the people of Iran overthrew the dictatorship of the Shah and then went under the dictatorship of the ayatollah, not much of an improvement.

    and according to the 100% true Iran state media, the Iranian revolution caused the arab spring.

    And now, Iran may soon get WMDs. What fun.

    Because Israel isn't controlled by a goverment that has often expressed its desire for a nation (Israel) to be wiped off the map. If you aren't worried about Iran getting WMDs, then you have not been paying attention. I guess you were thilled when North Korea got nukes too.

    Well I'm sure Israel would like for Iran to be wiped off the map too, however I highly doubt Israel would actually attack with nukes.

    Well yes, however that's more because they see Iran as what they are, a massive threat to Israel, then as Iran sees them, a nation that they think should not exist in the first place. In my opinion, a war between Israel and Iran is coming very soon. There's no way Israel is going to let Iran move their Nuclear Program to under a mountain. There will be an attack soon, with, or without the U.S.'s support. But that's just my opinion, and I'm usually wrong.

    I don't think you're wrong about Israel attacking Iran soon. The signs are too obvious.

    Do not try to tell me about my grammar. What does it matter to you any way.

    Bad grammar can easily lead to misunderstandings, and is in general a pain to read. Just now, I received an email from a student organisation from my university, and I couldn't get over a single spelling mistake they made, and was tempted to send a rant about it back. Heck, one of my tests (made by a professor, I assume) was filled with grammatical errors and misspellings. Seriously, it was almost painful to go through. I mean, Dutch is not an easy language, but people here keep saying it's important to teach toddlers English while they themselves can't properly spell Dutch. It's absolutely ridiculous.

    It's also why I find it almost painful to see people not even trying to spell decently on the internet. English is not my native tongue, yet my grammar is better than of some whose first language is English. There's absolutely no reason not to use proper spelling and grammar on the internet, especially if you want people to think you're at least a bit intelligent.

    So...with Kali gone, someone needs to continue the war on bad grammar, right?

    Who was installed by the UK & US. And you say it wasn't much of an improvement. In a lot of ways, that's true. But importantly it regained the independence that was stolen by the UK & US. If we didn't interfere they might have had a respectable regime today.

    The ironic thing is that when I received the automatic reply email, it said "Fuck wit", whereas the correct spelling would be "fuckwit" or maybe even "fuck-wit".
