Invasion of Iran? When was that ever planned? I think I'm missing something...

Anyway, you most likely won't see either the battle mech or powered exoskeleton suit in battle anytime in the near future. In fact, we have a long ways to go before we see anything that advance used in combat. Production and deployment alone costs a lot of money, probably rivaling the cost of research.

The invasion of Iran just isn't official yet (can I get a show of hands for who thinks it won't happen?). Military tech companies are simply planning ahead.

Indeed. Just thing of how often we hear of soldiers with worn down gear that's not really suitable for combat. There's no way we'd have the cash to send many soldiers in with powered exoskeletons, etc...

Checkmate (the think tank that designed the Gulf War strategies) was reformed and orders were given to come up with strike plans for Iran. I'm pretty sure that the invasion of Iraq was done to supply the united states with a freindly country to do air raids from besides Saudi Arabia. Iran is on borrowed time, but then, so is Bush. We'll see what happens. If Hillary is elected, we'll go to war with Iran. If it's Obama or Edwards, they'll ignore it until a nuke goes off in Israel or NYC. If we get another republican president, we'll go to war with Iran.

Well, considering my entry into the US military... it's a wild dream to somehow become a prototype Mecha pilot.

If I did, you'd guys never find about it, obviously.

Thats the **** that scares me, mostly because its a guranteed World War 3 and possibly a nuclear war. If that ever does happen, im sure something will happen that will bring China or some other strong power into it and trigger a bigger conflict.


Of course, thats just my opinion on the matter.

Ha! And with my desires to become a journalist of some kind... Naw... probably not.

I'm just gonna throw this out there, but have any of you heard of Ron Paul? He's an anti-war Republican with quite an impressive record of sticking to his principles. The people over at Digg had a hard-on for him all summer.

Him or Kucinich and you Yanks might just find some sanity in government.

Oh, I know it won't happen, but what-if scenarios are fun. I'll have my popcorn ready come Primaries.

Umm...Luka....you can't actually be an addict unless you've tried the drug once. So, some of us aren't. Wish I was, tho.

On topic: Invasion of Iran, my ass. It won't even happen, let alone with this ****. Not to mention how much development and research would cost.
