Storm The Embassy

I've decided(oh, the fickleness) that I will not write extensively about Global Health or War or anything like that on my blog. Instead, I will write on Microsoft Word and then if I wish so post them up here. This is so that I can practice writing essays(oh how terrible I am at that).

Anyway, here's something for you to think about. You decide if Iran or USA(maybe it's just Bush, but we'll wait for Obama) is the "bad guy" here.

You see, Iran's military doctrine is based of the concept of Deterrence. That is, to put it simply, "I will retaliate with my nuclear weapon, WMD, long range missles etc etc (that might not even exist), only IF you attack me first. Hence, why I build these fun stuff - to prevent you from attacking me."

However, the Bush doctrine is based of the concept of Preemptive strike. That is, "I will attack you as soon as I, triple emphasis on "I", think that you are a threat to me, or WILL BE a threat to me, doesn't matter if you really have no food to eat in your country, leave alone WMD."

So this I ask you, who is a bigger threat to world security? Who's nuclear weapons are potentially more dangerous to human kind? In other words, who should be the FIRST to be disarmed of their nuclear weapons? You can answer these seemingly complex questions, I'm sure.


In other news, Brazil trounced Portugal 6-2 last night. Amazing.

Though a Manchester United fan(Christiano Ronaldo), Brazil reigns supreme on the International stage. Love 'em. Since 1994.
