What would you do if the U.S. started a war in Iran? There has been a lot of talk about Iran in the news and there are ALREADY books out about Iran and the supposed up and coming "NUCLEAR WAR".

There seems to be a lot of things being published and spoken on the news that seems to be prepping us for a war in Iran, which oddly enough sounds very much like the language when we were in Afghanistan (failed) and wanted to move into Iraq.
Iran, is in need of more proficient energy sources and they want to go into nuclear power. They want to do this because first off, they are using more oil then they can produce. (not to mention that they export a lot also) Secondly, beause of their energy needs they would like to go into nucleur energy.
The radioactive material used for generating electric energy is a down graded version of what one might use to build a nucleur bomb. Once the materal is down graded for generating electricity it can not be purged or cleaned in a way that would make it useful again for producing WMD's. (It's good to know that a few nations are running their countries off of nucleur energy. the U.S. does have a few nuclear power plants but our use of them is extremely minimal. However, France is run highly off of nuclear power.)
It was suggested that the Russians supply Iran with this radioactive material where they profit off of selling it AND are therefore in control of the kinds of radioactive materail Iran would pocess. Thus, a happy checks and balances where Iran is allowed to stabilize their country (which is a good thing, it would not benefit the U.S. to force them into poverty) and we get to make sure they don't get any 'illegal' meterials (guess we could talk about the whos and whys of the legalization of nuclear arms but we'll leave that for another time eh?). The U.S. of course, didn't really like this idea so much and didn't back it. So, they aren't doing it.
All this to ask... if we did go to war in Iran, what would your thoughts be? What would you do? Clap? Smile? Shake your head in shame? Riot?

im not sure if I would riot but I would definitely protest. In what form or fashion im not sure. I have a lot of mixed thoughts about what to do. I really do feel as if the U.S. is losing a lot of foot hold in the world right now, or if we want to use a technical term "coercive power". I have to think more about it and learn more about the whole situation to have a definite opinion, but thats what I have right off the top.
I would protest also, but the means of which also allude me. If they tried to draft I would probably break out the zippo. One other way though, I think I would do everything possible to raise awareness that there are actual people besides "insurgents" living there. Like, families, friends, bothers, sisters, and even loved ones of "insurgents."
well i gues by zippo you mean a nonviolent zippo. haha. like the priest i saw in camden, NJ who burned draft cards during the vietnam war.
