In an article titled "The Roads Leading to Disaster," published in the official daily Granma on Thursday, Castro said there is no doubt that the US would be making the greatest mistake in its history if it decides to attack Iran in coordination with Israel.

?The Israeli government has openly declared its intention to attack the enriched uranium production plant in Iran, and the government of the United States has invested hundreds of millions of dollars in manufacturing a bomb for that purpose,? he wrote.

?As far as I am concerned, I do not harbor the slightest doubt that the United States is about to commit, and lead the world toward, the greatest error in its history,? he added.

Castro said Washington is wrong to think that Iranians in the country?s Armed Forces, who are known for their religious principles and fighting traditions, will surrender to the US without shooting a bullet.

In his reflection, Cuba?s revolution leader also defended Tehran?s nuclear energy program and said ?Iran does not possess nuclear weapons,? adding that Tehran?s possession of the technology to enrich uranium is not equivalent to the production of nuclear weapons.

Castro also criticized the West?s nuclear double standards, noting that Israel has manufactured nuclear weapons with the help and coordination of the US.

The United States, Israel, and some of their allies accuse Iran of pursuing military objectives in its nuclear energy program, with Washington and Tel Aviv using this pretext to threaten Iran with a military option to stop its nuclear energy program.

Iran rejects allegations of pursuing military objectives in its nuclear energy program, arguing that as a committed signatory to the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and a member of the International Atomic Energy Agency, it has the right to use nuclear technology for peaceful purposes.

What Castro doesn't mention is that the Iranian people hate the government. Heck they tried to have their own spring but Barry didn't help them.

Now with that said, I do not want a war with Iran or anybody at this time.

They wont hate their government once foreign bombs start dropping.

Yep, once we start having "collateral damage" with all our bombs and bullets, they'll be loving their government again.

Have you ever had a foreign government come into your country and kill your 2 year old little baby girl while she slept, because a bomb got away or there was a high value target using you as a shield of sorts?

Or maybe it wasn't a bomb, maybe it was a shootout, and your little girl catches a bullet in the crossfire, through the wall?

Well they will.

Either way, UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES. 

I agree with Fidel on this, The US going to war with Iran probably will be one of the worst mistakes that the US ever makes.

US won't go to war with Iran. It would be sheer stupidity for all involved. Just more ginned-up controversy where there was none. That said, those ginner-uppers have done more than their share to send gas prices skyrocketing. Them and the damn speculators, which they all can 'eff themselves, instead of the American people.
