i suck, i need help on my history critical thinking thing?

Asking for advice is typically presidential.

You would have several options that you could choose from.

op1) You could attempt to get a UN resolution.
Problem 1) It normally takes more that a week to get one if you can at all.
Problem 2) Iran has ignored anything from the UN so far.

op 2) You could impose economic sanctions or eve a blockade.
Problem 1) Sanctions take months if not years to work and they don't always work.
Problem 2) A blockade would only work on anything moved by ship.
There are numerous land routes out of Iran.

op 3) You could use a tactic called saber rattling or bluffing in an attempt to get Iran to back down.
This would involve a show of military force.
The only problem with this option is if they call your bluff you may need to choose quickly whether to use force or back down your self.

op 4) You could wait for Iran to attack then use military force.
problem 1) By waiting for the attack the retaliating there may be nothing left to defend.
Problem 2) You may be forced to launch a nuclear retaliatory strike rather than sticking to conventional warfare.
positive 1) You would be considered justified in retaliating against Iran at this point.

op5) You could do a preemptive strike in an attempt to destroy Iran's nuclear capabilities.
You could possibly even greatly reduce the over all ability to wage war.
Problem 1) You would make few friends with a preemptive strike.
Problem 2) You would spark a war between the US and Iran.
Problem 3) You would turn millions of young Iranians from protesting their rulers into patriots over night.
Problem 4) A war between the US and Iran would close the straits of Hormuz shutting off a significant percentage of the worlds oil.
Positive 1) You would save the lives of millions of people.

Why do you not do your own homework. As a teacher I would be able to smell out that it is not your answer like cheap cologne on a rat.

turn iran into a sheet of glass, if you get my drift.

Israel is quite capable of taking care of its self...so i would stay out of it

You been goofing off at something, not our fault. Get busy and learn something, do some research and stop wanting someone else to do your homework while your running up and down the street with your friends.

Well since Israel has had it's own arsenal of nuclear missiles since the early 1970s I'd tell Israel to tell Iran that if they don't stop trying to produce their own nuke weapons ASAP then Israel will wipe Iran off the face of the earth before Iran can do that to Israel.

well... first off... Israel would probably go bomb Iran on their own...

just like they attacked Iraq in the 80s....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel#1980s

then they would want our support to help with any possible problems that could arise...

a nuclear attack is almost off the table, unless it's retaliation... to much damage overall to consider... both ecologically and to the nearby population of possible targets that has little to do with the situation...

most likely Israeli led bombing of both facilities where bombs are researched/made and bombing of the nations leader's houses... both the president and religious council...

kind of like Kaddafi...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muammar_Kaddafi#External_relations

but no major ground invasion...

I mean it's an opinion question, so there's not much of a right or wrong answer... this is just my opinion

Just say that Americans are so low in intelligence that a president of this nation wouldn't know what was going on and would probably just sit in the white house for long hours doing absolutely nothing.

Instant A+.

This one is really not that difficult.

One good threat deserves another. I would tell Israel to make it perfectly clear that if they are attacked by Iran, they will respond in kind and absolutely destroy any and all of Iran's military and industrial capabilities - and with America's full backing and support.
And then I would confirm this position through diplomatic channels to Iran in such a way as to eliminate any misunderstanding as to what the consequences to their country would be if they choose to pursue this course of action.
I am fully confident that they would quickly reconsider their demands.

First I'd try to get Israel to leave the Gaza Strip in the name of peace.

Israel has a very advanced military (cause we supply them with all their equipment), so a pre-emptive attack on Iran wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.

Israel attacking any other ME country would certainly draw ire and give all Muslim countries something to rally behind. War would probably be imminent.

It's always a good idea, politically speaking, to involve the UN.

Since we don't need to occupy Iran, we could bomb them 24/7 with our superior air force and missile launches from one of the Navy ships that's parked in the Persian Gulf.

How far would I take it? First, I'd bomb their nuclear "factories", then bomb the rest of their military, and turn the head of Iran (i see his name so many times, but hell if I can spell it!) into 1000 pieces.

Nuclear weapons shoud *always* be a last resort.

The consequences would probably turn all ME countries against us and give new ferver to terrorists to attack us again on our own soil.

It could turn out to be a rally cry for Muslims all over the world.

If you appear in a consistent prime university historical past e-book or discuss with a battle museum, you can be informed that even though Truman hated the proposal of killing such a lot of folks, he did it considering the fact that it was once the one method to shop American squaddies' lives. That's spin. Truman had plenty of alternative factors to drop the bomb, and none of them had been very noble. Yes, the proof indicates Truman was once definitely involved approximately utilising the gadget. He was once concerned approximately the illustration America could be environment. If one nation used the a weapon, others could most likely comply with. And he was once concerned approximately American households who had household serving within the Pacific. He did care approximately American squaddies. But there are different factors. For one, Truman was once additionally a political candidate. He knew that if phrase acquired out that he America had a weapon that would have ended the battle faster and he did not use it, it could most likely damage his profession. Second, America and the Soviet Union had been assembly on the Potsdam Conference. They had been negotiating what could occur on the finish of the battle. This was once the establishing of the Cold War. Truman felt that utilising nuclear guns could galvanize and intimidate the Russians, and could consequently upgrade America's strategic hindrance within the put up-battle global. This reasoning has been referred to as "Nuclear Diplomacy." Third, American racism allowed them to view the Japanese as much less-than-human. Propaganda confirmed the Japanese as dollar-toothed, sneaky, merciless vermin who had to be exterminated. Japanese Americans were locked up Americans in attention camps. Since they had been regarded as inferior beings, it was once less difficult to justify the bloodbath. So if you are Truman, you do it considering the fact that you desire to avoid wasting your possess political dermis and placed the worry of god on your competitors. And when you consider that you do not believe the Japanese are racially inferior, it is effortless to justify it considering the fact that American lifestyles is valued at greater than Japanese lifestyles.

You ask to negotiate as you send planes there to drop the big one on Iran.

Israel would not need your help, and I doubt they would ask your advise. they have a formidable defense and offense. from my understanding if things get out of hand Mecca is first on their list of expendable places in the world. if your Republican, let them do their thing. if your Democrat, suggest negotiation.

These questions are fantasy and to answer is also fantasy as this type of query is hypothetical and they have to be answered likewise.

I'd stand with Iran and tell the Israeli's to get out of Palestine. Never should've been allowed in there in the first place.
