    I've noticed this a bit more recently, as people discuss Either Iraq or Iran the two often get transposed, often mid sentence. this is something I've noticed moreso in the Politics thread, especially from the Israeli Apologists when trying to stirr people up.

    Now, do people think this may be a deliberate attempt to confuse the issue and make the two interchangable, to sort of set the notion in the public eye that they are the same?

    what do ye think

    It's been happening for years. It could be people who don't know any better but it could well be people wanting to exploit the confusion. I'd say there's a bit of both there.

    The confusion could be just natural. There would be a definite advantage to deliberately trying to confuse the two though.

    IF... or should I say WHEN the headlines one day read " USA Invades Iran " people will just ponder to themselves "Hmmm, Iran... Iraq.... Ah fook it same thing ! Both countries full of brown people!"

    I would say it is in some cases and sometimes not intentional. It is easy to get mixed up in your lines about these countries.

    Whats interesting to me is (despite the ongoing genocide in Iraq) No USA man got the stargate going HA:D They are paying the prices for this war, Some fools.

    Iran is just the most important country on the list to take over as far as the NWO goes. Both countries are getting the same faith.
