Iran's fear of the USA

Anyone know what this is?


There is a part of Iran that is scared of USA,

and another part that is disparaging self contemptous on the other hand.

I've spoke to this paradigm before.

and will take another run at it.

When I was in Morocco I discovered

the seminal seed of that paradigm.

In the Bazaar its expected that you

will haggle, not because its fun,

but because it produces more 

income for the seller. 

I noticed in the bazaar the merchant

became irritated when I accepted 

and paid what he ask without any

haggling.

At first it seemed a cultural hickup

it just didn't make sense. Do they

really like to haggle that much?

Is that their idea of fun?

And I think the same context is going

on between Iran and the USA and its

becoming even more problematic.

Iran doesn't trust the USA and from

their stand point and culture they have 

good reason.

The reason the merchant gets upset

when you don't haggle, and he isn't angry with

you but angry at himself, self loathing, but

very intermittent and short lived but

real.

He is upset because he could have asked

the dumb rich American 100% more for the 

Item or maybe even 500% more.

You didn't haggle the upper range of

what you would pay remains unknown,

His price was to low, he could have asked

for more, he can't know because you didn't refuse

the price or haggle. If you don't haggle its

an insult to him because he was bested,

He got less than the Maximum you would pay.

And You bought his merchandise for less than

the top price you were willing to pay. That makes

you the winner in this little transaction.

I hope that makes sense.

Iran is running with the same paradigm

in similar context.

Iran seized the American Embassy and held

300 Americans hostage for 400 days.

And hardly anything happened,

They could have done more, gone further

before anything happened.

The didn't get a feeling for the USA's upper

level of tolerance is.

And this context has been repeating its self

for 20 yrs with USA and Iran.

Sending IEDs to Afpak, 

nothing happened.

Sending batteries to Afgha

for the old sholder fired missles.

Nothing happened.

Stole the Iranian election,

Nothing happened.

Building a nuclear weapon,

and so far nothing has happened.

And thats where they get scared.

Would USA get so upset, fed up that it SNAPPED

and pull an Hiroshima in Iran?

After every thing Iran has done to provoke

USA they haven't been able to come up 

with any thing that is so far out that it

has elicited an Military response from USA.

Its almost like a teenager, you can't hit or

spank them, no physical punishment.

We let them get away with everything,

Untill they kill someone then we try them 

like an adult, Hiroshima their little asses.

Send the kids to prision for life.
Iran doesn't want to trip that paradigm.
And USA does have it.

USA needs a military response to some

Iranian action, to show we won't crush

them like a bug.

That we respect them and will take disciplinarian

actions that are in kind and reasonable.

By setting limits and acting we establish boundaries

Iran will understand, not saying they will respect those

boundaries, but they will know where they are.

They can see the trip wire, they know where it is,

this also reduces the fear of accidentally tripping

a crush Iran trip wire.

Somebody did hit one of the USA's trip wires.

His name is Bin Laden. And how many places

did he blow up before we took him seriously?

And this will help reduce the FEAR,

and real boundaries to work on without

Iranian Regime being so frightened

that they feel they need Nukes to defend 

against USA.

It over simplified, and not exact but the ideas 

and hypothesis are all there.
