"Wil the US bomb Iran?" thread in General seems a bit out of hand

There appears to excessive angst and flame in the "Will the US bomb Iran?" thread in General. The ickiness I've seen starts at least as early as here (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=390348&page=11&pp=30) (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=390348&page=11&pp=30) at about post 303 (also post 306). The thread is currently around 365-ish, and from what I can tell between 300 and 365 is quite a bit flame.

Everyone in the thread seems ok with it though.

To clarify, and maybe save the mods some time, there seem to be a few posters overstepping the boundaries from "heated debate" to "agressive flame".

Specifically, Justinopian Kingdom (in 306 (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=7975107&postcount=306) and 327 (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=7975107&postcount=327))

Psylos (in 303, (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=7975107&postcount=303), 353 (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=7975107&postcount=353), and 329 (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=7975107&postcount=329))

Spartain Warriors (in 335 (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=7975107&postcount=335) and 385 (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=7975107&postcount=385))

The Supreme Rabbit (in 391 (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=7975107&postcount=391))

To their credit, there are some posters who, from what I've seen, are trying to wade through it all and debate cleanly (such as Drunk Commies and Eutrusca), in fact, even those mentioned aren't horrible overall. It just seems there's a bit too much hate in there, those posts in particular.

And I may not have linked some of the posts correctly, sorry. It's a bit ad-hoc. Maybe using the post numbers for referrence to browse the thread page-wise is the best option.
