Yes, it's just the reality of nuclear weapons, it's best that unstable nations do not have them. While it'd be better if no one had them, that's not feasible.

just send Mithan to mod ban the living sh*it out of the Ayatollah.

the rest will fall into line so fast it'd be hillarious

While I agree it makes me uncomfortable to tell any soverign nation what kind of defenses they can and cannot have. I wouldnt want say England threatening to invade the US because we have nuclear capabilities. Yes I know that is not the same situation at all. Like I said I agree with you that they shouldnt have it, but it still seems kinda wrong in a way. Ugh maybe my point is clear here? lol I dunno how else to put it.

HELL NO!

We aren't even done with the two stupid wars the previous president started, no way we need another one. Who gives a flying eff if Iran gets the bomb?. Hell, it would be better if they DID get the bomb...then all this stupid talk of going to war with 75 million people would go the hell away.

Anyone who claims to care about the deficit, needs to shut the hell up about starting another war with a country that is in no position to harm us militarily. Same goes for anyone who claims to care about the military.

Iran is moving towards a secular government, the people there can handle it, if we go in we just have another country we have to spend trillions of dollars and thousands of lives on....for nothing. Not to mention the fact that invading another country in that area is sure to create a world of crap for us from every other mideast country.

If Israel wants to stop them, that's their choice. We give them billions of dollars in aid and billions of dollars in weapons every damn year.....let them "fix" the problem if they want to do so.

Pakistan has the bomb, North Korea can build one...yet no one is advocating going to war with either of them....and they hate our fricken guts more than Iran does. The best possible outcome of all this crap is Iran builds a god damned bomb. I hope they build one tomorrow, so everyone will shut up about war with them and we can do the sensible thing and become most favored trading partners and/or "allies" with them....like we did with China, and Russia, and Pakistan. Then instead of all this crazy talk, we can make money and create jobs by doing business with them. That will help their people a hell of a lot more than blowing them up would, and it would make us a hell of a lot safer too.

Yes. We are already around there with our toys, may as well use what we are spending our tax dollars on.

As long as it isnt ours.

We cant afford it.

If the world doesn't want a nuclear Iran, then they need to pony up the forces and money to deal with it.

I am not worried about a nuclear Iran, they don't have a rocket big enough to lob it far enough to hit us.

All those other poor bastards, that live with in range of their missiles, well that's your issue.

They could cause pain and discontent with oil disruptions, then I say go for it.

Anything that forces us to make the changes that will ween us from the middle eastern oil tit, I support.

No.

If they get nukes and use them they will be gone... I honestly think more people having nukes will probably keep the world a safer place... people will be too scared to invade other people and we can worry about ourselves.

Where's the "Isn't Israel going to take care of this?" option?
