afghanistan was attacked under false pretenses? how so?

you appluad iran for stopping uranium enrichment as if they are making some huge sacrifice...

you still haven't answered why they are enriching uranium in the first place... they weren't exactly transparent about their intentions... if it really was just a civilian atomic project...why not be up front about it the whole time? and once again why enrich uranium when you have plenty of it in the ground?

iran is obviously pursuing a nuclear military option...

then for you to say that countries have been "forced" to do such things b/cof american aggression is ridiculous... iran didn't start its nuclear program when bush named them as part of the "axis of evil"

large scale nuclear programs like iran's don't just fall out of the sky and get to the level they are at today in 3 years... it just isn't possible... it takes nearly a decade to plan and build a nuclear facility... so iran was obviously well on its way even before even 9/11

so how was that caused by american aggression in the middle east? the events in iraq and afghanistan have nothing to do with the nuclear ambitions of iran... just like NK they started their current round of nuclear programs during the 90's

Two simple questions. Well, actually these are simple questions for pretty much everyone except Democrats.

Do you believe that Iran's nuclear program is designed to develop atomic weapons.

If there is even a minimal level of evidence that Iran does have a nuclear weapons program, should we just sit back and let the program continue?

If you substitute the word "Iraq" for the word "Iran" in your message then you may begin to understand.

Yes RH, I don't think we have the guts, not to mention the national will, to do it. Not if you believe the mainstream media. They say Iraq is a quagmire, and that the war on terror is a failure. Others says we should turn it all over to the U.N. to appease France and Germany. What if Iran develops nuclear weapons? Can you imagine? That insane, bloodthirsty, nutcase Ayatollah with a nuke? No way. Israel has already said they'll take it out if they have to. Now that's something, isn't it? The United States may be depending on Israel for it's defense.

If Iran develops weapons of mass destruction, they have to be destroyed. Which means if we have to bomb their reactors, so be it. By the way, here's a question for the undecideds...which do you want...a totalitarian Islamic terrorist state being appeased by the left or one being destroyed by George W. Bush?

the real problem isn't so much that iran would actually do anything with their weapons but the weapons race that would ensue in the region...

obviously a syria caught b/w a nuclear iran and isreal would probably also want weapons in order to keep those 2 from shooting at each other over their air space... then i'm sure saudi arabia would probably join the fun for fear that their interests around the middle east would be at stake as well as egypt who would probably fear some kind of conflict b/w isreal and iran...

it would quickly become a nuclear arms race... the only thing that has been keeping the middle east from attacking itself is that they can all gang up and hate the united states together... but in the face of an arms race they would once again all become enemies...which would be dasasterous

Oh, sorry Donald - I didn't realise, as you have so helpfully explained, that you haven't the bottle for the fight that you have been screaming for.

That's different.

You just go home now where the nasty Rackies and Ranians won't bother you. Nasty ol' blackfellah.

I think that perhaps the local firebrand sermons about hellfire and damnation were a bit strong for you.

And the nuclear bomb ? If it comes, Donald, the writing on the side will not be in Arabic script.

For RH, some days with one brain is clearly not enough. Get your own spare brain in a spiffy 50's style tank Shocked
