Oh yes Jay! and THEN what about North Korea and THEN...... geez, where
does it stop? Better get the mothers in the U.S. to crank out a LOT more
babies, 'cause we're going to be needing soldiers for awhile....

While Iran is the last that I'd want to have Nuclear weapons, still,,, in
terms of an objective evaluation of fairness, let me get this right..... WE
are entitled to having nuclear weapons as a deterrent to attack,,,, but
certain OTHERS can't have them for the same reason? For the reason of;
"Because the U.S. , said so?" Even though the U.S. is the only one to have
EVER used nuclear weapons in a war?

While I'm NO friend of Iran (although the U.S. used to be friends with them,
until the leader of the time, made the mistake of not doing what we told him
to do), don't you think,,, if you were in THEIR shoes and watching a major
power blast your neighbors into the sand that YOU might be thinking of
having one of those nuclear deterrent 'thingies' too?

While I'd rather not see more nukes around the world, I've never understood
how we could argue how only we and a choice few others were allowed to have
them.

Don't others (countries) have the 'right to bear arms' (even if those arms
'glow')?
