The UN keeps sending deadlines to Iran to stop their nuclear power research, when Iran probably has nukes since a while.

You need to see this thread...stat!BN wrote:
Maybe Saddam gave him Iraq's nuke before they were invaded.
No sale, we got lied to once before or and the apologists call it "faulty intelligence".
Let's not start another war we cannot handle.
Far from developing, yes, but from buying them? Read the article. Al-Qaeda itself could have a nuke.Spearhead wrote:
I heard just today that Iran is far from developing nukes.
I think if Al Qaeda had a nuke they'd actually use it, to show the world how completely futile the war on terrorism really is. They would not give or sell it to Iran.sergeriver wrote:

If they are developing they are probably doing it in self defence. They dont want to end up like IraqTetrino wrote:
I don't understand why America has such an issue with Middle-Eastern nations developing nuclear weapons. They themselves have bunches of nukes at their disposal. They don't really mind North Korea making them. What's the deal?
In any case, there is no solid proof of Iran developing and/or buying nukes. Even if they did, what's the deal?
My two cents.
I didn't mean Al-Qaeda would sell the nuke to Iran, but Iran could buy it anywhere if the article is right.Rosse_modest wrote:

What else then do you need to make a nuke?Rosse_modest wrote:

I only skimmed the article, and from what I read it doesnt say anywhere that Iran can buy it. It only says they acquired equipment for fuel enrichment and may also have acquired technical expertise on the making of a nuclear weapon.

Maybe because Amaidadajad(sp) has said specifically he wants to wipe Israel off the face of the planet. Also has made comments about destroying the Western world. I ran is also a terrorist supporting nation i.e. hezbolah (sp).Tetrino wrote:

I find it strange that some countries are somehow allowed to have nukes when others can't.
"-Look here lad, you give me those nukes right now or I swear there will be trouble!"
"But... You've got nukes."
"That's beside the point! We... Well... You... I'm one of the good guys you see? You belong to the bad guys and that's why we are entitled to have 'em!"
"Ergh... Run that by me again will ya?"
*Sigh*
"Right, we will take this castle by force!"
Sorry about the Python thingy there but I found this whole subject intriguing.
Mr Bush, here's your nuclear armament checklist:
US - OK
France - OK
North Korea - Hell no!
Iran - Are you crazy?!
India - Ok (Even though they haven't signed the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty)
Pakistan - Ok (Even though they haven't signed the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty)
I'm gonna have to copy BN's answer here. Desire. The thing is this equipment can also just be used to enrich the stuff to power plant grade uranium. But this article doesn't say anything about Iran having or buying nuclear weapons, which is what you are saying.sergeriver wrote:

Only problem is, right now I'm a little too lazy and tired to bother researching the whole "US can have nukes but Iran can't" thing, so if you would be so kind as to fill me in...Colfax wrote:

So yeah lets let them develop nukes wipe out Israel and give nukes to terrorists. GREAT IDEA!!!!
And yes we mind North Korea making them. Why do u think all eyes were on N.K. when they were testing rockets.
There is a difference between the U.S. possessing nukes and Iran if you can not differentiate then you need to do some more research.
The only difference I see is that Iran hasn't invaded anyone recently. Sure, they've done a lot of posturing but so has the U.S.Colfax wrote:
