They've not sufficiently provoked us for a nuclear attack. Not that I want it to get to that point, but there's many steps to be taken inbetween.
And nuclear war is not inevitable - look at the Cold War. Even when it became a hot war (Vietnam, Korea, Afghanistan), the nukes stayed within their silos.

Nuclear war is not inevitable. It has never happened in fifty-plus years of nuclear proliferation, not even during the collapse of the Soviet Union when it would have been most likely. There's this little thing called "mutually assured destruction" that means a country who starts a nuclear war won't be around to finish it. I realize this may be difficult for some people to believe, but idiots don't become world leaders, and a world leader would have to be an idiot to start a nuclear war.

A nuclear war is not inevitable. It is not acceptable to nuke someone because they may be developing weapons - how is that not hypocritical? America and other countries should not be complaining about anything nuclear while they still have their own nukes, and America has the least right to nuclear weapons out of all the countries in the world as it is the only country with a history of using nuclear weapons.

Do you realize if we nuke anyone, the fallout will get into the air currents (because we're not God & we cannot stop this from happening) & everyone will eventually suffer? The soil will be as contaminated as the soil at Chernoble in Russia where people suffer worst types of cancer & deformities than Japan where this generation STILL suffers from the bombs we dropped there during WWII. Nuclear facilities should be disbanded for the survival of all mankind. The only control we have over this situation is prayer & belief God will not allow our world to die even though we are sinners & deny Him.

The worst idea ever.Please ,so it's OK for us to nuke another country for some stupid reason(we don't even now for sure if they have nuclear weapons).Yes ,great let's start another war,maybe this time we might win,'cos Iraq and Afghanistan aren't looking very well.U all who think like this should stop a moment and reflect over how many people are loosing their lives just 'cos some countries think they are superior to other.And a nuclear war can be avoided.

Ummm...NO. Nuclear War is not inevitable. Even if Iran and N. Korea have nukes, they are more a political negotiating tool more than a weapon. The threat of using them is a great bargaining tool, even if you never intend on using them...so long as your opponents think you might use them. If we want them to dismantle, we need to give them a reason to do so...and "or else i will nuke you" is not a reason. They both know we won't nuke them unless attacked first.

You do, how cute... that would immediately destroy our economy because Iran is an OPEC member and without thier production the price of oil would skyrocket. Big Oil companies would never allow it to happen in the first place so even if you were president you would be blasted from the grassy knoll like others who tried to mess with their interests.
wake up son, this is a globalized world now, you petty little patriotism and fear is just a speck of sand on a beach you don't understand.

i assume you're youthful, and did no longer stay in the process the chilly conflict. using nuclear weapons is between the main terrifying threats to humanity that exists. i'm a incredible wing, difficult center conservative Hawk. I undergo in suggestions Vietnam. even however, I additionally comprehend that once any nuclear capacity pulls the set off, there is not any longer something to end the others from doing so. it truly is been our tenuous restraint that has prevented nuclear holocaust interior the fifty or so years considering the fact that international locations different than us stepped forward nuclear weapons. We truly have an truly defeatist physique of suggestions. for the time of WWII (my Dad's conflict) we fought a worldwide conflict against 2 fantastically state-of-the-artwork and nicely geared up enemies. And we won. It replace into limitless conflict. It replace into struggling with to win. In Vietnam, 'regulations of Engagement' political limitations and political interference in militia affairs led to us to combat a constrained conflict, which we lost. it truly is not available to combat a constrained conflict and win. there is no kinder, gentler conflict. conflict is hell! it truly is brutality that i'm particular you won't be able to think of. even however, in case you throw away the ROE, and flow away the politicians at domicile, the yank GI can beat all of us, every time. So, we don't ought to ruin the worldwide with nukes. study history (I desire all of our legislators had to verify history formerly working for place of work). except you study from history, you would be doomed to repeat it.

OH THE BELOVED DOUBLE STANDARD. SURE, EVERYONE ELSE HAS TO BUT NOT US. FACE IT, THERE IS NO CHANCE OF COMPLETELY ERATICATING THE NUKES. BESIDES, TO HAVE NUKES IS A MEANS OF HAVING LEVERAGE IN A CONFLICT. IN OTHER WORDS, DON'T MAKE ME USE THIS CUZ I WILL. GET THE DRIFT?
THESE COUNTRIES AREN'T NECCESARILY THE ONES TO WORRY ABOUT ANYWAY. YOU MIGHT WANT TO KEEP YOUR EYES ON SMALLER MILLITANT AND TERRORIST GROUPS FUNDED BY OUTSIDE SOURCES. THESE GROUPS MIGHT ACTUALLY USE THEIR WEAPONS FOR MORE THAN A PISSING CONTEST................
