It seems that unless a country already has nuclear weapons, that any attempt to build or acquire large yield weapons is met with sanction, blockade, assasination, or invasion by those that have the power and weapons. I thought that the UN and World Court were created after WWII to prevent this kind of thing from happening again.

If you're a terror nation then you don't get to have nukes. It's pretty scary to think about that nut ball president of Iran with nukes, or the nut ball president of N. Korea with nukes. Both have made numerous threats on other countries. Look at what Saddam did with his WMD, because we played tittle winks with him through 17 resolutions? 100's of 1000's maybe even millions died at Saddams hands.

Common sense.
Some countries are simply more responsible than others - especially when it comes to human rights, respect for its neighbors and a history of violent confrontation as the aggressor.
Does it really make any sense that any country that can harbor, aid, support, fund, train or even tolerate the tactics of the Islamic terrorists should also have nuclear weapons at their disposal?
How about a country that is led by a fanatical and demented dictator that constantly threatens another country with annihilation?
When a dictator or select group wages acts of war and indiscriminate murder in the belief that they and their followers have the objective of world domination as a birth right - it isn't only our responsibility, it is our duty to try and promote a slight attitude change among their leaders.
When these radicals are ignored, history has shown it only emboldens them and leads to more terror.
It may require sanctions, blockades or outright war - but as apathy in the past has clearly shown us, it will certainly require some kind of response!

We are so lame !
first it was Sadam with his weapons of mass destruction. we took care of Him ,
but Oopps we made a mistake he didnt have the mother of all bombs, so if we were wrong when do we say were sorry and fix everything up if we made a mistake admit it and fix it up.
just as we did in the softwood controvercy the world and American courts ordered the government to re-pay Canada the money we had stolen from them with phoney terrifs . Bush agreed and said he would pay them back but with less than half, whats wrong with that? Its just unethical and its cheating.
we better think about what would happen if we did take on Iran in a war, we cant even beat a bunch of 2000 year old soldiers they have nothing but our own bombs and armament we left hanging around and a tonne of riffles and rpg's to use against us, and i may add a few good soldier from the good old USA.
Just stop acting tough .
just bring us back to the country we once were,
stop threatening everyone

mojo's half right. Everybody's scared of some nut getting in power and using them (although Saddam was killing 1000's before 1990, we waited until Kuwaiti oil was seized before we decided to realize what a bast*#d he was). Two problems with the current approach: No matter what you do, eventually, every industrialized nation will have them as nuclear technology becomes yesterday's technology AND what do you do if some nut gets into power in a country that already has them?!

No, you're absoluterly right. I think that maybe we should help Iran develope nuclear weapons and stand back while they use them on us. With people like you inhabiting this Country, what matter does it make anyway? HERE'S YOUR SIGN!!!!!!

Because they possess big weapons and are violent enough to invade sovereign nations unilaterally.
No one messes with rabid dogs.
