I mean maybe they would nuke Israel but they aren't stupid. Think about it. We all know what would happen if anyone nuked anyone in todays world. There would be a massive nuclear war. I don't care if Iran dealt arms to Iraq, there isn't even solid evidence that that happened. But Iran hating Israel has nothing to do with the U.S. Our brown nosing leaders should back off.

It's because of the "golden rule" ... He who has the gold makes the rules.

I remember the president of iran on worldwide live tv calling for the destruction of Israel, and for it to be wiped off the map. I'm not a fan of Israel, but damn, do you really think that country needs a nuclear weapon? I dont think so.

Becuase the US has a stable democracy and no one man has the power to launch a Nuclear Warhead (Not even the President), and the US's people in charge that would fire the weapon are educated and have good heads on their shouldeirs. While ONE man could start a World-Wide Nuclear War w/ the push of a button; and that one man is literally, crazy.

the us isnt likely to blow any innocent people up and iran is cuz theyre all nuts about dying for the sake of allahs holy war or whatever. their country is ruled by crazy clerics
on the other hand countries like iran wouldnt have such a negative view of america if they werent trying to be the world police all the time
i would say let them sort it out themselves if iran didnt already hate the U.S.

Iran cannot be permitted to have nuclear weapons because their declared intention -- openly and publicly -- is to destroy Israel and the United States.
The United States (and Israel for that matter) are permitted to have nuclear weapons because they are free, rights-respecting nations that do not fight wars of conquest or aggression.

Because there is a real danger they would allow weapons to fall into the hands of terrorists who would not hesitate to use them and Israel would only be one of the targets.
They have declared they will strike at US interests globally, so think about all the other places that the US is involved in

iran signed the NPT agreeeing not to make a nuclear bomb,that same agreement gives them the right to make nuclear power though. only one country in the ME has threatened to use nukes on their neighbors,a country that did not sign the NPT and won't openly admit to having nukes.

All of our government is equal, so all of our leaders would have to agree before doing something along those lines, and then the U.N would also have a say so. With Iran though, they could just fire it whenever.

Because Iran has not signed and does not want to be part of the Geniva Convention. We have nucular bombs, and so does everyone else who is on it. Russia, Koria. We all have limited amounts too. The point of the Geniva Convention is to create control, and I ran doesn't want to be a part of that.
