Do you think that they would use them as a defensive posture? Would they use them to wipe Isreal off the map as they have said they would like to? Or would they sell them to the highest bider regardless of the buyer's intended use? Does this concern you?

Iran possessing Nuclear technology does not bother me or scare me. but when it becomes weapon grade and they have a delivery system then it will become a issue.
Bombing them now is not in the best interest of the world. but monitoring them is.

It would be a toss up I wuold think between selling them to the highest bidder or wiping Israel off the face of the map. However you second question shouldnt have been..."does this concern you",it should have been "What psycopaths ARENT concerned by this" because personally....that is a very scary thing and you would have to be insane to not fear Iran with nukes. However the one thing you can be sure of, is that they wont be coming over here....not even Iran is that stupid; Especially since we have warheads powerful enough to wipe their entire country off the map...not only that....but if they did launch a missile at us, it would be shot down halfway across the Atlantic.

Iran has made it plain what they would do with Nuclear Weapons.They plan to rule the world as one big Islamic State.
Nukes will go off anyplace they can get them by any means,Isreal,London,New York,Chicago,LA.
Iran has been funding terrorism all over the world since the 80's.

Not if but when they get nuclear weapons they'll try to bargain.
Unfortunately when you sit down at the nuclear poker game you realize pretty quickly that there are a couple of players with a heck of a lot more chips than you have.
I suspect that unlike the Cold War USSR and US, Ahmadinejad really is ready to martyr his entire country. He's a smart guy, but he's beginning to believe he really is the savior destined to unite the world under Islamic rule.
Look for them to sell the weapons first to avoid being turned into green glass. However that eventuality is pre-ordained.

For all those people who say" well the west has them so why can't other countries?", that is so breathtakingly nieve that it
astonishes me, this is like setting a lawn chair on busy train tracks and watching as the train to hits you because for some insane reason you decided you don't have the right to save your life because it would have meant stopping the train. They will not use them for defense, they are deliberately trying to bring about the end of the world as we know it because they want some "Imam" from the 13th century the "12th Imam" to come out of hiding and save the world. If you don't believe that
read up on it. These people are nuts and I want to know what
all these people are going to say to all those who get one dropped on them when it does happen? OOOOPS? sorry!!.
I just didn't think they'd do it.

It is not the big bad bogeyman the right-wing nuts and Bush make it out to be. Assuming Iran is trying to develop nuclear weapons, whichisn't proven (granted, the nut case they have as a president makes it likely) they are years away from testing a device--and it will be 10 years or more before they can actually deliver one by missle or other means--or produce one small enough for terrorists to use.
If we work on undercutting the viability of the current Iranian regime this won't ever be a problem. Right now, however, the saber-rattling of Bush and his whacko supporters is just helping the extremists currently in power in Iran jsutify their actions and legitimate their position.

Probably all of the above, and yes it concerns me a great deal.

Given their propensity for domination of the area and their rabid hatred for anything western, they will most likely use them against Israel, and maybe even against any US installations in the area.

Are we going to start bombing everybody that is looking at nuclear energy? Why didn't we bomb India? Thousands maybe more innocent people are going to die because of the US imperialism.

Do you think the rest of the world is going to idly look on while we start another war? Russia and maybe even China will intervene and half of the middle-east. I think Mr. Bush needs to think long and hard about this one.
