A nuclear weapon in the hands of Iran - is only dangerous is Iran is suicidal - Are they?

Question

Lets just say for now -

Iran has a nuclear missle - several

No one is stupid enough to believe that there would be no retaliation for useing such a weapon

Not even the Iran doesn't have any homosexuals President "Im a dinner jacket" could believe that if he launched one 10 wouldn't come back on him

So this appears the crux -

In order for a nuclear weapons arsenal - to be really dangerous in the hands of the Iranian Aylatolah - (The President is not as powerful as one is lead to believe )

We have to accept that Iran is suicidal

That they would launch knowing it equals death for all - ALL of them -

So - are they - Are they that anxious to die in a fire ball of retaliation ?

Niether the Russians nor the Americans wanted to die on mass -

We would respond (insert nation) and make sure the other side dies too but we won't strike first

We know what the response would be

As trigger happy as the US is and generally insane as the Russians can be -

Niether as it turns out wanted to commit suicide

Are the Iranians - different ?

Answer 1

was Germany suicidal to attack all of Europe and then attack Russia? They would never do that!!!
Nuclear Weapons are a mass killing tool, used to kill citizens and destroy cities, not military.
"I'm a dinner Jacket" made his intentions clear. So maybe we should prevent them from getting the weapon?

Answer 2

Only thing wrong with your thoughts is, The US is not trigger happy. A bit crossing the line on that statement. Other than that excellent point. I do believe that Iran is a dangerous Country and would do it. Their leader is a crazy man. And there are gays in Iran. If you watch TV and saw the Special they had on the History channel, you would find out that there are a lot of gays in Iran. They were even on camera talking about how they feel about having to hide. Iran is a very suicidal Country. And I believe they are anxious to die in a fire ball.

Answer 3

Are the masses suicidal....no.

But what you have to REALLY ask is what is the motivation of the people who control the nukes. Ahmadinejad is religious zealot who reports to the fundamentalist imams of Iran. Their particular sect believes that the Muslim version of Armageddon is at hand and that the only way to speed up this "glorious" time in history is to create chaos and blood shed on earth. And if that means the death of thousands of Muslims...they are OK with that.

Answer 4

Its dangerous to place nuclear weapons in the control of people who talk frequently about killing Jews, about 12th-Imams, and the so called coming end of the world.

What makes it worse is when their arch enemy (US) is run by leaders and an increasing number of people who, similarly believe in second comings and the end of the world.

The only reason we all aren't dead right now is because the past leaders of Russia and the US were generally sane, level headed people who did not want to die.

Now, you have leaders who believe dying (or the mass murder of millions) in the name of their political or religious cause is good, as they will be rewarded in some sort of afterlife.

Answer 5

Iranians really are crazy enough. They believe Allah will protect them. In fact, Iran believes it has already defeated the US and Europe and that nothing can stop them.

Answer 6

Well that Iran President kept saying what he was going to do and now that he knows we will fight back and do what is necessary, it is amazing how the story has changed. More BS, Iran is suicidal and if anyone thinks this last report regarding Iran is true, they are very wrong. Iran is a threat to US and if we let our guard down, we are fools.

Answer 7

nuclear weapon in any hands, consider to be dangerous, even when it is in US hands (if you still remember Japan).
why you think that it is dangerous only when it is in Iran?! why it is not the same feeling when it is in (Israel hands)!!!?
why there are always many principles in such issue?

Answer 8

no one inthe word belive that USA is write . USA thinks that can roll all the word . it is proved that IRAN does not thinking about atomic missiles even in future IRAN DO NOT need to have atomoc bome or missiles . actully the problem is that USA does not like IRAN goverment . that is the only resalt. At the time of shah of IRAN .(before this goverment) IRAN hadd a agreements with many goverments to use neuclear ENERGY , but now whats happen to them .

Answer 9

Iran is a much much more responsible country than USA.

Answer 10

Great point.

"The freedom message brings us together; it doesn't divide us. I believe that when we overdo our military aggressiveness, it actually weakens our national defense. We stood up to the soviets, they had 40,000 nuclear weapons. Now we're fretting day in and day out about third world countries that have no army, navy, or air force and we're getting ready to go to war."
