1. How is that not an act of war?
   
Seems to me that should be an act of war, or at the very least a violation of some sort of international law

You would rather have Iran be able to refine its uranium to weapons grade purity?

6. You mean an international law like the nuclear non-proliferation treaty?
   
That sort of international law?

Breaking the law to keep people from breaking the law was sorta our complaint about the last administration.

International law kind of takes a back seat to survival. Iran works closely with Hezbollah and Hezbollah attacks Israel.

17. Yeah, apparently some people think,
   
that they have no right to tell another country what weapons they are allowed or not allowed to have. Apparently some people think that railing against nuclear proliferation while you are sitting on the worlds largest nuclear stockpile is... hypocritical.

What assholes.

18. Iran signed a treaty saying they wouldn't develop nuclear weapons
   
But--voila!--lookie what they're doing!

The US had nuclear weapons long before the NNPT was written. The US hasn't expanded it's arsenal, which was the goal of the treaty.

19. Oh and we've never broken a treaty...
   
And that does not answer my question. Ok they signed a treaty. Why should they not have a right to break it? We invaded and pretty much leveled the country next to them. On false pretenses. The US decided to invade Iraq and made up whatever excuses they needed to do so. 9/11, WMD's, Saddam. We don't even know how many people were killed, hundreds of thousands?

Put yourself in their shoes. Say we didn't have any WMD's to play the MAD game, and some country invaded Canada. Would you not think about arming yourself to the teeth to make sure they didn't get any ideas about making you next?

28. Yeah, but it's only terror if it's directed at us. Or people who look like us.
   
See how that works?

Not when it stops a nut job that's in charge of a Country and wants to wipe Israel off the face of the World, you primitive. Would you rather Israel and the U.S. drops some bombs?

OK, we'll bomb them and plunge the entire region into war instead.

26. Thanks, TPTB, you just proved to the world WHY Iran is getting nukes.

It is because the mullahs want to A: dominate the region (remember little simpleton that the various other Arab governments also do not want a nuclear Iran) and B: finish with Adolf Hitler started.

That's one major understatement!

You do know that as soon as they get a nuclear weapon they have stated they will turn Israel into glass right?

As far as I know, no nuclear power, not even N' Korea has stated they intend to evaporate another country. Iran has stated this several times. They think it will bring on the 13th Imam, or what ever ****in' number it is today!

Do you have any idea what they mean by this?

Armageddon! Doesn't sound like a very good idea to me. You?

I just don't think we need to annihilate the human race in order to give these pricks what they want. I myself don't buy that Islam bull shit! I will never follow a religion written by a ****in' pedophile! But, that's just me.

Join up with the Revolutionary Guard and defend Iran's right to nuke U.S. military assets and Israeli territory then, DUmpmonkeys.

Anything that sets Amadingynutjob's nuke program back a few years is a good thing. 

PERIOD! 

If you are too stoopid to realize nukes in the hands of religious fanatics is a bad thing, then you are too stoopid to live.  Please go to the nearest bridge/cliff/tall building, and throw yourself off.  You'd be better off, and so would we.

George W. Bush is responsible for Palin. Had he not stolen Ohio in 2004, President Kerry would have been seared into the White House, and Palin would never have come out of Alaska in 2008.
