Bald Eagle, re: "This is a regime that never lost its intention to have such programs and have such weapons."

The quick answer is "so what." MOST of the "regimes" of the world would choose to have such programs and such weapons, if that were a viable option. This is even more true in view of the announced "preemptive doctrine" of the U.S. Our own nation is still actively engaged in such weapons programs and production to an extent that dwarfs all the other wmd weapons programs in the world.

Should we "preemptively" attack every other nation that wants to have such weapons? If not, what exactly is the fair, farsighted and just position that we should take on this complicated and dangerous issue? I'd like to hear your views on this, including your views on what justifies our own tremendous arsenal of wmds and our continuing research and development of more effective wmds while we take every opportunity to remind the world what a scourge such weapons are.
