Rich,

I have little doubt that Iran is going to work towards nuclear weaponry....why not?

The region is now nuclear-armed already with nuclear-armed ships in the Persian gulf and Isra'El having at least 200 nuclear bombs with the missiles to deliver them anywhere on earth!

This is not to say that I am for nuclear weaponry, but if your neighbor has one and has a record of attacking other countries against International law and unprovoked (Isra'El), who would not want to let them know that if your hit us today, we hit you tomorrow?

This is the law of the jungle...we can talk all we like about diplomacy and other niceties, but this is the ultimate currency.

We could even go as far as to say that mutual destruction creates non-violent diplomacy where the war of ideology is fought in the realms of economics, technology, and politics.

Our news media propagandists are now telling us (to believe) that Iran is creating a nuclear arms race in the Middle East.

Our news media propagandists are now telling us that Iran sponsors terrorism.

Perhaps they had better reconsider what they are talking about, AND give us the rest of the story!
