So should the USA and the free world let a fanatic islam controlled country get nukes?

Let me ask you a question. Do you believe that they would launch a nuke attack on the US? If they did that, then we would retaliate and they would have in essence committed suicide.

Do you think that the leaders of Iran, Syria and Egypt really want to martyr themselves?

Suicide bombers usually come from the ranks of the poor and the uneducated. The down trodden, lonely, angry and abused. While it's true that these folks do exist, suicide bombers that is, it's also true that they are "cultivated" to do their mission by others. These others usually have no intention of commiting suicide themselves. If so why didn't Yasser Arafat martyr himself?. UBL? Saddam? Can you name me one Arab leader that martyred himself?

No these people use the suicide bombers to do their bidding. These people are their weapons. They don't have cruise missiles...they have suicide bombers. Basically these folks are brainwashed. But the environment from which they come from lends itself well to conditions of martyrdom. Poverty, depression, despair, hunger, anger. If you lived under these conditions you too would be ready for martyrdom. You're going to trade hell on earth for heaven.

Ok the point I'm trying to make is that, no Arab leader is going to launch a nuclear attack on the US...unless they have a death wish themselves. And to date no Arab leader has yet to have been shown to have a death wish. Even the leaders of the Taliban do not do suicide and martyrdom.
