Allen. ..."Lorne -

Again, you seem to think the only two options are doing nothing or attacking militarily. Since the latter won't work, as both Afghanistan and Iraq demonstrate, we'd better find some other alternatives."....

Allen I have already stated that diplomatic efforts are now underway and have been for a couple of years now and that would include sanctions. I thought it was understood that any military action would be a last ditch action when all else failed. Do not understand why you keep saying I have only 2 options?

Allen you have already stated Iran should be prevented from acquiring nukes but you did not offer any suggestions of your own about just how this should be accomplished.

My question>>..."So should the USA and the free world let a fanatic islam controlled country get nukes?"....<<

Your reply>>>>

..."Lorne -

Of course not, if we can help it. Nobody is suggesting that we should take no action to try to prevent our enemies from arming themselves with nukes."....

So what actions do you think should be used?

And from your post....."As you can see from the recent news story I posted, already we have North Korea's foreign ministry saying that pre-emptive strikes are not the sole province of the U.S. The more irrationally we behave as a nation, the more we convince our enemies that they should strike first.".....

I beleive there was an agreement or treaty of some sort signed
during the Clinton adminstration where North Korea agreed not to devolope nukes in return for some sort of aid from the USA.

This attempt at a diplomatic solution failed and IMO North Korea is much less a danger than radical islam with nukes.
