We're not serious about stopping nuclear proliferation, if we were, we'd still be drastically decreasing our nuclear arsenal and we wouldn't have let Israel develop them (and certainly wouldn't have let them keep them secret). This is about punishing a country we don't like, even though we not only had a serious hand in screwing them up, we decided (under a Republican administration) to arm them ourselves when it served our purposes. True story.

There's a good reason why the club of nuclear nations remains a highly exclusive one.

Because we want it that way and because it's really pretty tough to make a nuclear weapon.

The reality is that most people today do not remember what it was to live under the threat of nuclear attack. I can remember when as kids we went to Cub Scout meetings and spent two hours learning about nuclear bombs and "what to do" in case of a nuclear attack. When we had "fallout shelters" all over the place. Our neighbors actually built a concrete shelter outside their house. Although it would have been useless they didn't know that.

The Left have very short memories, collectively, on a lot of this stuff.

As far as I can tell many of them can't remember 9/11. Let alone, any nuclear threat.
