Default So What If Iran Builds A Bomb....So What!!!

Who the heck are we to tell Iran "NO BOMB"...I mean come on....they are currently the strongest country in that region except for Israel.

Pakistan, India, Russia, China. Japan, Israel, North Korea all have bombs and all of them are reasonably close to them.

Also...hard not to argue with them that if you have a nuke...America will think twice before coming in...think North Korea here.

They are not going to use it...it would spell their doom if they use it. forget the martyr stuff...that's for the low level runners in radical Islam...the bigshots are all big babies.

So, anyways...a low level post on my part stating my opinion...I don't have the energy to research and I'm not sure I really care anyways.

You forgot about Iraq which, by virtue of being the 51st state of the US possesses many nukes. Ameriraq is by far the most powerful state in the ME.

Remember the discussion on oil reserves and the undeveloped oil of the Caspian Basin. You know the western oil companies will do everything they can to control the flow of oil from there to here - but how?
Ever see a map of Iran?

You make some really good points. I guess that it just adds to the lack of incentive for people to invade them and I would think that's what they want. As you said, leaders are NOT suicidal. Note that Bin Ladin and others send others to die.
The problem with them building a nuke is if someone more lunatic gets hold of the technology. While their current leadership isn't suicidal, who knows what might happen in the future?
From a US standpoint, I imagine that the Pentagon would like to keep open the option of invading, or at least attacking, Iran. Them having nukes lessens that option significantly. A future, highly aggressive, Iranian regime could be very difficult to stop if it, say, invaded non-Shia Iraq or Saudi Arabia.
In defence of Iran, they were attacked by Iraq, backed sometime after the invasion by US support of various sorts. So, they do have some grounds for fearing a future invasion by us.

I would say that, given what we have done to Iraq, everyone has reason to fear an invasion by the US. No real reason beyond "fighting TWOT" is necessary.

Someday every country in the world will have a Bomb, even the "Goolamba People" in the Amazon Jungle will have a Nuke, doesn't the bible say that the end of the world will be "FIRE", then Bush will finally be gone. "yup, no more Bush"

Thats why the flying saucers won't land here and make friends, they know whats coming, they are gathering all over our galaxy to watch the fireworks, they come from as far away as Exola, it has taken some of them 20 billion light years to get here, every so often some of them zoom in for a closer look, Jimmy Sissy Carter saw one, they saw him and laughed their a$s off.
