Iran is run by an insane leadership. They MUST be taken out now. Israel must be sure that the American's are behind them, Obama the spineless, will not resupply the Israeli's should they strike Iran. I would be willing to donate monies to the cause. I'll buy the first round of bullets as a symbolic gesture.

Iran’s leadership should consider their options before simply restricting access to what they are doing. The fact that they are operating equipment that produces nuclear resonant frequency that is impossible to deny indicates the fact that they are using equipment that can be used in bomb making. It is impossible to shield or hide or place that equipment in a hole that is deep enough not to be accurately pin pointed. We can see what they are doing from space, the moon or anywhere on the planet. What we cannot say with certainty is what are they doing exactly. Iran claims to be producing electrical energy…but their claim and the facts of electrical distribution do not match. If all they were doing is making electricity they would not get called to account for their actions from anyone about what they are doing, if they allowed and encouraged unrestricted access of UN Inspectors. But no they want to act like we should just trust them and let them make whatever behind closed doors. This obstructionist diplomacy is not acceptable and we should simply bomb their targetable sites so that they know the importance of open UN inspections. Inspections or get bombed into the stone age. You choose.

Sawali… A unifying fact regarding Nuclear weapons is that they are excessively destructive…destroying not just an encampment but potentially millions of civilians with all of their diverse views. It is this realization that has unified everyone with nuclear weapons against their use. We are not about to entrust others, who we do not trust, give the gift of such knowledge and ability to demonstrate their their respectability by simply giving them a nuclear weapon without earning the right. We do not need weapons we could never use but we are stuck with the historic facts and their responsibility. It is a tragic responsibility. That same sense of responsibility has been demonstrated in out handling of communicable disease, where we seek to limit the spread of plagues. Some day we wii give up our nuclear maintenance completely…when the world is finally settled without the potential for their use.
That leader is a nuisance at this time, underneath all that third world nonsense, he is a weak pathetic human being.

I think the USA needs to stay out of it. We can not have nukes ourselves and tell other countries they can't have them.

When will they ever learn ?
The U.S. has nukes, so who are we to tell others they can't have them. We started the trend. The other countries prob got them b/c they were afraid of what the U.S. can do .

The Nuclear weapon was completed in the US, when the war with Germany was already over.and it was used on Japan instead. The devastation and deaths were horrific. There are nine countries that have Nuclear weapons . Britton, Soviet Union, France, USA, China, North Korea, India, Pakistan and Israel. If we try to stop Iran by force to develop Nuclear weapons, we might very well end up in another war. I would be more worried about Pakistan and India who both have nuclear weapons and are always at odds with each other.

International pressure must continue against Iran developing nuclear destructive power.
Ann, good analysis. Now shouldn't the world be screaming at these nine countries instead of picking IRAN. It seems you are more worried about India and Pakistan and not so much Iran but I am worried about everybody including the one with experience. This has to be stopped collectively then Iran will gladly obliege.

Another country does not have the right to tell another country what weapons they may or may not have.

Anything can be a weapon. Peanuts are a nice example. For peanuts to be a weapon you would have to produce them in great abundance, sell them more cheaply than any other food crop, refine them into every other food product and build dependency on peanuts for every conceivable product. Control the educational system to abolish awareness of any other food source. Criminalize the use of any other food source and once absolute dependency is established have a “crop failure”. Nuclear weapons are cheap, quick and dirty. Both methods are effective and neither is humane. The end of inhumanity requires a model of what is humane in every culture shared by all.

There are weapons that are more devastating than nuclear weapons, depending upon their application and intent. Nuclear weapons have a potential for converting vast landscapes into un-inhabital ash pits. By a strange coincidence, money has the same potential and also the pen. Odd that nukes would be a weapon most desired by wealthy, ignorant, zealots bent on destroying all that is not them…so we are told. Iran funds the GOP to counter issues that may oppose Iran in congress. Influence peddling to hedge a bet on nuclear potentials and havocking distractions. Our pledge of allegiance and oaths of office are amended by the blinding veil of money.
We made atomic bombs first to end a war more efficiently…a lower cost of life and to prevent the destruction of a great culture, Japan. Now money has become a potent weapon of global influence trading for the spread of nuclear weapons. The anonymity of money gives rise to conflict and feeds the corruptible with their favorite addiction.

What to do with Iran is one question I don't have an answer for. I only hope that Iran will fail in their efforts to get nuclear capability and/or Iranian peple will somehow get a more rational leadership.
USA owning and being the only country in the world to use atomic bombs against another country, please keep in mind that if the USA did not do this, additional millions of people would have died during WWII. Also the official language spoken today in Asia (at least) would have been Japanese and in the (very "unified") Europe, German

My thoughts are we need to figure out how to end end end all of the wars. There are other solutions. Disagreements can be battled out by means of sports competitions. Dance competitions. Who can stay on there knees and pray the longest. Who can spell the best. Who can learn and speak the most languages. We have so many other solutions, but we choose the dumbest one. Dropping bombs on others. And what is sad is that many are voting for war.

I respectfully disagree with Colleen. I don't think that we can responsibly stay out of it and I don't think that it's hypocritical to try to control the use of a technology that has such potentially devastating repercussions. Neuclear technology started out as a desperate race between Nazi Germany and the U.S. The U.S. attempt to be the first to successfully construct an atomic bomb was justified by the fact that a megnamonicial maniac was almost in reach of the same goal. For Hiller to achieve success was unthinkable. It was synonymous with a chess game where the U. S. was forced to assume an unwanted defensive move that could have awful repercussions.
Unfortunately, technology is like the geni that is hard, if not impossible, to get back into the bottle. Can you think of any technology that was discarded for any reason, but being replaced by a more advanced technology? Once that power was unleashed, it was there to stay, the only course of action was to try and control it's dissemination.
Iran is considered a terrorist state and they support most ot the prominent organizations that represent that horrendous philosophy. They foment discord and death in the countries they disagree with and are obvious in their support of other repressive regimes and if given the chance will cause untold disastersin the middle east which would reach us in the most unthinkable way, another terrorist attack. Unfortunately, the only thing that Iran understands is coercion. The world must use all the tools at our disposal to force Iran to disgard it's neuclear program both diplomacy and sanctions first, then more forceful methods later, if necessary.
What you have with neuclear technology is the old analogy about the knife and the gun. Don''t bring a kife to a gunfight. The only solution here is persuasion and failing that, superior force.
