"The Iranians continue to promote their nuclear program and are accumulating abilities that will enable them to attack using nuclear weapons at any time they want,"
If in the past arriving at nuclear capabilities was dependent on overcoming technological obstacles, today, in Iran, it is dependent on their decision alone to bring about the creation of a nuclear bomb."

The world will sit back and do nothing and our government will lead the way. Muslims with nuclear weapons? Could get interesting, especially since we don’t have anyone with the cajones to do anything.
Think about this, the NY Car Bomber became a US Citizen, had a master degree, looked like a halfway decent guy, could have lived the American dream, yet through his entire life way for his stupid religious nonsense. Who thinks for a moment than Iran won’t use thier nukes the moment they get them?
“Who thinks for a moment than Iran won’t use thier nukes the moment they get them?”
Our Dear Leader. He’s certain that by “being nice” everyone will be his friend and we won’t have to worry about being attacked ever again. He’s oblivious to the fact that the Broadway bomber is simply the latest proof that puts a lie to his naive assumptions.
If annihilating them is out of the question, then we will have to break their power and keep them out of civilized countries.
We can look at terrorism the same way. Our National Security says it is protecting our country and at the same time they allow muslim training camps all across our country. Our people aren’t stupid, so the only thing I can come up with is that there are people in our government that want these training camps within our borders. There must be people in our government that want Iran to have nuclear weapons. There must be people in our government that want a nuclear war in the Middle East, and for sure want Iran to attack Israel. If we don’t change things in our government and change them fast, the whole thing is going to blow up in our faces. I fear for our kids of the future and of today. We were once a strong people. We need to get back to that point.
Obummer is too stupid to do that to Iran.
Muslims already have nuclear weapons. It’s called Pakistan, where the Times Square bomber comes from.
Hopefully those nukes are under control of someone with brains.
What scares the $&%* out of me is the possibility that Iran could use one or a very few nukes to engage in an EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse) attack on this country. Such an attack could kill 90% of Americans within a year (mainly due to starvation). Yes, you read that correctly - 90% dead in 1 year - this is no joke, this is not a drill. Check out “One Second After” http://www.onesecondafter.com/ and http://www.shtfplan.com/emergency-preparedness/emp-threat-within-one-year-9-out-of-10-americans-would-be-dead_05042010
I just wonder if anything will be done to prevent this (taking out Iran’s nuke program comes to mind, as does upgrading our grid and salting away lots of spares of the irreplaceable huge transformers that form the backbone of our grid). Not that I’m not holding my breath.
Store food and grow it, folks.
This a reply of Iraq. People desperately want to believe that Iran has nuclear weapons so we can have another multi-billion nation building war.
No one in their right mind wants to invade Iran.
Anyhow, nation-building is a very bad use of the military. The job of the military is to deter war or, failing that, to prevail. In either case, you must have both the capacity to break (many) things and kill (many) people, plus the will to do so.
Deterring Iran, if that is possible (Western concepts of rationality may not be applicable to Messianic Moslems), will come from that capability and will, and the actual destruction of Iran’s nuclear capacity (that is to say, the effective destruction of that capacity - one need not destroy every last piece of equipment to eliminate the program as a threat to us) is all about breaking things. Further, I believe that the simple use of overwhelming and widespread destructive capabilities in Iran will deter others. Screw nation-building, let’s do some nation-destroying. It is far cheaper and more effective.
