Pakistan has already developed its own nuclear arsenal. I don't necessarily see this as a good thing, but I'm not taking a month off from work to dig a bomb shelter in my back yard, either

India also has had it's own nuclear program for almost 30 years now.

That keeps Pakistan in check, IMO.

But you didin't answer the original question, do you think it's okey dokey for pre-saddam Iraq and present day Iran pursuing a nuclear program.

The way I see it, there's not much of a difference between pre-Saddam Iraq or present-day Iran pursuing a nuclear program and any other nation in the world pursuing a nuclear program.
