Ah, the hell with it:
Iran should crank up its nuke program and make huge big nuke bombs, lots of them.
It is the only way to negotiate with the U.S. for a nuke-free world.
It pisses me off that the U.S. does not see the obviousness of this issue.
For the next decade, Iran is just pissing into its own water, but one of these days its negotiation plan may actually cause the U.S. to think twice about making so many nukes.
Of course, if I were in charge I would just get rid of all the nukes. But, the biggest of jesus-bombs is a savior to their worshipers.
...the president who would deal with this leaves in 2 months. Now, we get to see Barak the magic negro beguile them out of the bomb...
RE:''Low-level enriched uranium is used to produce nuclear fuel but enrichment at higher levels makes it suitable for use in nuclear weapons.''
It takes twice as long to go from raw uranium to fuel grade uranium as it does to go from fuel grade to weapons grade.
Short of an invasion by an overwhelming force, he Iranians will not give up on their nuclear program. Why should they? It is justified for a host of reasons. It is surrounded by countries capable, singly or in concert, of launching an overwhelming force against it.
It is time for the US to fish or cut bait. We either declare war on Iran, or we decide to find a way to reduce the value of Iran's resources to us and the rest of the world. The only responsible and moral course of action is the latter.
All the Iraqis need to do right now to be rid of our troop presence is to continue postponing action on the pending status of forces agreement. Iran will almost certainly encourage that inclination on the part of the Iraqi Parliament. All we are going to do is heave a huge sigh of relief and withdraw--assuming the President-elect isn't completely nuts.
