Iranian uranium

[Deckard]

So Iran has "defied the West" and apparently started the process of enriching uranium to 20%. Technically this is still low-enriched, but it could take as little as six months to convert it to weapons grade.

Israel's PM has just said Iran should now face 'crippling sanctions'.

1) Do you believe Iran's claim that it is only pursuing nuclear energy?
2) In your view, are Iran entitled to develop a nuclear weapons program?
3) Would you be willing to live with a nuclear-armed Iran? (Hans Blix says he would)

If diplomacy and sanctions fail, what - if anything - should the rest of the world do about it?

Isreal should face crippling sanctions

Why should they have to claim anything?

2) In your view, are Iran entitled to develop a nuclear weapons program?

They are as entitiled as any other country. Any other view is xenophobic.

3) Would you be willing to live with a nuclear-armed Iran? (Hans Blix says he would)

As willing to live with any nuclear-armed country.

1. I don't believe iran is persuing nuclear energy.....why would they with all that fuckin oil.

2. Who are we (nuclear powers) to say that others can't have them.

3. we will probably have no choice........

If sanctions fail......head for the shelters, as there will more chance of a nuclear war if nutters get the technology

We've been to this movie before. . .

If someone were to say 'Obliterate Nazi's!' you wouldn't think twice.

Zionism is evil - the equvalent of Nazism.

Any group that believes their theology affords political gain must be stopped - by any means.

Zionism ≠ Judaism

Unfortunately, to express opposition to Zion, is considered antisemetic. Nothing could be further from the truth.

google:

Irgun
Haganah
King David Hotel
Deir Yassin
Al-Kabri
Kafr Qasim

I could go on and on.

Isreal should be wiped from the map, just as Nazi Germany was.

O.K., but then the other country obliterating another country then becomes the Nazish type thing they are saying they don't like, no? I mean, I really didn't want to comment on this as I don't truely know the entirety of opposing tensions in this region to make a clear comment.

So there is a crazy right in the area. I'm SHOCKED!!! Are you part of the crazy left in the area? Or more center? Or center-right? Or center-left? Or center-center. Oh just forget it all, wanna smoke a joint and go to an Underworld show? And, I mean, don't look at me I don't have any, but hoping you would or something.

No, a people have a right to defend themselves.
And to take up the fight of the oppressed is noble.
