Maybe we will have wished that we could have found a way to have Ron Paul as our President in a years time? You know, let them have their bomb. Iran Defiant as Nuclear Talks Fail "The U.N. nuclear watchdog ended its latest mission to Iran after talks on Tehran's suspected secret atomic weapons research failed, a setback likely to increase the risk of confrontation with the West." ------------------ Khamenei: No Obstacles Can Stop Iran's Nuclear Course "Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Wednesday that Iran's nuclear course would not change regardless of international sanctions, assassinations or other pressures." ----------------- Iran Would Lower Oil Exports if Demand Drops "Iran would lower its oil exports if it sees demand for its crude dropping and will not sell to any company that sells it to Britain or France," |

Why not let them have their bomb? We let Russian, China, India, Pakistan, England, France, Israel, North Korea and ourselves have the bomb. Are you willing to go to war to stop them from getting one? And if you are, are you willing to stay in Iran militarily forever to make sure they don't ever get one? |

Interesting, rivers, while you're against Keystone because of risks, despite worse risks, you for letting another nation develop nukes. |

No, I'm wondering if we should have given Ron Paul more support. So, are you saying that you're thinking of supporting (or should support) Ron Paul? He pretty much has said the same thing you just wrote. |

Don't blame it on me. The blame, imo, goes directly to the door of Israel. I haven't said I was against keystone either. What I've said is that I think it will be built, but taking a different route than through the Sand Hills and the Ogallala Aquifer. |

I agree with Ron Paul on his view about our interference in other countries affairs. That's about all I agree with him on, though. |

Can't help but wonder though, why nobody answered the question I posed. |

You mean, let them have their bomb? Some worry about whether they (Iran's leaders) will carry out their threat against Israel (and some don't worry about it at all). Some worry that if they do Israel will retaliate with their nukes in full. Some worry that Iran may supply terrorists with dirty nuke bombs. Some (Arab Sunni countries) worry Shiite Iran getting the bomb when they don't. Some (who knows who?) might even like to see the chaos a nuclear Iran would bring. I suppose enough worry to go around. It's a huge conundrum. A nuclear threat on the one hand vs a significantly reduced oil availability on the other. Neither good for now.... until the world's non-polluting, alternative energy source is ready to satisfy the needs of the world. |

That's one, but these are the ones I was referring to. "Are you willing to go to war to stop them from getting one? And if you are, are you willing to stay in Iran militarily forever to make sure they don't ever get one? " |
