I don't see why should countries like Iran be prevented from developing nuclear weapons.

We're not. Thus far, nine other nations have publicly confirmed that they possess nukes. At least that many more are known to have weapons-grade nuclear material, though they publicly deny it.



You were saying?

we're not the only ones. W e are the only ones to have used them if thats what you mean.There are several recognized nuclear powers in this world The US, Russia, UK, Pakistan, India, France, China, and North Korea. Israel is undeclared but is widely known to posses them. What people dont know is there are even some countries considered de facto nuclear states because producing Nukes wouldnt take much time at all.



Japan, Germany, Brazil, Canada, Australia, South Africa and Turkey could all produce nukes within a years time and in Japans case within 6 months. They have the materials or know how to be the 3rd largest nuclear power if they wanted to be.



Even further, and i can guarantee nobody else here knows this, there are countries in this world that have whats called nuclear sharing. Belgium, The Netherlands, and a few other NATO countries have US built pre positioned tactical nuclear weapons on their soil and could be used by the host country. They remain under US control in peacetime but are released to said host countries in a crisis.

Russia, China, India, Pakistan, Britain, France and North Korea (sort of) also have nuclear weapons. Israel unofficially has them as well.



And no, Iran shouldn't be prevented from having nuclear weapons. It's meddling on our part and I find it interesting the same people who don't believe we should intervene in Syria think we should intervene in a far more powerful country like Iran to stop them from having nuclear weapons.



The sad fact is, if their government, people and scientific institutions are set on getting the bomb, there is very little that can be done to stop them short of military force. If a country like North Korea was allowed by the world to get the bomb, I don't see what the problem is with Iran having it.

We keep nuclear weapons because other countries have their own too. If one country drops a nuke on us, we will fire back. It's called MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction). Also, the UN is created to restore peace as possible and North Korea violates international law by testing their own nuclear weapons systemically which is already banned by international conventions and treaties. North Korea, like Iran, is run by insane leaders wanting to drop a nuke on some country. That's why we keep ours.

You are incorrect. France, Russia, England, China, and Israel have nuclear weapons. We don't want Iran to get such because we believe that they will use them against our or allies interests. After all their leaders are always threatening a certain country that I will not name. This country if attacked with nuclear weapons might destroy all of the country that attacked them.

Many Nations have nuclear weapons.

Russia

China

India

Pakistan

France

Israel

and others.



The difference with Iran is they have vowed to use them as soon as they get them.

Other Nations have them as a deterrent, defensively, while Iran promises to use them offensively.

Many countries have nuclear weapons. Try to keep up skippy. What is not in the best interests of the world is for countries with insane leaders to be allowed to develop nukes.

Russia, China, and a few others like Israel and some clandestine European country probably have them. Places like Iran and NK aren't allowed to have them because they're lead by people who openly express their hatred and willingness to destroy the West. Do you really think those guys should get WMDs?

The USA, the UK, France, Russia, Pakistan, India and China officially have nuclear weapons. We have them because we cannot trust each other enough to get rid of them. If we can't trust each other, how likely are we to want nukes in the hands of a madman like the Ayatollah?

Just as you'd probably not mind if an insane citizen, here, buys himself a class 3 firearm? Same idea. You don't let insane governments own nukes.



America isn't the only one with nukes either.
2013-09-14 05:15:32 UTC
The world finds it troubling when a country that openly advocates for the total destruction of another country wants to build a nuke bomb....but I guess that doesn't bother you?

2013-09-14 05:07:24 UTC
The US are the only ones who are allowed to have nukes because we're the only ones with the proper experience in using them.



I could give a crap about Iran's sovereignty, Ahmadinejad is a genocidal maniac who deserves no "national sovereignty" because of his brutal comments about Israel.

We, the only country to use nukes, demands that no one else be allowed to have nukes because they might use them on innocent people....like we did.

Because we're apparently the good guys. I don't get it either. If WMDs are so bad, why don't we dismantle ours?

for US world is a jungle.

Twelver Shia Muslims (Iran, Hezbollah, Syria, Iraq,… ) are preparing the world for global Islam civilization by leadership of Imam Mahdi and Jesus a.s.

Satans and evil humans are preparing the world for global govt of Antichrist (Dajjal) (new world order) by using Kabbalah, Zionism, Wahhabism, Freemasonry, Illuminati, Bahaism, Evangelicalism, Homosexuality, Israel, US govt, UN, media, banks, Hollywood, lobbies, AIPAC, ….

They brainwash people by propaganda against God, religion and by fake religions, cults and terrorism in the name of religion.

Imam Mahdi (12th Imam) and Jesus a.s. are already alive and helping real believers while being at occultation (living hided from public but not from faithful pious practicing believers). Example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Eagle_Claw and http://en.sajed.ir/ (in many cases soldiers in this war saw angles helping them.)

Hypocrite dictators of Muslims poisoned or killed all 11 infallible Imams (leader). 12th Imam arrives when people really want his leadership.

http://pastebin.com/4eGMQmWV

Believing in Imamat has direct effect on today politics. Dictators are controlling Muslims and try to remove Imamat from mind of people. Dictators like Mubarak, Ghazafi, Saudi King, Saleh, and modern ones like Obama (movie: the Obama deception). Current Leader of Shia Muslims is not a dictator: http://leader.ir/ he has a simple and poorly personal life and home like Jesus a.s.

Iran and nuke is propaganda. Iran is member of NPT. Iran has no problem with US people and Judaism. But has problem with Imperialism and Zionism. Iran has second largest Jew population.

When Mahdi arrives people will accept real peaceful Islam (not Wahhabism and AlQaede) freely. Humans know 2/27 of knowledge and Imam Mahdi a.s. teaches the rest from his divine knowledge.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muhammad_al-Mahdi

Wahhaibsm:

http://www.terrorism-illuminati.com/wahhabis

http://pastebin.com/4eGMQmWV

He needs real supporters to arrive. Real Muslim is few.

Books bout Imam Mahdi (sa) and globl govt:

http://www.maaref-foundation.com/english/library/pro_ahl/imam12_mahdi/index.htm

http://www.al-islam.org/mahdi/nontl/Toc.htm

Arrivals is near.

Jesus a.s. arrives 8 months after Imam Mahdi a.s. then antichrist (Dajjal) arrives. Jesus a.s. will pray behind Imam Mahdi a.s. and make peace between Muslims and Christians (western people).

After 7 years this peace ends and a war between govt of US (and Israel) and Imam Mahdi a.s. starts. Antichrist arrives and a global war. Antichrist shows many miracles and many of people will believe him as Jesus a.s.

After that war no war will happen for humans. Quran 2:256 says there shall be no compulsion in acceptance of religion. So Imam Mahdi a.s. will not warn people to convert and let them free to decide about religion. This is Islam. Do not confuse Islam with Wahhabism which is made to people hate Islam and never learn about real Islam.

Always check http://www.presstv.ir/ after watching Fox News, CNN, BBC and other popular media.

Antichrist is a Zionist Jew man. US military will be controlled by Antichrist. According to original Judaism there cannot be a Jewish state until the coming of the Messiah. God is not a man in sky. God has no son or child. God is not from material at all. Two of God messengers did not have father and created by miracle: Adam and Jesus a.s. Father in bible is a metaphor, does not mean physical father but means trainer. Muhammad SAWW is final messenger and after him God appointed Imams to lead humans and interpret Quran correctly. Abrahamic religions are one in fact but each customized for a specific era. Shia Islam has no conflict with evolution theory. The roof of Jesus a.s. was sky and had simple food and cloth. Not living in gold. Testaments are distorted partially during history by hypocrites with support of dictators to justify their illegitimate power. But not Quran because God promised to himself protect it. Real truth seekers always can find true religion and meet God. if Holocaust is real so why historical research about it is restricted? Even if it is real it happened in Europe, so why Palestinians should pay its price?!

In Shia Islam there are many predictions is about arrivals and global civilization of Imam Mahdi a.s.

We know it is very soon. We see predicted signs are happening one by one. For example attack of US to Iraq by a cheat was one of signs. Some scholars say Imam Khamenei will deliver the power to Imam Mahdi a.s. and he is generalissimo of Imam Mahdi a.s.

Iran is not seeking nuke. Iran nuclear program is peaceful. Iran is member of NPT. leader of Iran banned making any mass killing wepon specially nuclear bomb
