Do you seriously believe that Iran would use a nuclear weapon directly or indirectly - what would the consequences be on that state? If you do then you must not sleep easy at night with all those monsters lurking under your bed.

Why are they in such a rush to develop the technology, why let me think perhaps for the same reasons we were, together with all the other members of the club. Time and again we are told they give us influence, and of course they are a deterrent. Our argument for holding a nuclear capability can be no less credible when deployed by others - or can it sisemen?

Yes Iran is a threat to peace, just as we are so long as we (the west) maintain our intransigence in recognizing that maybe just maybe there is a legitimacy in some of their complaint. Peace imposed is a false hope, the days of constraining people by wielding a big stick above their heads is over - you need to move on. Jaw Jaw not War War
