Steve,

And the status of Pakistan ( Moslim) and India (Hindu)? Are THEY illegal for having developed nuclear weapons? If not, why not?


Waiting on your answer before I comment on your comment about the "Jewish" state...



Sorry, I stated
"nuclear capability BEFORE the UN Treaty, and IF it had signed it would be a nuclear power. There has never been any illegality about it."

This is a true statement, regardless of your desire to make it a crime. Israel is NOT a signatory to the NPR, and is not bound by it, NOR does it get the benefits that Iran did, before Iran violated the treaty. NOT a matter of getting around a treaty it did not sign.

So you think it is better to violate an international treaty like Iran has done than to be one of several countries that does not sign it? THAT is what you are implying.
