Subject: RE: BS: Hillary threatens to obliterate Iran
A nuclear armed Iran is not going to attack Israel, that would be suicide and they know it.

That is not the danger, this is what is - Now having the technology, the materials and the finances to build a bomb, there is nothing whatsoever to stop the Al-Quds Brigade of the IRRG giving that to one of the terrorist organisations they support, in order that that organisation attacks Israel by proxy. There is no "Government" to blame, those left shrug their shoulders and blame "rogue elements" and most here would meekly accept that explanation and make excuses to justify the actions of those who carried out the attack.

Iran can chose its path, if it opts for nuclear energy complete with a weapons programme, it has to be told in no uncertain manner any "accidents", such as that described above, and proof, or no proof, they pick up the tab for it.

Kevin:
"200 or so Israeli nuclear weapons" - Does Israel really have more nuclear weapons than the UK? Source please.

"The reason Iran might seek to develop nuclear weapons would be to deter attacks, such as the war of aggression launched by Iraq a few years back under Saddam when he was a valued US ally" - Was Saddam a valued ally of the USA in 1980 Kevin? Source please.
