At that time, Kirby also denied that the bombs were designed to target Iran, the only country known to have buried its nuclear weapons.

But MSNBC says otherwise:

That may be a tall order, with Iran insisting its right to peaceful nuclear technology be recognized by skeptical countries which say its uranium enrichment activities - some of which have been moved to a bomb-proof bunker - go beyond what is needed for atomic energy.

I suspect it's just poorly-written copy.

No, they don't.

Oh come on, they just replaced Iraq with Iran from an exact same song from the first Iraq war!

Actually, the original song was from 1980 by Vince Vance and the Valiants. (And that was a parody of the song "Barbara Ann" by the Beach Boys. ) Original song.

Oh, and also:

If Ahmadinejad and Khameini do have nukes, then that puts their threat-level above Stalin, and below Montezuma(Never trust an Aztec with nukes). I hope that the Iranian government is sensible enough not to use the weapons, but given some of Ahmadinejad's beliefs...

If they only use them to deter attack there is nothing wrong. Since 1st use would be suicide I don't think they would do that (even if the have bad leaders). Hope I'm not wrong.

Make no mistake about it. Ahmadinejad doesn't and won't have nuclear weapons. Iran may obtain nuclear weapons, but it will be the military and Khomeini who will control them.

Nukes in US worry me much more. At least Iran doesn't have history of using them.

Fox left out the word program.

Guns in the hands of police officers worry me much more. At least my brother doesn't have a history of using them.

 

[NickyJ]

F16s in the military worries me much more. At least Jack the Ripper doesn't have a history of using them.

That's like saying it's okay to give guns to three year old children because they have hurt nobody so far.

 

[bhsup]

That's a smidge young. I don't think I got my first bb gun until I was in kindergarden...maybe 1st grade.

It's really pretty easy! (skip to about 1:55)

Why do we compare Iran to 3 year olds? I think using both adult methapors would be better. think that I am armed with machine guns (and maybe rocket launchers) and used guns befor and and i have beaten or threatened anyone who doesn't agree with me. And I see you as my mortal enemy? And there's no one who could protect you if i came after you, and in a fist fight you don't have chance against me. Who would blame you if you tried to obtain guns.

I don't think the WWII Pacific conflict was merely a diplomatic disagreement.
