I didn't support the Iraq War.
You seem to think that Iranian leadership thinks in the same ways you do. I wish that were the case, because then they wouldn't even seek the nuke.
Are you familiar with Achy's particular religious views and how they play into his politics?
I hope that calmer heads prevail in Iran, I really do. It'll be disastrous if there is another war... but there is a faction that can create ever more disaster if given the chance, and it has real power in Iran to do so potentially.
The best way to deal with your enemies, in the view of the American conservative, is to assume that they are crazy or that they are aliens from a different universe.
There are obviously geopolitical reasons for Iran seeking the nuke. It may turn out to be a bad bet, but it has a rationale, unlike the imaginary scheme that goes:
1) Nuke Israel
2) Start war against the West
3) ???
4) Profit

Yeah, obviously. If you knew anything, you'd know that he was pandering (i.e. talking to people whose minds were already made up).
