Lets me just add, the problem its not the President of Iran but as always the ideology that this man holds a long with his political party. Now discuss

Who the fuck are you to deny the Iranians the right to develop nuclear power?

I believe it is actually legal to enrich uranium no?

Anyways, the main honcho, the USA, has done nothing but sabre rattling making war almost inevitable. Iran is also a member of the IAEA. I think the first solution is leaving Iraq. Mr Bush and Mr admadinijad just keep pushing the bar higher and higher. Both need to be immediatly replaced.

But as the situation appears, Israel will be attacking Iran first, and protected by the Iraq buffer.

true, but iran should definitely be more transparent in its nuclear plans, then perhaps the world wouldnt be worried so much? make no mistake- iran is certainly to blame for some of the bad press it has been receiving.

They can't ignore sanctions - that's not a choice left up to them.

Considering it's about 8-10 years away, that's a great amount of time to try and use sound diplomatic relations with a different administration who actually knows what the word "diplomacy" means until that time. Other than that, a continual pressure of economic sanctions is highly appropriate and shown to be effective historically as a means of deterrence for countries obtaining "nukular" power. The Duelfer Report on Iraq's WMD program made that abundantly clear.

And should that ideology continue to entail a creation of a "nukular" bomb, I believe Israel is more than capable of handling its neighbor with the bombs she possesses, don't you think?

I am fairly certain that Iran's program, as they claim, is legal under the NPT.

That's the main argument that Ahmadinejad has been trying to make. He didn't come here to talk about gays and religion, he's trying to argue that his country is being treated unfairly under the NPT.

So I'm going out on a limb and saying that there is no need to halt thier program, as outlined by the Iranian administration to the rest of the world. This doesn't mean it shouldn't be monitored.

To halt thier weapons ambitions (any weapons) it would be a good idea to direct western foreign policy in a way that doesn't cause paranoia in other nations. Not until countries can live without fear of US intervention will they begin to let thier weapons procurment / development wane.

I mean I hear these phony things that Iran wont reach the capacity to be able to make Nuke weapons in X amount of years, YOU ARE LOST!
No one knows the current status of their prog! Here is the thing that you people tend to forget. Please dont echo this bs "Iran has the right to have a program" ok but great responsibility comes if you want to reach that stage. Has Iran demonstrated to the world, that they are responsible and trustworthy to have such program? The UN has presented in the past with similar programs to reach the so called objective and Iran claims " for peaceful purposes" but they have rejected it.

I mean Iran has not shown any seriousness to have such prog... here is why

1. They are promoting instability in the region by aiding terrorist
2. They have called for the destruction of Israel
3. They have this lunatic ideology of some religious phenomenon like Armageddon
