Iran hours away from firing up first nuclear reactor

[Special]

Meh, they can have nuclear power if they want to, it's annoying that us - the pedantic western world - can have nuclear power but when a country that is apparently "streaming with terrorists" gets it they're immediately seen as a threat and immediately evil. I'm sure we'd all be aware if weapons are being made or uranium goes missing, but for now we shouldn't immediately assume Nuclear War and imminent death

Well as long a nuclear weapons remain a deterrant I agree with you. The problem arises when they get into the wrong hands. I think we should just wait and see here.

I trust Iran more with it than the US.

[-:Undertaker:-]

Iran is a country not a person? It's heavily linked to all the suicide bombing and terrorism in Iraq, it provides much support and weapons for groups there. Not only that but it provides much support to terrorist groups operating in Lebanon. It also has a history of disputes with the US, UK, Israel and Saudi Arabia. Oh and it has an illegitimate government seeing as the president effectively rigged last years election.

Well we also have an illegitimate and unelected self-described government based in Brussels, along with a managerial government based in Westminister which has imposed more survellance on this country than is imposed on the chinese people by their Police-state government. I don't think we are in any position to criticise how other states run their affairs - especially as our foreign policy is so backward where we are friends with one despot (Colonel Gaddafi for instance) but not friends with another (Mugabe as one example).

Friends with China, not friends with Zimbabwe.
Friends with Libya, not friends with Iran.

No moral highground what-so-ever.
