My thoughts on Iran
Iran is building nukes. We think. The much-heated debate between not only us, but foreign nations as well has left some people a bit on edge. Iran, the people who claim the holocaust didn’t exist and want to eradicate Israel is building nuclear weapons. I’ll admit, that if indeed they were building nuclear weapons that it would be a problem, but isn’t there still the chance that there using if for, well, powering their country? While it does sound a bit week I think its better than well, looking extremely hypocritical as the United States does. Were telling other countries that they cant build nuclear weapons, and yet we have 10,000 of them right here in our backyard. Think about how many that is. Then think about if that’s all really necessary…
If the United States wants a more peaceful, terror free world then perhaps its time to, well, start leading by example and maybe decommissioning some of our nukes. Lets start with just a thousand. That still leaves us with 9,000 to blast all over the world and spiral it into nuclear winter because of A) Our own actions and B) the domino effect that just firing one would cause. Russia, India, China, France, they would all most likely retaliate, especially if it were at them. The destruction would be unimaginable and the world fairly uninhabitable.
Lets not even think about the fact that every country that has these weapons is too scared to use them, and with good reason. The only good thing that would come out of a nuclear war would be the fact that overpopulation would no longer really be a problem. I guess it’s just that I find this whole situation slightly humorous; not only because of how we sound, but also that the Bush Administration is starting to make it sound like they’re a real threat. “Well, they could have nukes” better go bomb em before they get here! I’m sure they could convince the public that the War in Iraq was really the War in Iran the whole time, this would allow them to shift troops their immediately avoiding the problems in Iraq and hey, when it comes down to it, its really only changing two letters
