#1 Why have we or the Israelies not done anything, said anything, or made and move in relation to this?

I really think they might already have 1 or 2 stolen from Kazikstan back in the early 90's.

How in the hell could Saddam have been more dangerous then these people? I've never bought into the whole "Iraq is a bigger threat than Korea or Iran". I think W just wanted to get Saddam because he tried to kill his Dad.
/rant off.

Does anyone have an answer why we are pussy-footing around with Iran and Korea? This seems like one helluva bigger threat than Saddam.

#2 Bigger threats are harder to deal with.

Bigger threats have huge collateral issues that come into play when you confront them.

Moving into Iraq WAS a confrontation of Iran.

#3 Calm down. Europe has committed to monitoring their program. They'll take care of everything. NOT!

#5 IMHO, Syria is a puppet - a side show. Think about it.

If Al Rooters & Co keep reporting on Iran, the body of evidence will be sufficient to convince everyone short of Cynthia McKinney, Eddie Bernice Johnson, and the other LLL / terrorist enablers who've infiltrated the Congress that this is one of those pivotal moments - and the Bad Guyz have to be "handled" - period - and now.

I'll try to find a link, but to back that last statement up is this: the Good News is that a U.S. House of Representatives resolution last May 6 authorized "all appropriate means" to end Iranian nuclear weapons development.

That should cover Dubya should he be forced to act (whether directly or in support of Israel) prior to the election. Afterwards, they are definitely toast. One way or another, if Bush is re-elected, the stated goals of the Mad Mullahs has forced the US hand - they'll be taken out. If Skeery is elected, he'll prolly put on his patented knee-pads and back EU3 sanctions which aren't worth warm spit.

#6 "But we still don't have the smoking gun,"

A gun doesn't smoke until after it's been used, you fucking jackass.
