#1 Won't happen; Bush will coast through his presidency, focusing on handing a State to Hamas, and then retire on board memberships on energy firms.

#3 "...if Iran acquires nuclear weapons, it would probably spur other nations in the region to obtain those weapons themselves. That in turn would raise the risk of nuclear materials falling into the hands of terrorists."

How stupidly dense. If "Iran acquires nuclear weapons", nuclear materials would ALREADY BE "in the hands of terrorists"!

#7 Moud has already times indic = inferred that Iran's nuclear rights are not negotiable and that the country will ignore any and al UNO-INternational sanctions imposed upon it. ANY US BOMBING, WHILE PC AND LIKELY SUCCESSFUL AT THIS POINT IN TIME/POLITIX, IS AT BEST A TEMPORARY SOLUTION - BEST OPTION REMIANS DEMOCRATIC REGIME CHANGE BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY, e.g. thru GROUND INVASION. However, Moud-Mullahs are aware of this and have planned for asymmetric warfare, foreign interventionism [ Russia-China], and anti-US "justified" retaliatory Terror including but not limited to Amer Hiroshimas. RADICAL MULLAHS > GLOBAL OR GEOPOL CHAOS/ANARCHIES IS TO ISLAM'S = RADICAL ISLAMISM'S ADVANTAGE. IRAN HAS ALREADY INDIC THAT IFF NEED BE, IT WILL ALLOW NUKES-WMDS TO BE DETONATED ON ITS OWN SOIL IN ORDER TO DEFEAT US/US-ALLIED FORCES.
