She has distinguished herself in her understanding of history, geopolitics, and expression of Germany's interests. Her reaching out to Israel and willingness to take a strong stance against Iranian nuclear designs is the kind of leadership that can enable Germany to make a positive and material contribution toward improving world security. |

Stop being George Bush. Understand the limitations of our power. We can't prevent them from developing the bomb. It's impossible. What we have to do is make sure they have no reason to do so. | You act like its just the US that doesn’t want them to have nukes..
Stop acting like such a tinker bell and realize the entire region doesn’t want a nuclear Iran. 
The only reason they wish to develop nukes is to hold over Israel heads.
Its part of the “Hate the joos” thing as laid out by the Koran.
You're DEAD wrong about having the power to stop them. Those ****ing rejects should have been dealt with years ago. |

ג וַתִּקַּח שָׂרַי אֵשֶׁת-אַבְרָם, אֶת-הָגָר
הַמִּצְרִית שִׁפְחָתָהּ מִקֵּץ עֶשֶׂר שָׁנִים
לְשֶׁבֶת אַבְרָם בְּאֶרֶץ כְּנָעַן; וַתִּתֵּן אֹתָהּ
לְאַבְרָם אִישָׁהּ לוֹ לְאִשָּׁה
3 And Sarai Abram's wife took Hagar the Egyptian, her handmaid, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to Abram her husband to be his wife. (בראשית - Genesis - 16:3)

Do you want to invade Iran? Does that seem like a good idea to you? Have you been watching the news for the last 5 years? |

Why do you think Iran would want to have nukes?
To "destroy Israel"? I don't think so, they know they would be destroyed within minutes by Israeli and US nukes.
In fact, Iran tries to get nuclear weapons, just as North Korea, because once they have it, they know they won't be attacked. Iran does not want to be the next target of an US preventive attack, like Saddam. Nuclear deterrent - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
