Iran: We will never develop nuclear weapons

Grant said:
He is in way over his head and every world leader knows and understands that. New alliances will be made to deal with the coming new world order and it seems Putin will accept the mantle as the man who will be making the major decisions. America will be leading from ever further behind.

Aha, "the new world order" it's been awhile.

They've been saying this all along; the problem is the way they are going about refining uranium argues that they ARE going for nuclear weapons.

Doesn't uranium get refined to a certain percentage when producing nuclear power?
 
Grant said:
Yes, I know. Watching such a rapid decline of a democratic Superpower is rather interesting to watch but
there is also a tinge of sadness as well.

Save your sadness for the GOP.

In about thirty years or so massive demographic change in the USA, which strongly favors the Democratic party,will reduce the GOP to a minor, regional party with no national power.




"Better days are coming." ~ But not for today's out of touch, running out of time, GOP.

Doesn't P-Stan and India and probably Israel have nukes?

Yes.


Israel and India are our allies. No big problem there.

Pakistan is a bit of an issue, but they're primarily focused on their conflict with India over that little country in between them (Cashmere? Kasimir?)


Iran is run by bughouse nuts Islamic extremists who spend a lot of time talking about bringing on the 12th Mahdi with a global cataclysm and **** like that.... ties to terrorists.... etc... problem there, yes.



I should probably explain my perspective: I don't give a flying **** about fair. I give a flying **** about the security and dominance of the US and our allies.

I have no interest whatsoever in the GOP. I'm talking about the United States, its future, and what effect that will have on the world.

A guy could start a whole thread on that and it would be hundreds of pages.

Ok, I kinda thought that's where you were. I only hope there's less of you with that perspective.

Every political thread suggests major changes are underway though they are usually just small pieces to a bigger puzzle..

I wish there were more. It is called common sense: In a world mostly ruled by force, better than I and my allies have the best weapons, and my self-appointed enemies have little. Especially if they are ****ing bughouse nuts extremists.

I'm glad there's not. I can't say hope cause, well you know, Grant frowned on that :)

:shrug: For the time being, there are enough of us to maintain a rational viewpoint on such issues.


Perhaps the lollipop-and-unicorn, ain't-gonna-rain-no-more Pollyanna crowd will dominate one day... if so, they will be overseeing our Recessional and the decline and fall of the West though. A people who cannot act in their own self-interest will soon be destroyed or overtaken by a people who can.

Unless the American character reasserts itself the 'lollipop and unicorn' crowd will win the day. Socialism is gradually chipping away at the history of the country, the education, the national character, and all its traditions. Succeeding generations will have few memories, apart from old movies, of what it was like before they took over.

Yeah, their economy is going downhill thanks in no small part to a US embargo.

What your self interest is should only be important to yourself, as long as you don't harm others.

That's my point exactly. US "interests" (which as an American "should" be mine) have gone far beyond harming others, it has KILLED others in senseless wars.

They are a lot closer to making nukes than the people in Papua New Guinea are.

Do you want to argue that point?

Not arguing that at all. Nuclear power plants and nuclear enrichment are nowhere near the same thing.

I'm not surprised you've been influenced by the Blame America First people and it's certainly having an effect on the character and culture of the country. This does not bode well for anyone.
