Does Iran already have nuclear material?

This should be interesting...

http://www.breitbart.com/news/2006/11/14/D8LD070G1.html

International Atomic Energy experts have found unexplained plutonium and highly enriched uranium traces in a nuclear waste facility in Iran and have asked Tehran for an explanation, an IAEA report said Tuesday.

If you look through my posts, you'll find what they are doing. They do not need to reach weapons grade uranium, to make a reactor that will produce plutonium. The Arak reactor they are building can produce enough plutonium to make about 2 bombs per year.

The good news: Plutnoium bombs are much much harder to make. See recent test by North Korea.

They DO NOT have any designs towards making a nuke weapon!

N. Korea IS NOT producing nuke weapons!

Saddam DID NOT have any WMD!

They ARE NOT still finding bunkers and weapons from WW2, almost 70 years after it ended.

How many times do we have to say this before it sinks in???

Joe, while the othe points you made can be tested factually -- how do you know what Iran's intentions are regarding nukes? Listening to their president, it sure sounds like he's been clear about their intentions. And that's assuming that he always speaks the truth -- which in the world of politics is a bad assumption to make.

Well, we've neutered ourselves as far as stopping them now anyway. They would laugh at us if we threatened military action.

Pulling out of Iraq will complete the paper tiger confirmation.

Since it would be illegal to take military action, the US government sh ould obey the law.

Stop the teenagerish "my manhood is being questioned' form of international relations. It's a garbage philosophy, and socialist to boot.

Leave other countries alone, if they try to attack America, we can and will make them very sorry for their trouble.

Otherwise, leave them the "F" alone.

Tune into CNN Headline News tonight at 7 (right now) or 9 PM. There will be translated clips of Armegdonjihad and others speaking in their native language to their people on Iranian TV ..... let's just say it will cast a 'slightly' different light then the Mike Wallace lovefest interview a few months back. If this doesn't scare the living ***** out of you .....

well if Iran has one Saudi will want one to, and Egypt will feel left out and get one as well, Jordan out of Egypt envy will just have to have one as well. Israel is likily not to like the idea of staring down a gun barrel and go and use one on the Iranians, just to shut them up, and pretty soon they are all using them on each other...So U can see what keeping up with the Rashids and Abdulas does for the hood.

This all wouldn't be a Bad idea in of itself, except they are likely to blow up the oil fields as well as themselves. And that a Bad idea for America.

Actually, an even worse idea for China...

One what? When one passess gas from too many beans and olive oil?

If there is an attack on America in the future, it will be wholly and completely the responsibility of the US government.

Whereas before 9/11/2001 Americans were funding the preventative federal police forces to the tune of 30 billion dollars a year, now we're paying them about $100 billion per year to prevent said event.

Who cares? Do you think American politicans speak in english in America so that Iranians will understand and hear what's said?

Of course not.

Where do these bloody dickheads come from?

One of the big news items of the past year concerned the fact that China, which we call Red China, exploded a nuclear bomb, which we called a device. Then Indonesia announced that it was gonna have one soon, and proliferation became the word of the day. Here's a song about that.

First we got the bomb and that was good,
'Cause we love peace and motherhood.
Then Russia got the bomb, but that's O.K.,
'Cause the balance of power's maintained that way!
Who's next?

France got the bomb, but don't you grieve,
'Cause they're on our side (I believe).
China got the bomb, but have no fears;
They can't wipe us out for at least five years!*
Who's next?

Then Indonesia claimed that they
Were gonna get one any day.
South Africa wants two, that's right:
One for the black and one for the white!**
Who's next?

Egypt's gonna get one, too,
Just to use on you know who.
So Israel's getting tense,
Wants one in self defense.
"The Lord's our shepherd," says the psalm,
But just in case, we better get a bomb!
Who's next?

Luxembourg is next to go
And, who knows, maybe Monaco.
We'll try to stay serene and calm
When Alabama gets the bomb!
Who's next, who's next, who's next?
Who's next?

Exactly right. The balance of power will be achieved, no matter what Washington, D.C. wishes would happen.

Curses on those Utopians in the White House.

Now, quiet, I'm listening to the Rolling Stone's "Beggar's Banquet".
