are you so narrowminded? Of course they won't announce their true intentions. If they went out and said, "yea we are making nukes, deal with it," I daresay that they would face war. Right now they have their poker face on, they say they are not producing nukes, and we can't prove 100% that they are, so we are in a stalemate, because sanctions, and in a worst case scenario, war, will be disastrous to both sides, especially over something that hasn't been confirmed as true.

And if American Intelligence says they are producing nukes, I have reason to believe them. Before some smart ass says the intelligence was wrong about Iraq, let me remind you that the CIA said that they knew Iraq had no WMD all along.

Fact is, the minute they have one nuke they will be parading it around, etc, and then, we won't be able to do anything, because it will be too late. we must sieze the moment, or we will lose the oppurtunity.

Will this give Islamic extremists even more reason to hate us? probably. Will it improve our relations with foreign countries? Probably not. However, we are talking about nukes, to this date, the most powerful, and devastating weapon man has ever concieved. We cannot let some crackpot dictator ruling an extremist country that is often at odds with out own country, to come into possession of such weapons.
