Israel will attack Iran 'only as last resort'

[125gJoe]

I suppose within 6 months we'll see if Iran has the potential for nuclear weapons.

What's strange is that they have more oil than they could ever need. Why go for "nuclear power" and its risks? I think most can see beyond the "civilian power need"....

Its hard to fathom why any nation would provide Iran with the technology to even have the capability to have such weapons. Not to worry, Im sure Israel will lay it to waste before they have that capability......which is liable to really open a can of worms.

That's an excellent point I hadn't considered Joe.
There will always be turmoil and unrest in the middle east.

That's an excellent point .....

Just thought I'd point out, Iran is next...


Or --- are they really running out of "energy options'? ...right..

Isreal has nukes, North Korea has nukes, Pakistan, India, Iran, etc.....Seems like the nuclear club is growing and not exclusive anymore. Our only safeguard at the moment is that they are extremely complex and expensive to produce. But the technology exists and can't be de-invented. As mentioned, Iran isn't exactly short of cash. Short on morals maybe.

You're right, and I doubt they are short on energy and need nuclear power.

Why do these countries even bother? Seriously. If they even attempted to use them, their country would be levelled by so many conventional weapons from around the world in a matter of hours. Heh.
