[QUOTE="donner, post: 1734219, member: 277"] So let me get this straight. We just went from "preventing Iran from getting the bomb" to some Iranian strapping a nuke they haven't even developed on and boarding a bus. I'm no expert on this issue, but i thought this nuclear stuff was pretty complex science, let alone the steps needed to make a nuke small enough to be strapped to a body in middle of NYC. Wouldn't a dirty bomb be much easier to build? In which case all they'd have to do is steal some nuclear materials, not refine them into weapons grade, which seems like something that any group could do. Not just Iran. Replace Iran with the name of the enemy du jour and your statement justifies any type of war. "(Iraq, Iran, Syria, Pakistan, Israel, etc) is a known sponsor of that type of terrorism. Even if (Iraq, Iran, Syria, Pakistan, Israel, etc) just had 1 nuke and somehow figured out a way to set it off in NY City or Los Angeles, how many Americans would die and be injured. Even if we launched 200 nukes in retaliation (yea, like Obama would even do that), the (Iraqis, Iranians, Syrians, Pakistanis, Israelis, etc) might just look at it like any other suicide mission they embark on."
