This attitude of "Im not going to america because of their politics" is just as ignorant as any american attitude towards the world. Way to show us
the way to the righteous path.
The reason you cant give Iran nuclear weapons is because they constantly and openly preech the destruction of Isreal and recently, foriegn troops in
the Middle East. Why would you even consider giving nuclear weapons to people that seem like they wouldnt have a problem using them. I have no
problem if a country wants nuclear power plants, but I do have a problem with countries that want to obtain nukes. This goes for
any nation.
I applaud Japan for resisting the calls to build a nuclear force.
I am against the Iraq war. Always have been. Bush and his cronies made it look like the Iraqis were the real threat and that we had to go over there
before we were all killed. I dont know about most people in the US, but I have never met a Iraqi, let alone feel threatened by any, and out of all
the nations of the world, Iraq would be one of the last I would list as a threat.
As for Iran, Im against any actions against them also. There has been much talk about air strikes on Iran facilities lately. This would be a huge
mistake. But, like you said, the aggressor in a war between the Iran and any nation of the world would lose my support immediately. Like I said
already, I have no problem with Iran have nuclear power plants but the constant talk of death and descruction is the single greastest reason for not
letting Iran develop nuclear weapons.
As for this "holier than thou" attitude that I have seen by mostly Europeans. Are european nations not just as reasponsible for what the US has
done since 2001? When Bush said "your with us or against us" most european nations fell right into a perfect line behind Bush. All except France
that suffered the wrath of light trade sanctions, oh my! Its ashame that all those people that say that america is a bully live in nations that has
done nothing to oppose what the US did and dont do anything to oppose what the US is doing.
Inaction of some can be just as destructive as uncontrolled actions of others, together the results are horrible.
