It seems parties in the region are concerned about their program? Oh wait, Israel does not can't because President Ahmadenijad can't come out and officially recognize them.
Can you please decipher this part of your rant for me?
Ahmadenijad answered ALL the questions that troll Larry asked.
Then asked afew questions of Larry, which resulted in a quick add break.
Ahmadenijad won the debate, if thats what you call what Larry attempted...
All Larry succeded in doing was opening the US tax payers eyes to the BS they are fed day and night...
Military officials said that the countries that accepted the defense systems were Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Kuwait. They said the Kuwaitis had agreed to take the defensive weapons to supplement older, less capable models it has had for years. Saudi Arabia and Israel have long had similar equipment of their own.

He brings up alot of issues that both the mainstream media and the us government flat out refuse to discuss. He is right that in the g20 people were beaten and imprisoned for simply gathering and protesting. Why does the united states defend israel? Because of the holocost?? How many iraqis have been killed again? Why is it ok for the united states to occupy other countries?
These are all questions that shouldve been answered by a reporter with the experience and knowledge that larry king has and it just seems like he dodged every question and instead tried to shift to "iran is bad bla bla bla".
Link to his full speech at the un that wasnt cut off by almost every news channel reporting it:

Watch The US and Israel walk out together.
Unreal. S&F.

He doesn't need to skirt the issue on his nuclear ambitions for his Country. He is the leader of his Country, he has allowed nuclear inspectors full access & has abided by all terms set in the nuclear treatie ( I can't remember what it's called) What gives America any right to say he Iran cannot use Nuclear power?
Iran objected to the designation of two inspectors who had recently conducted inspections in Iran.
The Agency rejects the basis upon which Iran has sought to justify its objection; it is also concerned
that the repeated objection to the designation of experienced inspectors hampers the inspection process
and detracts from the Agency's ability to implement safeguards in Iran.

Why don't they look at Israel, who have an estimated 5000 nukes? who will not sign the nuke treaty. Is it because a bunch of Zionists run America? Is it because America have given Israel the nukes?
According to Vanunu's data, the solid plutonium spheres for Israel's nuclear weapons weighed 4.4 kilograms. He also said that Israel had produced 100 to 200 advanced fission bombs by 1986, had mastered a thermonuclear design, and appeared to have a number of thermonuclear bombs ready for use.
Franco-Israeli nuclear cooperation is described in detail in the book "Les Deux Bombes" (1982) by French journalist Pierre Pean, who gained access to the official French files on Dimona. The book revealed that the Dimona's cooling circuits were built two to three times larger than necessary for the 26-megawatt reactor Dimona was supposed to be--proof that it had always been intended to make bomb quantities of plutonium. The book also revealed that French technicians had built a plutonium extraction plant at the same site. According to Pean, French nuclear assistance enabled Israel to produce enough plutonium for one bomb even before the 1967 Six Day War. France also gave Israel nuclear weapon design information.
The Central Intelligence Agency, backed by bodies including the State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research and the Defense Intelligence Agency, determined in August 1974 that Israel had nuclear "weapons in being," a "small number" of which it "produced and stockpiled."
Israel was also suspected of providing nuclear materials, equipment or technology to Iran, South Africa and other then-friendly countries.

It's always the same old response. He'll wipe Israel of the map, when he said the Zionist leaders of Israel should be wiped from the pages of time, he's a nut job. blah blah bloody blah.
"Iran is a police state, with a horrible human rights record, and run by fanatical theocracy. If one talks about anything other than the official government policy, they are thrown in prison or executed. If anything it was rather amusing watching a lackey spout off about international issues which in all entirety he has no say in what his country does regarding them. "Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones."
America is a police state that sells the idea of freedom but infringes most peoples personal freedoms. America executes prisoners on deathrow by leathal injection, firing squad, gassing, hanging & electric chair, depending on the state.
Those who live in glass house's shouldnt throw stones hey?
Oh yeah this is not america bashing, I love the country & one day would like to live there, but some people just dont have a clue

So, it was not the US who helped Israel develop nuclear weapons or gave them the technology, but France and in secret. After they had learned about Israel's activities in the 60s, they more or less turned a blind eye to the whole thing. It seems the US was still concerned about the prospect of Israel having nuclear weapons, because through out their development they were being spied on by the Central Intelligence Agency.

United States has been aiding and abeting a nation (Israel) that is KNOWN to have nuclear weapons, which is in direct violation of NPT.
Originally posted by peck420
As sad as the truth is, every nation on the NPT treaty has breached said treaty and should be held accountable for it.
If we can't uphold our own treaties and laws, why should we expect others too?
