The leaders of Iran are just plain Bat Shat Crazy and I hope they are crushed soon before all hell breaks out in the mid-east.
Your country holds the keys to the destruction of the world and has shown irresponsibility in use of that power.
Please think about that.

TITLE 42 > CHAPTER 23 > Division A > SUBCHAPTER IX > § 2131
Given the language, and intent of the Second Amendment, it is perfectly clear that all People are protected in The United States from any government interference in their right to keep and bear arms. This would include, given the vast nuclear arsenal the federal government of the United States has stockpiled, the right of every individual to keep and bear nuclear weapons.

Dear Lord! Have you no idea how to Google the Second Amendment? For Christ's sakes how loony will this all get?
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
~Second Amendment from the Bill of Rights of the Constitution for the United States of America~
There's your source, Bub. Of course, if you cannot be bothered to look that up yourself, it is doubtful you will bother to read it now.
It shall be unlawful, except as provided in section 2121 of this title, for any person within the United States to transfer or receive in interstate commerce, manufacture, produce, transfer, acquire, possess, use, import, or export any utilization or production facility except under and in accordance with a license issued by the Commission pursuant to section 2133 or 2134 of this title.

legitimate pre-emptive strike is fine, but the means to do so requires intel and thats where, in a free society, the slow and inevitable downfall into tyranny takes place. they are either looking for non-existant targets or mistakingly creating them
As far as I'm concerned, Israel's intelligence experts are correct when saying Iran wants the bomb at most as a deterrent against us.
Tamir Pardo says Israel using various means to foil Iran's nuclear program, but if Iran actually obtained nuclear weapons, it would not mean destruction of Israel.

You provide a licensing scheme relying upon the commerce clause to do what exactly? To refute the Second Amendment? Ignorance is not protected by the politically correct in this site, and your ignorance is inexcusable.
I am not a warmonger but that is the title given to everybody who supports removing threats in the world. Having enough sense to remove a threat before it hurts you makes perfect sense to me.
I DO want its nuclear program wiped out completely and its future nuclear activities monitored.
People who support Iran typically only do so because they hate America and the west.
Anyone who believes the world should reject Iran’s pursuit for nuclear weapons should explain why they feel that way here on this thread.

Wrabbit, I'm tempted to give you kudos for this post for a few reasons, but I don't want to encourage some of your statements I can't support
Thanks for admitting on the assumptions regarding the "wiped off the map" thing, and I'd just like to ask that you also look at what may be assumptions or lack of complete information on the rest as well. Take care, friend, and thanks for all your input here even if I can't agree with all of it.

Refute the second amendment? No, this all basically defines the second amendment. Don't get your panties a bunch just because you cant own nukes buddy. Take your loss like a man.
A war monger invades innocent nations while claiming they're a threat. I'm not saying you're a warmonger but anyone who shares this mentality might as well be. Exactly how is Iran a threat to you?
Do you not see the contradiction in that statement?
Canadian TV sucks too so I would be lost without your programming!

None of this changes the fact that it was indeed the United States of America who first developed nuclear weapons and the only nation to use these weapons of mass destruction during time of war. This is OUR responsibility seabag. Banging the war drums over Iran does nothing to accept that awesome responsibility. Angry and fearful rhetoric about perceived threats against the nation of the United States does not change the fact that the U.S. is responsible for bringing the threat of nuclear holocaust into this world. This is OUR responsibility!
