Speaking of responsible, the USA was the ONLY country to use nuclear weapons in war.
Great Iran wants a nuclear sub nuclear power for peace eh?
A sub is used only for one thing.

This thread isn’t about US’s justification for having nukes.
So Iran’s nuclear sub and the subs they currently possess are for use near their own shores?

Why should they not have a sub? Who are we the USA to tell them they can't have a sub. We have plenty of subs
Did you ever think of deterrence? Maybe the USA or any other country would think twice about attacking Iran if they knew that they had subs lurking around.
Get off your high horse of OMG OMG please don't let iran get a sub so we can attack them more easily without repercussions. edit on 083030p://6America/ChicagoTue, 12 Jun 2012 20:
Why should the USA tell Iran not to have nukes if the USA has nukes?
Are you saying they can't have advanced weapons and/or attempt to have a navy that goes beyond their shores?
The whole dammed world is telling Iran not to have nukes (except your heroes in China, Russia and Syria).
YES...The world community is saying that....YES.
Want to quote where I and anyone else said they shouldn't have a nuclear powered sub? What Iran wants Iran's revolutionary guard arrives on the scene.
Pay attention that was already answered in another post for those who bothered to read it. Nukes have not save Pakistan from attacks now has it?
Then don't complain about them getting or working on a nuclear powered sub.
There has been no ground invasion or massive war. If pakistan did not have nukes there would have been a war much faster.
Why did we not attack Russia when they had nukes?
Iran poses no threat in conflict with US.
That's funny thought i was voicing an opinion about the "Peaceful IRan" building a nuclear power submarine, a weapon that is used for war.
Still doesn't change the fact they have been getting bombed for the past 3 years so nukes haven't saved them
Iran is a religious theocracy
A enemy who will use any and all means to kill the infidel is a danger to the world unlike any that has ever been seen before.
Your tone in conversation indicates that you are displeased with them gaining this ability to have a nuclear powered sub.
If you believe that, then whats the big deal with them have nuclear weapons for self defnse like anyone else? It is their country and they have a right to determine their own destiny. If they use the nukes on anyone they will be destroyed
Haha, USA has so many religious influence in its politics its not even funny.
The USA is a danger to the world because it has a history of the most military interventions anywhere and has killed a lot more people than Iran has
Likewise then that would mean the US or Isreal has the right to determine their own destiny but wait? Nope.
Right ! Uh cept with that little thing call the separation of church and state.
Sorry but what the hell is going on in Syria at the moment? Oh yeah military interventionism by everyone not the Us but that's ok!!! Meh

If the whole world jumped off a bridge would you do it? Nuclear weapons are a deterrent to invasion and Iran knows even if it used a nuke it would be vaporized by a response.
Why so it would be easier to attack them? How about everyone who is telling them to not have advanced weapons give up their advanced weapons first.
Plus when you mention whole world; the whole world is a hostage to US foreign policy. If you don't follow the US's word you will get hit with economic and other sanctions.
The US just bullies the other countries into agreeing with them.
Nah lets just cut the crap and end this conversation there is only one reason to have a nuclear power submarine: Unlimited range for offensive strike capability which is anything but peaceful. Iran the warmonger!
The defense contractors and corporations are running the show in the USA, and they want war just as any much theocracy.
The Religion in the USA = worship of money.
If the whole dammed world thought I was wrong then YES, I would believe I was wrong. Douche bag dictators with nukes are a target…it’s no deterrent; haven’t you figured that out?
Why so it would be easier to attack them? How about everyone who is telling them to not have advanced weapons give up their advanced weapons first.
Because that would motivate them!! You can’t be serious!
Because the US is right! What is wrong about a democratic republic and capitalism? If it’s so dammed bad then why do the most prosperous nations in the world emulate the US model?
