For a lot of people to say that Iran would use nuclear weapons against others might be true, but then again it might not. The same goes for people securing their home and persons. We buy guns and ammo to protect our homes. We do not go out into the streets and look for people who might break into our homes. If Iran really wants to attack Israel, they will.
There's a big difference between buying a handgun for home defense and developing weapons that are not only unneeded for defense but which are also capable of killing hundreds of thousands , if not millions, of people.

If you think that people and their behavior cannot be controlled, go try to smoke a joint on the court house steps. You'll learn real soon that people are capable of being controlled. In fact, one of the tenets of a civilized society is that we willingly control ourselves, and willingly allow others to control us, in order to maintain order and civility in our society.

Iran cannot be trusted with nuclear weapons; that is a simple fact. It is also a simple fact that Iran has no defensive need for nuclear weapons. So, Iran absolutely must not be allowed to get nuclear weapons.

I certainly wouldn't let anyone in the US government, particularly not anyone in the lying-ass Bush administration, be the judge of whether or not Iran is actually developing nuclear weapons. However, I think Israel has good intel and they will know when the time is right to strike.

Sadly, it seems to be more a matter of when, than if, a strike will be necessary. But, the Iranians have no one but themselves to blame. They are a democratic society with elected leaders and, if they choose to elect nut jobs to lead them, they will have to bear the consequences of their decisions. ...just as we Americans will have to suffer for many years due to the consequences of electing Bush.
