And the problem with Iran having a weapon is... [View all]

What? Seems a fact is missing from the weapon hysteria that has brought massive, deadly attacks against Iran? From out of the blue.

How exactly would they use it? If they did the crazy thing, Tehran would disappear shortly thereafter, and they know it (the principle behind MAD). And say they sneaked one into a shipping container, after the blast they would be at the top of the suspect list, and could be open to retaliation even if they weren't the culprit.

After terrorist level attacks from the U.S. and Israel, one could see why they would want one even more now for protection.

Trust America....ha.

BTW...there is no doubt that the Islamic leadership has been exceptionally brutal, but bomb them out of existence. Really?
