@iraaus

You are saying nuclear weapons are a good thing?

Are you fucking insane?

The UK has nuclear weapons...It has been attacked..

The reason very little countries with nuclear weapons have been attacked is because there hasn't been any reason so far to attack.. SO FAR

If you put countries like Iran or North Korea in the position of nuclear power then they will use them as an offensive weapon...Not defensive detterent

[iraaus]

I am in no position to admit anything, however am i advocating it, well it depends on what world we live in, lets see Iraq no bomb and it got invaded, 1,000,000 dead and injured 4,000,000 displaced, North Korea a vastly worst regime with the bomb and no invasion, you tell me what would you do if you were making decisions in Iran?

@iraaus Are you admitting that Iran IS after the bomb!? and you are advocating it?

[iraaus]

@conglomerate8 Realy,

name a country that has nuclear weapons and has been attacked!

@conglomerate8 (cont)..As you're arguing on this, new types of energy solutions are being developed & are about to take the lead, like Bacterial energy (using bacteria to create electricity or run a car), H3 energy (using H3 for fusion), Highly Advanced Solar Systems & etc.

Poor IRAN is playing in the court of west without knowing it..just like the past 100 years...The West wants us to go nuclear, cuz they know that neither is energy efficient nor will it bring any good (except War). Wake up!

@DerafsheKavian We've been misled since the day modernity came to Iran by western propaganda machine and the thing that you called it "Nuclear energy program" or whatever "Iranian nuclear crisis", both are of those misleadings! Why? ok tell me: What is a nuclear reactor? ha? I tell you: its a fucking big BOILER. It rotates the turbine by BOILING water!!! Most retarded way of generating energy in the world!! Its history! Its yesterday and its not efficient..(cont)

1-The term "Iranian nuclear crisis" is the invention of Western propaganda machine. Iran has a nuclear energy program, which is fully monitored by the IAEA.

2-when it comes to security, it is interesting the fellow mentions everyone's security except Iran's.

3- as for the pessimists,optimists, and alike I have seen them predict "Iran will have a bomb in 2005, 2006, ...". Seems to me the public has caught up on that.

4-of course it is Iran's and everyone else's right to make nuclear fuel.
