Iraq wants to become nuclear

Let's think one step further.

Saudi-Arabia anyone? Syria? Egypt? Turkey?

How many of those countries already have research reactors?
Apart from Syria all those countries have already applied to the IAEA with their plans for nuclear power stations havn't they.
So you are not thinking one step further, you have simply missed the steps taken long ago.

So you believe anything they tell you.

i wonder why so many analysts then warn of a regional nuclear arms race if Iran becomes nuclear, due to reacting to the groiwng threat Iran then would pose, and due tpo the desire of nations not to fall back in the race fro staretic influenc ein the region. And all the nations I listed have ambitions for regional dominance.

BTW, all of these nations since the mid-90s (short after the Iraq war 91) are expected to have secret plans for optionally play the nuclear card i case of one of them, mainly Iran, playing that card first. Iran - means the breaking of a dam.

and the IAEA - credibility is not what they are famous for, aren'T they. Just some days ago, when Iran rebuffed some demands over it's suplly with nuclear material in the bfuture, the IAEA told the press the offocial El-Baradei policy: that the talks went extremely smooth and Iran complied with the IAEA's suggestion. Today the media again report that Iran has agreed to demands of the IAEA and the Wetsern negotiation teams. It's just the fine print that reads: "after some very serious chnages vital for Iran'S interests have been intorduced to the Western draft".

Put your trust into this kind of showacting and diplomatic paperwork, if you must. I call it a casino gamble.

Iraq, nuclear reactors?

That's a recipe for success!
