Iran Has Started a Mideast Arms Race

Onkel Neal · 03-23-09, 01:01 PM

States throughout the region are looking to establish nuclear programs.

Quote:

Make no mistake: The Middle East may be on the verge of a nuclear arms race triggered by the inability of the West to stop Iran's quest for a bomb. Since Tehran's nuclear ambitions hit the headlines five years ago, 25 countries -- 10 of them in the greater Middle East -- have announced plans to build nuclear power plants for the first time.

It's just a matter of time now...

Irans nuclear program started in the early 1950s , Egypts dates from the early 60s . So whats the big deal ?
As for stating a middle east nuclear arms race I would have thought that started when a middle eastern country got itself nuclear arms a long time ago .

Let us hope they can display the same responsibility and restraint that other nuclear powers have....but somehow I doubt it

Big clubs in the hands of hatefilled religious zealots.

Brilliant.

Even if not using them themselves, the main concern with Iran always has been and always will remain to be big club proliferation and terror groups.

A nuclear program and a nuclear weapons program are two very different things. None of those countries has hidden an enrichment program or violated IAEA regulations.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with a legal nuclear power program under the full supervision of the IAEA. These countries know that oil will only last so long, and nuclear power gives them more oil to export.
