Who would be stupid enough to nuke another country, risk nuclear war and total annihilation, especially since Iran’s enemies, the US and Israel both have nuclear capabilities. The way I see it is that the US does not want to risk Iran, and oil rich country, having such a powerful deterrent against their potential future invasion. Furthermore, Israel has illegal nuclear weapons, why is it ok for them and not for anyone else. Double standards come to mind. I bet if Israel was disarmed Iran would be less likely to want to develop nuclear weapons. Oh but wait, how do we even know Iran wants to develop nuclear weapons, cause the US told us so, right. Smells fishy to me.</blockquote>
