Iran's Nuclear Ambitions

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the something-to-think-about dept.

selven wrote in with something a bit offtopic for Slashdot, but I figured it's worth a discussion today. He writes "Following Iran's revelation regarding its secret nuclear enrichment plant, western leaders are banding together against it, saying that it violates Articles 2 and 3 of the Non-Proliferation Treaty and suggesting serious sanctions against the country if it refuses to back down on its uranium enrichment program. Iran maintains that its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only and that it's not fair for the US to be criticizing them in this way while having thousands of nuclear warheads."

    Context, Schlomo.

    I am responding to the "300" comment - not justifying the current IRI. But I don't suppose understanding that suits your agenda.

    Your argument fails utterly to explain the continued rule of the Chinese Communist party in the the largest trading partner country of most western nations. Where are the Chinese middle-class masses, yearning for their freedom?
