Personally Iâ(TM)m not too worried about the whole affair, because I doubt Iran will use nuclear weapons even if they have them. There have only been two nuclear attacks in history, the two that the U.S. dropped on Japan during WWII and since then everyone, even the U.S., has been too scared to use them. Granted the Cold War was an intimidating time in history, but Mutually Assured Destruction did prevent the U.S. and Russia from destroying each other, and I think the same approach will keep Iran, and North Korea, and everyone else from using nukes. It isnâ(TM)t the best approach but until we get rid of nuclear weapons all together it will have to do. Maybe I am being naive but thatâ(TM)s my opinion, and if I am wrong, well, itâ(TM)s not like anyone will be left around to say âoeI told you so".
