Iran to allow inspection of suspected nuclear arms development site by IAEA

[QUOTE=Devodiere;35031200]IAEA, not the US government. And it's a military site so they will freely forbid them from accessing certain areas. It's a lovely gesture but everyone knows they're not going to lay all their cards on the table.
Also if you really have not comprehended the practicality of the situation, allow me to spell it out once more. When a country has Nuclear weapons, it is near impossible to get them to disarm through diplomatic means, the next best option is good relations then an overwhelming threat that puts them in an MAD situation. When they are developing Nuclear weapons, it's far easier to get them to stop developing than to disarm so preventing them from having Nukes is possible.
Also rather than Israel or Pakistan, Brazil and Turkey are far more comparable. Because they don't seem like the type we're going to war with though, are you concerned about them though?[/QUOTE]
No, I'm not concerned about Brazil or Turkey having nuclear weapons, nor am I concerned about Israel or Iran having nuclear weapons. But here's the problem, there's yet to be any evidence that Iran has nuclear weapons, and it's fine for the IAEA to be inspecting these sites but you know it's the US and Israel pushing for more sanctions and more action against Iran.

They inspect everyone's sites, they're the IAEA, go look them up if you weren't aware. Iran forbids them from examining certain sites though, three guesses what the IAEA thinks of that. With this kind of conflict between them and an international regulatory board, do you think the US will be happy either?
If you want hard evidence of everything, stay out of politics. There's a lot you can learn in subtle ways but they rarely leave their plans for doomsday weapons lying about.
[QUOTE=Auth;35030910]Okay, and thus far those nations have proven themselves worthy of the technology. I don't want Iran becoming a nuclear power, and I don't want another theocracy getting nukes.[/QUOTE]
So Israel threatens it's neighbors with nukes yet they are more worthy?

Source?
Old Ahmadinejad had a plant, IAEA-O.
And on that plant he had a bomb, IAEA-O.
With a conflict here and a tension there
Here a boom, there a bang
Everywhere a big blam.
Old Ahmadinejad had a plant, IAEA-O.
[QUOTE=Sickle;35030719]I love how even after that quote by Ahmed was proved incorrect, you still use it as a detriment. Even Israel supports terrorism, did you read about those scientists, or weren't you paying attention for two weeks.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Megafan;35030929]Pretty shoddy reasoning, that.
"Other countries I don't like were capable of having them, but I don't want Iran to have them anyway."[/QUOTE]
I left my post too ambigious- yesterday I was eating dinner watching that speech by the Israeli prime minister. This was the focus of his argument.

It's complete bullshit. All I could see was a foreign Bush jabbering off about how there's only one course of action, and of course the audience is just eating it up. Afterwards, the commentators took turns validating this notion of "self-defense" that Israel is likely to launch a planned military campaign under.

I don't see what you count as "worthy"

How can you judge a nation unworthy when they don't possess the weapon itself?

Iran is trying to remove evidence of the nuclear activity at Parchin. [url]http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/iran/9130082/Iran-trying-to-remove-evidence-that-it-tested-detonators-for-nuclear-weapons.html[/url]
[QUOTE=Megafan;35025531]What the US and EU seem to be unaware of is that Iran has no obligation to let them or the UN inspect these facilities. I have yet to see any evidence that Iran is actually developing nuclear weapons, and even if they were why can't they have them? If the claim is that they may end up in the hands of religious zealots, why are we not threatening to take them from Israel's or Pakistan's hands? This whole thing is a farce.[/QUOTE]
It will start an arms race in the region.
