Is there a good write up somewhere on what a nuclear Iran would mean?
I don’t wish for more nuclear weapons, but to date, the states with them, usually (a nice apply word) don’t use them.
- bentobean 1y ago> It is the mission of the Islamic Republic of Iran to erase Israel from the map of the region. — Ali Khamenei Does that sound like someone who should have a nuclear arsenal?
- lostlogin 1y agoI agree. But also, are the words and actions of Russia, China, North Korea, Israel and the US (and the rest of the nuclear club) the sort you think ideal? That the US decides who can have them is darkly hilariously.
- bentobean 1y agoIs the US perfect? Of course not. But considering the alternatives, yes - I am glad the US can serve as the arbiter.
- chasd00 1y agoI think it would mean nuclear weapons in the hands of Hamas, hezbollah and other organizations who could use them without a state/regime to blame. Iran could say “it wasn’t us, you can’t prove anything” meanwhile city after city in Israel is destroyed. Further, any action to destroy Iran’s stockpile would be met with a nuclear response and the claim of self defense.
