    Why can't Iran have Nukes if we do?

    Lol...let the whole world have 'em! As long as they sign this silly piece of paper (NPT).....that means Nothing...they won't use them. Suuuuuuure....While we're at it, let's also make sure they have fair access to biological weapons too! At least we can all feel better about ourselves and rest easy at night knowing we played fair.....personally I'd sleep easier if they didn't have any of it...call me crazy. Again, when talking about WMD's the thought of "fair" being part of the thought process is absolutely mind boggling. Break out those Mac n cheese plants Nino!

    All kidding aside, this very thread has changed my perspective about a couple things. I still don't want Iran to have nukes. I'm even thinking it might be a good idea for Isreal to think about a show of good faith and get rid of their nukes.

    My bad.....I missed the context on that one, so I was still in conversation mode.

    They are trying their best to influence opinions and as long as folks listen to them without being reasonable about the actual history and real facts and information....they'll get away with it.

    It's easy to build a case for war, cause people are so mean-spirited these days. It's hard to convince people that love is better for us than hate and peace is better than war when they're suffering and struggling. Where do you place blame?

    That's when they step in and tell you who to hate......immigrants, terrorists, and anything else that they can sell to average folks as the root of all their problems.

    We gotta learn to rise above all their hate-mongering, muckraking, and mud-slinging and find reasons to love one another!

    You're right...I was just pointing to commonly known wars and conflicts.

    We have made so much war in the world...it's no wonder some folks are angry, but we are so quick to ignore our history now....we get mad at folks getting mad with us and don't even remember why they're mad in the first place.

    My real point is we gotta stop viewing ourselves and the world through BS labels and crap definitions.

    I missed Santo's point in conversation and ignored overall context in the moment, but I really think somebody should turn off Drudge's internet, so I had to throw a tomato at that dude!

    Israel has to first officially admit to having them don't they? Then again...they won't get that US aid if they admit it due to the ban on funding countries that proliferate weapons of mass destruction. Guess they better keep quiet and pretend forever!

    I think most folks get your greater point of overall safety in the region, but the only way to stop creating strife in the world is to play fair and to care for humanity without bias.

    Think of how much money we'd save if we stopped trying to police the world and just did what we could to help, while mostly minding our business....cause it certainly needs minding right now!

    Then we could put money where it truly belongs.....mac & cheese plant research! Even if it was just that kraft box stuff....it would be a giant leap for mankind!!!

    hehe

    Japanese scientists have found a way to reconstitute poop and make it into tasty nutritious meat-stuff. We need to get on that QUICK! (no joke, peak nitrogen is here along with everything else)

    If it's true...I'm not surprised! They are killing us with the crap they are feeding us and it's all in the name of profit.

    I got so sick watching a few food documentaries recently I only ate fruits and veggies for 2 weeks! (had the best seedless green and red grapes I've eaten in years I might add)

    I can't wait for the weather to break...I'm plantin' all kinds of stuff!
