    All countries should have a right to nuclear enegy and nuclear weapons if they please. Why should they be dictated to? The US and Israel have no authority over Iran.

    Any country can move it's armed forces to a particular border, or implement trade sanctions "if they please" - it's up to that administration to know the consequences for such actions both regionally and internationally.

    You are arguing that Israel has a right to nuclear energy and weapons, fine, but Iran has repeatedly claimed they are not developing weapons and furthermore that it is unIslamic to do so.. therefore this cat and mouse game they are playing with the concerns of regional and international countries is doing nothing but hurting the country.

    Sorry to rake up and old post. But just in case anyone is interested - the case that the US if far less interested in oil abroad than people claim, and indeed that energy independance is on the horizon.

    Interest in Middle East oil will and has fallen much faster than even that - as other, friendly and non tyranical - governments are there to easily pick up the slack.
