"Iran can also be wiped off the map" -Israel

[caravel]

Erm. Why do the liberals here find it acceptable that an autocracy should have nuclear weapons? By the same arguments you make, the "world police" should have allowed Hitler to possess nukes too.

Don't use the liberal tag, it's far too easy to pigeonhole someone in this way instead of listening to their opinions.

The government of Iran publicly seeks the anihilation of Israel.

In your opinion, where's your evidence? Many muslim states have voiced empty threats against israel, the US, the UK and other's direction in the past, why is this any different apart from fitting the US agenda. All you have is one impotent statement and nothing more.

The government of Israel does not seek the destruction of Iran.

I would say not, but that is hardly relevant to this debate. Just because Israel don't seek to destroy Iran and are US allies, it's ok for them to stockpile as many nukes and violate as many UN resolutions as they like? Simply because we believe that they don't intend to use them. I can think of several of the nuclear powers and the one that seems most likely to use it's nuclear weapons is Israel. It's hardly a stable country and is surrounded by enemies, and in a state of constant infighting and terrorist activity. The question is why should anyone trust Israel let alone Iran?

You same people would stand by and watch the holocaust happen all over again.

It was right wing intolerant bigots that persecuted and executed jews during the holocaust, people that wanted supreme power and absolute control over their neighbours, not muslim states like Iran and not your "Liberals".
