Iran

Iran

I would rather let them know that if they ever used one of their nukes, we will hit them with 50 and turn their entire country into glass.

Firstly, I voted for negotiate and it would taker an extreme situation before I would ever consider supporting a nuclear strike. That said, I think it's time to reconsider using neutron bombs in our arsenal to make the point to small rogue nations, they can be wiped out and their neighbors spared. I'm sure Iran and Korea, for instance, know they are relatively safe because all the long lived radiation from a nuclear detonation would hurt surrounding nations and the planet in general. Knowing that it might be possible to deploy a neutron bomb and not have the wide ranging devastation associated with other nuclear devices may give them something to actually worry about. During the cold war it may have been a good idea to ban the neutron bomb, although it prevented some interesting development of nuclear based rocket propulsion, but it's at least time to review this position.

Don't get me started on that peabrain, I mean peanut farmer.

Give me a break! They said the same thing about Iraq and found nothing!
The US is the terrorist. We've been terrorizing since our independence. Just gave it a pretty name: Manifest Destiny.
Lock and load

Anybody that believes the US is a Terrorist country is a nut case, pure and simple.I,m guessing you believe we took down the twin towers too.

1. The leaders of a sovereign foreign nation are evil.
2. The citizens of that nation are equally guilty.
3. Therefore, the United States, as a Moral Nation, has the right to bomb that country.

What makes you think that the "citizens of that nation are equally guilty?"; haven't you seen the massive protests in baghdad
recently?
It realy hurts to say this, but
what makes you think that the US is still a moral nation?
perhaps you refer to the torture?
or to having invaded and occupied the wrong country after having killed many of its innocent civilians?
or maybe you refer to letting 50,000 of its own people die every year for the lack
of proper health care?

You can go ahead and bomb that country but don't look for an alibi in morality,
that does not work.

I believe that the neutron bomb, like the EMP bomb, is still mouldering away in our arsenal of options. Whether or not we choose to use either is doubtful with our having a Muslim indoctrinated individual in the White House.

Why do you think I put a question mark after "syllogism"? You have completely missed the point: NO COUNTRY HAS THE RIGHT TO DESTROY INNOCENT LIVES.
Two of the three points in my little piece of sarcasm were obviously and intentionally false: numbers 2 and 3. Some of the people who advocate bombing another country think that way and missed the point a long time ago.
