I have a hard time believing that even Bush would be dumb enough to start another war right now. Doesn't mean it won't happen, just seems like a bit of a stretch, to me.

Just for the record - there is no such this as a justifiable pre-emptive war, in my opinion.

Also, it's obviously a total bluff on Iran's part to be taken seriously. No country in its right mind would really want to fire a nuclear weapon at the US. They would be wiped off the face of the earth in minutes flat. And they know this, if they have a brain in their head.

The US has nuclear weapons and has seen how dreadful they are. They have worked to reduce the numbers of nuclear weapons in the world and continue to do so.

I trust the US not to use them again.

I don't trust Iran not to use them.

Noslave, are you pulling my chain, or what?
If the US is not intending to use any nuclear weapons, why do they have such a huge pile of them?
And they only work to reduce the nuclear weapons held by other countries, not themselves.
The US obligations under the nuclear non proliferation treaty are voluntary. For everyone else, it is mandatory.
In fact Bush's representatives to the NPT have deliberately frustrated attempts to reach an agreement on what needs to be done.
Hypocritically, whilst telling all the other countries they should not have nuclear weapons, they are developing a new kind of nuclear bomb,- for blowing up bunkers!!
The logic behind this appears to be, "let's develop a special bomb, so we can blow up hidden stashes of other folks bombs."
