Anonymous-today, what name did I call you?

what a hilariously

what a hilariously misleading title the poster chose for this piece of news. Fortunately, no one seems to be falling for such silly propaganda tactics.

FK, now you're being

a Jackass. I made the mistake of thinking I can have a reasonable conversation with you. I won't make that mistake again. I mentioned in another thread that you are braindead and dogmatic and mentally no different from the very same Hezbollahis that you hate so much. Instead of responding to my points, as I did to yours, you start namecalling and sloganeering. Your response to my reasonable arguments simply confirmed this for me once and for all.

India is trusted with the nuclear technology, because India is a trustworthy government, unlike your beloved IRI regime.

The reason India didn’t sign the treaty because it doesn’t want its hands to be tied when its confronting Pakistan. Yes, they should sign it, but that doesn’t mean in reality, not in idealistic circumstances, India is not trusted with nuclear technology.

The problem with people like you is that they think the world surrounds around “challenging U.S hegemony”. That says that you hate the U.S more than you love your own country. What is the world “challenging” mean? How is it done? What is the price to pay? Is U.S really the only superpower? Most importantly, how on earth can you claim that India and Pakistan didn’t challenge the U.S? Look, India is 100 times more of a sovereign nation than Iran. Your beloved regime had to sell our resources to China and Russia, give away 33% of our rights in the Caspian sea, and get humiliated by Russia and China, just so it “seems” like there is an anti U.S coalition, where as China and Russia will never ever leave the U.S for Iran. They are just using our beautiful country like a playing card in their competition with the U.S.

As you said, at this point of time in our history, we can only dream about being a democracy like India, with all its flaws.

The regime is definitely hiding something. That’s why Al Baradei said just couple of days ago that Iran is not answering all our questions and is not cooperating with us. If they have nothing to hide, then whats the problem? That’s common sense, isn’t it? Also, the regime will never ever use the bomb against Israel, we all know that. But the regime has two reasons to get the bomb, and I’m not saying their reasons are realistic, just telling you what they think: 1- By joining the nuclear club, they know realistically, their bargaining capacity against the world increases dramatically. They think they’re not gonna make the same mistakes the USSR did, but having a bomb insures their survival against foreign threats 2-the same reasons as point one, but this time against the Iranian people. it’s a tool to terrorize the Iranian people and the world, don’t you get it?

The problem with you is that you trying to make sense out of idealistic point of view, not realistic, that’s not considering that you are supporting the regime. Yes, in an idealistic world, no matter how evil a regime is, that paper at IAEA says they have the right to nuclear technology. But in the real world, 1- Evil regime SHOULD NOT get any tool that increases their power. 2- IAEA does not have all the tools to be an effective monitory organization.

So please be real.

If the "world" supported India's nuclear ambitions why is it that India is still not a signatory to the NPT? You should know that even your beloved Mr. Bush has dropped hints that India should join the NPT, has suggested incentives. The fact is that you're either part of the international covenants or you're not. It's not conditional on your intentions or that you're a "great" democracy. India doesn't have moral authority to tell squat to Iran or any other country. The reason the US hasn't reacted to Pakistan and India's acquiring the bomb is that they don't challenge US hegemony. In other word they're willing to play ball with the big guy. By the way this great democracy has had long periods of emergency rule in its history where it has suspended its democratic insitutions, has suppressed its ethnic minorities violently, such as the Sikhs, the Tamil and the Kashmir Muslems, has been from the beginning plagued by cronism and tribal intrigue and rampant corruption. But I respect their system nevertheless and am not comparing it with the IRI.

As to Iran's program. There is no evidence that Iran is in the process of producing nuclear weapons. Iran's the most inspected member of the IAEA. The fact that you and I don't like the regime (and I don't) shouldn't blind us to the facts. You're repeating your claims based on a faith on the evilness of the regime. Besides, even if Iran gets a bomb, what do you think they're going to do with it when Israel has over 200 atmic warheads, not to mention the awsome stockpile of the US, the UK, France and even their so-called neighbour Pakistan?

India is one of the greatest democracies in the world, although not a perfect democracy, cause no such thing exists, but IRI, is at very bottom of the list of undemocratic countries. So yes, India has moral authority.

Also, India has acted as a responsible country, that’s why the world supports its nuclear ambitions. Just today, France signed a nuclear deal with India. Iran, again, is at the bottom of the list of responsible countries.

Also, Iranians, like myself, absolutely support our “country’s” right to nuclear power, but no Iranian support this regime’s nuclear ambitions. Because they know, if the regime gets it, that is a death sentence for Iran. They either gonna act irrwponsibility while having it, or they will never ever give an inch of any compromise back to the Iranian people since they know they’re so powerful now.

NON-NPT members enforcing NPT!!!!!!

Israel and India, two countries who disagree with NPT are trying to enforce NPT regulations by force!!!!! Can't get more ironic than that!

The pot and the kettle

Here is a country - the so-called largest (read unstable) democracy in the world - that has acquired nuclear weapons itself by unilaterally withdrawing from the IAEA, and is currently run by a bunch fascist Hindu nationalists. where the hell India gets the moral gaul to tell Iran, yes, even Iran of the IRI, squat? India couldn't care less about the people of Iran, FK, so stop with your nonsense. Besides if you really cared what the people of Iran think, you'd know the majority are supportive of the regime's position vis-a-vis the nuclear technology (right or wrong) even if they don't the like the regime. Perhaps the people of Iran you're thinking about exists only in your head.
