Iran hasn't initiated an invasion on any nation since it was Persia when Darius III (who died in 330 BCE) fought Alexander the Great! Now before writing another word, both Israeli and Palestinian leaders have said they want to wipe each other off the map, what P. M. Netanyahu recently proclaimed when he flew to Washington to blatantly go over President Obama's head in his insidious campaign interfering with a foreign nation. Besides, Senator McCain, 46 members of Congress wrote a letter to Netanyahu, a reckless act now documented in history.
Dear Ones,
Can Iran, that was never permitted to be a state, be trusted? Can Israel by trusted? Israel was chosen by the United Nations to be a state. But the U.N. did not do the same for Iran, now a refugee territory.
Historically, no nation was chosen by God. All primitive people thought their deity favored them since they weren't aware of the extent and depth of neighbors' cultures or any other people as far as knowledge goes,
In reality no nation can be trusted when one leader takes over for another and it's nuclear bombs that are the issue. Remember, it was the big cheeses who declared themselves in charge of genocidal bombs when these same powerful nations do most of the carpet bombing and store these massive weapons of mass devastation to threaten the rest of the world, even though these nuclear missiles are outlawed by International Law and Court.
Many political leaders are fickle, lie and manipulate foreign affairs for control, greed of oil on the brain and the spoils of war that keep changing borders. This is why the U.S. and Israel, although attached at the hip through the same Hebrew Bible, have to be independent from one another despite tight family relations. You can't pick your relatives, but you can choose your friends.
Even the nuclear physicists and mathematicians during the Manhattan Project opposed dropping atomic bombs on human beings and all life. It was President Truman who was in power over the bomb as Los Alamos employees at the National Laboratory in New Mexico only did what they were paid to do.
Ever since humanity started out on Earth men have caused endless world-wide wars. And it was Iraq who attacked Iran during the Gulf Wars when the U.S. exported genocidal means of making toxic child-deforming weapons to Saddam Hussein, a war crime through Bush administrations that has entrapped the Middle East with the rest of Earth caught in the cross-fire and fear of being set of fire as the U.S. invaded, attacked and occupied Iraq in 2003. During these wars and that of the Kurds, untold numbers of Iranians were killed along with the Kurdistan.
Since no one can be trusted with nuclear bombs, why does the United States and Israel have nuclear bombs on ground and stored below the sod, as well as other nations? A threat means ready to go ahead even with outlawed munitions which would result in war crimes.
And it was John McCain who ran for U.S. presidency. With his penchant for bombing he could have started an all-out nuclear war. The only choice of solving the nuclear problem is negotiation that still communicates until the danger is over–dismantling.
The best government is the one who is good to all of its peoples and keeps commercial trade going, far more important then increasing war arsenals.
