Iran has WMDs and so does Israel. As much as Iran loves to talk about destroying Israel [and vice versa] both sides are aware that they aren't going to survive a full on war. Look at the Cuban Missile Crisis. Russia felt they had to put weapons in Cuba, even though they knew that if they were found the US would take action. Back in the day they called it 'Brinksmanship,' a variation of 'statesmanship.' A 'brinksman' was a leader/diplomat who could bring his country to the edge of war without going over the edge.
You can trust Harris or Biden to have some cooler heads in the War Room. Trump listens to no one and acts like a child.
Are these iranian WMD's in the room with us? Cos if so, it's time to "Bomb Bomb Bomb Bomb Bomb Iran". Is it really that time of day again?
Funny. Israel has never admitted to having nukes but you have no problem believing that they do.
All I know is, if I were the Iranian PM and I knew that my enemies had WMDs I would be building them.
I mean, Ukraine had nukes and gave them away and look how well that turned out for them
What do you know about what I believe?
You're the one who specifically mentioned Iran and ignored Israel.
I didn't say anything about Israel. That does not communicate anything about what I think regarding the country. You don't know what I think - you're making assumptions. When you assume you make an ass out of u.
You also ignored the fact that Obama made a treaty with Iran regarding nuclear weapons.

The ignorant tend to ignore a lot of things, hence the name.
You ignore the fact that you don't know what I ignore or not. You are having an argument with what you think I think, instead of what I have said here. In some circles that's called "making shit up", "being crazy", etc. I can see you and know you are nuts.
