Nah, we should spent the next few years boosting our army and navy numbers, bring back enforced conscription, build a few thousand war planes, tanks, destroyers and a couple of aircraft carriers. Then go to war against both korea's teaching them how to get along in the process. We should also take on and wipe out anyone who gets in our way.
Next we take on the Somali pirates, all the despot leaders, and any other country not looking after their own and each others neighbours properly.
We'd have very low unemployment, greater investment in just about everything, the country would make lots more money, and we'd become the worlds regular police force... well someone's gonna have to do it eventually!!  ____________________ Previous: Aprilia Habana Retro 50cc (beauty), Yamaha SR125 (fell apart), Honda XR125 (nippy little commuter), Honda SLR650 (Geewhizz), Yamaha Diversion 900S (Smoooooth) written off courtesy of a stupid escaped horse.

The moral of the story, is when you have nukes, you can do what the fuck you like.
Which is why we try so hard to stop more people getting nukes.
Would we have invaded Iraq if he actually had nukes ? Hell no !
If Iran get nukes, before we invade them, there is no chance we will ever fuck with them either. ____________________ colin1 is officially faster than god |

North Korea can't actually deliver those nuclear weapons though, its rockets are dodgy and they only have the most basic 15kt A bombs which weigh a hell of a lot.
North Korea could be destroyed in 3-4 days with a massive conventional missile strike, the problem is China, as China will back NK to the hilt. And China has some financial nuclear weapons to Samson the world if China is upset.
The US needs China to cease trade and support UN resolutions so sanctions can be bought against Iran, Iran however has played a master stroke, i.e. they have agreed to buy fuel and give back the waste with Turkey meaning the oft touted and dismissed as a conspiracy theory of Iran being able to export oil has been proven to be true. ____________________ Spain 2008France 2007Big one 2009 We all die.

Iran currently is an importer of oil, which many find to be strange as it sits on a sea of oil, many people say why do they want nuclear power if they sit on a sea of oil?
The answer to this is that Iran has suffered decades of US and UN sanctions meaning it's oil refining capacity is delapidated and has been falling in capacity for quite some time now.
The oil Iran extracts out of the ground it burns to produce electricity. What you burn yourself you cannot sell. If Iran can get nuclear power instead of burning the oil they can export their oil.
Iran's oil exchange uses Euros and other middle eastern currencies but this had no effect as Iran above Iran imports oil.
If Iran starts to export a significant amount of oil which it will when it gets nuclear power underway the US$ as a world reserve currency will be underserious threat. Note Saddam wanted to trade oi in Euros and he ended up in a noose.
Iran does this along with partner China who peeved off the US last year by agreeing in principle to upgrading Iran's oil processing capacity. Then the US$ is in for some big trouble as it's status as world reserve currency starts getting absolutely hammered this economic weapon is far more powerful than 100 nuclear bombs.
The US government does not want this to happen but the above story is hard to sell to Americans so they say nuclear bombs which Americans do understand or 'terrorism' which again they do understand.
Iran recently made a deal with Turkey to swap nuclear fuel with Turkey, meaning they don't have to enrich nuclear fuel themselves and therefore can't really make a bomb out of it.
Because they are doing this, the accusation that Iran wants to build nuclear bombs is blown out the water. As if they buy the fuel from allied countries (Turkey is a US ally) then they can check how many fuel rods go in and how many spent ones come out. ____________________ Spain 2008France 2007Big one 2009 We all die.
