Iranian Nukes

Paul Mirengoff at Power Line has an interesting article on the fact that the Obama Administration (like the Bush Administration) is not willing to take action to prevent Iran from having nuclear weapons.  That's where the resemblance ends.

This week Assistant Secretary of State Rose Gottemoelle asked Israel to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.  It is suspected that Israel has had nuclear weapons for some time, and the idea here is to say that because Israel has nuclear weapons it is ok for Iran to have them.  Nice idea, but it doesn't line up with the facts.  Israel has never questioned Iran's right to exist and has never threatened to blow Iran off the face of the earth.  Ahmadinejad of Iran does both frequently.

President Obama has stated that until the Palestinians have their state, he is not willing to tackle the problem of Iranian nuclear weapons.  Evidently he feels that with a new terrorist state in place right beside Israel, the nuclear weapons issue will solve itself.  Sure.  A two-state solution for Israel and Palestine would be a good idea if the Palestinians were willing to form a functioning state with a functioning government.  So far they have destroyed infrastructure that would have generated income rather than increase it.  They have used the money they have received in foreign aid to buy weapons and they have chosen not to function as a state.  Why do we think giving them more land and calling them a state is going to change that?  Future behavior can be predicted based on past behavior.   Anyone who has raised children knows that.

My prediction on this is very simple.  At some point in the near future Iran will have nuclear weapons, and it will use them on Israel (and if they can develop a delivery method, on the US).  Unless Israel takes out their reactors, this will happen.  If Israel takes out their reactors, the civilized world will condemn Isreal while secretly breathing a sigh of relief.  That's where we are.
