    America has the right to dictate which countries do/don't have nukes? It's an honest question. When/how did America earn control over whether or not other countries can have nukes? Serious answers only please.

    when slavery began...it was the blueprint to world domination..

    Listen it's always been about who has the power translation guns ...America is the world power so it's literally do as I say or else your ass is grass...and tbh I don't have a real problem with it in it's current form. We can't and don't control other countries that have a powerful military such as China, Germany, etc...however, there a too many rouge elements out there that need to be dominated...

    Listen I don't beleive that just because you're born you have the right to live..there are tons of bad guys out there whether people looking to break into your home or world rulers / dictators killing on a mass scale...they're all the same to me...and I believe in the death penalty 1000% those ers should not be allowed to live....tbqh...

    but every dog has it's day...our turn will come soon and I fear it will be at the hands of China...I just hope I'm long gone and any future kids of mine should be safely relocated to Canada or married to a Chinese citizen for protection...

    Lol who is wanting nukes? People consistently violating human rights, trade regs, and international borders.

    Most common sense reasons your professor must not have brought up.like a nuclear arms race. such as how if Iran gets them, then Saudis Arabia will develop them. Or the fact that Iran will give the info to SCIRI, JAN, and Hezbollah.who will give it to Al qeada, the real IRA, and other groups.

    Since dok can't have an original thought without it approved by his professors, I wouldn't imagine you could use cognitive thinking.

    as usual, your best argument is an ad-hominem attack claiming that I'm just listening to my professor (which is odd because Iran having nukes isn't a topic that appears very much in accounting, finance, or business classes).

    You also never answered the question. Why does the US have the right to control Iran's nuclear capabilities? I understand you think it'll be bad if Iran had nuclear weapons, explain why the US is allowed to control what a sovereign country does.

    It also says something that your only argument is a slippery slope claiming that if Iran got nukes, then every terrorist group in the middle east will have nukes. Regardless of the fact Al-Qaeda is powerless these days and has no money or resources, somehow they'll get nukes if Iran gets nukes.

    You actually posed two separate questions...

    1. Why does America have the right? Tough question, but I think you could argue that unstable leaders possessing nuclear weapons are a legitimate threat to our sovereignty.

    2. When/how did America earn control? Easy. When the Soviet Union fell and America became the pre-eminent superpower, both militarily and economically. That level of global influence has waned over the past decade, but we still have strong allies that will support our agenda for the most part.

    When your the top military power in the world, your constantly paranoid about others bringing you down or surpassing your power. We are the top alpha-male in the world when it comes to military, and we want to remain that way for as long as possible. Rome was a super power for what a thousand something years?? We want to be the same!

    Where is the proof that Iran is making a nuke?
    Where is the proof they want to attack us?
    Their military has no chance against ours even with a nuke, we are just getting brainwashed by Israel to do all their work for them.
    And honestly man the Soviet union may have fell, but they still remain a danger to just in terms of military, as does China, I hope we don't attack Iran because it might ignite into WW3.

    Which allies do we have left other than Israel that support our imperialistic ambitions in the middle east? The war in Iraq alienated almost all of them. I can also think of two very powerful countries (perhaps the 2nd and 3rd most powerful countries in the world) that are adamantly against the US ing with Iran.

    As far as the part about America being the world's superpower, you're saying that if country A is stronger than country B economically and militarily then country A is allowed to control country B however it wants and sanction it for whatever reason it wants? That's a really scary way to think, "The one with the guns can do whatever he wants!" Thank god our country isn't set up like that.

    I would wager India can be "convinced" (aka paid up) to back us up, tbh.

    and Iran of all countries is a country to worry about bringing America down or surpassing its power?

    We are the top alpha-male in the world when it comes to military, and we want to remain that way for as long as possible.
    And you think Iran is a true threat to America's status as the "alpha-male" of the world?

    Rome was a super power for what a thousand something years?? We want to be the same!
    If this is serious, then holy is all I have to say.

    "could argue that unstable leaders possessing nuclear weapons are a legitimate threat to our sovereignty."

    The fatal counter-argument is that Mutual Assured Destruction has kept nuclear out of the game for 65 years, except for America murdering non-Christian, non-white non-combatants for political ends, aka, terrorism.

    Americans like AFBlue have already been brainwashed into thinking Iraq had WMDs that threatened us and were gonna be used on us, those Americans can easily be tricked all over again

    Exactly, Russia and China are both allies to Iran and have no obligation to side with the US. A war in Iran would also probably lead to our deficit getting even more out of control and ultimately defaulting. China won't be very pleased with the US when they default on a payment to China because they're busy spending money occupying China's ally.
