Where do we get off telling Iran they are moving in the wrong direction by developing nuclear energy?

I totally have to agree with you there. Just b/c we don't particularly like somebody, doesn't form a legal basis for actions against them.

Yeah, we should have attacked Iran instead. That would have gone over much better.

Pro'lly true--as Frederick Forsyth even hinted (in "The Negotiator"), there'd be no American mourning for Iran.

This has always been an inevitability. Nuclear knowledge/technology is bound to find it's way into the hands of everyone that wants it. We are silly for believing that we can contain it to only our own allies. In fact, these efforts (along with our military-strategy-based foreign policy) have only spurred on the efforts of other nations (our "enemies") to develop their own nuclear weapons. We can't stop it, and "Star Wars" is a freaking waste of time and money (at least right now), and will only create more "arms race". We need to rethink a lot of stuff. The world is too small for all this competition. We need to think more like the one race that we are. After all, what will the aliens think when they get here? lol
