Related: About this forumMitt Romney on Iran's Nuclear Program
-snip-
Romney: If I were Iran, if I were Irana crazed fanatic, I'd say let's get a little fissile material to Hezbollah, have them carry it to Chicago or some other place, and then if anything goes wrong, or America starts acting up, we'll just say, "Guess what? Unless you stand down, why, we're going to let off a dirty bomb." I mean this is where we havewhere America could be held up and blackmailed by Iran, by the mullahs, by crazy people. So we really don't have any option but to keep Iran from having a nuclear weapon.
Romney didn't appear to understand that a dirty bomban explosive device that spreads radioactive substancesdoes not require fissile material from a nuclear weapons program. Such a bomb can be produced with, say, radioactive medical waste. If Iran's nuclear program poses a threat, it is not because this project will yield a dirty bomb.

I have a feeling that the Iranians themselves will say that this man is nuts.
Mitt Romney is an asshole who's in search of an enema.
