Other countries like China and Russia don't like Iran's prospects either.

[Deja Q]

So why aren't they doing more to stop them?

[NorCalDem]

1. Because why should they

they know we're going to bomb, and if they don't have to be involved why should they look like the bad guy? :shrug:

[Redstone]

2. Maybe because they realize that Iran's internal affairs are

none of their fucking business? Too bad we can't.

4. Exactly. This is between Iran and the UN, which it royally dissed.

And the UN is making its own stature that much worse by doing nothing.

3. That's my issue ...

Should the European Union take the lead on this Iran Nuke Issue? After all they are in their back yard. I'm so sick of * embarrassing us and playing bully-boy at every given opportunity. Can't he give it a rest once in a while?

5. Because they know it will be years until Iran actually builds a nuke?

And they think there is time for diplomacy?

[Crunchy Frog]

6. They probably want to see Iran acting as a check

on US power. They're doing what I would probably do if I were in their position.

[Joe Chi Minh]

7. Is it likely they would expect it to be a success for the US?

8. I believe that Iran or any other Country with the money could

buy nukes, ready to use on the black market. That's what V. Plame was investigating when she was outed. Nice job, Georgie.
