We traveled halfway round the globe to attack & invade Iraq.
So supposedly we have the 'right' to train, arm & support factions there,
but Iran their NEXTDOOR NEIGHBOR DOESNT?

Wow, insanity at its finest.

We were the first power of earth to complete a nuclear weapon, and the only one to use one,

but now we arbitrarily disallow any other nationstate [that doesn't already have one?] to have one?

Pakistan is vastly more unstable, with their population & elements in the military supporting the Taliban & Al Qaeda & has come close to the brink of using them against India over Kashmir.

North Korea is desperately cash poor, & has already sold weapons to terrorist organizations. With an ego-challenged, stability challenged leader.

How is Iran a bigger risk if it becomes nuclear than either of those?

The whole rational for attacking Iran is completely hypocritical bordering on insane.

Admit it most of the reason is fear,
fear pumped up & generated by US government elements bent on attacking Iran & supported by a sensationalist media.

Please America, retrieve your sanity.

The funny part of all of this is that Bush has warned No Korea 18 times in the last 5 years that they better not do anything with nukes - and yet every time they have done something - Bush sits there doing nothing - and this is a country that actually has 9 or 10 nukes. Guess they dont have any oil

They don't have nukes either ,on July 14,2007 IAEA inspectors confirmed the shutdown of North Korea's Yongbyon nuclear reactor

I was referring to the nuclear warheads they have - not the nuclear reactors generating electricity
