I don't have answers and I'm also confused and not sure what logic dictates. Sit and watch and do nothing doesn't sit well with me in hopes someone else foots the bill?

Yes the list is getting longer and the original N5 could have worked together better to reduce proliferation. Part of me thinks "If you start building nukes you should get nuked". That'll send a quick message other states that have an agenda.

Peaceful being the key phrase. Hell I have no problem with people having electricity regardless of race or religion. I myself am a Huge fan I'm okay with states having nuclear power but I'm not okay with them being a nuclear power. Poor choice of words.

And Pakistan, the UAE and Saudi Arabia are just sucking their thumbs?
Well what's your take? I'm all ears...

I would think or hope that at some point you need to make an example of those proliferating so that others might heed the warning to stop eff'ing around with nuclear proliferation and WMD.

That's what Iraq is all about. So far no one is getting the drift. And it's very frustrating that the burden once again seems to fall on the shoulders of the US. I hate to think what the world would be like right now without America... despite our shortcommings.
