There isn't any. It simply doesn't exist. I have the plans for several aircraft on my computer. I give you my word I'm not looking to build any of them. But I retain the right to. The US reserves the right to act unilaterally and in contravention of international law if it feels threatened, should we not extend that right to Iran? Why? Or why not?

You and I both know that democracy is not what we want in Iran. Unless of course they elect the right people. We've already seen the punishment we deal out if the wrong guy gets elected. If we deem it right and proper, we'll drop our democracy from American B52s.
