"Look at how we deal with India and Pakistan with new diplomacy! How we give credence to General Musharraf's government! Why? Because they are NUCLEAR powers now."

India has always enjoyed some level of adequate relations with the US- never having ever really stood in our way, and the reason we make nice with Pakistan is because they are the ONLY major muslim power willing to *really* help us in the terrorism department, and the DESPERATELY need us as brokers with India, a war with which they would not survive more than a few days.

BTW General Musharraf is no longer in power, and if you know much about these things you would know that.

"But nuclear weapons...yes!"

again, bull, we would stomp him like a bug if he went nuclear.

"Saddam sees this."

He sees wrong if he does, and we could easily make sure he knows the truth.

"The bitter hatred for Iran has not faded - that's why Iran is using Russia to build reactors."
You mean was, of course... You should work on that Facts thing, its sort of important.

"Saudi Arabia recently declared interest in PURCHASING outright nuclear weapons "

Yess.... our beloved ally.... and your point?

"You may dispute the analysis of intelligence agencies which dig up the data, but you have yet to make a case that such nuclear work is not occurring or if it is "

Since you and your guys want the war, the burden of proof is on them. Forged Nigerian papers? El Baredei saying that not one shred of evidence exists for a nuclear program? Aluminium tubes that turned out to not have the qualities needed for centrafuge uranium refining? Is this your proof?

"and declare he has an arsenal of nukes to blow up Israel or anyone who attacks him - he will ENSURE he and his sons are never removed from power "

We handled krechev, we can handle a two-bit twit with tweedle dee and tweedle dum for sons. He knows that he would die. He is deterred. and there is no evidence for nuke production in any case.

"Keep up the rhetoric though, your persistance is endearing. "

Smarmy and demeaning come-backs after a solid drubbing just demonstrate complete loss of the argument, which I find endearing.
