Let's remember now that every European country still uses oil, and oil from the ME.Dilbert_X wrote:
There is enough sunlight in Arizona to power the whole US.It's always baking there in the middle east... they should just use solar power...
Maybe the US should get off its flabby butt, stop driving SUVs and develop a system not reliant on the middle eastern oil.

As long as Israel has nukes, other Middle Eastern states will continue to aim for acquiring them themselves, and you really can't blame them for doing so.
Sounds great as long as the ME countries are not involved or included or have a say in any inspections regarding Israel.Braddock wrote:

I agree, nuclear energy should be available, but Iran has not earned the trust of the international community to have their program go unchecked. I gotta think threatening to destroy another country probably does not help their cause.Braddock wrote:
I'd be happier if the US kept itself to itself and saved it's handouts for it's own homeless and needy and maybe sorted out it's financial system. I agree that any nation, not just Iran, should be closely monitored when nuclear energy is involved and I welcome the idea Iran put forward where Russia could be brought in to deal with the more risky aspects of the nuclear process. Iran are entitled to nuclear energy for civilian use.
How about this for a peace plan for the Middle East...all Muslim nations in the region are not allowed to develop nukes and are strictly monitored and Israel agree to give up all their nuclear weaponry and allow in inspectors..fair is fair.
What's the point in inspections? Israel will never give up their illegal cache and as such it is in the interest of all Arab nations to become nuclear capable. As soon as Pakistan falls into the hands of an anti-western government I'd say they'll just grant the technology to any Arab nation willing to throw them a couple of rupees anyway.lowing wrote:

Well, it is a good thing all of those ME countries are peaceful, tolerant, and non-violent or we might just have a problem on our hands.CameronPoe wrote:

Now of course, I am sure this is all about energy and has nothing to do with weapons programs. Yeah it is for energy, gotta be.
