Peace on Earth
"But Iran's top nuclear negotiator Hassan Rohani told Reuters in an interview this week there was nothing the West could offer Iran that would tempt it to give up its atomic fuel cycle. " (Reuters)
"North Korea (news - web sites) declared Thursday for the first time it possessed nuclear weapons and pulled out indefinitely from six-party talks on its atomic ambitions, saying it needed a defense against a hostile United States. " (Reuters)
Great, now we have two most irrational regimes playing the nuclear sabers.
How do you think the world should react? Do you see a possibility that diplomacy will work? Is it that bad to let Iran posses nuclear weapon capabilities? Do you really care about this issue if you live in South America or Africa or any Third World Country?
I hope this time we got more international response than the usual American/Australian responses we get from this type of posting.

"Experts from the U.S. Defense Department, the Pentagon and Israel have put final touches to a plan to launch a military strike targeting Iran�??s nuclear facilities, experts at the European Commission based in Brussels, revealed on Sunday." (Al Jazeera)
iran is often threatened by the United States, so developing nuclear technology is a rational thing for its government to maintain power; it is not a good choice for the world community.
"It is crucial to see the big picture and take the long view. The key North Korea question is how and when - not whether - this ghastly failed regime will cease to be. Just possibly it might manage to morph into something more sensible, like China and Vietnam. But that looks a long shot. It is only prudent to guard against and plan for much bumpier landings." (Asia Times)
north korea has been the world's biggest security problem for a long time. the US under Bush has not given enough high-level attention to n. korea's nuclear, biological, chemical weapons, its heroin trafficking, its counterfeiting... meanwhile china, russia and s. korea are called the "axis of carrot"
