1170520 2011-01-17 08:56:00 Thats what they thought when the stuxnet worm arrived. Probably no surprise the US and Israel are in it together. The US like poking their nose into anything and everything Speedy Gonzales (78)

USA is defending its national interests. Those F**king Iranians are everywhere & cause the disorder. Everybody is fed up with their tricks, aren't they?

1170522 2011-01-17 09:12:00 No the US like butting their noses in where they're not wanted.

Whats Iran got to do with the US?? Nothing. So, they try and use a worm against Iran? Lame.

Do the US think they're the only ones who can make nuclear weapons?? Yes? Why? Because they think they rule the world, or they're trying to. Not gonna happen.

1170523 2011-01-17 09:24:00 Sux both isrel and USA have nuclear bombs but they wont let anyone else make them.
The virus will slow Iran down on refining weapons grade uranium but they will get there, as is their sovereign right to make what they like. Using it is another story. The made in USA tested in japan bombs didnt need an interconnected computer system to make it.
Personally I think Iran having the bomb is a counter to isrel having it just like the USA and Russe had bombs but never fired them off at each other.
Bombing the nuke sites in Iran will only slow the refining down as they will put the centrifuges deep underground or in populated area. The world isn't ready for any more Dresden type terror raids. Also I doubt the yanks want to start a third war and the isralis do not have the logistics for in flight refueling bombers there and back plus they might get shot down on the way back.

Precisely. It's because the US is the most powerfull nation (biggest bully, too) in the world.

1170525 2011-01-17 12:00:00 Not really. China's really getting up there, america's seriously at risk of losing everything because they pushed too far for too long. At this rate we'll be ruled by some sort of arabian asian coalition and shortly after we'll all end up being nuked. Not to say I truly think it'll happen, but if we start thinking we're all going to die in a few years or decades, it might encourage us to either lose hope now or start doing something about it. 8ftmetalhaed (14526)
1170526 2011-01-17 12:33:00 Any one who thinks it will be OK if Iran or North Korea get credible nuclear weapons is a bit deluded.

And anyone who things just because the USA has nuclear weapons its OK for everyone else to have them.

During the cold war neither side wanted to use their weapons first.
I don't think Iran or North Korea will worry about that.

The tv article was amazing.
The things that virus could do, I doubt if it really worked like they said it would.
And they want us to believe that the Iranian nuclear industry uses US software?

1170527 2011-01-17 17:33:00 Perhaps Iran should invest in some anti-malware. pctek (84)
1170528 2011-01-17 17:40:00 Yes I have to agree with Digby. The likes of Iran and N Korea are very unstable nations and it wouldn't take to much provocation for them to use there nuclear weapons if and when they get them. Thanks goodness we have the US on our side. Pakistan could be almost included on the list with Iran and N Korea.
