Why not? We allowed Pakistan and India to develope nukes whit little more than an occasional scolding.
In order to even begin to address the issues, our government must first stop its sabre-rattling. It was this jingoism which led to a resurgence in the power of the fundamentalist mullah's in Iran. It has also contributed mightily to the intransigence of Iran on the nuclear issue. They feel wholly justified in their pursuit of nuclear weapons in light of the Bush administration's ill-concieved, ill-omened and ill-advised war of aggression into Iraq, prior to which, Iran was evolving into, if not a wholly secular society, at least one less controlled by fundamentalist mullahs.
