Terrorist Iranian President Says He'll Pass Along Nuclear Technology to Other Arab Nations

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has told Turkey's prime minister that Iran is ready to "transfer nuclear know-how to other Islamic countries." He made the comments at the U.N. summit in New York.

This is why Iran must not be allowed to develop nuclear weapons.

The Europeans have taken the lead in talks with Iran to get the Iranians to forego any nuclear weapons development. Despite cracks in EU unity, they are continuing their efforts.

U.S. attempts to get the matter referred to the U.N. Security Council have stalled as many nations are leaning toward giving the Iranians several weeks to comply with International Atomic Energy Agency resolutions which call for Iran to stop developing nuclear weapons.

Given the fact that the Iranians are said to be at least five years away from developing crude atomic arms, a delay of a few weeks to get the Iranians to come to their senses and get rid of their own weapons program seems reasonable.

The U.S. should be patient and allow diplomacy to work. We don't need any more cowboy adventures; our military is stretched WAY too thin, despite what the brass says. The EU approach is the correct one in this matter.

All talk of U.S. unilateral military action should also be stopped.

Consider: a military conflict between the U.S. and Iran would probably not be confined to Iranian borders; it would spill over into Iraq and Afghanistan as both countries border Iran, and U.S. troops are still there in vast numbers.

The Iranians hate the U.S. as much as (if not more than) al-Qaeda and would invade one or both countries to kill U.S. soldiers in large numbers for revenge. In the meantime, Iraq and Afghanistan's recovery efforts would collapse and the situation in those nations would worsen beyond belief.

With a known terrorist as Iran's political leader (and with the backing of the mullahs), it's very likely that Iran will not comply with the IAEA orders and things will move from there.

A united international front against Iran is needed, not a "go-it-alone" attitude from the U.S.

It's time for the U.S. to join the group and do it right. Divisiveness will only lead to delay and the nuclear clock is definitely running with Iran.
