Israel 'Childish' On Nukes, Iran's Leader Says
"TEHRAN, Iran -- Iran says Israel would be making a "fatal mistake" if it uses military action over Tehran's nuclear program.
Israel again said yesterday it would not accept Iran having nuclear weapons under any circumstances. The Israeli defense minister says Israel is getting ready for a possible failure of diplomatic efforts.
Iran says the veiled threats are nothing but a "childish game." The Iranian foreign ministry said Israel's comments are a form of "psychological warfare."
Israel considers Iran its biggest threat and has joined the United States in claiming Tehran is trying to build nuclear weapons.
Iran continues to insist that its nuclear program is for generating electricity."
Okay, correct me if I am wrong, but Iran's president has made some highly challenging remarks recently about Israel, including opening an investigation into whether the Holocaust really happened, and "Israel should be wiped off the map."
Now, if your next door neighbor started talking about wiping you off of the map, and then proceded to procure the means of wiping you off of the map, wouldn't you be a little worried and attempt to do what you could to stop them? I don't think there is anything childish about being concerned that your enemy is going to build nukes, especially when the thinly veiled threat is that they will use them against you. Hello, people, remember the Cold War? My generation remembers growing up convinced that if we grew up at all without the bombs dropping, it would be a minor miracle.
It's not like the world is wrong to have these suspiciouns. After all, North Korea was just going to use use its plants to generate electricity, and look how well that turned out.
I am not going to make any predictions on this one. I am sitting here, safe and sound in my living room. All I want is for others in the world to have the same.
