Stop the Bomb (But Allow Iranian Nuclear Enrichment)

by Philip Weiss on October 31, 2008 · 4 comments

Trita Parsi of the National Iranian American Council says in the Guardian says that an Iranian bomb, and more bombs in the Middle East, is a horrifying prospect. Put all international energy into allowing enrichment, thereby allowing Iranian scientific prestige. But stop the bomb. And what about those bombs kickin around in Dimona? What happens if Israel starts to fragment?

Israel.

And just so that journalists don't get ideas of letting anybody know about killing peacefull dissidents or just plain civilians, they kill journalists as well:

Just one example on England's respected tv channel:

Shhhhh! Quiet John and Eva! Richard is meditating on the good and true and sustainable and democratic nature of his spiritual homeland.

Please stop interrupting with your bigoted "facts" and "history".
