Time to turn off Fox news. Time to turn off the Sean Hannity and Glenn Beck there buddy.  Lets think about this for one second, I know it's difficult but bear with me here... What would Iran gain in nuking the United States? Absolutely nothing, their entire civilization would be destroyed by our counter strike. Do you think any nation or people regardless of their politics or religion desires this? No, of course not. It's all just neocon propaganda.   They want it as a deterrent, it's that simple. And you know what? I can't blame them one bit. Wouldn't you want a deterrent if the worlds only super power was including your nation in the axis of evil?  They could not launch a full out tactical strike on our shores but they could smuggle nuclear devices to our shores via terrorist groups that they support and finance.  Since 1979 we have been the ''great satan'' for how many millions of indoctrinated islamic scholars under the teachings of their radical clerics.Now considering the fact that martyrdom is the pinnacle of success for this twisted religion they could very well start a climatic war knowing full well that they could not win.  Our esteemed leader was right when he denounced them as part of the axis of evil,lets hope he learned from experience in iraq and does not commit us to a ground war.Lets hope he shows them what a threat to humanity nuclear weapons really are and how they work.
