It's ok for Pakistan and India to have nukes but not Iran? Maybe while the Soviet Union was developing nuclear weapons after WW2 we should have told them no? If we are going to bomb every country that does something to annoy us, well, we will need a friggin' lot of bombs. (Just for clarification, I served 8 years in the USAF so please don't start calling me a liberal or a hippie, or anti-American, whatever. Thanks.)
Side note; When Iran has their first major nuclear accident, and they will, I don't want to help them in any way. They are making the choice to pursue nuclear weapons. Deal with the consequences.

It's called protecting your national security. Nuclear weapons + despotic regime + hatred of US = big trouble. Better to nip it in the bud before it gets to crisis level
