Iran Still Coy On Nukes

Do you actually have to have nukes to commit nuclear blackmail? In the case of Iran I guess you do not. How can we justify giving rewards to countries because they decided not to behave the worst? If rewarding people for not doing their worst is how we are going to function in the new world era then we are headed down a very dangerous slippery slope. How can we even consider rewarding a country because it is not building weapons of mass destruction? Isn’t this the way it should be? Why reward someone for just doing the right thing? Where has all of the human logic gone to?

It has been reported that there are six world powers which have agreed to substantial incentives in an effort to persuade Iran to abandon nuclear program of uranium enrichment.

For all we know they are bluffing and they may never have a nuclear weapon, and to just give them something for nothing is absurd. The idiots will say we are giving them something for the assurance they are not building weapons of mass destruction and to this I must retort with a resounding ‘WHAT!” We are rewarding them because they are not potentially going to follow through on their public threats to wipe Israel off of the face of the world, is this correct? How can we reward this sort of behavior, they threaten and we give them rewards? What type of responsible behavior is this for either party involved?

They must not be allowed to threaten others and they should be forced to be a responsible citizen country of the world, not a country that behaves like a wild child.
