What are the dangers involved in allowing Iran and North Korea the use nuclear capabilities?

There isn't any danger. Because IAEA is observing all nuclear activities in these two countries. So, Will there be any danger? But there are some countries that are making nuclear weapons but no one prohibit them of countinuing their destructive plans. Honest!

None of them. US can't attack any of them. I know US have the best and newest type of weapon but N.Korea have nuke bomb and if Us attack them they will fire them and US with all of it's weapon can't stop them in the air. Also Iran is a very big country and it has a lot of loyal soldiers and it will be a long and hard war with many casualty for US. I know all of them so I'm sure US leaders know these so for certain US won't attack N.Korea or Iran. Iraq was different from Iran or N.Korea because Iraq's people were against Saddam and his dictates and also Iraq didn't defense against US but with all of this facts US have a lot of problems in Iraq so it's another reason. For attacking Iran or N.Korea US need other countries help because it doesn't have enough soldier and also US need other countries to reduce global pressure on US about beginning war in the world. Another reason: N.Korea and Iran if be attacked may do anything they can't and threat the world they may explode what they can. My evidence is Iran's leader's speech which was about this subject, he said we will ruin the world if we will be attacked by another country and he threated to stop producing and transporting oil in the world.

Studying the possibility- yes, most definitely.  My mail has been giving me error messages all morning or I could cite you the reports I've read.\n\nN. Korea, though- No.  I don't think even the U.S. can be that stupid.  They really do have nuclear weapons.  Attacking them would, for sure, end this planet as we know it.

First, if anybody believes we're going to invade either North Korea or Iran, then they are complete fools.\n\nSecond, if anybody believes that NKorea or Iran are going nuclear because of the foolish idea we'd invade them, they're even bigger fools than the complete fools.\n\nNKorea and Iran started their nuclear programs long before there was any threat from the US.\n\nWhy is the rest of the world so ignorant of simple historic fact?\n----------\nUh, what evidence? You somehow have detailed knowledge of the NKorean nuclear program? Perhaps it slowed until Clinton gave them 2 nuclear reactors.

Well, North Korea or Iran are the ones that have announced that they have nukes. Unless something flares up between Pakistan and India, I think North Korea or Iran will fire first. Of course, to quote something I read in the newspaper, whoever launches will be turned into a "skating rink" (nuclear blasts turn dirt/sand into glass).

Anything 'can' happen, but what is the probability that it will happen? Consider this scenario, Iran developes an operational nuke in 2012 and decides to lob it at Tel Aviv.  The US and what's remaining of the Israels airforce would strike at Iran with conventional, and possibly nuclear weapons.  Will N. Koren, China and Russia come to Iran's defence or will they take the opportunity to attack S. Korea and takeover Taiwan, while the US attentions are elsewhere.   \n\nOr what happens if the US or Israel uses a nuke at the hardened facility at Natanz in 2007, or before 2012?  Russia and China still ascribe to the M.A.D. doctrine, but the rogue state of N.Korea does not.  Therefore, the probability of a nuclear showdown is greater with them.  Depending on their actions, the iranian fiasco could escalate into a global confrontation.

A nuclear power station in Iran is not bad. However the 'fuel' (enriched uranium or plutonium) can be used for composing an atomic bomb. The politicians are afraid for that. So do I.

it is a threat to internional security for ANY ONE to have nukes .\niran ,the usa ,any one that has them is a threat to the world

The Us has the largest stockpile of active nuclear material thus it is still the most dangerous nation there is, liable to use their nuclear arsenal if they deem it is rightious enough for their cause such as they had contemplated during the attack on Iraq. As for the world many countried now own nuclear arsenal such as France, Isreal, China, Russia, India, Pakistan and other countried deem to be developing nuclear capabilities such as North Korea and Iran.

Unlike North Korea (who seems to use their nuclear sabre-rattling every decade or so to extort financial aid from the UN) I am convinced that a nuclear-armed Iran would most certainly detonate a payload somewhere. A move against Israel is very believeable. Iran has shown an attitude of support for islamo-fascist terrorism also. It is not inconceivable for an Iranian produced nuke to end up in a suitcase in say, Times Square.\n\nIf you are a rational citizen of the world and you are not concerned about this issue, you are either very dumb or asleep.

Look the thing that binds nuclear disarmament internationally is the Non-proliferation Treaty.  It's an agreement that allows for countries (even Iran) to engage in peaceful nuclear research for the purposes of nuclear power among other things.  It is also widely violated by Israel and by India (which was basically told in an agreement with the US that it could build as many nukes as it wanted).  \n\nNow, I'll give you the no country has the right to a nuke, but then the question goes to any nation seeking the bomb, "By what right can the US decide that India can build nukes but we cannot?"  And I'm not necessarily talking about Iran here.  Pakistan is pissed that India gets access to US nuclear technology but IT DOESN'T.  \n\nAnother problem is that once a country gets the bomb, like say North Korea, the US stops its Sabre rattling.  Iraq had to be invaded because Saddam could have been working on the bomb say the talking heads.  Well North Korea (hardly an improvement IMHO) did get the bomb and what happened?  Talks.  That sends a strong message to many a regime unfriendly to the US I think.  \n\nAs for if China adds another nuke, well, you really don't understand much about China's nuclear program.  They don't really have many nukes and have no real second strike capability, but if they were to turn their burgeoning economy and pour it into their nuclear inventory, and developed a second strike capability, they would be a much more serious threat to the US.

More of a threat to the world than at any other time. It is not just a few small bands of nutjobs, but there are state sponsors, like Iran and Syria. Then there are the proliferators of WMD and delivery technology, like the North Koreans with their missiles, like the Pakistani nuclear scientist, like the Iranians will be. The ties between these states and terrorists - like Iran's sponsorship of Hezbollah - means that eventually, they will get WMD.\n\nAnd all it takes is one incident, and the genie is out of the bottle.\n\nAnd retreating from Iraq is going to make that threat even worse.

It should not be allowed nuclear capabilities, and we should all endever to prevent this occurance, because it is not within the intrests of the Western world. I recognise the arguement that Iran is as unstable or backward as the Western press portray it to be, however a neuclear Iranian would enable it to dictate policy in the region to a much larger degree, look at North Korea for example. The West needs a weaker Iran to exploit its natural resources, we should not be apologetic about this fact, we should however be careful how we go about it. As previous events have shown, badly planned interferance is far worse than isolationism.

I think no country should do this.But as long as there are several countries who are allowed to use nuclear energy,Iran has also every right to.

Absolutely nothing, and Iran Knows that they can't do much , they can harm us more then we can harm them.

If they do have nuclear weapons the answer is North Korea. They seem the most willing to use them.
