Clinton's Dangerous Iran Comments & the Nuclear Issue

Sam Sedaei's take on Clinton's irresponsible comments regarding Iran, including the way we publicly view and deal with the country.

Iran has signed the Non-Proliferation Treaty. Under this treaty, it has the right to enrich uranium for peaceful purposes. So far, that's what Iran has been doing. If Iran's exercise of its rights to enrich uranium is unacceptable to the U.S., why did it sit aside and allow Iran to become an NPT member in the first place? It's like giving someone a driver's license and then protest if she drives, offer to give them a ride instead and complain if she insists on driving herself. The U.S. cannot allow countries to become members of NPT and then oppose their exercise of their rights under the NPT. So then what is the point?
......

But perhaps the most tragic part of all of this is that Israel isn't even a member of NPT. Yes, the United States has allowed one country that isn't a member of NPT to have nuclear weapons and simultaneously wants to stop a NPT member from exercising its legitimate right to enrich uranium, which for all we know is for peaceful purposes. "Hypocrisy" is the word.
......

...The U.S. always selects issues to challenge Iran on which the former can least claim the moral high ground. As demonstrated, the nuclear issue is another example of the U.S. picking an issue on which it has taken the most hypocritical positions.

And much, much more good stuff I can't post here without lifting the whole post.
