I do believe the stone age is where the Mullahs want them to be, so no nuking necessary if that is the objective. Rather than nuking the whole populace, though, why not just concentrate on the nuclear sites? Not all Iranians support these crazed nazis, after all.
One thing I might point out as far as the United Nations is concerned, is that if you are to invest in this organization such authority that you would go nuke over failure to uphold a resolution, you should be consistant about it. I don't think you really feel that way, since I doubt you view the United Nations as arbiter of all that is just and fair in this world. Let's not forget that this is the same organization that acts as a mouthpiece for genocidal racists intent upon persecuting the state of Israel, and so I don't think it is especially wise to pick and choose when you will and when you won't support their various declarations. Iran is certainly a threat to the world, but I sure wouldn't judge that threat based upon the United Nations.
The United Nations is currently headed by a do-nothing named Koffi Anan. Koffi Anan has said some things in recent weeks that are quite alarming. The worst of these was when he stated, in a live press conference, that the disarmerment of Hezbelloh should be voluntary rather than manditory.
Essentially, Anan's lack of judgement gave the radicals further license to refuse being disarmed. In doing so, he furthered the cause of terrorism.
Now we have Iran reacting to Anan's lack of judgement by questioning the authority of the UN as a whole. Anan as much as encouraged this attitude from Iran and now the world is left to pay the price for it. Iran will never be willing to accept the authority of the U.N., until the U.N. starts showing some balls. If the U.N. had openly told Hezbollah "You must surrender you arms", Iran would not be challenging them. However, since Koffi Anan choose to show his usual lack of balls, Iran is taking a hardline stance.
As a result of Iran's continued defiance of international law, the nuclear non-proliferation treaty it is clear that they have no regard for either. Moreover, Iran's outright refusal to allow inspectors into their nuclear sites is an ABSOLUTE sign of guilt on the part of Iran.
All that being said;
Iran must be stopped by any means necessary,
BEFORE they develop a nuclear or atomic weapon of ANY kind.
If Iran will not stop on their own, then we must stop them ourselves. This may well mean that people are going to get killed and that cities like Tehran are going to be seriously damaged. If that happens, it will be unfortunate, and I will be the first to express my sorrow for the suffering thrust the Iranian popluace by the actions of their out of control islam-o-nazi government.
If by hitting Tehran, we are able to kill those responsible (the mullahs, the ayetolietbowl, and president ahaminjad), then we will be assured that Iran will not go back to manfacturing nuclear arms as soon as their cities are rebuilt.
That's really all there is to it.
