WE DESTROYED A COUNTRY TO SAVE IT

Would the United States of America ever use nuclear weapons to stop another country from developing their own nuclear weapons?
Don't put it past George W. Bush or Ariel Sharon.
In July 2003 Prime Minister Sharon showed Bush photos and other intelligence on Iran’s nuclear weapons program.
Israel’s interests are our interests, and vice versa.
Some even allege that Israel is pulling the strings.
General Brent Scowcroft, national security adviser to George H. W. Bush, said that Sharon has George W. Bush “wrapped around his little finger.” (It is actually a pretty big, little finger.)
The most far-out theories are that Israel wanted (or took part in 9-11) and was also a very influential factor for the pre-emptive attack on Iraq.
Let us hope that another pre-emptive war does not lurk behind the furtive smiles of Cheney, Bush, Rice and Rumsfeld.
But rumors have indicated that Cheney’s office has made contingency plans for a large-scale attack on Iran if there is another terrorist attack on the United States.
The contingency plans indicate that tactical nuclear weapons would be used to destroy hardened underground nuclear facilities.
It would be a very dangerous action.
What would Russia and China then do?

[Note: The NIE or National Intelligence Estimate has concluded that Iran will not have enough highly enriched uranium to produce a nuclear weapon until 2010-15.]
