Iran trying to get nukes sounds like a delicate situation. One that a stubborn, know-nothing, 79-year-old shouldn't handle. As for Israel, they need to learn to exist on their own without help from the USA. Every last idiot that has ever donated to AIPAC is a traitor to the USA. The last Hebrew kingdom was conquered over 2,600 years ago and these idiots think they have an exclusive claim to the land that their ancient country used to exist on. So much so that they'll hijack American politics and taxpayer money to make it happen. Don't get me wrong. Many Arabs are awful too. But engaging in ethnic cleansing to fulfill a religious need for a state, mere decades after your own people were nearly wiped out by the Nazis is beyond stupid.

Also, Nuclear power a mistake because it leads to situations such as this. Nuclear waste is never safe, because it has to be stored for hundreds of thousands of years. Someone will eventually dig it up. And one day, some rogue country is going to be able to use the "I'm just developing nuclear power" excuse to make a nuke and start WWIII.

You don't even need to dig it up.... look how many sites the US has for storage that are leaking into the ground/water/sea's.

If you can't even trust the US to do it the right way, you probably shouldn't trust nation more poor than them to store it properly either.

The US is a really low standard when it comes to a lot of things though. Anyone who thinks otherwise has been brainwashed by American exceptionalism.

That said, I wouldn't trust Iran to do it any better either. Then again, Iran already has a nuclear power plant, so they already have to deal with it.
