You do note that you and I say it's the people -- which was my point -- and not the tools? We can agree on that much.
I disagree that US Soldiers being occupied (as opposed to "tied down") in Afghanistan and Iraq is likely to greatly increase the likelihood of Iraq getting "the bomb." If it has any effect at all, it is more likely to deter them. Give it some thought.
Nor, for that matter, do I think that even if Iran had a nuclear capability that the strategic implications would be major -- acknowledging that you and I would probably differ on what constitutes 'major.'
