[QUOTE="tieguy, post: 73279, member: 1912"] [COLOR=red]Ah yes . Keep your enemies close and your friends even closer. Negotiations over nuclear proliferation do not legitimize that leadership. In fact our diplomacy in such a case will involve asking them to stop while occasionally flexing the old biceps or sharpening up the old bowie knife. The subtle message delivered under the guise of diplomacy will encourage their considering the survival of Iranians over the need for nuclear weapons.
