In reply to the discussion: Nuclear watchdog agency says Iran not cooperating [View all]JDPriestly
(57,936 posts)I would really like to know. What is our stance with Iran?
Just what we are asking other than non-proliferation and UN visits to sites where nuclear weapons may be being tested is unclear to me.
I often see that we assume that Israel has nuclear weapons. What is the evidence for that other than the fact that some of the developers of nuclear weapons supported Israel?
I doubt that Israel has its own uranium. If it were buying uranium on the international market, we would probably know who much it is buying and what weapons, what capacity it has.
I think the issue is non-proliferation, trying to prevent additional countries from obtaining nuclear weapons. We are not asking countries that have long had the weapons, like Pakistan or India, the USSR or the US, to abolish them. One step at a time.
Do you know any specifics or just have general information? I'd like the specifics on this if you have them. Thanks.
