If it is true, we should declare war on them immediately.

I thought the US had been fighting Iranian backed insurgents in Iraq all these years? We are and already have been at war with Iran.

Because macho chest-thumping does not, in general, serve the interests of the American people.

We arn't attacking them first because we want to give them a chance to develope nukes. Haven't you read Revelation man? Geesh.

Maybe they are waiting for it to be operational and then blow it up. That way they can say they did not use WMD's and at the same time "nuke" them.

I think you'd have to be pretty naive to believe the Iranians don't want nuclear weapons. But for the sake of the Iranians I hope they do get them, at least it will be a deterrent for a U.S. invasion.

What about Israel? Should they get some as well?

They've had them for quite some time now. And perhaps it has contributed to countries like Egypt and Jordan pursuing more peaceful relations with Israel.

I did not think that Israel admits to having any. What are your sources?
