Reply #31: I think Iran has wanted nuclear power for some time,

[PRETZEL]

I remember a few years back where the Iranian position was that it is more economically feasable for them to use their oil as a marketable commodity and take those proceeds to develop their nuclear generation capacity. I'm sure it's no doubt that as a side line they would also develop nuclear weapons at the same time and try their level best not to get caught.

But the fact that Iran is planning to go to the euro as their base has to be of great concern to the US. I'm not sure if Iraq was planning the same around the time of the invasion, but that seems to be in the back of my head.

Truthfully, this wouldn't be the first time a country started a war for economic preservation. You can call it anything you want, but it's still the same.
