Two weekends ago, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said: "Are they trying to develop a nuclear weapon? No. But we know that they're trying to develop a nuclear capability and that's what concerns us and our red line to Iran is: Do not develop a nuclear weapon."
And it's not just the US assessment. Israel's liberal newspaper Haaretz reported yesterday that "Iran has not yet decided whether to make a nuclear bomb, according to the intelligence assessment Israeli officials will present later this week to [visiting] Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff." Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak poured cold water on speculation that his country is planning a unilateral attack against Iran. "This entire thing is very far off. I don’t want to provide estimates [but] it’s certainly not urgent,"
Almost from the moment the first atomic bomb was detonated in New Mexico in July 1945, the menacing aura of the nuclear age has inspired hopes for a world free of nuclear weapons. But since the end of the Cold War, the focus of concern has shifted from the vast arsenals of the United States and China to worries about terrorism and the rise of new nuclear states like North Korea, which detonated a nuclear device in 2006. And also in our days IRAN is producing nuclear weapons to protect itself from its oponents. If US will continue to increase the pressure toward IRAN it might be the reason of Third World WAR.
Exactly YES it can fuel a third world WAR. Use of nuclear weapons is immoral and highly dangerous. When a nuclear experiment is conducted its after effects remain active till many years. More the number of nuclear weapons made, more are the risks it poses to human life. Maintaining a nuclear bomb is pretty expensive, it takes a large share of the country's defense budget. Countries are more likely to have a civil war in which they can use nuclear bombs against each other and the nuclear radiation could prove disastrous to the entire globe. Possession of nuclear weapons doesn't mean that the country is a developed economy, countries like Germany, Spain and Australia don't have any nuclear weapons, but are still popular and advanced as the US and UK.
