Of course, you will go with CBS, it meets your needs, despite the lack of...well, facts. It "puttered out" because it was "par for the course." It would be like him saying "water is wet." How long do you think that story would carry on? Basic reading skills, and this includes dismissing your continued logical fallacies, doesn't dismiss the real fact that he said it, but no one really cares because he has said similar things over and over; this time, it just wasn't the "show" many hoped he would provide.

^^^ OK this one threw me for loop. I am not sure I understood you correctly here(maybe it just needs more articulation) but I beg to differ. The genocide of Israel, or any country, would matter to the entire world. Any degree of unprovoked attack by any country, on any other, would matter to the world. I am not sure if you think Israel does not have many allies or something, and maybe they don't have many close allies, but that doesn't mean the world would stand by and watch them be inexcusably attacked. The same goes for Iran. I don't know what kind of world you think this is. Of course that doesn't mean either country is completely safe from attack, and that is why these discussions matter.

**Giggle** Ok, if YOU say so! Maybe you can get CBS to back it up!

"And the NPT is to protect against weaponization, not a nuclear program altogether."

And yet I, nor anyone else in this thread (or the other) claimed anything such thing. This is what is known as a strawman logical fallacy.
