Bush says nuclear Iran would be 'unforgivable'
Source: AFP

JERUSALEM (AFP) - US President George W. Bush warned on Thursday that allowing Iran to obtain a atomic bomb would be "an unforgivable betrayal" as he made his second visit to Israel in five months.

"Permitting the world's leading sponsor of terror to possess the world's deadliest weapon would be an unforgivable betrayal of future generations," Bush said in remarks prepared for delivery to the Israeli parliament.

"America stands with you in breaking up terrorist networks and denying the extremists sanctuary. And America stands with you in firmly opposing Iran's nuclear weapons ambitions," he said.

Washington has spearheaded efforts at the United Nations to rein in Iran's ambitions to master the nuclear fuel cycle, accusing Tehran of seeking to build atomic weapons.

3. Now you know that's not true
He had to have said a nukuoolar Iran would be 'unforgivable.' This is Bush, after all.

God, what will this country do with a president who can actually speak English! lol

7. And it would be his fault
A direct result of Bush policies toward Iraq and North Korea, lessons which Iran took to heart.

North Korea has nukes - not invaded

Iraq has no nukes - invaded.

8. "the world's leading sponsor of terror"
If the primary criterion by which an entity is judged as the leading sponsor of terror, is the number people killed by that entity, then surely the U.S. government must bear that label, not Iran.

How bizarre that so many Americans cannot see something so obvious.
