Iran may be one of them.

7. You should check that number

There maybe 50 countries that want them but there are only 7 legal nations and 4 confirmed. The 7 are the biggies you hear about. The four include Iran, North Korea, Israel and one other I can't think of right now... There are also about 7 countries that have had them... The biggest thing about Iran is that they have a platform that could reach some of our intrests...

5. Well we know they don't have them yet.

And there aren't any credible intelligence reports that say they are making them at this time. I'm not inclined to believe BushCo/PNAC about anything so I voted No.

9. I'm not a believer

To say I believe something requires certainty.

To be certain about something like Iranian nukes, I would need better information than is currently available on the subject.

I doubt Iran currently has nukes; I think they're probably trying to acquire nukes (because I would if I were them); but I wouldn't bet one way or the other at this point as to whether they'll actually get nukes -- or get nuked.

I voted NO in the poll, but I wouldn't have voted at all if it was worded "do you believe that Iran doesn't ..."
