    What? You want to saddle our kids with dealing with possibly the most radical Islamic state armed with nukes? You aren't concerned? Have you studied just a little about how this particular brand of muslims think "evangelism" aka jihad should play out?

    Convert, accept second class status, or die isn't really the words I want to here from someone armed with nuclear weapons.

    Further, even more scary than the Iranian leader publicly questioning the Holocaust is the fact that the idea was good politics in Iran.

    Iran is sovereign... but so are we. And if you want to stay that way in any real sense, we had better keep them from developing nukes.

    Iran is a nation of about 70 million. Israel has 7 million... counting the non-Jews.

    You feel more threatened by immigrant workers without the right paperwork than you do Islamic fanatics armed with weapons that could destroy the US for all intents and purposes?

    Also, (and this isn't just a knock on you personally) where was all the concern about border security in the 90's? It was just as much of a problem then. Could it be that it only becomes a problem when it is necessary to attempt to make the GOP look bad to Hispanic voters?

    Scott, Even though Israel has only about ten percent of the population that Iran has, they have a much superior military, and they have the backing of the U.S.

    Yes, I am much more concerned about the illegal immigrant problem than I am Iran's possible nuclear ambitions. The border issue affects me daily whereas the Iran problem is years away.

    As with most issues, we will just have to disagree on this matter.
