Rethinking the Unthinkable
Apropos of David E. Sanger's article in the March 14, 2010 New York Times, what is unthinkable about the Iran’s childish insistence on building its own nuclear weapons arsenal is the tolerance of the country’s commercial and intellectual elite for the governing regime’s risky behavior. The mullahs will put Iran’s people, infrastructure and means of production at risk of retaliatory attack by neighboring and world powers in order to dignify its well-deserved image as a force to be reckoned with. Only one terrorist radiation explosion will justify an atomic detonation that will damage Iran’s welfare extremely.
It is inconsistent for Iran’s foremost citizens to believe that the nation should have influence on the affairs of its geographic region when they refrain from influencing the governance of their own state. By abdicating power to a religious movement, Iran’s modern and educated lay people have put themselves in danger of annihilation if they do not join their contemporaries in exile overseas.
