Obama's world-without-nuclear-weapons dream

Because the United States is the only nation to use nuclear weapons in war, Barack Obama says we have "a moral responsibility" to lead the world into a nuclear weapons-free future.

As for that moral responsibility, apparently Obama's "Rosie the Riveter" grandmother never told Obama that Japan attacked us first, and that the dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki not only ended World War II, but it can be argued that more people would have died had the war continued.

A nuclear weapons-free zone world like a worthy goal, but will Iran play along?

Probably not. After the president sent a Nowruz holiday message last month, the mullahs were not moved.

Remember that the president of Iran has called for "wiping Israel off the map."

The Iranian government should have the moral responsibility to end its nuke program.

Assuming it has morals, that is.

Unfortunately morals is about destroying someone who you have decided is your enemy.
