Bush and Obama Agree: Nuclear Weapons in Iran are Not Acceptable

by Eric on December 8, 2008

One of the few things Obama and Bush agree on is that Iran should not poses a nuclear weapon. Period.

At the Saban Forum in Washington, Bush made it clear that Iran should not have nuclear weapons.

“We have made our bottom-line clear. For the safety of our people and the peace
of the world, America will not allow Iran to develop a nuclear weapon.”

On Sunday morning on Meet the Press, Obama made the same clear statement against a nuclear Iran.

Well, I’ve said before, I think we need to ratchet up tough but direct diplomacy with Iran, making very clear to them that their development of nuclear weapons would be unacceptable… But we are willing to talk to them directly and give them a clear choice and, and ultimately let them make a determination in terms of whether they want to do this the hard way or, or the easy way.

Both the current President and President elect are clearly not amused with Iran and will take military action if needed. I hope it does not come to that, but in my opinion it is already to late to avoid it.
