Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

I find it about as amusing as looking down the barrel of a gun. Fact is, Ahmadinejad's right.

He is right. No one should have the technology. No one should have the capability that nuclear weapons allow. Not just him and his country. If we want fair and balanced talks, we should make the effort to bend as well. We can't play all high and mighty with everyone, every time. How about listening to another countries valid concerns for once?

The technology in question is nuclear power, which is probably the safest and most efficient form of power that exists today. I strongly suspect he's being facetious, since he knows it's outrageous to request the rest of the world to kill their nuclear power plants. This highlights the idea that it's outrageous for us to demand Iran kill theirs.

How to negotiate from a point of fear, fear of a nuclear bomb, fear of a Western Invasion, fear of a Nuclear Proliferation agreement with sanctions, fear of a country that wants no part of Western Influence just provide additional technological resource when asked, fear in mobilizing an army of 160,000 people for war games. Let's see has the press begun to introspectively bring Iran into the front page while Iraq and Afghanistan move further toward the back of the bus, are we actually wondering how we as a Western Nation were placed in the situation we now face, has it been a FEAR FACTOR? A historical comment comes to mind "Bully".

We want democracy. Then why put pressure on Iran to stop the exercise when we even are not ever if they are doing this for the peaceful manner. But nukes of North Korea are quite. Any guesses. or these live but ready just in case USA turns the sides.
