Good news: Arab League announces it will pursue nuclear “energy”

Political instability, gangster governments, religious fanatics, murderous anti-semitism, and coming soon — uranium a go-go. Now that’s a spicy meatball.
And why not? The UN’s not going to stop them. And it’s not like there are any alternative energy sources in that part of the world.
A majority of Americans and, if you can believe it, the French support military action as a last resort to prevent Iran from getting the bomb. Germans are worried about what Iran might do too — to the prestige of the UN, not to Israel, Europe, or the United States. Faced with a choice of disarming the mullahs by force or doing nothing, Deutschland says let ‘em go nuclear.
Man, when Germany takes a position on war, they really go whole hog with it, don’t they?
Update: Actually, never mind the Europeans. Here’s the graph from the survey to focus on.

Well, Pakistan hasn’t nuked anybody yet, but muzzies with nukes is still pretty scary. Imagine every nation in the arab league having nukes. All it would take is one “regime change” by the islamonazis and we’re taking out their weapons. Why do oil rich countries need nuclear energy???

This is insane. What possible reason do we have not to stop nuclear proliferation in the Middle East now? Load up dem B-2’s boys.

Well, I can’t say I’m surprised, I’ve been expecting , dreading this for a couple of years now.
As Barney Fife liked to say: “We gotta nip it.; Nip it in the bud.”

Here are the actual survey result documents.
Could you please point me to the relevant portion of the key findings that supports the above claim? I could not find it.

Hey, more good news (from Drudge)! Iran’s pres. Amadjihad is going to travel to NYC to address the UN!

Where is the ’support for bombing entrances to all nuclear facilities since diplomacy has already failed’ option? I’d check that one.

“If diplomacy fails” 59% of Democrats are with Deutschland? What are they thinking? Or are they thinking at all?
They’re either on steroids or neutered – not a nation known for nuance or balance…

What could possibly go wrong? It would only be like giving my wife’s chihuahua crack to smoke.

Niko, to your question, in AP’s write-up, at the top, click on the link within this statement “Deutschland says let ‘em go nuclear” –that’s where the results about Deutschland/Germany are.
Entelechy on September 6, 2006 at 11:16 PM
Entelechy, no, I’ve browsed the whole document, there is no finding that boils down to, “Faced with a choice of disarming the mullahs by force or doing nothing, Deutschland says let ‘em go nuclear.”
It seems NewsMax.com simply made it up.
To borrow from a recent subline, “Did Allahpundit blow it?”

That’s pretty typical of Americans these days: oppose a situation, but oppose the solution as well. Something about damned if you do and damned if you don’t.
