Why are some countries allowed to have nukes, but Iran can’t?

It’s not like every other country that has them is trustworthy

Hell, let's give everyone a nuke.

That way it's fair and safe.

Every other country that has nukes understands mutually assured destruction, and the vast majority of people don’t view their own demise as a prize to win.

Iranians are dumb.

That’s pretty much it.

Because the countries that do have them don’t trust Iran with one. And why would they? There government has repeatedly said they would commit genocide if given the opportunity.

Another ‘the more nukes the better’ rationalization.

Low IQ arguments abound.

Oh, and Nuke Iran…

Because Hillary, Obama and the C-A couped every Country in the Middle East and said they couldn’t have one.

Because world o er countries realized it’s a bad idea so nobody who doesn’t have em gets em. If Iran gets them than the Saudis get em.

Tradition, mostly

For selfish purposes.

Iran doesn’t fear retaliation if they attack Israel or the United States because a final global struggle against an evil enemy will present them with the privileges of martyrdom as taught in Islam, Lewis wrote. Death is not a deterrent.

It might be because they openly support terrorists and have been chanting death to America and death to Israel for 40+ years. Maybe it might have something to do with their stated goal of “wiping Israel off the map”.

But hey…. That’s just me. You do you hoss.

Iran has already expressed the intent to use nukes to destroy other countries.

Probably, I'd guess, but just an assumption, the ole
"Death to America" chant may have just a tiny bit to do with it.

If Iran had a Nuke on Sunday it would explode on our soil by Friday

You really can’t come up with one possible reason on that, even if you disagree with it? You can’t envision any problematic scenarios with certain countries having nuclear weapons? How about Somalia? Do you see any issues with Somalia having a nuclear arsenal? What about Yemen? How about Afghanistan? None of that gives you any pause? Iran falls into that particular group.
