Do you understand the theory of preemption?
You don't ever need to preempt nations that won't attack you. You'll only ever need to preempt nations that
will attack you--and Iran is certainly willing to attack the U.S.
Imagine that you're in a room filled with people. A group in the corner starts shouting for people to kill you. Then they start asking around about getting some guns. "No need to get excited", you say, "They probably just want to use the weapons legitimately, for hunting. No reason to suspect anything of them just because they hate me."
Guess what happens next?
