Or are you suggesting that the rules only apply when we don't like the country in question?

Eric, You make a VERY good point. I do believe Israel has nukes but am not sure. The rational answer to your question is, the rules should apply to every country in question.
Unfortunately though, we don't live in a rational world and not all countries are created equal. I wish I had a good argument for why it's ok for Israel and not ok for Iran but I don't. I only have a knee jerk reaction. That knee jerk reaction and my gut tell me, Iran having nukes is going to be a big, big problem. I am not worried though about Israel having them. Israel is not denying the holocaust and trying to push people into the sea.
