India may not forget Iran’s opposition during its nuclear test in Pokhran in 1998.

The imperial perimeter is shrinking and inevitably leaving power vacuums to be filled. As that occurs, actors outside the perimeter expand their force. How can we tell?

It seems unfortunate that our diplomatic policies have not worked in helping Iran come to the correct conclusion that nuclear weapons are not good for that region, or the rest of the planet for that matter. If Iran gets nuclear weapons, then the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and half a dozen other countries are going to immediately want nuclear weapons themselves.

After all, Syria is having a civil war, and much of the population is trying to overthrow the Assad government, so that sure sounds a lot different than the world coming down on Iran for building nuclear weapons to give to proxy terrorists, unbalancing the region and powerbase in the Middle East.
