Nukes a’ Hazard

So that’s what all the Iranian Nuclear Weapons hype was about!
After weeks of reports on the Iranian nuclear threat I was beginning to think that Bush and Blair had ambitions to enlarge the Middle Eastern conflict to include Iran. It seemed a tad foolhardy what with their current venture being a bit of a shambles.
But then the news hit the headlines that the UK Trident submarine fleet and its weapons of mass destruction might need to be replaced with nice new nukes because of Iran’s decision to continue with it’s nuclear research and development.
How very convenient that we have a new bogeyman when our old weaponery is up for renewal. The West’s WMD hypocracy is breathtaking!
Oh they say that “no decision has yet been made on replacing Trident.” Based on previous ‘no decisions,’ that’s as good as a deal done.
