PRESIDENT Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has sought to justify his confidence the US will not attack Iran, saying the proof comes from his mathematical skills as an engineer and faith in God, the press reported today.
"They do not dare wage war against us and I base this on a double proof."
"I draw up tables. For hours, I write out different hypotheses. I reject, I reason. I reason with planning and I make a conclusion. They cannot make problems for Iran."
He holds a PhD on transport engineering and planning from Tehran's Science and Technology University

If people have learned anything over the last few years is that the US wont sell it's national security to other countries. Given what we plan to do, air strikes and not an invasion or prolonged war, we can go at it solo.

I don't see why one has to wait until Iran builds a nuclear weapon, mass produces it, increase yield, progresses in miniaturization and develops ICBM's in order to strike them...

Umm... great strategy, nuclear suicide, no thanks. Iran cannot strike the CONUS with anything conventional, let alone non existent nuclear weapons. Nor does Iran have any delivery platforms to carry a first generation (see large) nuclear device. In any case Iran is not in a good position. Either way their military, economical and industrial capability will be devastated, who knows if we wont target their leadership as well...
