I completely agree. when examples of killing or desecration or threats of "fury" are posted and treated like its ok for all this to happen as long as it is Not from the US, I do not like it. Your prohibition should be global and universal, not just toward the United States or its Allies.

you tend to blame the US for violence in the world. I blame people. So a message from Iran threatening muslim fury should be treated just the same as the threat of war somwhere else

Kimball said Bush appears to be veering from long-standing U.S. policy, created in the context of the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, that the United States would not use nuclear weapons against a non-nuclear nation unless that nation waged war against America in alliance with a nuclear state.
"This is a dangerous and ill-timed shift," Kimball said.
"It highlights the reality of the Bush administration's 'do as I say, not as I do' attitude toward weapons of mass destruction," Kimball said.
"Here we are in a just and responsible exercise trying to rid Iraq of nuclear weapons (development) but at the same time we are indirectly threatening the possible use of nuclear weapons," he added.
