The accord permits the siting of a tracking radar station on Czech soil as part of an extended U.S. missile shield that Washington says is necessary to ward off potential attacks by so-called “rogue” states such as Iran.

If Iran is allowed, yes, allowed, to develop nuclear technology, they WILL build nuclear weapons at some point down the line. This particular point possess a "Duh!" factor that is off the charts. That Iran doesn't have the technology to do so now makes sense. That the IAEA…
