Strengthening relations?

   Is the United States realistically making their relations any stronger with Iran? This question seems to daunt me as I ponder on the comments John Kerry has been making the entire week. Not only am I the only one who is confused, but so is the Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu. He believes this is a mistake that will haunt the world forever just like the 2005 deal with North Korea did. 

   Personally, I stand neutral on this conflict. Both sides have valid points that should be taken into consideration by one another. Israel must realize that the White House is not trying to make decisions that will harm Israel, but help them be more secure from their enemies. The United States will monitor the enrichment of Uranium in the country instead of being oblivious to the fact the Iran is making nuclear weapons. 

   The threat of nuclear weapons is scary, but why use something that will ultimately end our planet if these bombs are ignited? It seems pointless to wipe out humanity all for what? To get a point across? Seems like ignorance to me. This new arms race mimics a larger Cold War between the world now. Who can build the most nuclear bombs is the most important subject on presidents agendas. Producing weapons of mass destruction does not strengthen bonds between countries, but diminishes them by adding unneeded tension. Sadly, war will continue until there is an unflawed system of trading through the planet.
