Power yes! Weapons no! Nuclear Power under U.N. inspections! If someone threatened to shoot you would you hand him or her a gun! Me thinks not!

Iran saying that they are enriching uranium for power generation. Security council should closely monitor the pace in which they are enriching. I dont think Iran has much power demand.\n\nyes its ok if the are using nuclear power for peaceful means & for their nations security. Because every nation has the right to protect themself.

We all know that if they have the nuclear tech the bomb will be used to destroy many people....if they are really concerned  about energy (especially electrical) solar energy will be great for that part of the world...I am sure the U.S.A will help in this project.

There is oil in Iraq and the US wanted it.

No they shouldn't.\n\nIf they can't be fair to IRAN about nuclear technology, than that makes them hypocrites.

This is all very convenient and farcical. You have the most belligerent nation on the planet, the only one that has used nukes in the past, the one that has the capability to destroy the world many times over, behaving like an empire telling nations what they should or should not do.\nThe assumption that other nations who may want nuclear weapons are "crazy" serves as the rationale for not allowing them to have them.\nIf you paint your adversary like a nut job bent on destroying Israel then everything you do or say will be justified.\nI don't particularly like Iran, a theocratic dictatorship, but one must remember that the primary goal of any dictatorship is to stay in power. Iran knows very well that if they would use nukes on anyone, let alone Israel, they would be wiped off the map.\nThe same reasoning was valid for Saddam's Iraq.\nThe last thing a fledgling dictator like him could have wanted was to create a case for being removed. That's why the alarm by the US govt that Iraq was a threat are ludicrous.\nBut people get easily drunk on propaganda.

I think that nuclear energy source is a viable energy source as long as we do everything we can to make it as safe as possible.  If we do nothing to find new energy sources our economy and our way of life can deteriorate.

I think it's up to them as long as they did not threaten anybody. Especially a country which has nuclear energy does not have the right to stop another country from having it.

Oh yeah, Iraq is working out so well.  Iran, with a laregr populice that actually supports its government, would work out even better.\n\n(Incidentally, I think the idea of trying to convince Iran that it doesn't need nuclear weapons by threatening to drop nuclear weapons on it, as the Bush administration floated over the weekend, is brilliant psychology.)

Bombing is pointless they built there facilities with our bombs in mind. Thus any attack would be worthless as the facilities are way underground and well armored. Invasion as Iraq proved is quite out of the question. The best response is to let them have there toys and let them know that they have now made themselves targets for our nuclear arsenal. This kind of deterrence has worked to keep nuclear powers in line before and will again. No matter if the govt is full of religious or political fanatics in the end they are human and don't want to die if it can be avoided.

Nuclear power generation can be safe, but what to do with the waste? Overall I don't think it's a good option.

First thought would be about the nuclear power thingy.

I think a country floating on oil does not need to spend millions on nuclear power.\n\nI think the last countries that need to enrich uranium are countries with suicide bombers.\n\nI think things are getting out of control, seriously.

If things continue getting better, then I don't think that Baghdad will become the next Hiroshima. Also, if we were to use nuclear weapons, we would be breaking the agreement that no country is to use nuclear power. Also if we were to use it, then I think that it would give North Korea a right to use their, and I don't think that we want North Korea using a missile that can reach the USA. To tell the truth, no one has a clue as to what George Bush will do under pressure.

more than likely.if they do they should nuke and nerve gas them till they glow.these people dont want nuclear power for energy.they want to make dirty weapons,and with the rumour of russian missile technology already in the country,it would just be a matter of time before they strike at israel or cities in europe or anywhere else for that matter.the west needs to learn that diplomacy does not work these people.
