Why can't Iran have Nuclear energy, if most of the West and Israel has Nuclear energy and Weapons?

Question

Serious answers only. Keep in mind that the NPT allows for the enrichment of uranium as long as its for energy.

Ah...what exactly is a terrorist nation? The US at the behest of Israel refuses to allow a vote to come to the floor defining terrorism. I wonder why. Why can't the international community define terrorism? Could it be because some would be found guilty that we don't want to be seen in that light?

Good Job Goldman...this statement is directed to conservative and Larry....

Answer 1

Exactly. Israel has had nuclear weapons for a long time and nobody cared bout that country. Israel has been in war for a long time and it's very dangerous to the Middle East.
It's not American government, it's Jewish lobbyists in the government want to attack Iran.

Answer 2

Everyday, school aged boys in Iran chant death to america, death to israel like 200 times. Iran sponsors terrorism in the middle east and needs a serious overhaul in government. No more Ayotollahs, the ones who are really in charge of that dictatorship. It may appear to be a democracy, but it's just another smoke screen so they can do whatever the heck they want. Irresponsible leaders with a hatred that runs so deep for another group of people have no business with nuclear weapons.

Answer 3

The west and Israel can have nuclear weapons because we are not terrorist nations. Iran makes continuous threats about wiping Israel off the map and denying the Holocaust happened. Iran is a terrorist nation.

Answer 4

I have mixed thoughts on this issue, I think Iran should obtain nuclear energy I see nothing wrong with it, however they should be monitored incase they were to make Nuclear Weapons without notice. Every country has the right to have energy, Technology shouldn't be limited to just the United States.

Answer 5

Of course they can on that basis. But, we have a major 'interest' in the middle east so we do not want them to.
