If Iran has all the oil and gas reserves and so much money and pipeline and export money.

Why do they need nuklear power.

How about some wind technologies.

I would have to guess, that they need something to rely upon, whilst developing more efficient means of achieving clean energy. I wouldn't say they won't develop something other than nuclear power, but it might just not yet be in their cards - as it is, we have gone through fossil fuels, nuclear energy, and now ever sooooo sloooowly developing our own tech for clean energy, but you don't see us slowing down with our nuke plants, or refineries.

I would also think that if the Iranians had the choice of getting off the oil/gas bandwagon, and then selling off all or most of their reserves, would probably be a pretty cool thought to Iran if they could pull it off, wouldn't you?

Iran has the right to Nuclear power.

On the topic of Nuclear Weapons -

Several countries have Nuclear weapons, as you are no doubt aware, including some of Iran's most vocal opponents, the U.S.A., not to mention various other NATO countries. That's not all though, there are even some countries in their own neighborhood, Israel, India, Pakistan. Some during or after the signing of the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear weapons treaty (namely the latter three). Israel does not out right admit they have them, but it is a pretty widely suspected that they do, one believer in this in non other than the American government.

Why can Iran not have them, when so many other countries, including their neighbors, and their enemies have them? OH RIGHT, that's what we like to call "DOUBLE STANDARDS."

You want ISREAL wiped off the map

I think you missed the part of history/the thread, where it was deduced that this was nothing more than the West twisting words said by others, into a meaning of their own very biased interpretation.

well we shall all be wiped off the map someday as we are the poison that is inhabiting and destroying this earth buy our drilling deep into the earth crust and sucking all the oil out.

Well how about all the water that is contaminated and all the poision we spew on the earth.

Doesn't matter as when it happens it happens.

Well, here you and I can agree. However, I think anybody in their own sane mind, realizes that Iran has nothing specifically to do with that problem, it's more so the blame of.. Religious extremists/bigots both foreign and domestic.
