Why? Based on what?
IAEA reports coupled with Iran's continual refusal to abide by the treaty. Secondly Iran suspended its nuclear weapons
program back in 2003 according to numerous intelligence sources, including the US.
Suspended is the key word here..
FAS - Nuclear Weapons - Iran
Recent Developments:
Implementation of the NPT Safeguards Agreement and relevant provisions of Security Council Resolutions 1737 (2006), 1747 (2007), 1803 (2008) and 1835
(2008) in the Islamic Republic of Iran, Report of the International Atomic Energy Agency, February 19, 2009.
There are ongoing investigations by the IAEA concerning Iran's compliance with the NPT. At the end of August 2003, the IAEA stated in a confidential
report leaked to the media that trace elements of Highly Enriched Uranium (HEU) were found in an Iranian nuclear facility. In June of 2003, an IAEA
Director General report stated that Iran had not met the obligations required of it by the NPT. A November 2003 report identified further violations.
In February 2004 it was discovered that Iran had blueprints for an advanced centrifuge design usable for uranium enrichment that it had withheld from
nuclear inspectors. In December 2003, Iran signed an additional protocol authorizing IAEA inspectors to make intrusive, snap inspections of Iran's
nuclear facilities. The protocol was signed as an addition to the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty. Remaining uncertainties surrounding Iran's uranium
enrichment activities were addressed in the IAEA's November 2004 report. IAEA Deputy Director for Safeguards, Pierre Goldschmidt, reported in June
2005 that Iran had admitted to separating out small amounts of plutonium as recently as 1998.
Despite suspending its enrichment and conversion programs in 2003, Iran resumed uranium conversion in 2005 and enrichment in 2006. In 2009,
it was revealed that Iran had secretly constructed a second enrichment facility within a Revolutionary Guards military base twenty miles from the city
of Qum. The enrichment facility near Qum is smaller than the Natanz enrichment facility. The smaller size of the Qum enrichment facility
combined with its location within a military base suggests to some that this second enrichment plant is not for enriching uranium required for
generating civil nuclear power. Iran maintains that the facility is necessary for enriching uranium for its research reactor and it was built due to
worries that the Natanz facility is vulnerable to attack. One study notes that the Qum enrichment facility is potentially too small to be an effective
enrichment plant for weapons grade material. In the study’s conclusion, the authors note that the Qum enrichment facility is “neither ideal for
commercial nor military purposes.”

What did you say is the reason why are we supporting Al Qaeda in Lybia and Syria? 
Because Al Queida are cowards who hide behind
civilian clothes making it difficult to know who is what.

Based on what? You seriously think that a nuclear weapon detonated over Iran and taking the country back to the stone age is humane?
Its more
humane than removing a nation off the face of the Earth. Also if you researched Irans position towards Israel you would see the word game Iran plays
when it comes to the destruction of Israel.
They "differentiate" Jewish citizens and the "Zionist regime", stating they have no issues with the jewish people. The problem with that lie is Iran
doesnt not recognize Israel as a country. Syria also refused to recognize Israel.
Since their is no "government" to destroy and there is no nation to destroy then who exactly are they going to remove?
They want Israel gone and they have no issues exterminating an entire population to achieve that goal.

There is no such thing as humane warfare!
This is even more true when its applied to the Iranian government, the Syrian government, Hamas,
Hezzbullah etc etc etc. Maybe the people wanting to destroy Israel should stop launching missile attacks at civilians and maybe attack the Israeli
government. I mean after all they claim their issue is with the government of Israel and not her people.
