Depends on whether you watch Fox News. Israel has 120 nukes, had them for over 30 yrs so is that a problem to you? US, of course the only country insane enough to test them on actual people. If you learn about security threats you would know that competitors are simply out doing each other. India / Pakistan, US / Russia, etc. The real question is whether a country is legitimatly able to develop Nuclear power, as an energy supply, without paranoid lunatics assuming, as in iraq, that they are actually up to no good.

If Iran wasn't up to no good they would accept the UKs deal to have nuclear power plants not only for free... but actually getting paid to have them.

Israel hasn't ever threatened to wipe a nation off the earth by any means neccesairy either. Nukes are a problem. You can't just take them from the countries that have them though because they have... well nukes.

Citation, evidence of this free plant offer? Firstly the UK would not be an adequte business partner considering past history between Iran and UK. News previously suggested distrust of Western developed tech hence Russian involvement. Secondly other than rhetoric, a technique famously demonstrated through Bush speeches, what are they actually doing? Considering Iraq, are people willing to believe anything coming from the media or western gov. sources any more.

Thirdly, sanctions work though dieing of hunger, loosing jobs and the in ability to actually motivate change are the problem here.

The gains would be far greater then the mere cost of the nuclear plant.
