The reasons I often hear in defense of Iran are: America kills people indiscriminately, America only fights wars for oil, America should mind its own business (as if nuclear threat isn’t our business), Iran has never started a war with any country, Iran should be allowed to have nuclear weapons because America does, Iran is a peaceful nation, Iran would never use a nuke even if they had one, Iran just wants nuclear energy (which is why they’re building reactors underground)

We're spending way too much money being the world's policemen.
If they get nukes AND a delivery system capable of reaching America from Iranian soil, THEN we may want to reconsider, but otherwise, we need to reign back and let folks take care of their own problems.
After all, it's being the World Police that got us in this mess to begin with (Iran hating us)...that, and our reliance on foreign oil.

Iran desires nuclear energy so that they are not stuck with oil, people are buying into the propaganda that they want nuclear wepaons which is not true...
america has nuclear technology so why not the world?
i'm not a fan of nuke technology as it is bad for the environment(spent fuel rods/waste/etc.)
i'm for free energy technology which will soon be released...

American people are really being dis-informed and some people find it hard to accept it.
The Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, commonly known as the Non-Proliferation Treaty or NPT, is a landmark international treaty whose objective is to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons and weapons technology, to promote cooperation in the peaceful uses of nuclear energy and to further the goal of achieving nuclear disarmament and general and complete disarmament

So, is the contention of this thread that those who want Iran to have nukes are peace activists?
This seems to the tone set here.
