what is your idea about IRAN ?and his peacful nuclear power?

I think a country floating on oil does not need to spend millions on nuclear power.\n\nI think the last countries that need to enrich uranium are countries with suicide bombers.\n\nI think things are getting out of control, seriously.

Who do you mean khomeini, Khameini or Almadjinejad? I'm guessing you mean Ayatolla Khameini and know what you are talking about.\n\nThis is one of Ayatolla Khameini speaches about nuclear power from his site\n\nToday we have two options in front of us. One is to take it easy, not to bother about anything, show no resistance and do not work hard to achieve a thing, as some elements and some journalists, among them certain paid writers, suggest. They are in fact telling the Iranian youth: Donât bother, you cannot resist the big powers of the world, you canât overcome them by resistance and hard work; if you like to have nuclear energy, if you want to have access to scientific facilities, if you desire that the world media, radios, televisions and international press do not conspire against you, if you like to have all this things, then you must submit to American arrogance and the wishes of the world powers!! These people of course form a small minority but unfortunately what they suggest is this: the easy, comfortable way for Iranians is to put up their hands vis-Ã -vis the United States!\nWhat does this really mean? It clearly means that an ancient country like Iran with all its cultural, human and material resources and the climatic, geographical advantages should put everything it has at the disposal of an arrogant, world-devouring, ever greedy power called the United States of America! Yet there is another option: to move forward with our own power and to follow our own aspirations with dignity and independence. We should ask ourselves: what sin did the Iranian people commit?! Only this: they decided to live according to their own identity, culture and national determination, to think for themselves and to work for their ideals according to their own will. \nWhy should Iran be labelled a âdeveloping countryâ? This is a euphemism. The label really means backward and undeveloped. Why? Are the mental, intellectual and scientific talents of the Iranian people less than others? Less than those who happened to be scientifically decades ahead of us? No, certainly not, the mental, intellectual power is there, but why are they ahead of us and what happened that we are now lagging behind them? The blame, in one word, should be laid upon those despotic monarchs who ruled this country for the last two hundred years, those dictatorial dynasties who only cared for their own filthy personal lusts. Why did they oppress the people and suppress their voices? Because they did not want the people to be awake, because they themselves were the lackeys and servants of the powers who were plundering Iran. Surely when the owner of a house is awake, his house cannot be easily burgled. So they wanted a dormant, lazy nation. Reza Shah was appointed and supported by the British and, his son, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, was kept in power by an American-British compromise. For some fifty years they kept the Iranian people in backwardness and we missed some of the best international opportunities for our progress. \n\n\nAs foreinger I dont have too much opinion about Khameni, But in 2005 he made a fatwa against use and stock piling of nuclear weapons. So I don't think Iran will be irresponsible with nuclear power. It just wants to develop technology and living standard improvements for peaful uses. After all you would you trust more with a nuke; A country that always goes to war, and has been the only country to use it before?? or Iran.\n\nI think that there is a big misunderstanding about Iran. Before I visited Iran I didn't how big supporter for human rights was Ayatolla Khomeni!, and all he did for women's education. Khomeni has such a distorted image in the west.\nAnd Almadinejad was voted in because he cared about the poor, those that had been fogotten by the liberal reforms. I think he is basically an honest man, but he is not a politian! He says too many stupid things (a bit like George Bush maybe) And he should lear

The rest of the world is willing to let Iran have nuclear power; that's not the problem.  The problem is that Iran has proven itself to be a rogue nation that produces and harbors terrorists.  The blatant hatred that Iran has for anything Western is reason enough to doubt its motives when it comes to the development of nuclear energy.  As I said, the rest of the world is willing to allow Iran to have nuclear power, provided that it is willing to allow UN inspectors access to verify that Iran's motives and capabilities are peaceful.  Iran is unwilling to allow this. That's why the rest of the world is skeptical of Iran.

If told that some countries had nuclear weapons you would barely even bat an eyelash as you know that the country would use that technology for defence purposes only, such as Canada.  Other countries with this ability would make you sweat blood.  Giving Iran nuke ability is like putting a madman in a crowded shopping mall with a machine gun.\n\nIran is now testing very advanced missiles that have nuke capabilities........you better be bothered.

Nice ideal, but absolutely impossible. If I was an Iranian Leader, I wouldn't even think about it until I saw several American leaders convicted & successfully impeached. He is well aware our leaders speak with forked tongues.\n\nBy the way, what about this alleged nuclear weapons development? Is it any more real than what was in Iraq? It's the same people saying it, folks. Think. They were never found in Iraq because they never existed. You can hide a bomb, or several bombs, where they are difficult to find. Not true for the facilities that make them. Iran has a facility to enrich uranium for power plants.But nothing has been found suggesting bomb grade uranium, or the facilities to make it. And they are under constant inspection. think.

Let me begin by saying that my wife's cousin married an Iranian so I have nothing against anybody on an individual basis.  However, I take issue w/ the Iranian people for electing a rhetoric spewing, inflaming anti-semite for "President".  \n\nFurthermore, I cannot understand how the government of a country rich in petroleum oil would want to develop nuclear energy for "peaceful means" after announcing to the world that Israel should be "wiped off the map"?  This theocratic government w/ absolute power over its people needs to be "wiped off" from rule and its citizens re-educated on how to properly co-exist w/ the rest of the world in harmony.

I think Mr. Ahmadinejad is 100% correct in his assessment of Mr. Bush and his Presidency.  I read the entire letter and agreed with most of it.  I probably agree with him more than I agree with my own President.  I still think it is scary for Iran to have nuclear weapons and hope they will work within the international parameters for nuclear energy.

Yes, Iran has the right to nuclear power. The NPT treaty clearly gives this right to all who sign it.

Iran won't have a deliverable nuke for 5 or more years so we have plenty of time to work an alternative solution.\n\nMaybe the world will get lucky and they'll nuke themselves or fry enough of their technicians in accidents before they get "The Bomb".

Iran should be able to have nuclear energy. If the US is giving it to others then it should go both ways. There should be no room for hypocrisy.

It is bad that any country has atomic bombs. As of now, it is not proven Iran has atomic weapons, it is only proven they have enriched uranium.

I think we should round all liberals and ship them off to Iran.  Maybe they could persuade the islamofacist regime over there to give up their desires for nuclear weapons and to destroy Israel off the face of the earth by sitting under palm trees and singing kumbaya with the mullas until the camels come home. Maybe we will get lucky and have the Isrealies take care of the radical iranians & liberals at the same time with their nukes.  Is it just me or has every nation near Isreal threatened Isreal with destruction?  Would some one please tell me when Isreal has unjustly attacked their nation neighbor?  The absolute ignorance and attitude towards one of the strongest, most stable, techonolgically advanced country in the Middle East is just stunning.  What in the hell has Iran, Sryia, Jordan, or Lebannon provided to advance mankind?  Have any ot these countires provided any means, methods, or technologies for Humans?  Oil is the only thing I can think of and the USA had to go to them to help find, extract & refine oil.  Iran is sitting on top of the 2nd or 3rd largest supply of oil and they need nuclear power?  Use up all the oil and them you will have a major concern.\n\nI know what some of you are thinking.  What about the USA, India, and Pakistan, they have nukes!  No sh*t sherlock.  All countires with nukes has openly stated they have them & that the IAEA can freely inspect their nukes.  Iran on the other hand, has not announced their intentions and will not let the IAEA inspect.  Why even North Korea has let the IAEA inspect nukes.

Iran should have the right to peaceful nuclear technology.Why is it U.S.A,India,and all the other countries can have nukes, but Iran can't?Bush is a Racist. He hates Iranians.If you really don't want Iran to have Nuclear tech, ask the world to destroy their nuclear stockpiles first,especially the US.

hope full it want come to that, however the only way to insure that Iran's nuclear capability it completely erased is to use a small tactual nuke. it would be kinda a bunker buster and while it would re lase radiation it wouldnt be a huge amount.

In my view,Iran is as entitled to develop a nuclear program just as much as anybody else,regardless of whether it's for energy or military use.Iran has a hostile neighbour that is bristling with nuclear weapons,so who can blame them if they're trying to develop an effective defence system.Israel is a country which is founded and run according to religious fundamentalism and in my view they are the most likely to be the protagonists for the next nuclear war but nobody is prepared to try to disarm them or halt any nuclear research and development.I am from the czech Republic by the way.

It may be the only option to tackle climate change. Iran shouldn't be denied this technology because of the fears of the west. In any case their enrichment isn't anywhere near that required to make nuclear bombs (70-90%). Lets all work together for a peaceful future.

I do not.   I believe that the current leader of Iran is extremely unstable and does not believe that he should anwer to then international audience.   He believes mostly of Iran's sovereignty and believes that it is all good for his country.  I believe that their leadership is unstable and should have a close eye on it.
