Why does the USA and Unites Nations  have a right to fuss at Iran and Iraq for Nuclear Weapons when the USA?

First of all the U.S.  is not threatening to wipe a sovereign nation (Israel) off of the planet.  Secondly, you say you are not ignorant but may I say misinformed?  Did you know the president of Iran IS A TERRORIST!  He was involved in the U.S. Embassy Hostage taking in 1979-80.  That is an act of war when you invade an embassy.  If the terrorists ever get nuclear weapons you can kiss New York City and many American and Israeli citizens good bye.  THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS have a solemn duty to protect the U.S. and its allies.\n\nThe simple answer to your question comes down to responsibility.  That is the way of the world and it is not an issue of equality.  When people, no matter who you are, are irresponsible they have "rights" taken away.  They are ruthless barbarians that have threatened to kill as many U.S. and Israeli people as they can.  I hope this answers your question by making a distinction between responsibility and equality.

If that were the case does it give India, Pakistan, Isreal and all the other nuclear powers the right to attack us because we have nuclear weapons - I think not.\n\nAnd who are we to dictate to other countries whether they should have nuclear weapons or not.  We expect the world to accept that it's OK for us to have weapons but then have the hypocricy to condemn other countries who acquire or want to acquire them.\n\nTo my mind it would be much better if no-one had them.

It's not just America that is saying this, Great Britain and FRANCE (of all people) are saying that action (whether economical or militaristic) needs to be taken against Iran since it is looking like they will not meet the UN's deadline to cease uranium enrichment.

I don't know what that first person above me is talking about, but the problem is Iran and Syria. They are the ones propagating the violence in Iraq AND in Lebanon in order to better suit their own interests, that being to give the US hell to prevent the US from helping Israel in case Iran wants to attack Israel and to use the violence as a way to get the US to talk to Iran and Syria so that the US government can hear their case, that being their agenda in the Middle East. Also, Iran does not want a stable Iraq. Iran and Iraq had a long eight-year war with one another and over a million people were killed. If Iraq was stable and still under Saddam or any stable government, Iran would have a nation to contend with. Iran and Iraq have hated each other for more than two-thousand years, going all the way back to when Persia (modern Iran) conquered Babylon (modern Iraq).\nIt was stupid for us, the United States, to attack Iraq. It would have been in our better interests to leave that country alone, because now that Iraq is in shambles, there is no nation in the Middle East that can be used (besides Israel) to help fight Iran.

Do they have the right? \nThe nuclear weapons is a danger to the wealth of this world.(It is said that they can destroy the world inumerous times) But, more and more, we see an increasing trend of evil politicians in USA allowing it to be constructed at an ever increasing rate. Do they have the right to threat the world just because it lies mainly within their border? They are proving to be incapable, but the rest of the world seems powerless to stop the destruction their greed is causing! Can we trust the political will of the USA people to clean up their government and start to protect what many feel belongs to us all (the world)?

Iran has every right to enrich uranium for energy purposes because it is a member of the N-NPT (Nuclear non-perliferation Treaty). This treaty guarantees this right. \n\nIronically, Bush told India, who has refused to sign the N-NPT, they could enrich uranium. This creates a very complicated dilema.\n\nAdditionally, if you examine Iran's history, Iran has no history of aggression but rather of defense. Iran has also held to all regulations of the NPT to include full access to all uranium enrichment sites to all U.N. inspectors. \n\nThere is no evidence to support restricting Iran's right to enrich uranium in order to obtain nuclear energy. Also, keep in mind, Israel has nuclear weapons.

The problem is not between Iran and the US.  It is between Iran and most of the civilized world (and part of the uncivilized world too).  Ultimately the problem is between Iran and itself.  Iran is sleepwalking toward a war that they will lose.  They think that the issue is whether they "deserve" to have nuclear weapons.  This is not the issue.  The real issue is whether the US, Israel, and others will allow them to have nuclear weapons.  And the answer to this is "no".  If Iran does not stop pushing this, they will get lit up.

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

Existence of nuclear weapons is threat to humanity.Efforts should be made for a nuclear free zone in Middle East including Iran and Israel. Americans must have faith in their Government which is committed for their protection. A solution to the problem will be found.

You're really jumping to incorrect conclusions here.  Iran is being placed in front of the UN Security Council because of their desired nuclear program.  They were put in front of the Security Council by 27 countries (only 1 of which is the US).  The US has had no direct diplomatic ties to Iran since 1979 when they took the US Embassy.  Because of this, the US has actually had nothing directly to do with this issue, only indirectly thru the EU3.  Since 2 of the EU3 holds the US in pretty low regards how can you even think that the US has had ANY influence on the proceedings at all to date.

Iran is being threatened by the US after we attack Iraq.  In order to protect itself, it is seeking for defense in nuclear weapon.  If it does not get nuclear help, US will find other reason to attack Iran.  Maybe another Weapon of Mass Destruction, and after we conquer Iran, we will make a public speech stating that we got the wrong information from UK again.

Israel is a lot less likely to be firing off nuclear weapons at their enemy-of-the-week than Iran is.  But who has the right to develope them and who doesn't - I don't know.   The US and the UN want to be the Police of the World, and that seems to cause more problems than it solves.

Crikey,\n\nHave you guys ever heard of international law?\n\nGiven that the US was instrumental in the birth of the League of Nations, the current administration has done less for worldwide stability than Adolf Hitler.\n\nWhilst we defend our right to democracy, it is not our right to force democracy on countries that do not want it.  Attacking countries that harbour terrorists, only makes the problems worse.  Yes Iraq has democracy, but at what price...?\n\nIt's funny that a couple of years ago the US was the main source of support for republican terrorists in Ireland.  Why are Iran and Syria any different.

The Us has the largest stockpile of active nuclear material thus it is still the most dangerous nation there is, liable to use their nuclear arsenal if they deem it is rightious enough for their cause such as they had contemplated during the attack on Iraq. As for the world many countried now own nuclear arsenal such as France, Isreal, China, Russia, India, Pakistan and other countried deem to be developing nuclear capabilities such as North Korea and Iran.
