Cut all the b.s., humans are naturally out for their best interest (sometimes with the exception of family and close friends). Nations are no different. I don't think anyone is right or wrong in this situation and I can see both sides of the arguement.
Given the United State's brazen attitude to attack Iraq without the consent of the U.N., I cannot blame Iran for wanting to arm themselves with nukes as a means of defense and future bargaining power with countries such as the U.S. and Britian.
On the opposite side of the coin, I would fully expect the U.S. to oppose nukes in Iran and expect them to stage a premptive military strike if they feel the nukes could be used in an attack against America in the future.
I think it's a matter of what side of the coin you fall on. As an American, I fully admit I have my best interest (and those I care about) at heart. As a result, America should take out the current regime in Iran and erradicate their nuclear program.

Sire this phrase
"if they feel the nukes could be used" is a dangerous one ... if feeling is what determines it all well why not feel the same way for indian bomb? after all it is a different country and so CAN attack .... if one starts killing other person because it FEELS the other can use there is going to be chaos .... and if we have to consider facts it is only US that has used the bomb ever so the whole world should FEEL only US will use the bomb and hence should be rid of it
