Because god forbid that Iran should have (relatively) environment friendly electric power! I mean, America should have it because they're such sane chaps. They'd never use nukes (apart from against Japan, and really who cares), they'd never fund or stock people who employ terror tactics (apart from Saddam, but hell you just blitzed his country to prove that he no longer had the weapons you sold him years back so I guess it's kinda balanced out. So what if the civvies can't get to hospital, or drink from their taps) and they'd never invade another country (apart from Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq ... twice ...). Compared to the dirty dirty international actions on the part of Iran, who are CONSTANTLY invading other countries and fingering the launch button for those abundant nuclear weapons.


You will excuse me for saying so, but if I we're not ok with Iran having nuclear power, why the hell do we let America stock nukes? Who are we to say that Iran must use coal power (and chuck out ton after ton of CO2) if they want to boil a kettle?
