BBC ASKS, "SHOULD IRAN DEVELOP NUCLEAR ENERGY?": Keeping in mind Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's hopeful words for the future:
"As the Imam said, Israel must be wiped off the map"
And, of course,
"They have created a myth today that they call the massacre of Jews and they consider it a principle above God, religions and the prophets"
The world still resoundingly answers:
"What right have we to deny them the rights that we exercise daily?"
Oh yeah, because Ahmadinejad participated in the Iranian hostage crisis, wants Israel "wiped off the map" and thinks that the Holocaust was a lie. Then of course, there is the fact that nuclear weapons clearly constitute basic human rights in a state that is out of compliance with always useful UN inspectors.
That little Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty sure doesn't mean much.
