"New Iran Nuclear talks deadlines: March 1, July 1, 2015" by Tashina Amiro

March 1, 2015 has become the new deadline for deciding whether or not Iran is allowed to have nuclear power. Iran claims they should be given this right because their only interest is to develop peaceful nuclear power. Western powers have accused Iran on trying to develop nuclear weapons also. Overall, a big decision is at stake.

Personally, I don't feel people should have been power hungry to the point of wanting the ability to destroy so many in an instant. Unfortunately, nuclear weapons do exist, so why should a right be given for one country to have and another to not. No country should be above another; it goes against the balance of powers. Basically, this shouldn't even be a problem at hand.

  1. I'd have to disagree with that statement: "developing peaceful nuclear power." Correct me if I'm wrong, but nuclear power is often anything but peaceful. It's definitely a power hungry factor that has torn apart many countries. Claims can say it's also used for defense, but it's certainly not peaceful.
