Why so much ado over Iran's nuclear programme?


The world powers' attitude towards Iran's nuclear programme is unjust and unacceptable. Iran is repeatedly saying that its nuclear programme is only for peaceful purpose but the US is not listening to it and is prepared to take drastic steps.

The United States, United Kingdom, Israel, North Korea have nuclear facilities; India and Pakistan not excluded so why take on Iran? In the second world war atom bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki by the US but it is of no concern if US possess nuclear weapons! Is not it queer?

So, we think if Iran could not have it, other countries should also halt their nuclear programmes. Is not it funny that Israel could have nuclear facilities but not Iran, in fact being Muslim country?
