Why is the West and the so-called UN unfair in the way it deals with Iran? Why impose sanctions on iran who has not aggressed anyone?
As a legitimate state, Iran has every right to develop nuclear power just like any other country. Anyway, even if it does eventually develop nuclear weapons, it is surely better to have an open friendly Iran, than one embittered through sanctions.
More alarming and shameful is that Israel, who now openly admits to possessing a nuclear arsenal (presumably supplied from external sources?), made an aggressive and totally unjustified attack which crippled it's neighbour, Lebanon, whilst the rest of the world turned a blind eye.
Iran on the other hand has only uttered words of aggression, but unlike Israel they aren't allowed to get away with it.
It's disgustingly shameful that the westerners adopt such blatant double standards.

Different views may result to different conclusion. But that's no matter with most of the people. It's just the politics. People can just talk about it,no right & wrong!

ideally yes Iran should be left alone. Unfortunatly, Iran had an islamic revolution, this nmakes her a legitimate target, if Iran gets rid of the clerics no one would worry about her having neuclear weapons. It is islam that is the problem, not the bomb
