Iranian president: Sanctions hurt West as well

"Fire, war-mongering and the frustration of human beings are result of the sanctions," Rohani said., and that "fire" would also damage the countries that impose them.

These effects you had before in Iran, where the government wastes dozens of billions of dollars for military and a useless atomic program (imagine, atomic power for a country that has immense oil and gas resources) while the infrastructure is rotting and the population drifts more and more into poverty

The west can afford what is necessary - and it is necessary.

Yes, Iran has one of the largest oil and gas reserves in the world. In the early 1950s popular prime minister Mossadegh nationalised the Iranian oil and gas industry, which mean't that the Anglo Iranian Oil Company (later to become British Petroleum BP) had to give up it's exhorbitant majority share of the profits back to Iran and it's people. The British MI5 then, with the help of the US CIA, went about to destroy the reputation of Mossadegh, who was ousted from power, and then installed the puppet Shah who drove the country into the ground, setting the stage for the Islamic revolution in the late 70s. What's more is that the US sold nuclear reactor technology to Iran, encouraging the Shah to use it for power generation, claiming "oil is too noble a substance to burn". So who are you going to blame?

Why can't Iran be given the right to develop its nuclear program much the same way as every other country. I don't see enyone else on this forum complaining about the massive weapons of destruction in Israel's possession? And this is without inspection. Who gives the Heebs the right to do what they want, to whom ever they want, and to go unchallenged. As long as the injustice imposed by the US and Israel continues, there will be a lot more countries seeking nuclear arms to the point where we will have a nuclear world.

Go Iran go!! God be with you!!

All the above could have been avoided and you would not have wasted your time if you had just done one minute of research. Iran has signed the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons; Israel hasn't. Therefore, Iran has obligations under that Treaty that Isreal hasn't. Simple as that. That's why there is nothing to complain about Israel.

"There is nothing to complain about Israel." A fool's statement.
