no, I don't think I'm being clear.

Many of these people we're taking about beleive that killing themselves in suicide bombings will give them eternal life. WHat I'm saying is that if these people have that sort of value in their religion, a value that consists of them forgoing there existance in order to kill others, then what makes the thought of them using a nuclear weapon so unheard of? They've already shown their disregard for their own lives, that's all I'm worried about. Obviously, not all Iranians are willing to commit suicide missions for Allah, but they have already had 40,000 people commit to become martyrs for Islam. I'm not saying they will do it, it's just I don't think they are trustworthy with such a technology, it's just too sketchy. Even if the chance of them doing something drastic with nuclear weapons is very small, that's still too much, if there is any doubt about what a country could possibly do with something as devastating as nuclear weapons, then they shouldn't be allowed to have them, it's just way too serious for "probably's" or "probably nots"

The fact that Iran is saying they will share nuclear technology is unacceptable, they should not be allowed to develop nukes if they say they are going to give the technology away, it is way too risky and potentially dangerous. Not to mention how many agreements and international policies it would violate. I think a lot of countries around the world will agree to confront Iran if they take the proliferation threat seriously, it's a big deal.
