The issue of Middle eastern countries producing Nuclear weapons or weapons of Mass destruction have been a serious problem for the past decade. Ever since the attacks of 9/11 that devastated the whole nation. The west has been very strict on foreign nations developing Nuclear power. Many of which are Iran. It has been discovered that Iran currently developing in their nuclear power but could it be for benefitting purposes? Does the West have the right to intervene with their development? Can Iran be trusted?
Due to the late liberation of many Middle Eastern countries, they are not as developed and stable as the western countries that have been independent for centuries. Currently these countries are working towards improving and developing themselves for the good of their people. Nuclear power is a major aspect in the development of a country due to its major role of providing jobs, power for academic needs etc. The majority of people in Iran are under 30 years old. Due to this very young population, new technology is being introduced which requires nuclear power in order to be used. Iran as a very young nation should have the right to develop Nuclear power in order to further their success as a nation. It wouldn't be fair for the people of Iran to continue to suffer and not develop themselves as a nation.
Nnamdi,
ReplyDeleteGood post. Try to get it in on time, though. This post is 5 days late.
You make many good points and have a good analysis, but what about the opposing viewpoint? Who disagrees with you? Republicans? Israel?
Your second paragraph should focus on these viewpoints - those of the people who believe that Iran should be stopped - even if it means another war. Israel and US are trying to stop Iran by using computer viruses, assassins, etc. What is their reasoning?
Include this viewpoint, and your viewpoint will only strengthen, if you can artfully persuade your reader with strong facts and analysis.
