I think that Iran should be able to use it for energy purposes. I also think that they should only be using it for energy purposes, and not taking whats left after they use it for energy, and making bombs out of it.

I think no body should be making nuclear bombs. The countries that already have them should get rid of them. They shouldn't use nuclear energy because they can make bombs.

That's a little scary. Let's just all create weapons of mass destruction and leave them sitting around. I'm too young to blow up! And all those countries that don't really like us, like North Korea... why do they have any? Super scary.
