The UN nuclear watchdog has voted to report Iran to the security council over its nuclear activities.
Twenty-seven countries out of 35 on the agency's board voted for the resolution, with just three against and five abstentions.

The decision follows days of intensive diplomacy at the agency and could lead to possible UN sanctions against Iran.

A senior Iranian official said Tehran's first response would be to resume full-scale enrichment of uranium.

Not too sure what's happening really, I think it means they've been reported because everyone wants them to stop their nuclear activity until some sort of compromise is reached?

I don't trust them at all, I mean their country is basically an oil field so wtf do they need nuclear power for

Iran really are going the wrong way about this whole thing, why can't they just cooperate with the other countries.

We don't have the right but if they are part of the UN (don't know if they are?) they should comply with their guidelines/regulations etc, just to make the rest of the world feel at ease.

True but we didn't say lets wipe another country off the map, and for that reason I don't feel safe with Iran having Nuclear weapons if they make them or any country for that matter

I don't feel comfortable with any country having nukes, don't think I made that clear in my other post though
