Iranian Nuclear Issues January 2011

The security council suspended all sanctions of enriching uranium in Iran. The leader of Iran states that the country is developing a nuclear program that would help save the oil for export.The security council had its own specific reasons to do so. some of the reasons are listed below 

• If Iran enriches their level of uranium then it would be a possibility they could use the enriched uranium to make nuclear weapons that are very destructive 
• There are fears around the globe of Iran secretly making nuclear weapons 

There is always the potential threat of Iran aqiring nuclear weapons because now days making it is not the biggest issue, you can find how to make a nuclear weapon even on the internet. Top Israel military officials say that Iran will not be able to produce any nuclear weapons before the year 2015 because all the measures have been taken to prevent that from happening. Iran let inspectors from foreign nations into the country to check up on the nuclear power plants and so that they can get the permission to start building them but the inspectors were denied of adequate information that they need to know. Iran would not tell the inspectors the main reason behind making these nuclear power plants and whether it is to make weapons.  

The revolt in Iran Feb,2011

After the successful revolution in egypt the people in Iran saw that there is a hope of change if they rioted on the streets just like egypt and Tunisia. The crowd in Tehran battled the armed forces of iran which led to the armed forces releasing teargases and trying to gain control back with the use of batons. After dodging the tear gases the crowd had reached the central boulevard and were yelling out slogans like "death to the dictator" and "we are all together". Many of the protesters were arrested for taking part in the rally. The Iranian government had taken this event as a surprise with the amount of protesters that turned out to be there. There was a senario where a man was coming to rescue his wife after she had been beaten brutally by an officer that was trying to disperse all the protesters. As the day became broader more protesters gathered up and the police were retreating. By the time it was evening the protesters got tired and slowly started dispersing. after the revolt had taken place Iran's world wide wed had been disrupted because social media was the method that was used to launch that days rally. So now as the internet had been disrupted the people who had organized the rally could not reach out to the people of Iran anymore and therefore it led to the failure of the revolution, that could have taken place. As the sun set down some of the protesters also burnt down garbage cans.
