So why then were they ordered to cease enrichment by the UNSC? You may be correct in your assertion that they, as a free nation, have the right but they do so at their own peril and are most definitely doing so to provoke further action.
The U.S is telling Iran to give up their right to enrich uranium.
Why would Iran do such a thing?
Maybe if the U.S offered to remove sanctions and build power plants inside Iran then Iran would listen. However, the U.S doesn't want to give Iran anything and Iran is just going to tell the U.S to F-off. U.S has a policy which states "ignore Iran and talk to them only when we talk in a threatening manner".
All the other M.E nations which are more of a threat to their neighbors are building nuclear energy. However they are "allies" of the West and we "control" them. We do not control Iran so therefore we do not want to give Iran anything that will make them stronger.
A nuclear Iran will mean the Islamic Regime will stay in power for years and years. The U.S is still stuck in this fantasy world that the regime of Iran will collapse.
Nations with nuclear plants do not have to have nuclear weapons. For instance, it will only take Japan or South Africa a couple months to build a nuclear weapon if they ever felt the need to. Yet, those nations are not part of the "nations with nuclear weapons" list.
