A Briefing on Iran's Nuclear Program


This video is very resourceful. It gives a great background of the history of Iran's nuclear program and its involvement with both the IAEA, Internatil Atomic Energy Angency and the NPT, Treaty on the Non- Proliferation of Nuclaer Weapons.  Iran signed the NPT after the atomic bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagaski, so did majority of the world as well.  But there was still four countries who didn't sign the NPT, India, Isreal, North Korea and Pakistan.  The NPT states disarment, non- proliferation and the right to peacful nuclear programs.  Iran sign the NPT, is being overseed by the IAEA and has no nuclear weapon program.  But the 4 countries who did not sign the treaty, are not beeing overseed by the IAEA and DO have nuclear weapons.  So the question is shouldn't we be looking into those countries?

  1. An interesting group indeed. I only watched one other of their videos, which had a similar viewpoint discussing the effects of sanctions vs. those of nuclear weapons. Apparently they accept ideas from submissions and work alongside people who suggested the ideas to make these videos.

    Also, their narrators voice is awesome.
