You seem to be missing the point. Iran's LWR at Bushehr HAS ALREADY
BEEN characterized as 'dual use' technlogy. That's why the US opposes
it.


Hi,
lets be honest here. Its not an issue of dual use equipment so much
as its pretty obvious Eyeran wants to build nuclear weapons with the
knowledge/equipment/material aquired from foreign (or local for that
matter) sources. Eyeran is signatory to the NPT which bars countries from
pursuing a nuclear weapons program in exchange for dual use nuclear
technology.

Eyeran has every right to develop its civil nuclear industry under the NPT
but as you I'm sure know, that isn't its only objective.

Its of course true that the world order, by human nature, is inherently
unfair. That nations seek to aquire n-weapons but seek to deny it to
others..etc.
