Voted Not sure (and I am worried they would)
They claim they don't and as willravel said they have good reason to use nuclear power so thay can sell their Oil. If they would use their own oil it would be like burning money.
Also most religious leaders (including Ayatollah Ali Khamenei) condem the development, stockpiling and use of nuclear weapons.
The Problem is the question how honest these claims are. Is Mahmoud Ahmadinejad dangerously mad or is he just posing as a "strong leader" to appease the people? Are the leaders of Iran carzy enough to risk the total destruction of their nation just to blow up Tel Aviv? Does MAD work in this case?

Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death
