Nuclear Power or WEAPON?

Iranian President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has been negotiating with the West on providing fuel for use in a medical reactor. Iran has written a letter to the International Atomic Energy Agency informing them that they intend to enrich uranium up to 20 percent. This proposal was attractive to the West because it would deprive Iran of stockpiles that it could convert into bomb fuel, while providing Tehran with fuel rods that would be very difficult to use in a weapon. The West is saying that Iran has rejected the deal because of the sanctions that Russia, China and the US have been resisting. However, Tehran accuses the West of failing to respond to its proposals.
