It's the fact that as soon as they develop the technology, they will be selling it to anyone who wants one. Can you imagine Bin Laden in control of a nuke? You saw what a few planes did, imagine a huge ass bomb. We need to show them that we are serious, destroy their enriching facilities, and take that bastard out of power. Do we learn anything from history? It's not like they are trying to develop it for energy. Look at who they associate with. Our enemies. Pacifism will eventually destroy this country.
