Self reliance? The oil and gas won't last forever.

No country needs permission for nuclear energy, like some errant child.
As soon as Iran drops its own production, sure enough the supply will be 
sanctioned as soon as an excuse lands to do so and it will all have been 
a waste of money and time as the old nuclear power stations crumble into 
disrepair and Iran exports it's last oil and gas to raise money for 
weapons to fight off the invaders, or food to feed the hungry, whatever.

As far as creating a nuclear deterrent.
Iran really, really needs a nuclear deterrent.
Otherwise it is very likely to be bombed back to the stone age in some 
completely unnecessary rage-riddled drive of madness over something 
immeasurable.
