From what I understand the issue is not really the access to nuclear energy but, the access to nuclear material. If some more "rogue" and "dangerous" countries had access to nuclear material and enriching plants they could easily create nuclear bombs which, these countries being more unstable than most, they could use for an attack that would kill many people.
