very confusing post this.
in any case the reasons why Iran might want a bomb are only very loosely related to the reasons why other countries might not want Iran to have a bomb.
And once they have a working bomb, they are safe from attack. So we attack first, or not at all.

My point is that it is no good idea to let a dictatorship get access to powerfull weapons. The deployment of the Wehrmacht into the Rhineland was the obvious signal to the world: we want the same rights/military like the other countries, while simultaneously trying to acquire the superweapons of its time (battleships, tanks, submarines). Don't know what's confusing about this.
Countries like Saudi-Arabia give me the same worries, not only regarding a potential acquisition of nukes, but also regarding conventional weapons, like the purchase of fighter jets from the US or tanks from Germany, deals that were made in the past months.
