We had peace for 50 years with a nuclear USSR, and they were a much greater existential threat than Iran.
We also have a nuclear North Korea. Where is World War Three?
Like it or not, Iran is a sovereign nation. If they want a nuke, so what?
I seriously doubt they are anywhere near making one.
I think that they are closer than many people think.
Until recently, I believe that they have understood that being close to having a bomb, without the baggage of having one, is an effective deterrant.
Isreal has never admitted to its nukes, so there is that precident.
I would rather not see them with the bomb.
But Trump and Netanyahu's brinksmanship may insure it.
