They barely have the goods to make a few warheads. They have mostly unreliable delivery systems at present. But were one small nuke to make it all the way to Tel Aviv and do its job Israel, who has well over 400 nuclear warheads and many ways to deliver them, will retire the Persians to Atlantis -- forever. This is sad for me, by the way, since the best pistachios in the world come from Tabriz. But, being a good sport, I will buck up under the strain of that disappointment. You know: for the greater good.

In a “Statement for the Record Worldwide Threat Assessment of the US Intelligence Community Senate Select Committee on Intelligence” James R. Clapper, Director of National Intelligence January 29, 2014 stated: “We continue to assess that Iran’s overarching strategic goals of enhancing its security, prestige, and regional influence have led it to pursue capabilities to meet its civilian goals and give it the ability to build missile-deliverable nuclear weapons, if it chooses to do so.”
On Iran’s ballistic missiles he said: “We judge that Iran would choose a ballistic missile as its preferred method of delivering nuclear weapons, if Iran ever builds these weapons. Iran’s ballistic missiles are inherently capable of delivering Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD), and Iran already has the largest inventory of ballistic missiles in the Middle East."
When World War 3 breaks out, then we'll see who has all the Nuclear Warheads.
I think those Sand Niggers in the Middle East have a lot more than the United States think they have.Their Intelligence Agency is not all that swift.
