Many Americans have a slightly different view of Iranian nukes than you do. Iranian nukes don't really directly threaten the US, and Iran has not threatened the US with them. It will be somewhere between 5 and 10 years before the Iranians actually even HAVE nukes. A lot of Americans don't give a hoot about how Israel feels.

I more or less agree with what the guy says, Iran WILL get nukes. We aren't even going to sign off on Israel cutting off 5% of the world's oil at this time - they'd have to do it on their own, against our wishes. The world can't afford to lose Iran's oil production. We can't ask the Saudis to take up the slack again (as we did after invading Iraq), because there isn't any. That's much more important to Americans than the Israeli's "feelings".
