1.- Iran is intent on obtaining nuclear weapons.

Seems to be a reasonable assumption.

2.- It intends to use them on Israel and, because of religious reasons, is not deterred by Israel's own nukes.

A rather questionable assumption IMO.

3.- Some of its leaders [Ahmadinejad being the most prominent example] appear clinically insane.

I don't know if I would call him insane. Radical? Yes. Potentially dangerous? Yes. But I'm not sure I'd say insane. Then again I am no expert on the man.
