You said" I think the Iranians are developing nukes not to use them but to deter Israel [though they don't need to since Israel would leave them alone if Israel were itself left alone, but that is how paranoia works] and, more important, to deter conventional retaliation when it starts a regional conventional war or engages in blatant and large scale terrorism through Hizbollah. I suspect that they have calculated that having nukes will preclude large scale conventional retaliation."

Who is Iran but its population? There is no Iran as you posit it. There is only political momentum tied with this or that group enabled by a megaphone to call itself anything it wants.

Irans politics are in disconnect with its own citizens.

Achtune is a communist allied to the international, the clerics are kleptocrats tied as they are to a different charade.

The Folks of the holistic body politic are pushed and pulled between these poles, soon, they will exercise their degrees of freedom against the leadership in full knowledge of its inadequacies in structure, content, and goals.
