CJ, basically the argument for easing our stance against Iran's nuclear program is this:

1) Iran doesn't really want nuclear weapons.
2) Even if they want the bomb, it's hard to make.
3) Even if Iran gets the bomb, they won't dare to use it.

#1 is laughable.

#2 won't be relevant once Iran does get the bomb. Might take months, might take years, but even Obama says that Iran getting the bomb is unacceptable.

#3 is a stupid argument to make because at the very least, no one wants to see a nuclear arms race in the Middle East. Plus there are way too many suicidal fundamentalists there who are convinced that Allah wants there to be a nuclear war.
