The bomb might be primitive and large but I think the Iranians could get more than 20kt out of it.

I don't think Iran could make really modern nuclear weapons but I think they could do better than fat boy.

Assuming that the Israelis would allow the ship to dock in the first place.

It wouldn't have to actually dock jut get close.

One thing in Israel's favor is all the security they have against the Palestinians might help detect the weapon if they try to move it over land, but if it did get through...
