So by 2015 the entire gulf region will have the ability to make nuclear weapons. Well I will be nearly 70, I think i will leave that for the youngsters to worry about. Frankly I don't even care if Iran gets a nuclear weapon, as long as no one complains that after iran attacks Israel, which I believe they will, Israel melts down much of the Gulf. There is no reason that israel should struggle with the effects of a Nuclear attack, and not expect it's neighbours to share the damage. OTOH, what will the world do, the year of the Nuclear winter? The middle East Oil will be pretty much unreachable, and there will be millions of refugees, many with some form of radiation damage. The last Nuclear war was only 2 cities and one country, Does anyone think that we will be that lucky the next time. Think of Nuclear Damage from India to Northern Africa. Think of an impassible Suez.
