For the time being pak nukes offset india nukes which they acquired to offset chinese nukes. Same slippery slope after iran acquires them as sunni arab states scramble to go nuke. Reason is that nukes give regional clout to folks who have them. Now you will say US deterrent is there but its not really believeable to sunni arabs. And what would you have the US do if iranians used blackmail in the area? Should we do the same and become involved in the sunni/shiaa, arab/persian wars? Thats exactly what you would argue against. Thus iranian nukes would be a menace to the stability of the region and might even get used.

by the way you sidestepped the Green Line question i posed. There was a contradiction in your answer about viablility of the two parts of pal that implied you were looking to go beyond 67 borders perhaps back to pre-israel days.. Given that thats impossible, how is peace achieved?
