Iran will have nukes. Iran will have ICBMs that can deliver them. Both are dubious. Developing a deliverable weapon is not an easy task. Definitely not one they can do in secret with that agreement in place. And they have a long way to go before they can develop an ICBM that can reach the US. They are nowhere close to having that capability. Look how long it took us to gain the capability to reach the USSR, and it is considerably closer than Iran is. Even if they push hard, it will take a long time. The argument that "they won't be the leadership for long" is bullshit. We don't know what the future holds in Iran. The average age of Iranians is 19. They lost an entire generation in the Iran-Iraq war. Unless the leadership can close off the country like North Korea, Western influence is a given. Despite what the leadership would prefer.
