>>936132674The leadership of Iran are assholes, not crazy. Not THAT crazy at least. They wouldn't even start a direct war with the militarily superior Israel, so why would they start a nuclear conflict with a country that has decades-more-advanced systems and the support of at least three other nuclear powers?
Iran talks shit about Israel and the US but they were never going to launch an unprovoked nuclear attack. That claim goes against basic logic, their own history, and world history. If the US and USSR never launched an exchange in the Cold War, India and Pakistan have gone decades without using their nuclear arsenals, and even Kim Jong-Un knows to keep his hand off the button, then their is no justification to say that Iran was really a threat. World leaders no nukes are only to be used when you're going to be destroyed either way.
Now, if the US does try to go through with regime change in Iran, that would change things.
