Fully agreed, and the existence or lack of an Iranian nuclear capability does nothing to change that.

The diplomats and intell sources for that article disagree. Here’s a recent example from last week that illustrates the point.

WRAPUP 2-Iran threatens to hit any country used to attack its soil
This threat doesn’t mean much with conventional weapons and so much western military presence in the region but a nuclear armed Iran with a regime on the brink of collapse may carry out the threat. It greatly complicates outside assistance for a popular uprising.
