Because this is before the fact? Besides, nukes are probably always going to be lower on the list of things to do after an attack, regardless of type or perpetrator. We can do as much damage with conventional weapons without the downsides of nukes. If you told Iran, “We’re not going to nuke you no matter what. But we will bomb the everloving shit out of you with conventional bombs if you try something,” they’d shit their drawers and then act tough before scrapping whatever plans for attack they had. Of course that last part is hyperbole — they wouldn’t have a plan in the first place because they already know we’d fuck them up. Nukes don’t really matter.
