I've said this before. Iran has been working on a nuke bomb for more than a dozen years. They have sent their best away to the finest schools and they have imported the best talent they could find. Plus the technology needed for a bomb is everywhere. It is 60 year old technology. Many countries have it, many spy organizations have it. Much is on the Internet. Pakistan has it. N Korea has it and they are flat broke and hungry.

It this situation and atmosphere, how can they NOT HAVE the bomb already?

We made the bomb in less than 3 years back in the 1940's. And then there was no technology to steal. It didn't exist until our foreign scientists invented it.

In a perfect world, they would accidentally detonate the device while trying to get it ready for launch thereby doing the rest of the world a favor by blowing up a good chunk of their country.

Unfortunately, push is probably going to come to shove and the result won't be pretty. The only question is who will do it, as well as how and when will it be done.
