#1 "But what iff Iran buys one or two Nuclear warheads from North Korea"? > Yuuuppp, but also keep in mind that Nuke-armed Pakistan is now Iran's BFF in West Asia besides nuke-armed, "post-US", "future World #1" wannabe Rising China.

E.g. the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, iff peace talks succeed come 2014 the Taliban, etc. Hard Boyz will be legally or formally allowed to share power wid the Pakistan Govt. THE PROB IS HIGH THAT THE TALIBAN, ETC. WILL EVENTUALLY SUCCEED IN LEGALLY GETTING CONTROL OF PAKISTAN'S NUKE ARSENAL + OTHER WMD/CBRN/NBC PROGRAMMES.

Undoubtedly Iran has mulled being able to use Pakistan's NucWeaps to help deter or militarily defend its Nucprogs + Country agz the US-Israel + aligned.

Lastly, the jury is still out of whether Iran was able to procure/transfer Nukes-WMDS from post-Soviet "-Stans", on the Regional, International Black Market(s; or even from post-Soviet Russia, etc. per se as part of a specific or general anti-US agendum.

IOW, WE DON'T KNOW WID ABSOLUTE OR OBJECTIVE CERTAINTY IFF IRAN DOES, OR DOES NOT, ALREADY POSSESSES SOME NUMBER OF NUCLEAR WARHEADS + DELIVERY SYSTEMS, + HAD SINCE THE 1990'S = FALL OF THE USSR???

Eg. SADDAMIST IRAQ + all those mysterious late-nite flights of Soviet/Russian, Other transport planes flying in-n-out of the country on a seemingly rotating basis, ALLEGEDLY TAKING THINGS OUT OF IRAQ N-O-T PUTTING OR DELIVERING THINGS TO IRAQ???
