    ...should Iran field a nuclear weapon" is pretty-much a moot point.

    If such were to occur, whom could or would intervene?

    Just how exactly would anyone intervene militarily?

    By nutty nuking Iran & starting a nuclear war to:"Save lives"?

    Besides, if not even North Korea was ever intervened with,

    why so differently pick on Iran, anyway?

    Is Iran more a Threat to World Peace than North Korea?
