Surely, no serious person is concerned Iran will construct nuclear weapons that will be used against her neighbors (or any country, really). . . .

-------------------------------- Well, perhaps no serious people are concerned about this, but a huge number of standard issue Americans are apparently concerned with it. I've been having it out with a whole slew of folks on some other boards who are absolutely convinced that Iran is going to build a single nuclear weapon and immediately attack Israel with it, no matter what the consequences might be. This is because all Muslims are "suicidal" and want to die as quickly as possible. Amazing stuff. Anyway, this study has some interesting insights into current DOD policy on the issue:
