That’s correct. The point is that until now Iran has intentionally not built a nuke - they’ve kept themselves within range to make it a credible threat, but they’ve not completed the project because so far the tacit agreement has been that if they don’t build a nuke, the US doesn’t let the Israelis bomb Tehran.

I kinda want to see the entire middle east despute region nuke itself into a glowing parking lot. So many problems solved.
