But in thinking of the balance (lack thereof?) of power in the Middle East, I'm moving toward the opinion that Iran would be making huge compromises on their national security by not developing nuclear weapons. Unless there were a true and global non-proliferation treaty and disarmament agreement, can you really blame them?
