“Today, the Internal Atomic Energy Agency has all but confirmed that Iran is seeking nuclear weapons, notwithstanding Iran’s protests to the contrary. But it is difficult to stop Iran because Iran has the economic clout to destabilize world economies by turning off oil exports. Its threat to do so has stopped the world from meaningful action. Only if Iran overplays its hand, will the fear of possible global economic pain from the ensuing instability, force the international community to meaningfully act.”
