Madison Schramm warns against an overreaction to the Iranian plot:
Iran has almost hit the nuclear capable mark, at which point it would possess the technical expertise and materials to move quickly to create a weapon. But if Iran manages to cross that threshold, it will be in the company of the estimated 40 states already in the nuclear capable club. Were the Iranians to gain capability and then to arm, Washington would need to prepare for some muscle flexing – not Armageddon.
If the government's accusations hold up, Ackerman thinks the Iranians have been exposed as bumbling fools. Shikha Dalmia concurs.
