Iran will have to test at least one bomb before their supposed nuclear capability becomes anything like an actual threat, to us or even its immediate neighbours (less still Israel, 1,000km away)
Given that it's impossible for a country to conduct a nuclear test without the rest of the world immediately finding out*, we have one absolute pivot point where action against Iran becomes incontrovertible necessity.
At that point, the usual geopolitical hedgebetting naysayers in regards to action against Iran (Russia, China, etc) would have no substantive argument against a preemptive incapacitating strike, leaving the world clear to do its thing in a clinical, measured way.
EVERYTHING before that, every Fox News, Jerusalem Post or Telegraph piece of agitprop can be safely ignored as being war mongering preparative incitement and should be viewed as propaganda, best ignored or at least read-through.
.
* Ok, excluding Israel/South Africa who in all likelihood colluded to blow up a piece of Bouvet Island as their nuclear test, but their situation was a little more favourable than comprehensively-monitored Iran, unable in any practical sense to sneak off to the South pole to dick around with nukes.

it's ok,
it's not like we've haven't been lied to before to get us into a war,
when I say us, I mean the human race,
no country in particulary.

there is no way that America will move it's massive War machine out of the middle east without first taking care of Iran. The cost of moving the troops home outweigh all out war with yet another country. WINTER IS COMING!

The real risk of war and instability in the Middle East lies not with gay crooners nor sanctions nor imaginary Iranian nukes nor Israel’s psychotic ambitions for Lebensraum. (Wherever do they get such notions?)
It lies in the imminent collapse of the Saudi monarchy due to political decrepitude and mortal age. There are nothing but very old men in the line of succession, and over half the Kingdom’s male population is under the age of 15 — and half of those are unemployed as a permanent condition. Wards of the state, literally.
When the Kingdom falls in the next few years, it will be impossible to stop the popular will of the Saudi people for an Islamic state. Nor can American or other Western troops set foot there to forcibly establish a friendly regime. That would be an unforgivable blasphemy upon the land of Mecca. So we won’t be invited to the party, as in Libya.
The other popular will of the Wahabi Islamists will be to take on Iran, the den of the Shia dogs and infidels. Iran will be delighted to return the sentiments and activities. There will be no lasting peace between Sunni and Shiite fundies. It will very much get in the way of shipping oil in our direction.
Saudi Arabia is where the collapse is going to come from, and it will be overnight, most likely.

An estimated 600 Syrian Free Army fighters simultaneously attacked Government targets from five directions around the capital, Sky News has learned.
During the operation, on Friday night, a bus carrying Russian oil workers was hit and rocket propelled grenades were fired at a building housing them.

Jesus fucking Christ - have you even watched the whole of that video you've linked to?!
‘Galactic Crisis’?!
What is this fucking nutjobbery?! Ripped straight out of the tome of adolescent conspiracy. Jesus fucking Christ.
“...until we in the United States find the guts to break out of this system in one decisive action, we were [sic] doomed to suffer a world war, from which the human species may not recover in time to deal with the looming Galactic Crisis”
