  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.
