Great piece! I wonder, apart from the rapid-weaponization process you describe, do you think Iran would be a normal, rational actor if they acquire nuclear weapons the more normal route (which might take months or years)?
That’s the central claim of Israel, and if there’s no reason to believe that, it seems like the only real reason to get involved evaporates (given the scenario you proposed where they might deploy a dirty bomb, eg, I suspect you do not)
