IRANIAN NUCLEAR THREAT

From World Affairs Journal.  People aren't taking it seriously.

Fact 1. Iran really is an eliminationist anti-Semitic regime that routinely threatens to wipe Israel off the map.
Fact 2. This regime is close to having a nuclear capability.  
Fact 3. Iran is absolutely not just Israel’s problem.
Fact 4. If Iran gets the bomb, the likely result would be a Mideast arms race as other Arab states would feel pressured to obtain weapons to deter Tehran.
Fact 5. It is widely argued that an Iranian bomb would throw a protective shield over its regional terrorist proxies.
Fact 6. This one lies in the future. An Iranian regime able to combine a nuclear capability with an inter-continental ballistic missile threat would be a direct threat to Western Europe and North America.
