I don't think the people who control Iran are logical rational people. I think they are religious fanatics who firmly believe that Allah will protect them and/or give them 72 virgins. If they don't nuke Israel themselves, I think you will find them slipping some bombs to Hezbollah and Hamas and letting them do the dirty work.

Since it doesn't look like Netanyahu nor Obama is going to take out their nuclear facilities militarily, time will tell whose assessment of the Iranian leadership is correct.

If Israel does get nuked, I hope I am there at the time. I couldn't bear to live in a world without the Jewish state.

I wouldn't underestimate their rationality, firstly they didn't mind cooperating with Israel when they were fighting Saddam. Secondly, I doubt they think they are going to heaven if they, in any way, harm Jerusalem, especially the Temple Mount. Even if they are crazy fanatics (I think they are fanatical, but not mad) they won't risk destroying the Al Aqsa Mosque, which is precisely what would happen if they nuke Israel.

Instead, they would sell arms to Hezbollah and Hamas and have them carry out attacks against Israel.
