Agree. Israel needs to give up its nukes. But I see Iran as a real threat to Arab states, more than Israel. Iran expressed their intentions of regional hegemony and proved it by its actions. Israel have not. nuclear Israel is not a threat to Arab states.

EDIT: Israel owned nuclear bomb for 40 years and have not used it, even when they were losing in the 73' war.. and cant use it against Pales cos Israel would suffer, too. In the other hand, Iran can not be trusted for many reasons, as we trusted Saddam before.

Yes, it is true that the arab nations would prefer not see iran gain more power in the region - perhaps with the exception of the iraqi leadership. A powerful shiite ally in iran is a benefit to them.
