Maybe. It seems that Europe and the US are taking the threat of a nuclear Iran as a serious matter. Well, the US has for a while--Bush named Iran as one a part of the Axis of Evil in 2002.
Since then, things have gotten worse--Iran's new president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, is an apocalypse nut, who possibly, can bring at least a regional apocalypse.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel is on the same page as Bush. And the rest of Europe seems to be as well. This time.
Ahmadinejad just rolls along, and says he'll continue his nuclear program.
The Iranian president said last year Israel should be "wiped off the map."
He's dangerous to Muslims as well. Let's say Ahmadinejad did "nuke" Israel. Many Muslims living in Israel proper and the West Bank would die. The prevailing winds would send the nuclear fallout beyond the borders of the Jewish state--and geographically speaking--it is a very small nation. Other than the Mediterranean Sea, Israel is of course surrounded by majority Muslim countries.
