Then its best to stop them before they DO get it. As the saying goes, get your retaliation in first. Better to prevent them developing nuclear warfare capability, than try to deny it to them afterwards
As to your implied suggestion that we should be looking at disarming while hostile parts of the world are building up their nuclear capabilities, that is just plain stupid. We have an advantage, and we should strive to keep it. We've partially disarmed already by withdrawing the WE177 family of weapons. That in itself was a mistake and sent the wrong signals
Suggesting that the west "have not lived up to their side of the treaty" is just left-wing sophistry
And as for "Trying to blame Iran for regional instability is a red-herring.", thats just total bunkum. Israel may some pretty repugnant racial practices, but they are NOT the primary target of Irans's export of Islamic terror. The whole west is their religious, moral, philosophical and military enemy. And they are dedicated to the Islamisation of the west
