” ………. The Israeli option

Iran could choose to follow Israel’s example and develop nuclear weapons in defiance of international agreements on denuclearisation. It could withdraw from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and build with haste a nuclear arsenal to match Israel’s. The Iranians have the knowledge, the technology, and the raw materials. Whatever they do not have, they can adopt the Israeli approach to acquire it illicitly………

The Egyptian option 

The second option, the one that a peaceful and sane world would prefer and propose, is the Egyptian one. Iran should follow in the footsteps of Egypt and mobilise other countries in the region to launch a global quest for a nuclear-free Middle East.

Iran and other regional powers can be part of the solution by leading the way in calling for a nuclear-free world.  https://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/opinion/iran-nuclear-options-190729112714738.html
