The author gets to the point when he says:

"Iranian diplomacy, especially under the 11th administration, is focused on thwarting the conspiracy of the United States and Israel for introducing Iran as a threat to regional Arab states."

And after all Israel has the nuclear Bomb and

the Saudis heavily financed Pakistan's Bomb so that in time of war the Saudis would be protected by Pakistan's Sunni Bomb

it is only right that Iran completes its project to build the Iranian-Shiite Bomb.

Yes and if the armed nuclear bombs are shot down over the territory they are launched from and detonate right there; what then?

And would that then count as a successful outcome; and or, friendly fire?

Hi Rhrosty

Nuclear warheads of country "A", typically on missiles, are supposed to have several failsafe devices (including delayed arming) which prevent full fission-fusion explosions while over A's territory. Even if shotdown.

However, there may be a fair sized conventional explosion spreading highly radioactive material, such as Uranium-235 and Plutonium-238, over a little bit of A.

A friendly nuclear war safety tip from

Pete :)
