5. I think fearing Iran would use nukes is based on fear or bigotry

N. Korea has nukes and never used them.

Iran has the ability to mass produce chemical/bio weapons and never have or used them on us or Israel. They know if one molecule of mustard gas were to hit Israel that they would be turned to glass. Mutual Assured Destruction is in their vocabulary.

They've also been very restrained in this war from taking out all desalination plants, energy plants, and oil/gas fields which they could easily do at any time. It would completely take down all of us with them. And if boots start landing on their soil, you bet that's what you're going to start seeing. They want to survive just like any human. It's just fearmongers and warmongers that have other motives.
