I voted "Yes". Iran needs the Bomb as a counterweight to Israeli nuclear power, and further to American influence in the Middle East. Also, a powerful Iran (stabilizing Muslim world and throwing Israel and the Americans out of it) would be the best ally of a nationalist Europe in this region.

I don't support a dismantling of our nuclear facilities as long as any other country has nuclear bombs, from the Washington-London-Tel-Aviv Evil Axis to Muslim and Asiatic countries. This is precisely our only guarantee of not getting a nuke on Paris, and that our allies (Germany in particular) will not get one on their towns.
I believe in mutual nuclear deterrence. No one wins a nuclear war so no one is going to start one. But if you don't have or give up your nuclear weapons then other hostile countries can use nuclear backmail (the best example being China towards Taiwan). I can't imagine Europe being between the Jewish-Anglo-Saxon axis and the Muslim-Chinese alliance without any weapon to make them fear us.
That's why Europe needs French and Russian nuclear arsenal. This is about our very right to life.
