  The Iranian nuclear bomb: a devastating boomerang

  17 March, by Houshang Sepehr

  In the aftermath of January 2026’s crackdown, voices within and close to the Islamic Republic renewed calls for Iran to complete a nuclear deterrent, claiming the bomb would have prevented the current existential crisis.

The bomb, he concludes, would have deepened Iran’s isolation rather than protecting it.
