If you'd like to see a good, quick summary of what Iran's strategic ambitions are, and the importance of nuclear weapons in achieving its goals, read this report (http://www.fpri.org/enotes/200804.inbar.israeliviewiraniannuclearchallenge.html) of a talk given by Efraim Inbar at the Foreign Policy Research Institute in Philadelphia. He argues that nuclear weapons would give Iran tremendous regional and global clout, and allow it to dominate its regional neighbors as well as advance its Islamist objectives.
