Why does the article talk only about "Iran"??? The official name of that country is "The Islamic Republic of Iran"; and anyone who wants to understand what is going on needs to understand the significance of the official name. The Islamic Republic of Iran is not a nation state in the normal sense. It is a revolutionary, aggressive state bent on spreading Islam to the entire world by force. Take a look at the Preamble to its constitution.

PREAMBLE
An Ideological Army
In the formation and equipping of the country's defense forces, due attention must be paid to faith and ideology as the basic criteria. Accordingly, the army of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps are to be organized in conformity with this goal, and they will be responsible not only for guarding and preserving the frontiers of the country but also for fulfilling the ideological mission of jihad in God's way; that is, extending the sovereignty of God's law throughout the world (this is in accordance with the Koranic verse "Prepare against them whatever force you are able to muster, and strings of horses, striking fear into the enemy of God and your enemy, and others besides them." [8.60])
This tells us two important things:
1) The Islamic Republic will use its armed forces to impose Islamic law on the rest of the world;
2) Their god in the Koran requires them to acquire all possible weapons.
Therefore, to expect the Ayatollahs to agree NOT to acquire nuclear weapons is to expect them to violate their own Constitution and the sacred commands of their god, Allah. Good luck with that!
