And Iraq had weapons of mass destruction.

I could be wrong, but I don't think this is speculation:

* Iran funds Hezbolla: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funding_of_Hezbollah

* Iran funds the Islamic Jihad: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_Jihad_Organization

* Iran funds Hamas: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran%E2%80%93Israel_relations#I...

* Example of suicide bombing by the Islamic Jihad: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2145621/Family-Danie...

I understand this is a highly-loaded political issue in the states, but, for Israel, Iranian funded terrorism is a threat in and of itself, nuclear weapon or not.

Both sides commit terrorism, where terrorism is defined as "politically motivated violence against civilians".
