Al Hurra

…"Iran does not necessarily want to acquire a nuclear weapon, which might call for opposition from the international community, harsh sanctions and a possible attack to dissuade it," said Jordan Steckler, a researcher at the New York-based United Against Nuclear Iran Organization. In an interview with Al-Hurra, Steckler suggested that Iran is "seeking" to acquire nuclear weapons, because this pursuit will provide it with the possibility of development and thus production at a time of its choosing, which would give it the same benefits as possessing a nuclear weapon.
