MAD is only a detergent if everyone has Nuclear bombs.
If the US and west get to keep their bombs, despite being the US being the only country to have ever used one, then everyone should be able to have nuclear bombs.
The thing is, the US and west don't actually want to prevent nuclear weapons from being used, they specifically want to prevent them being used against them and their allies, while maintaining the threat of using them against their enemies.
Anybody who wants peace and justice wants iranians to be able to defend themselves from centuries of endless imperial attacks. There will never be peace or progress if only the genocidal fascists are armed. They already have nukes and their explicit goal is invading and stealing every neighboring country.
The Persian empire was pretty big, until Alexander the Great (Greece) kicked their asses. This area has had empires rise and fall for millennia. Iran was the dominant power (and sometime colonizer) western Asia for 12 centuries.
I highly doubt anything will ever bring it peace, it's the middle east, nuclear proliferation is a terrible idea. And that goes for anyone, any country.
