The moment that Iran will emerge as a nuclear power has been expected as the revolution against the king (Shah) emerged victorious. The Mullas (the religious people) emerged with a mentality that highly regards self-dependence, and considers it as part of the Islamic teachings. A good Muslim doesn’t put his fate in the hands of others even if they were friends, should always be vigilant and capable of defending him/herself. A Muslim should always be strong, not for the purpose of attacking others, but for deterring aggressors.
