We will not allow Iran to control Middle East oil. Simple as that.

Russia and China will have something to say about that and will provide nuclear umbrella

Incorrect. Many experts say one nuke will do it. If I ran Israel I don't take this chance and strike first One nuke destroying Tel Aviv and the Arabs can kill off whatever and whoever remains

I have visited Israel twice. There is no way one atomic bomb will destroy the country. And Israel has over 200 nuclear weapons of its own.

So how come Israel doesn't nuke Hizbollah in S Lebanon and Iran's nuclear program and get it over with?
The correct answer is those 200 nukes are useless
They will be even more useless after Iran has one or two -- Then Israel will be vulnerable to a nuke smuggled into Tel Aviv

Israel doesn't make the kind of existential bets you do. Matter of fact you wouldn't either if you governed Israel
Israel's 200 nukes are good for retaliation after Israel has been destroyed -- The Samson Option
And many of those 200 nukes just might be targeted by the Russians to back up the Iranians

Nuclear umbrella to do what? An Iranian takeover of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Iraq? Be serious.
