Wish I'd said that. 

Minor correction -- these things combine multiplicatively, 
not additively. So the existence of four Iranian nukes would 
only discourage about 68% of the Israeli population 
(0.75 ^ 4 is about 0.32). About 4.8 nukes would bring the 
number up to 75%, and 8 Iranian nukes would 
scare away about 90%. 

Such a bargain! 

Contributions to the Iranian nuclear program can be sent 
to me. I'll see that they get into the right hands.
