Israel is believed to be the sixth nation of the world to acquire nukes, anything further is plausible conjecture. It is believed that it developed the first working bomb prior to 1968. Some people believe that the 1967 Arab-Israeli war was ignited by the Arabs' fear that Israel was on the brink of going nuclear. As it turns out, Israel may have already developed the bomb before that conflict started but chose to defend itself conventionally. Estimates on the quantity of Israel's nuclear weapons is thought to range from 65 to 400. It is most likely around 250.

Why does Iran need a nuclear bomb and will it get one?

There are two questions here. Why does Iran need a nuclear bomb? -- Iran does not NEED a nuclear bomb.

It would also be a symbol of Iranian power and a projection of Iranian influence and civilization. When will Iran have a nuclear bomb? -- The timeline for Iran gaining a nuclear weapon is unclear.
