The issue isn't which countries have governments that are too unstable to have nukes. The problem is the odds of some crazy using them goes up with the number of governments which have this weapon. We are at far greater risk today then when we were in the cold war.

That being said Iran has to be stopped. Although North Korea seems to be using this technology as a show of power and a deterrent against perceived threats, Iran seems at least in its rhetoric seems to be more likely to use a weapon.
The real question about all this is what isn't Clinton's fault.
