Well how about this. They are run by homicidical certifiable nut cases who have no regard to life or human/civil rights. You don't think sensible law-abiding citizens can be trusted with a small handgun, yet you think homicidal dictators should have WMD? Our politicans may be enept, but they are moderate, accountable and for the most part (Galloway exluded) sane.
Ahmadinejad has already called for Israel to be "wiped off the map" (his exact words, although he later conceded to allowing them to move to another continent, how gracious of him). If he had the means, I can see him doing it, even it makes a martyr out of himself/his country. And a significant portion (maybe even a majority) of the 1.1billion muslims would support Iran on wiping out Israel.
