The biggest problem with this whole Iran issue is that while the mainstream press seems to hang on every word the little idiot over there who spews about wiping Israel off the map and death to the infidels etc etc - he aint in charge over there - and the guy who is, well hes a good ole boy that actually gets along with Israel and the US and has pretty much supported us since the 70s. Rice is just playing up the issue in advance of the strike Israel is going to make - oh say around June this year if the IAEA doesnt figure out the nuclear mess - to make sure the US comes out smelling like a rose and doesnt rile up the Iraqiis next door (those people we put in power over there in the new democracy would crumble if we ever attacked Iran).
As far as Nuke proliferation - while I dont like any of it - I sure dont think the US has any right telling any other soverign nation what the fuck they can or cant do - and ought to just step back from the whole issue as most of the people in these other countries (well ok not the dictatorships - but then Irans not one of those) have enough common sense to regulate (as does the IAEA) what their own government is doing.
