I'm not sure the bomb gets them anything right now. There would likely be even harsher penalties (including military) that would just set them back further. Their Arabian enemies don't have them so what's the point?
Any why should this make negotiation easy? From their perspective the bigger a perceived threat only bolsters their position to get more from a deal.
What's the difference between forcefully destroying their ability or limiting it through inspections or other means? Centrifuges are just material and can be rebuilt.
