I didn't say any were outside their hands. Given that Israel is geographically speaking quite small, it would make little sense to house an inventory of perhaps several hundred nukes so close they could all be taken out quickly.

Based on what? Their president has repeatedly said that he would happily martyr himself to sipe Israel off the map. The Iranians claim that their reactor is for energy, and even the UN is saying that's crap.
The Iranian President doesn't decide what the military does. He's primarily a mouthpiece, intended to stir the pot.

You did accidentally stumble upon one truth. You said Iran isn't going to nukeIsrael,and you are right. But it won't be, as you feel, because they will choose not to nuke Israel. It will be because Israel will not allow them to possess nukes.
Israel probably doesn't have much say in the matter. They may be able to set them back, but only regime change will stop Iran from finally building a nuke.
