We are now talking about an enemy who doesn't care about death. If anything, they glorify it at all turns.
If Iran (or its supporters) gets the bomb, nothing will prevent them from wiping out Israel - and then coming after us - because they don't and won't care about reprisal. Hell, the Iranian PM publicly declares this every other day.
The real question - the scary one - is HOW many lives will be lost before we have to take them out for good?
