    Not nukes. Just lots of conventional weapons. Before the 1977 revolution in Iran, the U.S. sold them a bunch ‘leagally’, then the U.S. (arguably) triggered the revolution there, and after the religious nut jobs took power, Regan sold them lots of weapons (non nuclear) illegally (against the arms embargo) in the Iran/contra affair.
