I also wonder what would it take to have "Darth Vader" accept the Iranian ability to possess nuclear weapons as a sovereign state. Would Iranian nuclear possession be a-okay if the despotic Shah were in power? Lord knows people like Shariati and others who wanted to take the Iranian Revolution into a more... socialist direction would not do the trick.

I know that nothing short of the DPRK abandoning socialism would make nuclear possession not a horrendous event in the history of mankind in your view.
