At best, it gains them a significant security blanket that changes - to the benefit of Iran - how diplomacy is handled and pressure is applied. Any nation and the "Internationalk Community" will have far less leverage to use against Iran.
Iran with The Bomb now hold significant additional sway amongst other neighboring countries - those countries will be forced to get a bomb and you have a nuclear arms race amongst the most unstable countries in the world. Unstable becuase of current government and unstable i that they have shown they can be toppled.
