Unfortunately in reality this is considered wishful thinking by every competent intelligence agency (not just Israel, and not just western). I suppose you could say North Koreas pursuit of nuclear weapons is likely a deterrence strategy. Kim Jong-un and the ayatollahs are afraid primarily of their own oppressed citizens, it is not a difficult concept to grasp. Certainly the threat of terrorism and refugees is a global one as Europe is slowly coming to realize. So is the threat of nuclear proliferation, especially when it comes to unstable regimes.
