Iran has much greater potential to be a regional powerhouse than Saudi Arabia. Sure, Saudi Arabia has loads of oil wealth, but Iran has a viable non-oil economy, and industrial base, a middle income economy built from the ground up, and a growing capacity to produce military armaments and equipment.
Israel just wants to be left alone. I think Iran will increasingly want to meddle in things.
Anyhow, I think the question is fairly well-answered for now. Israel won't be attacking Iran anytime soon.
