Well when US threatened Iran its after fighting two wars in Iraq and AFG.
As for Pakistan, well that is a good point Pakistani leadership capitulated because they succumbed, they thought it was a reasonable move to just ally with US rather than fighting US. As for Iran, US doesn't even give option to Iran for an alliance, it's just your the enemy.
So it's slightly different political scenario...
Well, they didn't give Pk an option too, remember "either u r with us or against us". Having all the weapons doesn't matter until one has the "jigara" to stand up against a more stronger opponent even with bare hands. In my books Iran scores more points in this regards, hence stronger mentally.
No Muslim country is stronger militarily than the west or China or Russia or India or Israel, so in crunch situation mental strength counts as much as physical.
