Iran is not currently a nuclear threat to Israel, especially considering Israel already possesses a significant nuclear arsenal (estimated at 150–200 warheads). The real issue, they claim, is that certain U.S. political figures and commentators want to maintain Israel's nuclear monopoly and use Iran’s potential nuclear ambitions as a justification for military action.

They point out that Iran has not yet decided to build a nuclear weapon, though they have been increasing their capability. Pressure from the West, particularly the U.S., may be pushing Iran toward that decision. The speaker criticizes figures like Senator Tom Cotton and commentator Mark Levin, accusing them of having a "lust for war" with Iran and deliberately escalating tensions without acknowledging Israel's nuclear power or past opportunities for diplomacy.

The speaker defends the Obama-era Iran nuclear deal (JCPOA), arguing that it successfully limited Iran’s nuclear program and could have continued to prevent weaponization had the U.S. remained in it. They believe the real goal of some war-hawk politicians is regime change in Iran, not non-proliferation.

They emphasize that such conflict would be devastating for all sides—Iranian, American, and Israeli alike—and insist that diplomacy should prevail over aggression. Ultimately, they call for a more honest, balanced understanding of global affairs, free from simplistic "good vs. evil" narratives.
