My personal hot take: the middle east will be much more peaceful when Iran has nuclear weapons.

I trust them more than Israel with them. I also would say that Israel is a fundamentalist religious state with nuclear weapons, hell so is Pakistan and I’d go so far as to say what has kept the conflict between Pakistan and India from exploding into even worse violence and outright war is that they both have nukes.

After this debacle I would be surprised if Iran doesn’t have nuclear weapons in a decade or less.
