The moment Iran shows they have a nuke, the US will enter peace talks and Israel will be forced by the US to stop its imperialist expansion and terror campaigns.
The reason Pakistan isn’t a smoldering crater is because they have nukes. The reason India is only loosely used as slave labor by the US instead of directly is because they have a nuke. The reason Korea isn’t fully occupied is because they have a Nuke.
When we had leaders who understood and valued soft power, sure. But that isn’t the way the USA is operating at this moment. Those other nations aren’t in the condition they’re in because of their nukes, it’s because it’s more profitable to keep things as they are.
Nukes are the epitome of hard power tho. There is very little need to understand anything apart from “if I bomb that country, they nuke me (or, in this case, israel)”. I’m sure the financial markets would not appreciate a nuclear war either, so the profit incentive is there too.

It’s more profitable to not have a nuclear exchange.
