"Iran with nukes is more geopolitically stable situation than Iran without nukes."

This is one of the most wrong things anyone has ever said. If Iran successfully develops a nuclear weapon, it would almost certainly compel its regional rivals, namely Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Egypt, to pursue their own nuclear weapons to maintain a balance of power. A Middle East with multiple nuclear states is a nightmare scenario, dramatically increasing the chances of miscalculation or nuclear use.

Iran with nukes would almost certainly act far more aggressively just like Russia has with Ukraine.
