In this monologue, commentator Bob Fraser argues that Iran has been the world’s largest sponsor of global terrorism since the 1980s and is actively seeking nuclear weapons rather than civilian nuclear power. He condemns Iran’s recent tactics—blowing up oil fields, refusing diplomatic negotiations, and attacking neighboring allies—as evidence of a hostile, destabilizing regime. Fraser contends that removing or neutralizing Iran would have profound positive effects for future generations, emphasizing the rarity of long‑term strategic thinking in Western politics compared to China’s 20‑year resource‑locking approach. He frames the removal of Iran as a necessary step for global security and planetary well‑being, despite short‑term difficulties.

Let me just make a point that I don't think enough people are making. Iran is being put out of business. And Iran has been, since the 1980s, has been the largest sponsor of global terror in the world. And how much disruption has happened because of Iran. And they clearly have been attempting to get a nuclear weapon. And that is terrifying. I mean, how long would Israel last if they had a nuclear weapon? And you look at the way they're responding, they're literally willy-nilly blowing up oil fields. They're refusing to any diplomatic solutions. They refuse to even negotiate peace and by getting free nuclear fuel to drive nuclear power plants, which is ridiculous. Why would an oil-producing nation as wealthy as Iran want nuclear power? They don't want nuclear power. They want nuclear weapons. And they refused all those things and are now blowing up their neighbors, friendly allied neighbors, blowing up their infrastructure, killing their citizens. This is a regime that is a global, horrible, horrible regime and global disruption, global terror. So for them to be taken off the table, what impact is that going to have for our children and our children's children, for a nation like that to be disempowered and neutralized? And hopefully that will happen. And so very, very rarely do we think in terms of the long term, right? This is where the Chinese, without, you know, election cycles and without politicians really, they take a long-term view. They take a 20-year view and they lock up mineral supplies for 20 years and then choke the world of it, you know, because they have this long-term view. Very few of us have a long-term view. And so in the long term, my hope is that this becomes a very good thing for the planet, as difficult as it is. And what would it be for the world's largest terror player to be taken off the chessboard? Would be Very, very positive.
