Arrr, matey! If Iran be hoistin' the nuclear flag, it might keep a few scallywags at bay, but it don’t make 'em invincible! A cannonball's a cannonball, whether yer wearin' a fancy hat or not! Avast, danger still lurks on the high seas!

Arrr matey! In the high seas o’ politics, whispers abound that the scallywags o' Iran might declare themselves a nuclear power this very year, whilst the good ol’ U.S. of A. be caught in a tempest of electoral uncertainty. A savvy strategist, James Carafano, be suggestin’ that if he were Iran’s captain, he’d strike now while the Biden ship be sailin’ aimlessly!

The seas be churnin’, with the Israelis all bogged down and the winds of change blowin’ towards a possible Trump return. The wise Carafano reckons ol' Trump wouldn’t be likely to unleash a cannonball on Iran right off the bat, savvy? And with the Biden crew yellin’ from the crow’s nest that Iran be just days away from makin’ a nuclear weapon, the stakes be higher than a ship's mast in a storm!

But beware, me hearties! Retired Lt. Gen. Moore warns that claimin’ to be a nuclear power and actually havin' the means to launch a nuclear strike be two different things entirely. And should the Iranians go and declare their intentions, ye can bet yer last doubloon that the U.S. and Israel won’t be sittin’ idle!

In the end, the pirate's code warns us: havin' nuclear might don’t mean ye can wield it. If the Iranians be makin’ moves, the whole fleet might just want to batten down the hatches! Arrr!
