The author argues that North Korea's latest nuclear test shows that they are pursuing a similar incentive-laden nuclear deal like the one the West offered Iran to change its behavior.

The author argues that because the nuclear deal failed to address Iran's aggressive foreign policy, it will likely be a point of contention during the lifetime of the deal, and even "a perfectly constructed nuclear agreement backed by sanctions and threats of force will eventually fall apart, leading either to war with Iran or an Iran armed with nuclear weapons"

The author argues that a new arms race is likely to erupt in the Middle East as Gulf States look to counter Iran's growing ballistic missile arsenal (that remains unchecked after the nuclear deal) which will in turn "incentivize Iran’s building of more missiles to overwhelm and defeat missile defenses, while also allowing Tehran to assert its need for Russia’s S-300 anti-air missile system."  

The authors argue that a military campaign against Iran's nuclear facilities would initiate a disastarous, decades long-war irrespective of technical capacity or whether Israel or U.S. initiates it.
