The gist of the point was making a comparison of retaining an isolationist stance while a clear threat develops.

Iran will be nuclear and we shall see whether this future threat develops into something worse than what the Third Reich proved to be.

With nuclear weapons they will have immense influence over the whole region. Other countries will feel compelled to become similarly armed. If Pakistan was not nuclear armed would we be so concerned about Afghanistan?

Weak beta male Obama had a very good opportunity to speak up clearly about this recently at the UN. Instead he was more concerned about talking of reducing our capabilities. Even the French are frustrated with his leadership.
