The USA intelligence people testified Iran wasn't building nukes, so who to believe?
Then what are these facilities?
Would American intelligence reveal that they know they're building nukes if they had that information?
You can refine uranium for power. Prior to trump breaking deals the Iranians had very low potent uranium. Mostly made up of 3.25 refinement. USA had dropped sanctions in agreement for not processing uranium past 20%. That was fine till trump got in power and broke the deal. Then they started refinement up to 60%. So there could be potential to further refine uranium over 90% purity to make weapons, but the amount they had was tiny, till trump fucked the deal
I totally agree trump fucked the deal. He's an absolute narcissist. He wants to tear down anything from Democrats. He wants to put his name on everything.
But at the end of the day, I'm kind of rooting for him here. I'm hoping this all blows over quickly and we're in a world where Iran's ability to develop nuclear weapons is crippled
Yeah cause the generations of Iranian children to come will just shrug and say “big Daddy America was correct to take away our stuff”
What's the alternative? Is that a regime who vocally says they will kill my children are allowed to get nukes?
That I should be ok with that because peace and love and hugs?
“Allowed”
Sorry daddy.
What's the problem with your understanding of allowed here?
You think it's their choice lol
I seriously doubt its all going to blow over. No retailiation by Iran sends a signal of " bomb us anyone, we don't fire back "
For sure, but Iran doesn't have many options do they? I think by blow over, I mean they'll retaliate in the way these countries do. They will signal their attack loudly and early. USA and Israel will have time to prepare. Iran attacks. America says fuck you and does a return. Iran again does another attack with a huge signal to say look we're retaliating. Then it's all back to business as usual. Everybody gets to say they did something and they're all big bad boys.
From a friend that has connections there, some Iranians welcomed the assaults because they want their current leader removed. And I'm sure USA would love to install a leader there again.
That's what I'm hearing of too. I'll honestly admit if Trump pulled this move and it leads to a regime change. Fuck I'll give it to him as a ballsy move that worked. I would think at this point if it works, and I were to deny the victory I would be doing it just because I don't like Trump and I think that's something I don't want to do just out of spite.
