Iran closes in on making a nuclear weapon

[rightwinger]

Iran didn't come this close to a nuclear weapon in a freaking year. The former president bought and paid for it with about a billion dollars in U.S. taxpayer cash in a deal that was so bad that it rose to the level of high crimes and misdemeanors.

Iran abandoned its nuclear program

Thanks to Trump, they are restarting it

You believed they abandoned the program and have created a nuclear weapon in 1 year's time?

You can't possibly be that ignorant.

It was confirmed that they abandoned their program

That program is starting up again under Trump

 

[rightwinger]

There was nothing PERMANENT about the nuclear arms deal. Their work was delayed for a period of years - about half of which have already elapsed.

No treaty is binding on the United States until ratified by the Senate. Hence, there never was a deal, w/r/t the U.S. For those of you Leftists who constantly rail about how Trump usurps so much power to himself, did it bother you when Soetoro pretended to enter into binding treaties?

How can anyone believe a commitment from a country such as Iran, which believes as a matter of national policy that commitments to infidels can be broken at any time? Verification is fine, but also delusional. If they wanted to continue enriching uranium, they surely have the resources to do so secretly.

As always, Trump did and continues to do the right thing. That does not make him "responsible" for the actions of global bad actors, any more than Open Borders make Democrats responsible for the crimes of the drug cartels.

No...wait a second!

Very true

Now the time is ZERO and they are free to start producing nukes again
Thanks to the Stable Genius

Iran was keeping to the treaty......before Trump screwed it up

Confirmed by who? They had to be given 24 days notice before inspections. Why on earth would they need that and not agree to surprise inspections? Hmm. I wonder. They signed a "deal" so they could get their billion dollars. I am sure they were spending that on the homeless in Tehran, not the military. No wonder Democrats would vote for Socialism. They have to be the most gullible people on the planet.

International inspectors who supervised the surrender of enriched uranium and the dismantling of centrifuges

24 hour notice was only required on military bases where Iran did not want review of classified areas
The money they received was their own money

Now, Trump said he would get a better deal....where is it?

Confirmed by Trump's own Director of National Intelligence....

Iran nuclear deal is working despite Trump's withdrawal, U.S. national intelligence director says

The 2015 Iran nuclear agreement has effectively curbed the Persian Gulf nation's nuclear ambitions, according to U.S. Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats.

"We continue to assess that Iran is not currently undertaking the key nuclear weapons-development activities we judge necessary to produce a nuclear device," Coats told the Senate Intelligence Committee on Tuesday. "Iran's continued implementation of the JCPOA [Joint Comprehensive Plan of Actions] has extended the amount of time Iran would need to produce enough fissile material for a nuclear weapon from a few months to about one year."​

Yep. Not that any of this would sink in with the benighted goofs, but thanks anyway. To this day, they have yet to understand that the JCPOA wasn't a treaty between the U.S. an Iran. Unsurprising, since they have a big mortgage on their brain and their integrity ditched, not to mention a sacred vow to the Dear Leader to learn nothing factual. Ever. Amazing creatures, those.

Anyway, what the Iranians are doing is actually quite smart, gradually and reversibly shortening their break-out time, thereby demonstrating not just they have teeth, but also to a Western world that is worth as much as their word how well the JCPOA was working. That's enough to be felt as a step on everybody's toes, but not enough to spark an arms race in the Middle East. One might say, it is eminently measured and rational. The contrast to the behavior of the Western world could hardly be starker.

The carnival barker and his know-nothing sycophants couldn't be more irate - about that which their camp brought about. ... Okay, I first thought that would be ironic. It isn't.

Between that and starting an arms race with Russia, Donald J. Trump has made this planet a significantly more dangerous planet to inhabit.

So in other words we need to nuke them.

Trump is a strong leader who can force Iran to the negotiating table and force them to sign an agreement regulating their nuclear capacity.

Yep, and Iran is not stupid. They know they will get the agreement back after Trump is gone. It will just take a few meetings, that will result in the same terms, with Iran getting the sanctions eased even more than before.

For that matter, the new Democratic President will reverse Trumps executive orders in a week. All of them.

The day I'm waiting for? Obamacare is still the law and Trump is in jail. They're going to lose it then.

Same goes for most of Trumps legacy

Rejoin Paris Climate accords
Repeal Trump tax cuts
Reinstate environmental protections
Rejoin Iran Nuclear deal
Tear down the wall

That would bring about the end of America as we know it.

In May 2018 Trump removed the U.S. from the Iranian nuclear agreement, or JCPOA, which permanently barred Iran from making a nuclear weapon. Trump replaced the agreement with harsh language, threats, and stringent economic sanctions.

Trump's strategy has not worked. Gradually, Iran has been following the example Trump set, violating the JCPOA. In addition, Iran has mined and captured ships, destroyed the largest oil refinery in the world, even shooting down a very sophisticated American aircraft.

She has now taken another step in that direction.

ABC News reports, "The nuclear deal limited Iran to using only 5,060 first-generation IR-1 centrifuges. Ali Akbar Salehi, the head of Iran's nuclear program, said that Tehran is now operating 60 IR-6 advanced centrifuges in violation of its atomic deal with world powers. That's double the amount previously known."

In addition, Salehi said, "Iran is working on a the prototype called an IR-9 that would be 50-times faster than the first-generation IR-1s allowed under the accord."

It's complicated, but by starting up these advanced centrifuges, Iran further cuts into the one-year time limit that experts estimate Tehran would need to have enough material to build a nuclear weapon, if it chose to pursue one.

Iran has said its centrifuge decision is a direct result of U.S. President Donald Trump's withdrawal from the agreement more than a year ago.

Thank you, Mr. President.

Can a President be removed from office for being incompetent and a threat to our national security ... actually, the security of the planet?

https://abcnews.go.com/Internationa...an-announces-violations-nuclear-deal-66734863 assisted me in this report.

The Iranian government would not agree to let the US inspectors have unfettered 24/7 access to all known and suspected facilities. Therefore the nuclear deal was nothing but birdcage liner.
