Iran's nuclear constraints were more diplomatic than technical...Nuclear scientists say risk of country building a bomb has only grown

[shockedcanadian]

The more I read and hear, the more this war seems counter-productive. They replaced an older man with a younger guy who is more interested in the nuke. Iran is cutting off oil to increase the price signficantly and the Russian sanctions have been lifted. Trump took a huge risk getting involved in this, especially after the success already with the bombing of Irans nuke sites which he could have rode for his legacy. Iran must not have a nuke but with China and Russia supporting them and the West unwilling to confront China I do not know how this could ever be seen as a quick war without serious planning.already in place. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/iran-nuclear-bomb-united-states-war-9.7147664.
Nuclear weapons experts are warning that the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran, ostensibly launched to prevent the country from obtaining nuclear weapons, may have instead made an Iranian bomb more likely.

That is because prior to the war, Iran was held back not by technical constraints but diplomatic considerations, say two nuclear weapons experts who were involved in past U.S. efforts to sanction and contain the country.

Those diplomatic calculations have changed.

Experts, including Hillary Clinton, warned us that Iraq had WMDs in 2002. Now some are claiming the remnants of Iran's leadership corps will somehow develop a working nuclear bomb with less to work with and with Israel watching their every move.

The Bible is pretty plain that Iran will be one of the countries that attack Israel at the Battle of Armageddon.

And I bet you have no idea what caused them to change.

Wow, really, Snidely?

This is just occurring to you now?

Obama had it right. The best way to prevent an Iranian Nuke was to engage Iran diplomatically and allay their fears.

 

[Eman623]

In the days before the war Iranian negotiators said they had enough material for 11 bombs, and they were going to proceed to deployment and this was non-nrgotiable.

So they were going nuclear whether we attacked or not.

Actually, they said nothing of the sort.

They agreed to suspend all bomb-making activities when they talked to Jared and Witkopf.

But our Zionist Masters wanted a war and got a war.

Radical Muslim terrorists in Iran have sought to build a nuclear bomb for decades and if they still think they will still succeed after experiencing so much damage to their research facilities they must be getting dumber.

Don't believe lying mass-murdering terrorists who tell you they will stop mass-murdering people if given billions of dollars. Biden and Obama may have been foolish enough to believe the barbarians, but normal Americans have better sense than that.

As Ronald Reagan once said, "Trust, but verify".

JCPOA allowed inspections of Iranian Nuclear sites by the IAEA and monitoring by a committee of six nations (The US, China, Russia, Germany, France, and the UK).

Five of those nations were perfectly happy with Iran's compliance. The US was happy as well, until Cheeto Hitler decided that he didn't like JCPOA because Obama negotiated it, and Obama made fun of him once.

Now we are in a war, we have no way out, and nothing is keeping Iran from making bombs. In fact, if anything, they have pretty good motivation to make them now.

Guy, it doesn't take decades to build a nuclear bomb.

It only took the US 6 years, and it had never been done before. Russia pulled it off in less than 3. China did it in about 8.

We had a perfectly good agreement with Iran that allowed compliance with the NPT (which Iran has signed but the Zionist Entity has not).

Trump was right to question the reliability of the mass-murdering terrorists' promises and the failures of the JCPOA to address very serious issues.

3. Strategic Limitations of the Deal
Critics noted the JCPOA did not address Iran’s missile program or its network of regional proxies, leaving unresolved security concerns for the U.S. and allies RAND Corporation. It also included a “sunset” clause, meaning many restrictions would expire in 10–15 years, creating a long-term risk of renewed nuclear capability.

Just because civilized nations built nuclear bombs in record time does not mean the warlords in Iran could do it just as quickly.

Two issues.

First, the only thing the treaty was supposed to cover was nukes. Iran's support of its allies should have been handled in a separate treaty. We had no problem with Iran's proxies when they were helping us fight Al Qaeda and ISIS.

The only "allies" who were concerned were the Zionists and the various corrupt monarchies, who are more afraid of the populism of the Iranian regime than anything they could do tactically.

Are you saying they didn't have smart people, just like we did.

We're talking about 80-year-old technology.

Eventually Trump will have cost the world trillions in economic losses, the lives of U.S. soldiers and civilians, and all of our alliances just to get the JCPOA back into place. But he'll change the name to some cringe nonsense to feed to the cult.

Iran has made itself a target by openly admitting its attempts and successes in killing Americans and Jews is driven by inviolable religious convictions.

The Zionist Fascists insist on endlessly lying.... what a shock NOT....

 

[kyzr]

Obama had it WRONG.
1. You don't give terrorists $56,000,000,000 to develop nukes and ICBMs with.
2. You don't sign the JCPOA which only lasts 10-15 years, and which Iran cheated on

Trump has it right. Iran is not allowed to have nukes, period.
Its the JCPOA strictly enforced by military means.

 

[kyzr]

Actually, they said nothing of the sort.
They agreed to suspend all bomb-making activities when they talked to Jared and Witkopf.

That's a lie.
Jared and Witkopf offered Iran free nuclear fuel if they would not enrich uranium, Iran said no, they want a bomb, period. They admitted having 440 kg of 60% enriched uranium, weeks away from bomb grade.
The missiles that attacked Diego Garcia had a range of 3,000 miles, weeks away from ICBMs.

Trump decided that it was time to end Iran's nuclear ambitions. You're welcome.

Maybe Americans and Jews shouldn't be sticking their noses in their part of the world.
