People did get what they voted for when they voted for Trump

[TimFitz]

Did that come to you in dream?

No, it’s pretty obvious.

 

[markef]

It was Irans own money

The issue that Congress and the courts took up was whether the illegitimate terrorist seditionists should be given the money, whether the Shah's relatives should be given the money, or whether victims of the illegitimate terrorist seditionists should be given the money. SCOTUS ruled that the money should not be given to the illegitimate terrorist tyrants but to the victims of the illegitimate terrorist tyrants.

Yesterday...........

"We don't need to have Iran open the Strait."

Today.........

"No ceasefire until Iran opens the Strait."

 

[TimFitz]

Import some? Damn dude, have you heard, they are under trade restrictions. Yes, under the Obama agreement Russia was processing uranium to eighty percent, shipping it to France, and France was creating the medical isotopes. Trump broke that deal.

And what if funny is you know absolutely nothing about Iran's Tehran Research Reactor.

The Tehran Research Reactor (TRR) is a 5MWt pool-type light water research reactor. The United States supplied the reactor to Iran in 1967, together with hot cells for the production of medical isotopes and 5.58kg of highly enriched uranium (HEU) fuel. 1 The reactor is housed at the Tehran Nuclear Research Center and is capable of producing up to 600 grams of plutonium annually.

Don’t confuse them with facts.

It never works.

They simply repeat what the man on their podcast claims, or what they get from anonymous posters on X.

 

[Winston]

Right.

So which countries are using U-235 for agriculture?

Come on, many countries. Here, get some for yourself.

Federal Register :: Request Access

www.nrc.gov

Neutron moisture meters, isotope tracing, all critical parts of modern agriculture, require radioactive materials and U-235 can be an important source for those materials.

 

[candycorn]

Yes,

Harris is not Potus and the border is secure.

ACCORDING to your blob, we have Iranian sleeper cells in the US....

And they are “keeping an eye on them.” If the border were secure, they wouldn’t be here...in fact why haven’t they been deported?

Great. Which countries are using U-235?

 

[Failzero]

Promises kept 83 / some off the wall shit 19 , I’ll take those numbers anytime over a Tater or a Harris or a Booker or a Newsom or a Jeffries

 

[Winston]

Great. Which countries are using U-235?

• There are about 220 such reactors operating, in 53 countries.
• They need far less fuel, and far less fission products build up as the fuel is used. On the other hand, their fuel requires uranium that is more highly enriched, typically up to 20% U-235, known as high-assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU), although some older ones still use 93% U-235.

Research Reactors - World Nuclear Association

Many of the world's nuclear reactors are used for research and training, materials testing, or the production of radioisotopes for medicine and industry. There are about 230 such reactors operating, in 54 countries.

Try to focus.

You claimed that U-235 was used to create new cotton varieties.

Show the countries that use enriched uranium for that agricultural purpose.

Or you could just admit you were wrong.

I am sorry you cannot follow. Iran has a research reactor, as do many countries. Iran's research reactor is old, it requires highly enriched uranium to produce medical isotopes and agricultural uses like soil moisture testing and gene targeting. For many years, we supplied Iran with the fuel. More recently, France was processing the fuel after further enrichment from Russia and delivering to Iran. The foundation of that fuel is U-235.

And like I said, what Iran has done with cotton has been impressive. They have developed strains that grow in saline soil, disease and pest resistant, high-yielding, with strands now approaching 30cm. Every cm is money in the bank.

But it really is all moot. Iran has every right to the entire nuclear fuel cycle. They signed the NPT. There really is no argument.

 

[Captain Caveman]

He told you repeatedly that Iran was never to have a nuke.

I've even heard democrats say the same thing.

The only way to prevent that is war.

Now I know that the Left is full of people who insist that diplomacy could have worked, insisting that the Obama agreement with Iran was the way out of this. However, after the Obama administration infused Iran with billions of dollars in their little agreement, 10/7 happened because Iran funds terrorism via Hamas and Hezbollah and the Houthis.

Iran swore the destruction of the US and Israel upon their revolution and that has never changed, and will never change.

Wanting diplomacy with Iran is akin to wanting diplomacy with Nazi Germany.

Would most people here have preferred to let Iran have a WMD, wait for them to use it, and then respond?

You can't deal with terrorists, the foolish believe they can.

 

[Independent thinker]

I guess you parochial right wingers need an excuse for our duplicity.

We are the aggressor, not Tehran.

So I guess you need to make up you own self righteous rationalizations.

Rant about Hezbollah, but know that we secretly backed them.

instead, we get empty pointless rants about an event 40 years ago in which no one was killed.

All in the face of the very obvious fact that your beloved fuhrer started a war with no plan, was warned but ignored the collateral risks, and clearly has no plan. And no courage.

So you have to recite your prejudices repetitively and do his chest beating for him.

I have to admit, I will be disappointed in Trump if he cuts and runs and leaves the Iranian regime in power. I say finish them off for good, no matter what it takes, no matter how long it takes, no matter what happens to the world economy. Better to get them now rather than wait until they have nukes and are an "imminent threat". That's what's stupid. People are just too naive if they believe Iran was not a threat. Hell, they murdered tens of thousands of their very own peaceful protesters and democrats claim Iran is not a threat to the world.

So, Iran doesn't need highly enriched uranium for their agriculture.
Iran doesn't need highly enriched uranium for cancer scans.
They don't need thousands of centrifuges under a mountain for medical isotopes.

No one has ever used highly enriched uranium for mutating cotton.

 

[Doc7505]

Actually the “left” has been pretty accurate regarding wars

Against
Vietnam
Iraq
Iran

Pro
Afghanistan

<~~~~~~~~~~>
Especially when it comes to Democrat presidents sending troops into battle.
Then again, wasn't it Lyndon B. Johnson that used the so-called Tonkin Bay incident as an excuse to increase the Vietnamese war?
Points of fact:

August 2, 1964: A real skirmish occurred between USS Maddox and North Vietnamese torpedo boats.​

August 4, 1964: The second reported attack — the one LBJ emphasized — did not actually happen, according to later analysis of radar, communications, and eyewitness accounts. It appears to have been a misinterpretation, not a deliberate fabrication.​

Even though the second attack was later shown to be mistaken, the Tonkin Resolution became the legal basis for Johnson’s major troop buildup starting in 1965. It effectively gave him and Democrats a blank check to expand the war without a formal declaration.
The Johnson Democrat administration presented the events as unprovoked, Congress responded with sweeping authority, and that authority enabled the rapid escalation that followed.
BTW, without prior Congressional approval.
