The Iran Nuke Primer

[PoliticalChic]

It's not exactly easy to hide industrial scale enrichment activities.

For starters, they'd have to get access to uranium and we had active monitoring of their sources. The entire fuel cycle was being monitored.

A big problem is that people just don't understand how that works.

Keep licking the Democrat boots, dope.

 

[Blaster]

No. There was a permanent ban on the development of nuclear weapons.

Comedy Gold!

What a maroon.

He couldn't be more of a Democrat.

Keep licking the Democrat boots, dope.

Just living in reality. The proof is in the pudding.

When Trump went to "obliterate" their nuclear program, what did he bomb?

The same sites that IAEA inspectors had full access to.

That's where Iran was enriching uranium. Not some random military sites.

2. Democrat Jimmy Carter installed the current regime in Iran.

Ayatollah Khomeini arrived in Iran on 1st Feb. 1979 - flown in and paid for by France on a chartered Air-France 747.

He assumed control of the Iranian revolutionary movement and it's provisional government on 11th Feb. 1979.
The Iran hostage crisis began on November 4, 1979, due to the USA having refused to extradite the Shah (arrived on October 22, 1979 in the US) and US$ billions he had taken with him. Therefore Ayatollah Khomeini was already 8 month in charge before the hostage crisis.

Your post and all the other points are - pure bullshit.

When will MAGA dolts ever "read and learn" FACTS about history?? - NEVER since it would destroy their fantasies and inherent bias.

Now I remember you......the most disreputable imbecile on this board, lying to blame the generals, and then Trump, when Democrat Biden gave this to the enemy:


This is what your party abandoned to the enemies of America:

the Taliban seized way more ScanEagle drones than the government is saying they did. There is no accounting on the number of crashed units.

Direct Quote from Report
“This also raises concerns about how NAVAIR justified procuring 105 ScanEagle vehicles totaling over $32 million and spare parts totaling over $52 million, and future planned procurements.”

This week, the SIGAR audit on the $174 million drone loss disappeared from its website. Here is the link that was removed.

Here is a breakdown of estimated vehicle costs:

• Armored personnel carriers such as the M113A2 cost $170,000 each and recent purchases of the M577A2 post carrier cost $333,333 each.
• Mine resistant vehicles ranges from $412,000 to $767,000. The total cost could range between $382 million to $711 million.
• Recovery vehicles such as the ‘truck, wrecker’ cost between for the base model $168,960 and $880,674 for super strength versions.
• Medium range tactical vehicles include 5-ton cargo and general transport trucks were priced at $67,139. However, the family of MTV heavy vehicleshad prices ranging from $235,500 to $724,820 each. Cargo trucks to transport airplanes cost $800,865.
• Humvees – ambulance type (range from $37,943 to $142,918 with most at $96,466); cargo type, priced at $104,682. Utility Humvees were typically priced at $91,429. However, the 12,000 lb. troop transport version cost up to $329,000.
• Light tactical vehicles: Fast attack combat vehicles ($69,400); and passenger motor vehicles ($65,500). All terrain 4-wheel vehicles go up to $42,273 in the military databases.

If you thought the Joe Biden Afghanistan disaster was bad now – things are going to get much worse. Joe Biden supplied the Taliban terrorist organization and their Islamist accomplices with billions of dollars worth of US armaments. Rather than destroying the equipment before leaving the...

Another TOTAL bullshit story

The above mentioned military inventory was held by the ANSDF - the regular forces of the Afghan government.
Whilst TACO screwed up 20 years of Afghanistan, as well as defining the "ridiculous" time line for the US withdrawal.

TACO subsequently cut a deal directly with the Taliban, that freed 5,000 imprisoned fighters, allowing them to return to the battlefield to regain strength, and put the Taliban in its strongest military position in 20 years.

1.Dr. Abbas Milani is he Director of the Iranian Studies Program at Stanford University. His recent book is “The Shah,” is based on ten years studying the archives of the United States and of Britain. The following is from his recent lecture on that subject.
Book Discussion Shah Video C-SPAN.org

a. How is it that the Shah has been replaced by a more repressive, more brutal, more corrupt, less competent Islamic regime? The fact is the Ayatollah has more power than any king, and claimed to speak for God; his followers said “going against Khomeini is going against God himself.” Note the misogynist cosmology in that statement.

b. "When the Iranian revolution came to power, with the help of Democratic President Jimmy Carter,the Ayatollah Khomeini killed more human beings (about twenty thousand) in two weeks than had been killed by the Shah during his entire thirty-eight years.Khomeini followed this by sending hundreds of thousands of Iranians to die in the Iran-Iraq war, as martyrdom was needed to resurrect the Islamic Empire."

You’re claim that my party “guaranteed” them nuclear weapons is false and demonstrates your lack of understanding of a complex issue.

Worse is your willingness to listen.

1.“32,000 people were killed over a relatively short period of time,” Trump told reporters, saying, “I feel very badly for the people of Iran.”
Estimates from doctors based outside Iran range the death toll up to 33,000 or more, according to The Guardian."

2. While Trump has used this human life loss as reason to upend the Iranian Mullahs, Democerats Obama and Biden were the greatests supporters and investors in Iran and its nuclear program.


3. Consistent with that Democrat view, and the very opposite of Western Civilization, when I have asked a number of Democrat posters their view on the sanctity of human life, every one has run and hid.


4. AI Overview
Since the 1973
Roe v. Wade decision, over 63 million legal abortions have occurred in the United States. While annual numbers peaked around 1990, recent estimates show over 1 million abortions in 2024.
Both domestically and in foreign policy, the value of human life is the defining difference between the Left (Democrats) and the Right.


5. Trump must carefully consider what the attack on Iran will do to the price of oil, and therefore gasoline, and what will happen to his claims of affordibility, and his chances in the midterms.

Democrat Obama's deal set a time when Iran could have nuclear weapons.

That's a guarantee, moron.

This is a fundamental misunderstanding of the deal.

By this logic, one could say Trump moved the time for that “guarantee” up by 7 years.

What you’re talking about is that the deal expired after 10 years. If that’s bad, then cancelling the deal after 3 years is worse.

Shut your silly MAGA trap.

Carter had NOTHING to do with the Ayatollah being installed as the interim government leader on Feb. 1979.
Citing some books and supposed killings under Khomeini - doesn't change that FACT.

Now trot off - silly MAGA girl.

I can never decide whether you are more a fool, or more a liar.


Which is it? Both?



1. Khomeini and his allies in Iran actually reached out to the Americans, to whom he promised a) to hold the country together, calming the unrest, b) to keep the communists out, and c) to keep the oil flowing. That’s all Carter had to hear! Carter then intercedes with the Iranian military on behalf of Khomeini and in opposition to Bakhtiar, and that the US would not support any coup in favor of the Shah. In 1991, Bakhtiar was assassinated.


a. Carter believed that Khomeini would support democracy, contrary to all that he had written while in exile. In over 110 interviews he gave in Paris in the three months prior to re-entering Iran, he never mentioned the rule of the ‘juriscouncil,’ the clerical guardianship, i.e., the regime in control currently. He promised that he would retire to a life of study, and “…leave all powers to the people.”


b. The first constitution that was written was democratic! Khomeini flew to Iran in February, ’79. Within weeks he began to marginalize democracy forces. Soon a new constitution was written with the rule of the guardians at its center. November 4, of ’79 was the attack on the US embassy and taking of the hostages for 444 days.

Dr. Abbas Milani is he Director of the Iranian Studies Program at Stanford University. His recent book is “The Shah,” is based on ten years studying the archives of the United States and of Britain. The following is from his recent lecture on that subject.

<em>The Shah</em>




Carter viewed Khomeini as a religious holy man in a grass-roots revolution rather than the founding father of modern terrorism. U.N. Ambassador Andrew Young said, “Khomeini will eventually be hailed as a saint.” Iran Ambassador William Sullivan, said, “Khomeini is a Gandhi-like figure.” Adviser James Bill proclaimed in a Newsweek interview in 1979 that Khomeini was not a mad mujahid, but a man of “impeccable integrity and honesty.”

. .....in one more stunning example of naïveté and poor judgement, Democrat Jimmy Carter installed the blood thirsty Khomeini in place of the Shah.

"When the Iranian revolution came to power, with the help of Democratic President Jimmy Carter, the Ayatollah Khomeini killed more human beings (about twenty thousand) in two weeks than had been killed by the Shah during his entire thirty-eight years. Khomeini followed this by sending hundreds of thousands of Iranians to die in the Iran-Iraq war, as martyrdom was needed to resurrect the Islamic Empire."
