The deal included inspections, and obviously Iran stopped their nuke program, or else they would have had nukes a decade ago.

Sorry they didn’t

Atomic watchdog says Iran not complying with nuclear safeguards

The UN-backed atomic watchdog passed a resolution on Thursday declaring that Iran is not complying with its obligations regarding nuclear non-proliferation.

Actually it’s the easiest part according to UN watchdog

60 percent is weapons grade

you are really ignorant on these topics

Wrong.
At 60% enrichment is just barely useable for reactor fuel, and it takes 90% enrichment for weapons.
You own link says that.
{...

• States with nuclear weapons typically use so-called weapons-grade HEU, which is typically defined as 90% HEU or above, to minimize weapons’ size. Smaller and lighter nuclear weapons are much easier to deliver; ballistic missiles in particular can only deliver highly miniaturized nuclear weapons.

What is uranium enrichment and how is it used for nuclear bombs? A scientist explains

You can make a bomb with lower than 90% enrichment, but then it become bigger, heavier, and less powerful.

Of course AFTER Trump withdrew from the deal and imposed illegal economic sanctions, Iran restarted their nuclear program.
The point is they stopped when Obama was president.

Um your link says that civilian enrichment is at 2 to 3 percent and a weapon can be made at as little as 20’percent

The deal allowed them to continue to enrich uranium

Just because we withdrew, largely due to their noncompliance and continued disruptions in the area, doesn’t mean other countries weren’t in the agreement

There is nothing illegal about the USA issuing sanctions on a foreign country

And of course if they are going to continue to build weapons grade uranium and engage in terror they are risking what happened to them

That’s there choice

You f around you find out

Really when is the supreme leader elected by the people??

The country of Iran is governed by a president.

{...
Early presidential elections in Iran were held on 28 June and 5 July 2024 following the death of incumbent president Ebrahim Raisi in a helicopter crash on 19 May.

Four candidates contested the first round of the election, in which Masoud Pezeshkian won 44%, Saeed Jalili won 40%, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf won 14% and Mostafa Pourmohammadi won less than 1% of the vote. Pezeshkian was the only reformist candidate on the ballot.
As no candidate won a majority in the first round, a run off vote was held on 5 July between Jalili and Pezeshkian, which the latter won with 53.7% of the vote. On 6 July 2024, the Ministry of Interior declared Pezeshkian the winner of the election, with Jalili conceding defeat shortly thereafter.

The "Supreme Leader" is more of a symbolic role.

Yes, it is illegal for any country to impose economic sanctions on civilian commerce of any other country.
It is a basic violation of individual civilian rights.

Holy shit you are stupid

No the Supreme Ruler runs everything

He can dismiss the President or ignore the legislature…Iran is a dictatorship

There was no ending, troll.

Yes there was
They surrendered all of their enriched uranium

The End

No congress has passed the laws allowing the president to issue sanctiions

When? Where did it go?

 

[Rigby5]

Um your link says that civilian enrichment is at 2 to 3 percent and a weapon can be made at as little as 20’percent

Wrong.
It said the lowest enrichment of 5% would require 70 cm ball of uranium, while with the normal weapons grade 90% enrichment would only require 10.5 cm ball of uranium.
So lower enrichments are not practical, since they have to be so much larger, heavier, and expensive.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

It was their money to begin with idiot.

We were simply returning it.

Why not pay the judgment the hostages won.

 

[Rigby5]

Economic sanctions on civilian commerce is a violation of the Geneva Conventions of 1906, which congress ratified into US law.
So Congress can not pass sanction legislation without being prosecuted by the Hague for war crimes.

Still no.

Yes that’s what your link said

You also thought that Iran was run by a president and not the supreme leader

You are clueless

Well why doesn’t The Hague prosecute our congress then?? Go for it

Also the Geneva Convention of 1906 didn’t have anything to do with economic sanctions but the conditions of the wounded on the field

Once again you highlight your ignorance

Obama gave Iran their own money that had been frozen because of their nuclear development

Once they ended their nuclear program
There was no justification to keep it

Only they didn't end it, did they? Obama was dumber than a baboon.

 

[Rigby5]

When? Where did it go?

Here is background info on the deal:
{...
Has Iran left the 2015 nuclear deal?

Although Iran has violated the deal since the Trump Administration abandoned it and reinstated sanctions in 2018, it has not formally left the agreement. Negotiations between China, France, Germany, Iran, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States to restore the agreement were underway for two years and were close to reaching a deal in August 2022 but they broke down. In the meantime, Iran has continued to walk back from its commitments under the agreement. In 2023, the United States and Iran again began unofficial talks, although both sides denied that they were pursuing an interim deal. In April 2025, Iran began negotiations with the the new Trump Administration in the U.S. to work towards a deal on its nuclear programme.

Is Iran complying with the 2015 nuclear deal?

Since July 2019, Iran has taken a number of steps that violate the agreement. Iran has increased its enrichment of uranium-235 to 60% and 20% instead of the 3.67% agreed to under the JCPOA and has exceeded the limit on its uranium stockpile agreed to under the JCPOA. It also has installed and operates centrifuges in excess of JCPOA limits and has re-started enrichment at the Fordow facility. In addition, while Iran continues to comply with its Comprehensive Safeguards Agreement with the IAEA, since February 2021, Iran stopped implementing the other monitoring measures agreed to in the JCPOA. Iran took some steps following a March 2023 agreement with the IAEA to increase inspections, but this still falls short of what is necessary to comply. In November 2024, IAEA Director General, Rafael Grossi, visited Iran and toured nuclear facilities at Fordow and Natanz where he visited the enrichment plants that are under IAEA safeguards.

Here is the deal details:
{...
Is Iran going to develop nuclear weapons now?

The United States and the IAEA continue to assess that Iran is not currently pursuing weapons-related activities. Steps towards the capacity to produce nuclear weapons are still very concerning, including Iran’s enrichment of uranium to higher levels and rejection of international inspections.

The excess enriched uranium Iran has was sold on the open market.
