Expected response from you. You do know you can actually criticize the man you voted for when it calls for it.
Maybe. Iran has historically turned to Russia and China to bring in experts to help their nuclear program move forward. They have bought equipment and weapons, not to mention technical expertise for running a nuclear program. My question would be, IF Iran were really trying to make an atomic weapon, which I still do not believe one word that comes out of that lying dirtbag Netanyahu's mouth, but if they were, why wouldn't they enlist the aid of the Chinese to do something that Iran has never ever done before? Enriching Uranium is not just something you look up on the internet and get at-home instructions for.
I’ve said he’s not my first choice. But to just trash him for this is ridiculous, and the other guy saying we better hope there wasn’t Chinese in the nuke sites? wtf? There’s plenty to trash Trump about, but this isn’t one of them.
I don’t even hate this strike if they were truly weeks away from break out (and I have serious doubts about that). A fully religious regime who sees dying for the cause as a privilege with the ultimate weapon and their ultimate enemy within range, and one they could share with Hamas for example, is something to be prevented. What I do hate is that had they not torn up the agreement years ago we wouldn’t even be in this precarious position likely, or at worst if we were here we would have the absolute moral high ground and it would be Iran vs. the world. Now it’s Iran and much of the Arab world against the U.S. and Israel, and if Iran attacks Israel we are almost obligated to defend them, especially since we helped escalate things. Asymmetric might be their only option and I work in a vulnerable building near DC, so bring back the post 9/11 worries I guess for a while.
The IAEA has said Iran had advanced from 20% to 60% enrichment. Iran would have every reason to have nukes. Once you are in the club you are basically untouchable.
I doubt any of the Arab world is crying tears for Iran. They can’t admit it out loud but they are happy with Iran’s demise.
We have covered this multiple times, but having enriched Uranium and the capacity for making a atomic weapon capable of delivering it are 2 totally separate things. Also, 60% enrichment means not very much.
You could have just posted that you dont understand how the world works and it would make more sense. A nuclear Holocaust would not bother you? You think that your world would just be peachy? Good lord man
Good point made that the Iranian refineries are all located on an island in the Strait and by not attacking them, they are preserving the Iranian economy going forward.
What transpires between Iran and Israel is of no business of mine. Period. If the US would not have been green lighting the bombing of Iran, you better believe that this war would not have started. But no, far too many people love the thought of death and destruction because "those people" are bad. Do you feel we need to bomb N Korea? Unlike Iran, they actually have nuclear weapons and have threatened to use them. Should we attack Pakistan or India? Unlike Iran, they have nuclear weapons and both have threatened to unleash them.
