Can a weapons program be rebuilt?

 

[Vol8188]

No I am not missing that. I am pointing out that when we stopped their nuclear program in 2025, we are back in greater numbers in 2026.

YOU need to explain why you think this time will be any different? I am tired of the forever wars, and the only good thing so far is that Trump hasn't turned this into a ground war...yet.

In 2025 they did not sign a treaty to end their nuclear program nor did they turn over their uranium.

Can a weapons program be rebuilt?

From "obliteration" to "imminent threat" in less than 9 months?

Those sites were obliterated, but the enriched uranium was still obviously viable as it was whisked away on Russian intelligence.

It's just about getting it into the right interphase and having more than one ready when they decided to launch.

The public always jumps to one side or the other. That's by design. Truth is Russia and China are weary of Iran, but they're still a means to an end against the US. Even though they sell cheap oil to China- don't be confused as to why China is also weary of religious zealots owning WOMD.

 

[CobbVol]

yeah, the ones we gave/funded them. doesn't really count in my books.

Yep, wrong color WMD

Grossi said the three sites at Natanz, Fordow and Isfahan bombed by the US are central to uranium processing, conversion and enrichment, but stressed that Iran’s nuclear program extends well beyond them.

“Iran has much more than these three facilities,” he said. “It has a very developed nuclear program, with research activities and many other sites.”

He cited Iran’s operating nuclear power plant at Bushehr and plans for additional reactors, including projects with Russia, adding: “Work continues in all these areas.”

The IAEA has long sought answers from Iran over past nuclear activities and the whereabouts of undeclared nuclear material, issues Grossi has said cannot be resolved without access to relevant sites.

Don't most large militaries train others? For example, wouldn't the US train the Saudis?

“Iran has much more than these three facilities,” he said. “It has a very developed nuclear program, with research activities and many other sites.”

The White House didn't just claim that those three facilities were obliterated, though

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth: “Based on everything we have seen — and I’ve seen it all — our bombing campaign obliterated Iran’s ability to create nuclear weapons. Our massive bombs hit exactly the right spot at each target and worked perfectly. The impact of those bombs is buried under a mountain of rubble in Iran; so anyone who says the bombs were not devastating is just trying to undermine the President and the successful mission.”

President Trump: “Monumental Damage was done to all Nuclear sites in Iran, as shown by satellite images. Obliteration is an accurate term! The white structure shown is deeply imbedded into the rock, with even its roof well below ground level, and completely shielded from flame. The biggest damage took place far below ground level. Bullseye!!!”

Israel Atomic Energy Commission: “The devastating US strike on Fordo destroyed the site’s critical infrastructure and rendered the enrichment facility inoperable. We assess that the American strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, combined with Israeli strikes on other elements of Iran’s military nuclear program, has set back Iran’s ability to develop nuclear weapons by many years. The achievement can continue indefinitely if Iran does not get access to nuclear material.”

IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir: “I can say here that the assessment is that we significantly damaged the nuclear program, and I can also say that we set it back by years, I repeat, years.”

Iran’s Nuclear Facilities Have Been Obliterated — and Suggestions Otherwise are Fake News

The world is far safer after President Donald J. Trump’s highly successful, decisive precision strikes against the Iranian regime’s key nuclear

because the treaty in place before stopped them?

for someone who really has a problem with Iran, you sure do trust them a lot.

[LouderVol]

more like we gave them the weapons during their fight with Iran, and just let Iraq keep them so we had a convenient excuse later to invade Iraq.

I know you guys don't claim to be the same level of 4D 6D 12D chess champions that Trump is, but yall really need to learn how to recognize patterns.

 

[NashVol11]

They shouldn't be attacking hotels or embassies, but we also have troops in hotels there

Probably. My take is they were referring to training Hamas, Hezbollah, and Houthis terrorist groups.

He’ll twist whatever way he needs to when he decides what opinion to take in the morning

 

[appvol]

Did you even know who Bret Stephens was before you posted an op-ed as evidence of US success in Iran?

It’s no worse than the stuff you post just so you can always seem right.

 

[hog88]

We’ve trained several terrorist ourselves.

If they’re attempting to rebuild, I don’t really care how “imminent” of a threat it may or may not be

 

[Vol8188]

The previous treaty openly allowed enrichment.

for someone who really has a problem with Iran, you sure do trust them a lot.

That’s retarded. Obviously you can have third party inspections and satellite surveillance

Iran could recover some uranium, but Israel is watching, Israeli official says

Israel believes a U.S. strike buried the enriched uranium under an Iranian facility, the official told reporters in Washington.

hey iirg anyone hungry?

 

[EasternVol]

I wonder if he's met Pete Hegseth or Paula White.

 

[BeardedVol]

So you are also in favor of preemptive strikes on North Korea?

Given that they are as much more of an imminent nuclear threat than Iran ever has been.

 

[rikberry31]

"Reeked" havoc.

Also, calling everybody in Gaza Philistines while they're being attacked by Edomites. Rich!

There is no real Palestinians, they were named that as a shot at Israel.
