A top official from the Biden administration has said that he is supportive of President Donald Trump’s attack on Iran from June of last year and suggested that Joe Biden may have done the same if he had been elected to a second term in office. Amos Hochstein, senior energy adviser to Biden within the State Department, said that the Biden administration had modeled similar scenarios to last…

A strategic approach to minimize the chance of nuclear proliferation by a bunch of religious nuts would be potentially the right thing to do. I don’t know as I don’t know the details.
The religious nuts who have nukes are American and Israelis. There is no evidence that Iran was intending to build nukes
The Americans certainly are religious nuts with nukes now under trump. I don’t think they were nuts under Biden. Not that they weren’t evil in many ways, but not religious nuts.
Iran had facilities buried in bunkers specifically for purifying uranium to build nuclear weapons. I don’t see how that can be interpreted in any way that they weren’t trying to build nukes. They could have got uranium for power from other places.
The usa and israeli inteligences would knew about it during Obama and Biden. You are simply repeating netenyahu and trump bullshit.
Pakistan is ruled by religious nuts to they are not launching nukes.
What bullshit am I repeating? Of course everyone has known Iran was working on nukes for a long time. Isreal has bombed their facilities before. Obama and the EU has made deals to slow them down.
The difference here is that trump is a moron and blew up the Iran deal and then allowed Isreal to persuade him to attack. It probably has slowed down Iran’s ability to build a bomb, but it will certainly increase their motivation. And it’s fucked up the world economy (although a silver lining there will be even more of a push for renewables going forward).
Every knows that Iran was not building nukes
They clearly were. They had centrifuges for exactly that. And why wouldn’t they? Trump blew up the deal, and with the U.S. attacking them it would be the only way for them to be safe (see N Korea).
Not true. The inteligence during Obama , biden, the first and second trump that they are not building nukes. According to Netenyahu iran was two weeks away from nukes for 30 goddamn year, why iran still not have them?
They have been purifying Uranium. They have not done the last stage when it becomes weapons grade. And that’s because they know they’d then get bombed. The West doesn’t know exactly what they’re doing in their nuclear development bunkers so Iran could start developing an actual bomb and it wouldn’t take very long; they know what to do - hence the ‘two week’ claim, which is an exaggeration at best and often a complete fabrication at the time, but not totally implausible. Obama made a deal for them not to make the bomb, because he knew they could, not that they had already done so. After the last bombing of their bunkers by trump which were by most accounts fairly ineffective, who knows if they actually started purifying to weapons grade? Honestly why wouldn’t they if they were going to get bombed regardless. If they could pull off a nuke test and claim believably that they had more nuke rockets ready to go, the U.S. would have to leave them alone. Of course, I wouldn’t believe anything trump, the U.S. government or Isreal says about it.
