Iran Can Produce Fissile Material For Bomb In 'One Or Two Weeks': Blinken
Iran is capable of producing fissile material for use in a nuclear weapon within "one or two weeks," US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Friday.
Remember when Obama got Iran to give up refining nuclear material then Trump fucked it up horribly?
Pepperidge farm remembers.
And Biden did not go back to the deal. Both Biden and Trump serve Israel
Biden tried to restart the deal back in 2021, and has been trying ever since.
However, it turns out that the US is not the only party involved in international treaties. We can't just pick up the ball and go home mid game, then come back in a year with a new coach and expect everyone to continue playing like nothing happened
The original deal was a difficult achievement on its own. Now, we need to not only repeat that, but also deal with the fact that Iran does not trust us to follow through with our end of the deal. Overcoming that needs good negotiation, and a lot of concessions we did not want to make.
This is why administrations of both parties have historically upheld deals made by the opposing party that they didn't like. Unilaterally breaking deals every 4 years because of who wins an election makes the US a non-credible partner in negotiations. You can't just wave a wand and fix that.
Look, it's the bi-annual "Iran is 6 months away from getting nukes" headline. I wonder which intelligence service came up with this (again).
Yup, I recall seeing news about Iran being mere days away from nuclear weapons for literally decades now.
Some analyst has a repeating calendar event labeled IRAN NUKE STORY
Thanks trump.
Iran should be single mindedly pursuing this objective
Should have started (and hope they did) as soon as Gaza popped off.
I think they started at the "axis of evil" speech
man even americans are starting to regurgitate this isreali party line; gazans are so fucked.
Is it an Israeli line? I don't doubt that Israel says it, but it seems to me like Iran developing nukes is a pretty rational response to America ditching the agreement. I certainly don't like a government like Iran's having those weapons, but it's very understandable for it to want them and the country has the capacity to make it happen
I certainly don’t like a government like Iran’s having those weapons
Broken clocks can still be right.
Inspectors from the UN found enrichment activity was starting to exceed 84% where 90% is the target for bomb making. 60% is the level they are attempting to enforce.
Also this is February 2023, so you’d suspect they’ve made more progress since then.
The Middle East is developing deterrence against foreign threats right before us and the US can’t stop it
If Blinken doesn’t like it, he can always start with his bosses at Tel Aviv and their nuclear weapons
This brings me back to the Bush years.
Also makes me thing of the movie ‘Wag the Dog.’
Oh great. Starting a war is a classic move for embattled presidents
Cool, how industrious of them!
Inshallah
good, Iran needs nukes. especially when a significant portion of the US government holds the opinion "we should nuke Iran".
I mean if you were the Iranian leader and a) saw what the US did to Iraq and Libya and b) saw the total impunity that Israel has in the West to conduct mass killings on civilians, wouldn't you want a nuclear deterrent?
Trying to get us into another war eh
This again?
I hope so
All this talk about iran sounds like another beating the drums for an iraq war.
Same as it ever was (ever meaning the past 2 years atleast).

It would still take months to build a detonator though.
USA being the little bitch of the Zionist Illegal State. Seeking conflicts that are not theirs
Even drunk Pakistani ISI knows this isn't true.
We need 4 more years of Joe!
