"A week ago Iran was very close to having a nuclear weapon. Now, Iran is incapable of building a nuclear weapon with the equipment they have, because we destroyed it." So, now that's been solved, we are never going to hear about Iran's nuclear threat again, right? Right?

Mark Kelly: None of us here heard about Iran having missile technology that was able to range the United States or being close to obtaining a nuclear weapon. The last thing we heard from the president was that the Iranian nuclear program was obliterated. That means completely eliminated. Gone.

🚨🇺🇸 VP VANCE: CEASEFIRE MEANS IRAN CAN'T BUILD NUKES—U.S. OBLITERATED PROGRAM "Well, we were actually working on that just as I left the White House to come over here. So that's good news that the President was able to get that across the finish line. I think what it means, Brett, is quite simple. First of all, the President, without knock on wood, having a single American casualty obliterated the Iranian nuclear program. We are now in a place where we weren't a week ago. A week ago, Iran was very close to having a nuclear weapon. Now Iran is incapable of building a nuclear weapon with the equipment they have because we destroyed it... our hope and our expectation is that they're not going to try to rebuild that program."

🚨 PRESIDENT TRUMP JUST NOW: "The main thing is that Iran will not have a nuclear weapon!" "They fully agreed to that with strong POLICING powers and they won't have a nuclear weapon, which is what it was all about because they probably would have used it if they had it." "So we had two big moments when we terminated the JCPOA, that was the Obama deal, the Barack Hussein Obama deal." "And when I terminated, that was very important because it was a road to a nuclear weapon. It was a horrible deal for the United States. It was a deal where billions of dollars was given to Iran."

Trump on the flawed Iran Nuclear Deal: "Iran can't have nuclear weapons.-- The deal that was made with Obama-- It was a terrible deal-- That gave them a clear path to a nuclear weapon."

A U.S. war with Iran would not be about Iran's nuclear program but rather the interests of Israel. In this clip, Pres. Georg Bush made clear that a war with Iran would be for Israel. It was only after the Israel lobby asked Bush to keep that a secret that politicians began emphasizing the nuclear program.

SNEAKO asks Iranian Professor Marandi if Iran is close to developing a nuclear weapon🚀🇮🇷 "For 40 years Netanyahu has been saying Iran is weeks away from making a nuclear weapon. US intelligence claims that Iran before 2003 was moving in that direction but after 2003 there was a fatwa and Iran discontinued completely, but the IAEE doesn't even accept that, they say there's no indication that Iran was developing a nuke at any time."

How is it Trump's nominee for the IAEA, a key nuclear inspection agency, didn't know that both the IAEA AND Trump's 1st Admin certified that Iran was in compliance with the JCPOA? The JCPOA was preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. Trump ripped it up & started a war.

“Iran proved in that 12-day war that its regular weapons systems are capable of providing national security ... The only reason that Iran would need a nuclear weapon is because the US doesn’t realize it cannot defeat Iran with anything less than a nuclear weapon.” Laith Marouf (Free Palestine TV) noted that Iran could have refused a ceasefire and continued its retaliatory attacks, but that would have “forced the Israelis into the corner of using a nuclear weapon.”

First of all, the President without, knock on wood, having a single American casualty, obliterated the Iranian nuclear program. We are now in a place where we weren’t a week ago. A week ago, Iran was very close to having a nuclear weapon. Now, Iran is incapable of building a nuclear weapon with the equipment they had because we destroyed it, so that's a very, very big thing. Now, what that means, I think, is we have to talk to Iran and, of course Israel about what the future holds because, while we have obliterated the nuclear Iranian program our exception is they will not try to rebuild that program. And I think that's what the President is trying to figure out here is to build a long-term settlement here to where we can have peace in the region, where our regional allies and, of course, the American people, most importantly can be secured, but where we can ensure that the destruction of the Iranian nuclear program that has already happened is not something they try to rebuild.”

So we started a war of choice with Iran bcz we were worried they'd get a nuclear weapon and blockaded their blockade bcz the jealous fucking moron in the White House tore up the nuclear agreement that was successfully preventing Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. Brilliant. 😳👇

JD Vance suggested that Iran was a threat to the US because it could develop nuclear suicide bomb vests at the White House cabinet meeting on Thursday. “You don’t want the worst people in the world to have a nuclear weapon,” he said.

Trump just announced that Iran is a week away from a nuclear weapon. That was Trump's choice. When he became President in 2017, Iran was over a year away from a bomb and it was Trump's decision to throw out the nuclear agreement that started Iran's program again.

Is concern over Iran’s nuclear program repeating the mistakes that preceded the Iraq War? Nuclear weapons expert David Albright: “Not at all.” “I was engaged in criticizing the Bush administration’s assessments on Iraqi nuclear fantasies… There’s very concrete evidence that while there was nothing to be found with Iraq in 2002–2003, there was a lot to be found in Iran.”

Alastair Crooke: The US🇺🇸 may have signalled that it will resume nuclear weapons testing because Trump misunderstood a Russian missile test as a nuclear test ‘It seems to be based on a misunderstanding. Allegedly, Trump has proposed the idea of nuclear tests in response to Russian nuclear tests. But there hasn’t been a Russian nuclear test. The Burevestnik missile, that was publicised these recent days, like the Oreshnik. But this one has a nuclear power. It has got a propulsion system that is nuclear-based. Its warhead isn’t. There isn’t a nuclear warhead on it. It is a conventional warhead, but it is just instead of having a rocket propulsion, it has a nuclear drive that propels it. And this is why it’s able to stay aloft for a very long time, and in fact traverse the whole globe. But it’s nuclear propulsion, not a nuclear weapon. Did Trump understand that? Or did he just think this was a new nuclear weapon that Russia was testing? He probably didn’t understand that it wasn’t. It was just its propulsion mechanism that is nuclear, but not its warhead. Did Trump understand that? Or did he just think this was a new nuclear weapon that Russia was testing? He probably didn’t understand that it wasn’t. It was just its propulsion mechanism that is nuclear, but not its warhead. Now, whether the Russians have been testing underground before, I doubt it…I’m sure they would have taken every opportunity to say it if they thought they had detected Russian or Chinese underground tests.’ -Alastair Crooke, the former Middle East Advisor to the EU Foreign Policy Chief, on the latest episode of Going Underground FULL INTERVIEW BELOW IN THE REPLIES👇
