>>2731138Yeah, the US ruling class done fucked up this time. But there's already an iran thread
>>2731138>iran could possibly develop nukesif american leadership really believed this, then they fell for their own bullshit
https://www.readthemaple.com/documenting-25-years-of-media-fearmongering-on-iranian-nukes/the irony is israel has tons of nukes already, as does america, iran doesn't have even one. obama cut the nuclear deal in 2015 to limit their uranium enrichment and let the IAEA inspect their facilities. in exchange they would unfreeze iranian assets. trump tore that deal up unilaterally up before it was through its 8 year term because bibi wanted something more punishing to iran. trump told his mouth breathing supporters that the iranian money that the iranians were getting unfrozen as part of america's end of the bargain was actually "american money" that "hillary clinton was giving away." naturally his cultists believed this and knelt to bibi to own hilldawg.
and for the record, why iran enriches so much uranium despite not really wanting a nuke (even though maybe they should want a nuke) is because they're a mountainous country that relies on nuclear power.
>>2731236no, they're ontologically evil actually, you idiot
>>2731241every country deserves 1 nuke to guarantee sovereignty. MAD worked. the cold war was a nothingburger. burgers won't ever fuck with DPRK again the way they fuck with iran right now.
>>2731236because in a situation such as the one today, they could do one in a few month at most without taking the diplomatic risk of actually having one and breaking the non proliferation treaty, hoping they'd eventually get sanction relief. They could also do a dirty bomb in emergency if israel actually nuked them.
ofc history has proven it would have been better to simply actually build one
>>2731245I'm honestly surprised that Switzerland isn't a nuclear power.
>>2731300swiss banks. a different form of nuke. you don't nuke the country holding onto everyone's money.
>>2731236With their magical nuclear reactors which for some reason require >60% enriched uranium instead of the 2-3% used in the rest of the world. Truly hilarious cope.
They don’t need a nuke when they can threaten to mine the strait
Le nuke is le paper tiger.

Principles of Communism:
https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1847/11/prin-com.htm< adherents of a feudal and patriarchal society which has already been destroyed, and is still daily being destroyed, by big industry and world trade and their creation, bourgeois society. This category concludes, from the evils of existing society, that feudal and patriarchal society must be restored because it was free of such evils. In one way or another, all their proposals are directed to this end. >>2732025>Socialism,patriot

>>2731236Iran started its nuclear program under the Shah, using Western technology and expertise. The IRI didn't start to develop a civilian industry that could be further developed into a nuclear weapons program on purpose. From the Iranian PoW they never intended to threaten Israel with nukes. Why should they limit what part of their economy they want to develop just because the US and Israel doesn't like their current political system and the way they build alliances in their region?
And for what reason did the Shah want to develop nuclear weapons? Well, at that time Egypt was the most staunch opponent of the US in the region and Iran was one if its greatest, if not the greatest ally of the Americans. Most likely the Shah wanted something they can threaten the Ba'athist countries with, and this was probably done with tacit US approval, especially considering all the help they received from the West. Even in this case the US and its allies were the only ones who had the audacity to consider using nuclear blackmail.
where the fuck did the US-Israeli War on Iran generals go?
