They probably wanted to do just want you said. (or maybe they only needed a few, to finish the jews off)
The thing is, even that was too much for the US to accept.

The minuet they went over 20% imo, they flew too close to the sun.
If your found to have over 60% in 2021, and potentially over 83% enriched a year or two lateron.
Yeah... and stockpiling like 450kg of it.

Can you blame the US?  At that point your Poking the bear.

The US has been telling them for 20years they are not allowed to develop nukes.
They spend all that time saying they aren't or don't plan too, but do so anyways.

Whatever their motives or plans.... that is too close for comfort.
It flies in the face of the US telling them "no, your not allowed".

Also at some point, do you even trust them not too? (make nukes) (it'll just stay at 83% forever.... because... trust me bro!)
(not to mention, I think you actually can make nukes, without it being enriched that high.... .it just isn't as "effective")

If they kept saying they weren't doing anything, but you have proof they were (enrichment % keeps going up and up).
How much can you trust insane islamist that promote terror, and paid for it, and often threaten the world?

Do you want them to have nukes?

OK, I'm glad we're finally on the same page about Iran's aim regarding nukes. Anyway, diplomacy is always an option. I don't know how credible the reports were, but the reports I've seen indicated that Iran was willing to make a relatively reasonable deal regarding their nuclear capability. If not particularly threatened, I'm fairly confident that under Khamenei's rule, Iran wouldn't have developed a nuke since they haven't so far either. Under future leaders, that's a different question.

Regardless, I think this was just Trump smelling blood due to Iran's weakness and wanting to capitalize on that. After Trump, the US will probably want to stay away from a major conflict with Iran, but Iran might see how their sovereignty has been violated when they didn't have nukes and end up going for nukes after all. The way I see it is that Trump has a quick short-term 'solution' to the issue, but since he's not willing to go all the way for a regime chance because it would require committing to an attack on the land if necessary, he's risking making it worse in the long term if a regime change isn't happening.

They have enriched uranium in very high percentages. It is not so simple, if they don't stop Europeans will join U.S.A. and it will escalate.
