Why do so many want to see the US as the bad guys?
Like common...
If "scientists" that visit them, look over their enrichment and say its over 60%, one year.
Only to be denied future access to oversight, and then satellites can pick up traces of particles over 83%....
That does not sound like "weeks away from nukes for years and years".
Why are they even trying if they are told not too?
If the US, doesn't act, its words (and threats) become meaningless.
It erodes their "soft power". Sometimes all the US has to do is say "try us", and people/countries think twice about their actions.
You can't be saying for 20years or so, "don't do this, we wont allow it, there will be consequences".... only to watch them keep doing so (trying at it).
Get close to success, and then not act.
And what is the alternative? I asked this before.
Do people actually want Iran to have nukes? What other option did the americans really have? |
Honest negotiations, not unconditional demands and then attack while negotiating.
Not scrapping the treaty they had and keep assassinating people in Iran while strangling the people with sanctions.
It's not about nukes, it's about Israel and dominance of the ME.
The US did nothing while North Korea was building nukes, performing nuclear tests (2006) and then getting missiles capable of striking LA.
As of 2025, U.S. officials and experts believe North Korea has advanced its technology enough that its missiles could deliver a nuclear payload to targets throughout North America.

In a Feb. 28 video announcing that the United States attacked Iran, Trump stated that Iran had “attempted to rebuild their nuclear program” and that the strikes will “ensure that Iran does not obtain a nuclear weapon.” But when the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran on Feb. 28, there was no evidence that Iran was engaged in nuclear activities that would pose an imminent threat to the United States. Neither U.S. President Donald Trump nor Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu presented any evidence of an ongoing weaponization effort and, in a March 2 press conference, IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi said “we don’t see a structured program to manufacture nuclear weapons” in Iran. The following day, in an interview with CNN, Grossi was asked if “the Iranians were days or weeks away from building a bomb.” His response was "no."
Trump also stated that Iran was attempting to rebuild its nuclear program, after the United States and Israel destroyed key nuclear facilities during June strikes (also without evidence of weaponization). Iran has continued activities at nuclear facilities that were unaffected by the June strikes, including the Pickaxe site near the Natanz uranium enrichment complex, which is deeply buried and could, when operational, pose a risk. There are also indications that Iran may be cleaning up or stabilizing some of the nuclear sites that were struck. But there is no evidence to suggest that Iran is resuming proliferation-sensitive nuclear activities, such as uranium enrichment, that would be necessary to produce nuclear material for a bomb.
....
Furthermore, there is no evidence to suggest that Iran was on the verge of developing a ballistic missile capable of targeting the United States. In the wake of the negotiation of the 2015 nuclear deal, Iran announced a voluntary range limit of 2,000 kilometers for its ballistic missiles. Tehran appears to still be generally adhering to that limit.
