Those funding him and his weird Commander in Cheat circle of enablers, lawyers, and opportunitistic predators is the greatest global energy security threat in history.
And because they cannot retaliate by sending nuclear bombs on to Israel and on to the US they... Attack every single neighbouring country? Including other countries ran by islamist cracknuts who also rule by sharia law?
I don't want to know what a country who publicly executes athletes, who kills 30 000 of its own and who throws a tantrum by attacking every single neighbouring country would do once it'd get nuclear weapons.
I know there are many people who are going to guarantee us that a country doing these horrible things would suddenly be all wise and nice once it'd have nuclear weapons but I think these people are, at best, totally delusional.
If only we had had a deal that the entire intelligence community had agreed was working where Iran had agreed to stop developing nuclear weapons.
That would have been a nice thing to have. What a good world that would have been. Too bad... Wait. Wait. You're telling me we had that deal? And that Donald Trump is the one that ended it in his previous term, thus once again being the root cause for this conundrum?
Shit.
We can debate whether they were close to a nuke or not, or whether they'd strike as far as the West, but Iran wasn't stopping trying to create a warhead.
They resumed after it went away, and had most of a decade to get the previous stuff out of mothballs and continue.
No one seriously suggests that Iran had continued working on their nuclear weapons program while the Obama deal was in place.
Edit: The IAEA had 24/7 access to the sites and constently verified they were abiding by the deal. Trump himself testified twice they were abiding by the deal. They had dismantled their heavy-water reactor and could not produce plutonium, had gotten rid of 97% of it's enriched uranium, turned off 2/3rds of their centrifuges, and was not producing weapons grade enriched uranium.
Under the deal they did not have any uranium enriched beyond 4%. After we withdrew, they had since been able to get up to 60% enriched.
The Trump admin reported a myriad of inconsistent reasons to bomb Iran. None of them was Iran murdering protesters.
In fact, one of the first justifications was that Israel was going to bomb Iran first, so the US somehow decided to go in first for God knows whatever reason.
there ftfy..
The have nukes, commit genocide, extort foreign politicians, attack every neighboring country. Assasinate people all over the globe. Ignore every international law and convention. Also they are the only country compeletley exempt from the FIVEYE surveillance program.
Granted, that predates Trump, but he continues to enable it at an even greater scale than Biden did (and Biden enabled it a fuckin' lot.)
