man even americans are starting to regurgitate this isreali party line; gazans are so fucked.
Is it an Israeli line? I don't doubt that Israel says it, but it seems to me like Iran developing nukes is a pretty rational response to America ditching the agreement. I certainly don't like a government like Iran's having those weapons, but it's very understandable for it to want them and the country has the capacity to make it happen
Yes it's an Israeli line. (This was from like 20 years ago.)
Got to love the iconography of a bomb from the 19th century.
Doesn't that turn of phrase imply that it's untrue (or at least misrepresentative) though? It's not meaningfully "an Israeli line" if it's actually just true
1 - I didn't say it was? I'm allowed to express an opinion without expecting the world to conform to it
2 - Disliking Iran's government doesn't imply liking opposed governments
3 - They do, I agree
Broken clocks can still be right.

Inspectors from the UN found enrichment activity was starting to exceed 84% where 90% is the target for bomb making. 60% is the level they are attempting to enforce.
Also this is February 2023, so you’d suspect they’ve made more progress since then.
