The strikes and war on Iran have delayed Iran’s nuclear program for up to two years. The Iranian nuclear deal that Trump abandoned in his first term delayed Iran’s nuclear program by ten to fifteen years.
Iran’s nuclear program was one of the most transparent in the world thanks to the nuclear deal with Obama, which Trump left. With the war, it’s difficult to know what Iran is doing as far as nuclear research and building.
The war may have strengthened the Iranian regime by giving Iran an outside enemy that is attacking them. When Trump talks about erasing civilization and shares maps of Iran breaking up, that facilitates Iranians believing that the US and Israel are after Iran, not just the current regime.
The Obama Iran deal required 100s of workers and experts working meticulously to get done. Trump sent a couple real estate guys and then gave up and started a war which he lost.
The Iran conflict, in its low-grade double blockade form, feels like an endless cycle.
Iran has been attacked by a superpower and is technically more able to develop nuclear material than they were a decade ago…they likely want a nuke for defensive purposes more than ever.
Russia had a ship carrying two nuclear reactors likely for North Korea’s nuclear submarines. It was sunk by some sort of explosion. No one is admitting what happened.
Iran says that the reason they enriched uranium past the agreed upon amount was because Trump betrayed the deal Iran made with the United States. They only did it as retaliation for the United States backing out of an agreement both countries agreed to, not because they wanted a nuke.
Iran was creating the precursors of a nuke. Such precursors were not needed for peaceful nuclear energy. The bombings may have only set Iran back from building a nuclear device by months.
