Unlike, India, Pakistan or, say, Israel, Iran is a ratifier of the non-proliferation treaty and subject to inspections making sure they don’t. Meanwhile Israel not only has had nukes for decades but also continually refuses any accountability for them.

Indeed, to venture off-topic, Israel has sought nuclear weapons for as long as it has existed, which one might plausibly construe as further evidence that their state was knowingly and willingly established by military force, without much pretense that it could ever persist otherwise.


They wouldn't be the only country that made nuclear weapons. Or are you proposing that every country that's ever manufactured nukes be bombed into dust? There are a lot of them.


The there are broad types of penalties prescribed in the NPT, which Iran is a party to.

USA should not act unilaterally and should abide by the NPT.


Israel did that, are you okay with it?


I have no opinion.


Your questions in here give the impression you do, and that your opinion is in favor of some kind of intervention. Military interventions have all gone poorly for us, while using diplomacy has worked over and over. Results should matter here and results say bombing is the wrong choice.

"Let Iran do whatever?" is not even close to a neutral perspective.

The intent is not clear. You come across as lying about neutrality.


Man, no wonder this world is screwed up. Never mind then. I’ll just stop asking questions and let trump do as he likes.

Or learn how to not write non-leading questions.

Edit: Hey Hey editing all your posts doesn't make you look more sincere, that's just being more antagonistic.


Our own intelligence said they’re not making weapons.

They’ve said they’re not making weapons.

Trump pulled us out of a deal where we lifted sanctions in order to ensure there were no weapons.

This is embarrassing and outright illegal.


Yes.
