        So you are saying everyone saying Iran was building nukes were lying? At that point, how do you know the news of the us bombing Iran isn’t also lies?

          I mean the intelligence reports said it wasn’t. The people who said it was are known liars Trump and Netanyahu.

          Id believe the Intelligence community over those clowns.

          Tell me you learned nothing from the Iraq War without telling me you learned nothing from the Iraq War.

          Chris Hedges: War Deja Vu | The lies told to ignite the war with Iraq have been resurrected to ignite a war with Iran. The assessments of intelligence agencies and international bodies are dismissed, replaced by hallucinations.

            Forget the intelligence community’s Annual Threat Assessment that “Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and Supreme leader Khomeini has not authorized the nuclear weapons program that he suspended in 2003,”

            Weirdly enough that assessment says

            In the past year, we’ve seen an erosion of a decades long taboo in Iran on discussing nuclear weapons in public likely emboldening nuclear weapons advocates within Iran’s decision-making apparatus. Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile is at its highest levels and is unprecedented for a state without nuclear weapons

      That’s not something that happened yesterday. There have been no serious chances in the last 20 years or so, according to the oecd I believe IAEA.

        It doesn’t seem like it would be the organization to specialize nuclear proliferation investigations .

          Yeah I forgot which letters belong to it, the one that does chemical weapons too

          Edit: meant the IAEA earlier.
