Even if you believe that “the Mullahs” were pursuing nuclear weapons (which is debatable), from the White House link in my last:

Iran’s Nuclear Facilities Have Been Obliterated — and Suggestions Otherwise are Fake News
The White House
June 25, 2025
The world is far safer after President Donald J. Trump’s highly successful, decisive precision strikes against the Iranian regime’s key nuclear facilities.

Take it from those who actually know:

President Trump: “Monumental Damage was done to all Nuclear sites in Iran, as shown by satellite images. Obliteration is an accurate term! The white structure shown is deeply imbedded into the rock, with even its roof well below ground level, and completely shielded from flame. The biggest damage took place far below ground level. Bullseye!!!”

Israel Atomic Energy Commission: “The devastating US strike on Fordo destroyed the site’s critical infrastructure and rendered the enrichment facility inoperable. We assess that the American strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, combined with Israeli strikes on other elements of Iran’s military nuclear program, has set back Iran’s ability to develop nuclear weapons by many years. The achievement can continue indefinitely if Iran does not get access to nuclear material.”

IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir: “I can say here that the assessment is that we significantly damaged the nuclear program, and I can also say that we set it back by years, I repeat, years.”

No need to read past that.

If they weren’t, what did they have buried underground at Fordo?

Okay, so we will be coming up on one year soon and then two years after that. Broken things can always be fixed when there is a will to do so. I am glad that we boult some time last June, now we are working on the will part.

Oh please! Do debate it, won't you? Why did Iran need hundreds of kilos of 60% enriched uranium while rapidly trying to enrich much, much more. There must be a good reason besides "death to America." Please tell us what it might be. Power reactors only need very low levels of enrichment and medical uses are only 20% at most. Why is Iran so desperate to enrich to 60% and beyond?
