Iran will rebuild its nuclear facilities if they are destroyed, the country’s President Masoud Pezeshkian says, according to state media.

“It is not the case that if they destroy our facilities with bombs, everything will be lost — these capabilities exist in our minds, and therefore, whatever they do, we will rebuild again,” Pezeshkian says.

OK then, destroy them.

[Sirius Lee]

We will level them one you rebuild, so your terms are acceptable.

[hoagy62]

What if they use ‘special weapons’ from Dimona?

Kinda hard to rebuild in a radioactive glass crater.

[fruser1]

That’s why we’re going to destroy “capabilities” not just “facilities”.

[blackdog]

Blinked in that comment.

This sounds like a job for a cobalt-salted deep-penetrating nuke to take it out. . .you can rebuild in a few centuries. .

[MeanWestTexan]

Not if their oil production facilities are also destroyed.

No money.

[marcusmaximus]

No oil = Regime change in Iran.

[jeffersondem]

Sounds like the Iranians expect to get hit.

This is only a guess: the Iranians know they are not going to agree to stop pursuing nuclear weapons and they believe Israel is serious about stopping them.

[TangoLimaSierra]

Well, Masoud, thanks for the heads up.
We'll just go ahead and take out your oil producing ability while we're there.
Let's see you rebuild with no income.

[Eli Kopter]

Sounds like an invitation.

[faithhopecharity]

Yeah sure. Just try it from jahannam

[Colorado Doug]

That’s the problem when we play nice and just target facilities. This time, the Mullahs need to be taken out too. Give Iran back to the Iranians. Undo one of Jimmah Carters big mistakes. The one that created this festering mess.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Well then, bombs away. 😉

[Chewbarkah]

“If you destroy the nuclear weapons facilicites we do not have and do not even want, we will rebuild them.” Hmm...
