Assessment could likely increase pressure on U.S., other world powers to restore the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran.

Iran is now reportedly within roughly a month of having enough material to fuel a nuclear weapon.

The prediction comes from experts studying data in recent reports by the International Atomic Energy Agency, the United Nations’ atomic inspection group, who say Iran has enriched enough nuclear fuel in recent months to reach near bomb-grade levels and has gained the capability to produce the fuel needed for a single nuclear warhead within roughly a month, according to The New York Times.

The newspaper also says federal officials who have seen classified estimates but prevented from discussing official assessments conceded Iran is only a few month away.

The assessment could likely increase pressure on the United States and other world powers to restore the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran in which Tehran agreed to wind down its enrichment program in exchange for the easing of sanctions.

Iran can also buy a weapon/nuclear material from North Korea or Pakistan.

Oh yeah, Iran is one month from a bomb unless we renew that 2015
“ deal”. In what rational world does is this believable?

Trust Iran, they really really want to drop their nuke weapons program if only we made them a deal….

All it takes is one lower atmosphere nuclear burst to destroy the entire infrastructure of the US. They only need one.

It seems like Iran has been “one month away” for the last 20 years.

And, as far as they’re concerned, they only need one.

Pay close attention to what the Israelis say and do. Out of necessity the Mossad is much better informed than any western intelligence agency regarding Iran’s nuclear program. If they really are that close to getting bombers grade material the Israelis will act.

If there is action everyone will know it was “ Israel” but it won’t be “Israel.”

There are other regional players with an interest in not being dominated by an Iranian bomb,

another Weapons of Mass Destruction just in time to distract us from the Biden blunder in Afghanistan and everything else. Get ready for the Media-Dem Party and the neo-con artists to start pushing us towards another endless war.

The same "rational" world that requires the non-vaxed to get vaxed in order to protect people who took a vaccine that totally works....
