UN nuclear chief: Iran ‘weeks, not months’ from enough uranium to make a bomb
Times of Israel ^ | TOI

Posted on 04/23/2024 2:18:52 PM PDT by hardspunned

The head of the United Nations nuclear watchdog has said that it would take Iran just weeks to have enough enriched uranium to make a nuclear bomb, and that Tehran’s activity, alongside the limited access it grants to its facilities, “raises eyebrows.”

But International Atomic Energy Agency chief Rafael Mariano Grossi told Deutsche Welle in a report published Monday that attacking Iran’s nuclear facilities should be a “no-go.”

Grossi said that Iran is “weeks rather than months” away from having enough enriched uranium to make a nuclear weapon.

“The Iranians totally compromised the Israeli air defense and hit their two most protected airfields along with their most important intel facility.”

Did you say “former.”

They don’t have it because Israel has always destroyed it

There are a lot of things I worry about.

But Satan destroying Israel is not one of them.

It won’t happen; that much I can tell you.

Why is destroying Iranian nuclear capability a “no-go”?!

Apparently that would piss off the rich kid protesters on campus. BTW they are rich because of student loan forgiveness give aways.

“”or they’ve had the bomb for a while now, but are still gaslighting the rest of the world. I think it’s the latter.””

How about that? I was going to post I think they’d had one or more for a long time. Got ready to post a reply and saw whose post I was replying to. I’ve said we’re on the same wave length for some time.... I really do believe they have at least one. Why haven’t they used it? They know better IMO!

I thought I read the Iranians have enough enriched uranium for three bombs.

They should remember that a lot of Muslims live in Israel, but that few Jews now live in Iran.

A major reason for Europe and the USA to want Muslim immigrants is to ensure the leading cities have lots of Muslims so those cities aren’t targets for Muslim nuclear bombs.

Yup. If Iran was truly near completion of making a nuke, Israel would level the place.

Yup, Iran has been using North Korea as a job shop for it's nuclear development programs.

They have had access to the necessary materials for a limited number of bombs for some time.

More Jews would die from the Samson Option than Hitler killed. MAD has saved both our lives. It can work in the ME. It’s gotta work or you’re left with Assured Destruction.

LOL!! Great minds think alike. Don’t you think it’s rather naive for these people to say that Iran is close to getting the bomb. They’ve been saying that for decades. Iran sure wouldn’t tell us if they did, which makes me believe they like seeing the rest of the world wondering out loud about it, while they are laughing their arses off over it, because they’ve already got at least one, if not more.

Must be that upstate NY air I soaked up for the 21 years before I headed for the LEFT coast and the years you’ve remained there...Oh! to be 21 again! LOL

I think we can rely on Iran to lie to the world...as well as every politician here or there...

Reagan said, “trust but verify”, right? Why do we never hear about the NRC anymore? It is still part of our government, is it not?

Who was that guy who was practically thrown out of Iran who went there to inspect facilities - or the downsizing of weapons or materiel? Been a long time - can’t recall exact details. See why I would like to be 21 again?

>> they plan to destroy USA first (with
at least 7 or 8 major cities on their first- priority list for nuclear annihilation)

Can we give ‘em NYC, DC and Chicongo, and after THAT turn ‘em to radioactive glass?
