'The possibility of Iran deciding to build nuclear weapons has been increased by the ongoing military conflicts in the Middle East,' report says
JERUSALEM — A leading U.S. research institute devoted to monitoring Iran’s illicit nuclear weapons program published an alarming report ahead of this weekend's U.S.-Iran talks, declaring Tehran’s atomic weapons system has reached an extremely dangerous stage.
The Washington, D.C.-based Institute for Science and International Security titled its shocking new report, "The Iran Threat Geiger Counter: Extreme Danger Grows."
According to the study, "Since February 2024, the date of its last report, the threat posed by Iran’s nuclear program has worsened significantly. Major negative factors include Iran’s greater nuclear weapon capabilities, its shorter time frames to build nuclear weapons, and the growing normalization of internal Iranian discussions favoring building nuclear weapons.
"The possibility of Iran deciding to build nuclear weapons has been increased by the ongoing military conflicts in the Middle East, pitting Iran and its proxy forces against Israel and its allies, a conflict Iran is losing. The volatile security situation is now combined with the perception, if not the reality, that Iran is preparing to build nuclear weapons."
On Wednesday, President Donald Trump said, "We have a little time, but we don't have much time, because we're not going to let them have a nuclear weapon. We can't let them have a nuclear weapon." He added "I'm not asking for much. I just — I don't — they can't have a nuclear weapon."
When asked about the potential for military action if Iran does not make a deal on their nuclear weapons, Trump said, "Absolutely."
"If it requires military, we're going to have military," the president told reporters at the White House. "Israel will obviously be very much involved in that. They'll be the leader

Will this war require more than attacking Iran’s nuclear sites alone? Will it require a pounding of all its cities as well? Thinking Germany Japan in 1945 style?
Just remember. When barky was in office the chance presented itself to overthrow the present Persian empires government.
Barky turned his back.
Around has been months away from creating a nuclear device for years now. They might not have plutonium implosion technology, but surely they have uranium gun type Tech that could be hidden in a tanker truck or a ship.

Im sure from the last few times Israel knocked them down a few notches when they got close. they are smart enough to hide these facilities in residential areas knowing they have human shields
What a coincidence for such a revelation to appear just days before talks begin...
they are smart enough to hide these facilities in residential areas

Because enriched uranium cannot be detected, right?
I don’t think that’s true. My understanding is that Iran has two highly sophisticated centrifuge centers, one at Natanz, one at another location whose name I do not recall. Supposedly, these are 300 feet deep processing facilities.
If Israel disrupted these facilities with the “stuxnet” virus they created and introduced into the system [and this was how many years ago?] then Iran has quite up-to-date Siemens industrial control tech running these spinners. They take off their material when it has reached the pctage enrichment they desire. Nuclear reactors use 3-5% enriched uranium, Iran has been routinely enriching to 20% for years and recent indications that is has been enriching to 60%. It is only a matter of how long you leave the material in the centrifuges. There is no, none, zero use for % enrichment over single-digits other then prepping for a weapon.
What I’m saying is, there is no justification for believing that Iran is engaged in anything but weapons creation.
Just chill and nuke them after they nuke us. Then we’ll be able to be morally superior...”proved it!”
