Tornado Alley (PROG)

[blackhawks]

Nothing is over until it is over. Some people use choke chains on their young dogs, you give your mutt of a president a leash a block long with his contradictory statements about war and peace. He makes no fucking sense.

My claims about the difficulty and the time to build nuke warhead carrying missiles without 'interference' from the U.S or Israel go unrebutted by you. Gotta be a nervous drive to work and a likely, pun intended, short half-life for the Iranians working that project.

Iran’s own stated position

Iran argues:

It has a right to enrich uranium under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
60% enrichment is not explicitly banned.
Its program is peaceful and declared.

They sometimes cite:

Advanced research
Medical isotope production (though experts say far lower enrichment suffices)
Bottom line on the “why”

Technical necessity? Weak case.
Strategic leverage / deterrence? Strong consensus.
Step toward weapons capability? Widely suspected, but not definitive proof of a bomb program.

2) Does that justify military attacks?

This is where things get much murkier.

Legal perspective (international law)

Under the UN Charter:

Force is allowed for:
Self-defense against an armed attack, or
With UN Security Council authorization

Preemptive strikes based on potential future capability (like enrichment levels) are:

Highly controversial
Often considered legally questionable unless the threat is imminent

👉 Enriching to 60% by itself is not an attack.
