Iran has been weeks away from a nuke for decades. What evidence is there that they were any closer this time, or that this war was necessary to delay or block their progress?

I vaguely remember a similar situation last year, where Trump said, Irans nuclear program is now destroyed for years to come.

  • Yep, the Iran chicken hawks can't keep their stories straight.

    Trump's chicken hawk fanboys:

    - Iran is weeks away from nukes, but our bombing runs last year were so successful they're now years away. But now they're weeks away again, got to attack!

    - We're not the world's police, but Iran killed 30k of their own citizens, we need to help them and be the world's police!

    - The Iranians were going to attack US bases because of an Israeli attack, so to prevent those attacks we attacked first. Thus giving them no reason to bomb our bases. Oh god, they're bombing our bases! The fiends!
