"Iran simply does not respond to diplomacy. Would they really listen to a lesbian? Does Wong not have a clue what Islam is about?"

Diplomacy. Do you even know what that is ttbn?

Official says Iran would forego highly enriched uranium for deal, NBC reports
http://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/official-says-iran-would-forego-highly-enriched-uranium-deal-nbc-reports-2025-05-14/
May 14 (Reuters) - Iran is willing to agree to a deal with the U.S in exchange for the lifting of economic sanctions, an Iranian official told NBC News in an interview published on Wednesday.
Ali Shamkhani, an adviser to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said Iran would commit to never making nuclear weapons, getting rid of its stockpiles of highly-enriched uranium, agree to only enrich uranium to the lower levels needed for civilian use, and allow international inspectors to supervise the process, NBC reported.

'Netanyahu Is Sabotaging Diplomacy': Israeli Attack Kills Top Iranian Nuclear Negotiator
http://www.commondreams.org/news/israel-kills-ali-shamkhani
"This action ordered by Prime Minister Netanyahu appears to deliberately undermine ongoing American diplomatic negotiations about Iran's nuclear program," said one Democratic senator.

>>Israel's large-scale military attack on Iran early Friday targeted and killed an official who was leading a committee on nuclear talks with the United States, a decision that observers and Iranian officials said was clearly designed to undercut progress toward a diplomatic agreement.

Ali Shamkhani, whose home was among those attacked by Israel on Friday, was a top aide to Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and had expressed optimism in recent weeks about the prospect of improved relations with the U.S. as President Donald Trump signaled he was open to a deal.

"If the Americans act as they say, for sure we can have better relations," Shamkhani toldNBC News last month. "It can lead to a better situation in the near future."<<

Iran was willing to make a deal.
Israel demanded zero enrichment, Iran said no.
They have a right to do so under international law for peaceful energy production.
And who the hell is Trump to demand anything when it was he who pulled out of the JCPOA

Trump pretended to do a deal, lulling the Iranians into a false sense of security, all the while knowing an attack was imminent.
So what did Israel and US do?

Fired a missile into Iran to assassinate the Head Iranian Nuclear negotiator and his family, who had signaled a willingness to do a deal.

You people are dumb, because your sources are shite.

The JCPOA, or Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, is a 2015 international agreement aimed at restricting Iran's nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief. It was negotiated by Iran and the P5+1 (China, France, Germany, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States). The deal placed limitations on Iran's nuclear activities, including uranium enrichment, and allowed for international inspections of its nuclear facilities.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:

Purpose:
The primary goal of the JCPOA was to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons.

Key Provisions:
Iran agreed to significantly reduce its stockpile of enriched uranium.
Iran's uranium enrichment capacity was reduced, including dismantling some centrifuges and limiting the type and number of centrifuges used.
The JCPOA included provisions for enhanced international monitoring and inspections of Iran's nuclear facilities by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).

Sanctions Relief:
In return for these commitments, the agreement lifted a number of international sanctions that had been imposed on Iran.
Withdrawal and Current Status:

The United States, under the Trump administration, withdrew from the JCPOA in 2018 and reimposed sanctions on Iran.
Iran has subsequently taken steps to reduce its compliance with the agreement.
The JCPOA currently faces significant challenges, with ongoing discussions and negotiations regarding its future

How could anybody put up for Iran with all it,s proxy fighters. Now under martial law, the Iatola in hiding. Iran is stuffed. Their people did not stand up for themselves, and now suffer the consequences. The world will be a better place, Hopefully. Let us see the Iotola handed over to it,s citizens for justification.

The US pulled out of JCPOA because it was a monumental failure. It was a means to allow Iran to avoid sanctions while at the same time surreptitiously continuing to develop its infrastructure toward obtaining nukes. It was yet another of Obama's pie in the sky deals. Iran had and has no intention of abiding by any deal that will stop them pursuing a nuke or the ballistic rockets on which to place it. Its the height of naivety to think otherwise.

Dear Ttbn,

«The Mullahs never did history, so they don't know that Jews are the indigenous people.»

This statement is dangerous because it could be possibly understood as if anyone who is not indigenous deserves to be bombed and nuked until driven to exile out of their homes.

I hope that this is not what you meant.

And actually, the so-called "Palestinians" are no less indigenous than the so-called "Jews": many of the former descend from the original Judeans and their ancestors never left the country (even while they converted into Islam at some stage); while many of the latter are of European/Caucasian descent who converted to Judaism and whose ancestors have never been in Israel.

None of that should matter anyway. People should be able to remain safely in their own homes, regardless of ancestry.

The whole discussion is hopeless.
The ultimate point is if Iran gets a nuke it will use it.
Israel will be the target. The US is next in line.
As Iran has clearly said first the small one and then
the biggest one. They even gave a date 2027.
In that situation the US would have to act and nuke Iran.
Who knows they might be close to 2 or more bombs.
They could smuggle one in a shipping container into the US.
