This has no boots on the ground and no regime change calls.... entirely different then Iraq or Afghanistan
Plus ummm even the IAEA has said Iran was violating what they claimed since early 2000s
This just started. Your party had a lot of support because Trump didn't get us into any new wars. That support was just lost, to a great extent.
Americans are sick of this shit and it's not going to end well for your warmongering comrades.

Do you really want to compare the scope of American acts against Iran with their actions against America? You need to stop drinking the Kool Aid
Edit: Also, no one but Republican sycophants give a shit about what Reagan did 40 years ago. We are sick of the wars that people like you keep dragging us into.
reply
Sounds like you are the one drinking the Kool Aid...
Trump is calling for peace and is calling for it right now. Iran will you pick up the phone? No they wont because they want the US to impose its will on Israel which contradicts what you said about playing world police and forcing people to act one way or another. Israel can do its own stuff and so can the US its call independence

Calling for peace after bombing someone. Ok, good luck with that.
Have fun siding with Lindsey Graham and the other lunatics. The people who keep being right about these conflicts will be right again this time. I'm happy to stand by that. @remindme in 1 year. We'll see who was drunk on Kool Aid.

The IAEA found uranium enriched to 83% in 2023: https://edition.cnn.com/2023/03/01/middleeast/iran-uranium-enrichment-iaea-intl/index.html
Iran is clearly attempting to build nuclear weapons. There aren't civilian applications for uranium enriched beyond 20%. As it is, Iran has openly admitted to the IAEA that they're enriching to 60%.
reply
Yes, they've been open about enriching uranium for energy and medical purposes. That's not justification for anything.
By my understanding, they were complying with inspections while the Iran Deal was in place and have always been open to resuming those.
Stop falling for every dumb piece of war propaganda.
reply
Neither medical nor energy purposes need 60% enriched uranium. Certainly not 83%
Stop falling for dumb Iranian propaganda.
reply
Naval reactors do use that level of enrichment, unlike nuclear weapons.

The reference I found said at least 50%, but I'm certainly no expert on this.
Is that number universal or are there models that use higher levels?
Iran doesn't have nuclear powered submarines and isn't building any; it would be perfectly reasonable to ensure they don't get any even if they tried.
reply
Your view of what's reasonable is very different from mine. Mine doesn't involve trying to police the actions of everyone on Earth.
