Iranian Nuclear Doctrine

[Persian Gulf]

Honestly just go nuclear reports say it might take a few months to weaponize a working bomb but Iran has shown in the past people don’t always have the right information breakout time probably a lot faster than a few month than let everyone follow than disarm for the sake of nuclear free Middle East never want to see a nuclear weapon ever used but people tend to come to realization that once they do no one wins

I would like to see Iran and Saudi Arabia both develop nuclear weapons. Israel's nuclear hegemony must come to an end.

Sadly Israel controls the US and it will be very difficult for Iran to successfully develop nuclear weapons in the face of the US-Israeli military threats.

Iran's current rate of production of 60% HEU is high and something has to give way within a few months IMO (and this year for sure).

I refer you to the three part by Patarames. I trust him way more than random "Godfatherpenny".

Watched his videos. He doesn’t really address it. Just briefly says the effects are exaggerated in a mountainous region like Iran- I’m assuming he’s talking about surface effects. Anyways his whole idea of Iran digging out the tunnels from the inside while there are ongoing tactical nuke strikes against the same facilities comes off as a fantasy.

You should understand that underground facilities are not that robust.
Let alone withstanding a Nuclear bunker buster—such an idea is pure fantasy.
In a sense, underground facilities serve as decoys. They force the attacker to use bunker busters or even nuclear weapons, imposing a relatively high cost on them.
The enemy might find it too troublesome and abandon the attack, or if they do proceed, they will have to expend far more resources than they would on soft targets.
This, in turn, can delay damage to more vulnerable facilities and civilians.

However, as Israel demonstrated in Lebanon, if overwhelming force is deployed without restraint, everything will be obliterated, leaving nothing behind.
Such facilities cannot stop an enemy that is truly determined to attack—they are merely decoys.

using a 300kt nuclear weapon to damage Iran's nuclear facilities is quite an extreme method. I am sure Russia and China wouldn't mind if the US lowered the threshold for the use of such nuclear weapons

If someone uses a nuclear bomb in peacetime It is because WWIII just started. Next would be any anglosaxon base in the Middle East and next would be Tehran and next would be hundreds of missiles over Al Qods and so on. It is so crazy that you shouldn't even read the small summary of the tweet.

I respect that they escalated straight to 300kt instead of starting with a more 'moderate' 10-50kt as well

So Iran’s strategy here is hope that Israel wouldn’t go this route? It’s a nasty and extreme route but why wouldn’t Israel hit all missile and nuclear bases with direct nuclear strikes? The only thing holding them back is any plausibility that Iran may produce nukes in secret or already have one. I mean can they really be certain that Iran can’t produce one after such strikes?

But it’s a gamble the psychopaths in Israel may be willing to take.

Have you watched the whole series? I find Patarames to very reasonably in his argumentation. I am also certain that Iran has taken almost insane levels of precautions. Iran is well aware of that the enemy has morals and will shy from nothing. I pray that the American military keeps being the voice of sanity and that we'll never have to find out.

Yes have seen all of them. He has good analysis but I think this scenario is not realistic (Iran building nukes while taking sustained strikes with nuclear weapons).

I hope not. Nukes are expensive and useless. Russia has the largest Nuclear Arsenault in the world yet it hasn't stopped the U.S attacking Russian mainland with U.S Missiles operated by U.S personnel out of Ukraine. It did not prevent non nuclear Ukraine from invading and occupying Russian land in the Kursk region!
