Iran - Israel/US War: Israel-US declare war on Iran, Iran responds

[AZ_HighCountry]

If you don't want a nuclear weapon, then why do you need 60% enriched fuel? And if you want to show commitment to not building a nuclear ⁠weapon, don't build highly enriched fuel. That's a very basic threshold issue," Vance said.

They are looking for a way out a face saving way as soon as possible looks like they want some kind of deal before the midterms just around the corner the only way to stop Iran is a full on land invasion and they’re not going to want to do that say whatever you want about Iran doesn’t seem like the current military and hardliners in Irans political system or even the moderates are going to turn on Iran they have no way in to cause a collapse of Iran

That's just it. You don't.

For commercial power generation, 7-10% is sufficient for establishing the chain reaction necessary for power generation.

10-20% is commonly used for research purposes.

Greater than 20%, forget the range now, is what is typically used for propulsion.

At 60%, someone needs to be asking "are you pursuing a nuclear weapon"?

Well to be fair when did they do that after Trump backed out of an agreement and Iran was doing 3 or 5 percent before that they held up to an agreement that Trump decided to leave and I don’t blame the Iranians if they did actually go nuclear Trumps buddy in NK has them and he loves his brother but if Iran actually did wish to go nuclear they had 20 years to do it all international and American reports said they had stopped meaningfully attempting to build a weapon 20 plus years ago it wasn’t worth the risk it actually might be worth the risk now though

Lots of people gained huge wealth from exploiting sanctions. Thats the most likely explanation for the HEU

Sorry I don’t think that makes sense I agree corrupt people definitely made money during sanctions but HEU was only raised after the sanctions were put back in place while Iran was the only country abiding with the agreement and they consistently kept raising it every time Trump placed more sanctions on Iran so whatever trumps reasoning(Bibi Bibi Bibi)with walking out of agreement that both sides agreed upon with one country consistently attempting to stay in a agreement that had become one sided agreement so yeah Iran said F it can’t blame them

US/ Israel wanna suck all the GCC maany dry bro. Them sovereign funds ripe for da plucking no?

They attacked Iran to use it as a hammer against da Israeli anvil, and when dem Iranians busted dem Israeli like a street twink, they themselves stepped in da fray no?

Come on bro.......its declared $5 trillion GCC savings theys after no?

The real figure is probably multiple times dat no?

Come on now? you know whats up no?

Iran they fukked around wid cuz they knew they can create muzz-Lim sectarian drama.

Except if Iran decides to provide its own nuclear fuel to its reactors in next 25 years that Russia and Iran building, it will need over 250,000 SWU.

Which if you have that much industrial enrichment capacity it doesn’t really matter if you are enriching at 5% or 60% because if the person decides to sprint to a nuke they can do it in a blink of an eye at that capacity.

Keep in mind Iran never built out more than 20,000 SWU or so due to JCPOA being eventually signed and even when torn up iran never truly began building its industrial capacity beyond that range. So even back then Iran would need to have enlarged its program by a factor of 10 to feed domestic nuclear plants coming online next 25 years.

So really the 60% vs 20% vs 5% is all bullshit because the real question is how many SWUs are you willing to accept. If the answer by Vance is “as much as Iran wants” as long as it’s not higher than 5%, then it doesn’t matter what level iran enriches at because industrial capacity is something that takes longer and more costly to build then dialing the enrichment % up once you have the capacity.

And that is why JCPOA had a SWU limit for 20 years via various sunset clauses. So in reality, what Vance is saying is “you can never have a large industrial scale enrichment program even if you enrich at 1%”.

They've usurped the entire GCC sovereign wealth funds whilst concocting dis Irani turani war hysteria.

Come on bro.......

Something like $10 trillion they've usurped no? Maybe far more.

And here we bickering over stupid Shia Sunni muzz-Lim ummah chummah no?

Didn’t they obliterate (Trump’s word) Iranian enrichment capacity?

And now choked off (Bassant’s words) Iranian trade.

Maybe the US cowboys can tell us how Iran is supposed to be enriching if the above are true.

The “US perspective” thread goes even further.

US is an economic hegamon.

US is too gay to be a military hegamon.

Iran only started to go to 60% after the USA pulled out of the JCPOA to pressure the USA to get back in to the JCPOA.

It is a consequence of USA/Trump actions.

Except that the price of reducing enrichment has gone up.

Before the cost was lifting of sanctions.

Now, thanks to Trump’s “deal making” abilities - cost now includes: Iranian control of SoH amongst a long list of other things.

Trump the “deal maker”.

US losses in Iran operation revised to 81 aircraft

The Congressional Research Service updated its assessment of the 'Epic Fury' operation against Iran, raising total destroyed or damaged US manned and unmanned aircraft from 42 to 81 since Feb 28. Losses include F-15Es, F-35As, A-10s, KC-135 tankers, E-3 Sentry AWACS, MC-130Js, and helicopters.

MQ-9 Reaper fleet decimated

Reaper losses surged from 24 to over 45, threatening the remaining ~135-unit inventory and accelerating efforts to find cheaper replacements. Three of four early F-15E losses were due to friendly fire, while two MC-130Js were destroyed by US forces after evacuation failed.

Congressional budget officials estimate replacement costs at $1.9-3.3 billion. Note that some damaged machines may return to service.

Iran began producing HEU already in 2010.
