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



can anyone confirm?

Confirmed. Two Iranian news outlets (reformist and conservative) have confirmed it.

 
ظریف: چیزی به نام «اسنپ‌بک» نداریم، در برجام یا شورای امنیت به آن «مکانیزم حل‌ و فصل اختلافات» گفته می‌شود
This is ridiculous. He still claims that snapback doesn't exist in the JCPOA lol

He is a pathologically narcissistic.

he is saying the word snapback does not exist in UNSCR 2231 / JCPOA and is a political term the West invented to sell the deal domestically. he is right about that. but the dispute resolution mechanism he talks about LEADS TO the 'snapback' of prior UNSC resolutions. so it's a distinction without a difference.

I know what he's talking about but there is no "dispute resolution mechanism" at all. It's not really a mechanism and it's not really dispute resolution either.

It's quite simple. Any of the global powers can accuse Iran of violating the deal and unless everyone agrees that Iran has not violated the deal, the sanctions will snap back.

the process is called dispute resolution mechanism but the effect of the 'mechanism' is what you describe. Zarif doesn't seem to recognise that concepts such as 'acting in good faith' or 'exhausting the dispute resolution mechanism' are subjective and unenforceable

What about Article 37?
I mean if that's all that there is to it, there is no snapback mechanism. But I'm sure there is. It's probably in Article 37 or 38.
 


what does this even mean?

If SnapBack goes into place:

Then the resolutions that covered these topics go back into effect:

  • An arms embargo
  • A ban on uranium enrichment and reprocessing
  • A ban on launches and other activities with ballistic missiles capable of delivering nuclear weapons, as well as ballistic missile technology transfer and technical assistance
  • A targeted global asset freeze and travel ban on Iranian individuals and entities
  • Authorization for countries to inspect Iran Air Cargo and Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines cargoes for banned goods
 


The day to exit the NPT with full justification was the night Israel bombed Iran’s nuclear program. And the second righteous time when the first was missed, was when the U.S. bombed Fordow.

But 2 months later? It makes Iran look like the aggressor and also painfully inept at playing the geopolitical chess match.
 
The situation is extremely unpredictable. No one really knows what Trump or Netanyahu will do next. I put the chance of a new war at 50%.

But one thing is certain: the next three years will be the most decisive period in modern Iranian history.

IR leaders still care about being measured and reasonable, they think the rest of the world will appreciate their prudence somehow

took them one year to even start to respond to the US quitting the JCPOA
