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

[Shafagh]

Yes, but you don't need centrifuges to enrich uranium.

Also, you don't need uranium to build a bomb. Bushehr reactor produces 200-300 kg of plutonium per year.

I didn't know that. Thankyou for correcting me.

The plutonium is the waste byproduct of burning the plutonium fuel rods?

All those go to Russia

Aren't the inspectors still in Bushehr?

Yes, they are. We can kick them out though, but we won't.
We're a sitting duck, waiting for our inevitable fate at this point.

Why doesn't parliament call for immediate action?

Why doesn't parliament call for immediate action?

There's going to be an urgent session tomorrow, as far as I know.
Even members of the Guardian Council will be there to validate the legality of the bill if it gets passed.

احتمال بررسی ۳ فوریتی خروج ایران از NPT در صحن مجلس

عضو هیئت رئیسه مجلس شورای اسلامی گفت: گزارش کمیسیون امنیت ملی درباره مکانیسم ماشه فردا در صحن مجلس با قید ۳ فوریت بررسی و امکان خروج ایران از NPT مطرح خواهد شد.

It's our last hope in my opinion, but it should be passed only if the regime is going to build the bomb finally. Not just as a political move.

Iran can't "build a bomb" now; that would be impossible. If Iran leaves the NPT, it's because it already has the bomb, and not just one, but several.

"Israel" has a plan to launch a nuclear attack on Iran at the end of this phase of the war...but for this to happen they have to ensure that Iran has nothing nuclear to launch at Iran or at American bases as a counterattack.

Do you think they can build it?

Everyone is watching now and Israel is already gearing for round 2.

Come on @kastor ville i'm waiting for your answer. This is our Zelensky

He is an smartass.

Such dumb face...

Most likely not. That window of opportunity seems closed.

It seems that our 440 kg of HEU is buried under debris somewhere in Fordow or Natanz.
Even if we do recover that, we do not have uranium conversion facilities anymore. We need to convert UF6 gas into uranium metal.
We do not have plutonium reprocessing facilities to use the burnup at Bushehr either.

We may be able to build the bomb in 3-6 months, but not before that. The only exception is that if they already started working towards this after Israel bombed Iran, but we all know they're not that smart. I hope I'm wrong though.

I think the easiest way is to ask North Korea to give us the fissile material. If we have the fissile material, assembling a basic implosion device shouldn't be that out of reach for Iran. At the worst case scenario, we can build gun-type bombs. Even Al-Qaeda and the Taliban can do that with enough fissile material.

I agree with the rest but not this

the West monitors Iran importing ammonium from China for missile fuel, they will track this for sure and attack it

The critical mass of Pu-239 is 10 kg, at normal density. That means that if you do not compress plutonium and want to use the most inefficient design (gun-type), 10 kg is enough for one bomb.

Now if you can compress it in an implosion device, a 2 times compression would give you 4 nukes. The critical mass is inversely proportional to the square of density. More compression, significantly less fissile material needed to reach the critical mass.

You can put it in a well-shielded casing of lead and carry it on an airplane. Just split it into several suitcase-sized packages below the critical mass. Even on a civilian flight. It's not that difficult.

NOTE: If Iran leaves the NPT, it is because it already has several atomic bombs.

NOTE 2: Security must be tightened as a terrorist attack could be carried out in the Iranian parliament during the vote.
