And I believe that Trump's reasons for constantly returning to the nuclear issue, and having stated that was his primary interest, along with Israel's, is the reason that he went in there.
and we should also bear in mind as I said before the United States is
tragically had casualties, but nowhere near the casualties that would have happened in a real war.
So we have to put this in context and understand what it is.
It is a serious war for the United States, but that war is really not being waged in the way in which wars usually happen with many deaths and so on, on our side.
is this not a situation where the u.s going from here has to actually do a lot more to stop iran getting a nuclear weapon if i'm correct in this okay and that's an if i think i'm correct but if it's if it's the case it's sufficiently serious that we can't walk apart
the same time the question is if they don't agree to giving up nuclear capabilities what can we do well remember this long before this war was launched the united states attacked nuclear facilities in iran they failed to take them out apparently and this is what is made public and i have no idea if this is true or false or whatever
We believe that the United States believes that the nuclear capabilities have been based fundamentally underground, so deep that conventional weapons can't reach it, possibly so deep that a nuclear weapon couldn't keep it.
I don't know if that's true, but I think that's why they're not attacking the nuclear capability.
They can't reach them.
Therefore, if this is true, and assuming it's all rational, we're trying to put as much pain on Iran to capitulate on this issue.
The Iranians in response are trying to put as much pain as they can on the United States, as well as their allies in the rest of the world, in order to force us to stop.
So Iran has a great deal at stake.
It really has the regime itself.
Remember, there was an uprising, which is reported 20,000 to 40,000 people were killed when they put it out.
That was just a few, a month before the attacks occurred.
So there seems to be, have been,
Deep opposition to the current regime, which is the IRGC, the military force inside of it.
Iran, which is both an economic power, controls the businesses, as well as a military power.
So on the one side, there's a hope that the Iranian... There was a hope that the Iranians would rise up.
