The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

How has this made it virtually impossible for Iran to acquire a nuclear bomb?

There is new information: that the Iranians *already had* enough fissile material to make not 1 bomb, but 11. They certainly haven't been enriching anything at any of the sites we blew up late last year.

So if they posed a danger to restart and rebuild their nuclear program before we went in two weeks ago, why will they pose any less of a danger to restart and rebuild their nuclear program once we stop actually bombing them?

Because again, the new info is that they do in fact have enough material to start making nukes. And after that, hanging it on a ballistic missile.
