    There's that, but his ability to do something like that is largely connected to having nukes. Theoretically, he might be able to accomplish the same via conventional forces, but it's less likely.

    Because it doesn't make sense that they would stop. If you were in their position, would you actually stop development of nukes knowing that the US has always had an interest in regime change there?

    I find it extremely hard to believe that they were actually complying, especially after Israel revealed certain things.

    Cool. The US, UK, Germany, Russia, China, and France all thought Iran was upholding their end of the Bargain. I tend to agree with them.
    Yes ... "especially after Israel revealed certain things". Israel says they are ready to go to War with Iran until the Last American Soldier. So, I'm thinking they may be biased.

    I'm not against Iran having nukes, but I am against paying them loads of money for a deal that was only superficial.
    Of course you're going to get the tired old mantra that it was their money!! There isn't going to be a war because the Iranians now know that wherever they go they can be zapped by a drone.

    So what, why was it frozen in the first place?

    Didn't trump say that everyone should have the bomb?

    Sure, they're biased, but their bias usually is in the U.S.'s favor.

    Look at North Korea. If lil Kim didn't have nukes, he'd be gone by now.

    When Gaddafi got rid of his program, he was removed shortly thereafter.
    You seriously think its nukes? and not the fact that China is in the border of NK and the second strongest power in the world is not going to let their border be destabilized while Iran is a shithole in the middle of nowhere.

    yes but again the agreement had nothing to do with the fact that they were still fighting proxy wars with the US throughout the region. As Ben Shapiro said its like finding a patient with Cancer and a Cold. Declaring the cold cured and saying the patient is good to go while doing nothing about the Cancer.

    I'll put it this way. For the right price, I think China would be willing to take over North Korea.

    China certainly plays a part in why we haven't taken over North Korea, but relations between China and North Korea have been declining for a while now.

    Now you mention China would be willing to take over NK. Sure. Would they be willing to let the US do it?


    Nukes or no nukes. There is no scenario that the US would go into NK.

    Fair enough, but the nuke logic still applies to Iran, and it clearly applied to Libya.

    Libya was a europan thing that Obama was weak willed enough to get dragged into. To his credit he did resist a lot which is why the islamic republics had to pass a resolution that it was ok for the US to bomb libya.
