Iran set to dramatically increase uranium enrichment
Iran set to dramatically increase uranium enrichment
The expansion underway at the Fordow underground plant alone could allow Iran to accumulate several bombs' worth of nuclear fuel every month, according to The Washington Post.
Smart move.
Best of luck to our neighbours across the Arabian Gulf. Iran has the right to defend iself.
No doubt
If Iran gets nukes, there will be pressure on rival countries in the region to develop nuclear weapons. Nuclear proliferation is always bad news. This is nothing to cheer on, no matter who you side with.
Opening the floodgates will be good news for the region though. If Iraq or Libya had nukes they wouldn't have been bombed and invaded. I don't want to see Iran bombed or invaded. I am from Saudi Arabia, it is in my best interest for Iran to be strong and stable, rival or not, Iran having nukes does that. Of course I also think that Saudi Arabia should have nukes too.
Every country that has nukes means more risk that some loose cannon sets off a nuke. That is why nuclear non-proliferation agreements are so important.
To demonstrate, what if Saddam and Iran had had nukes during the Iran-Iraq War? Saddam used chemical weapons against the Kurds. Would he use nukes? I genuinely don't know, the man was apparently a psychopath. Would you actually want someone like that to have nukes?
Nuclear proliferation is always bad news.
It's a gamble. Knowing other countries can kill you personally would dissuade leaders from starting wars. Assuming no one makes a mistake, of course.
Though given western aggression, I can't say I blame them tbh. It's how the DPRK has avoided being invaded by the west. I just wish American and all its puppets would would fuck right off and stop starting shit just to keep its shareholders happy.
Because at the end of the day, it's some guy who needs to earn a living being told to kill some other guy who needs to earn a living, just so some rich removed can keep control over a bunch of people who are just trying to earn a living.
