There were a few things that stood out," Roman said, referencing activity at the Times Enrichment facility. "Iran reactivated an explosives manufacturing line, which could only be used to help that needed nuclear weapon…
efforts to put the fissile material into a shape which could be used for a nuclear weapon – that was reactivated as well." Roman added that these developments mirrored work Iran halted in 2003, when it froze its military nuclear program.
Experts believe Iran is enriching uranium to 60%, which puts it just below the 90% needed for a nuclear weapon, and have said there is no civilian use for 60% enriched uranium.

Well frickin Bibi today said they are 3-12 months away and your hand picked DNI said our entire intelligence community's assessment is that they aren't even developing a nuclear weapon.
Show receipts or frick off neocon propaganda.

You are deliberately misstating the DNI if you’re referring to her March statement.
What’s neocon propaganda exactly?

Gabbard stated that the intelligence community "continues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has not authorized the nuclear weapons program he suspended in 2003."

As recently as 25 March, Tulsi Gabbard, the US director of national intelligence, told the Senate intelligence committee that the American intelligence community had assessed that Iran was not actively pursuing a nuclear weapon. However, Gabbard added that in the past years, there would appear to have been “an erosion of a decades-long taboo in Iran on discussing nuclear weapons in public, likely emboldening nuclear weapons advocates within Iran’s decision-making apparatus”. She added: “Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile is at its highest levels and is unprecedented for a state without nuclear weapons.” A 22-page report declassified by the IAEA board this week did not say Iran was so close to a nuclear weapon. It said it had been unable to see aspects of Iran’s civil nuclear programme, and believed Tehran had repeatedly failed to cooperate
Those operative words getcha every time

They are not building a weapon and don't have a weapons program.

Wrong. “Actively”, you retarded alter muppet. The President says they are, 3 months after your woman who acknowledged they were in an unprecedented preparatory phase

By neocon propaganda do you mean Trump's social media accounts?

This is a neocon?

A neocon, short for neoconservative, is someone who adheres to the political ideology of neoconservatism, a form of American conservatism that emphasizes an aggressive and interventionist foreign policy. Neoconservatives advocate for promoting democracy globally, often through the use of military power
If so you are a bigger idiot than any of us thought.

Well, your reputable, unassailable UN says different...
Read it and Weep
quote:
Iran said it has built and will activate a third nuclear enrichment facility, ratcheting up tensions with the U.N. on Thursday immediately after its atomic watchdog agency censured Iran for failing to comply with nonproliferation obligations meant to prevent it from developing a nuclear weapon.
Hours later, Israel said it had attacked Iranian nuclear targets. As explosions were heard across Tehran early Friday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the strikes would continue for as long as it would take “to remove this threat.”
The censure by the International Atomic Energy Agency, its first in 20 years over Iranian non-compliance, could set in motion an effort to restore sanctions on Iran later this year.

The incredible politically diverse coalition Trump built to get elected is about to shatter.
The democrats and their CIA cohorts are going to ruin his presidency before the end of his first year.
At this rate I would not be shock to see Tulsi resign soon

Why?
Because Trump basically blasted a reporter's misleading question about her prior statement that, as noted, was three months ago and was not a statement Iran wasn't developing nukea?
Last I checked, the US was not in a war with Iran.

I think Tulsi would resign if we unnecessarily went into war because of her core principles. If not, she’s a hypocrite, and I don’t believe she is.

Again, we aren't at war w/ Iran and she's an important voice in those discussions.

So what changed in 4-5 days of Israel attacking?
Wasn't a big thing a week ago and they were months if not a year away from it. Now Israel bombs them and all of a sudden its very close
Is there new intelligence? Defector?

Did the ysend General Powell CBS to give them his expert opinion?
What a disappointment that Trump is yet again being lead around by the nose by the deep state.
This country is doomed.

We’ve both known this and been talking about this for many years now. It’s not new. Of course they are closer today than ever before, and tomorrow will be even that much closer until one day they have it, and then they’ll hold the world hostage with it and their nutball ideology, or simply push start WWIII after attacking Israel with one, and then we can all say “We should have done something when we had a chance…We should have done something…”
