Iran has already killed 20-95k iranians. Are you blaming Israel/mossad for this genocide?

Not sure how you made that leap. Like at all.
No. That is not even remotely what I mean.

Trump said 32k...other claims differ. We aren't there to count the bodies but it is probably much higher than that figure.

US SOFTENS ON IRAN URANIUM ENRICHMENT
The US has accepted Iran’s demand to continue uranium enrichment, according to a diplomat cited by Iranian Students’ News Agency.
Talks in Geneva reportedly ruled out a full halt to enrichment. Instead, negotiations focus on technical limits—such as where enrichment happens, at what level, and how many centrifuges Iran can use.
Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi confirmed the US is not seeking zero enrichment, saying both sides want a quick deal.
The discussions come as Donald Trump increases military pressure and considers possible strikes if no agreement is reached soon.
Both sides say progress has been made, but no date is set for the next round of talks.
The amount of military build up that has already happened makes me believe this to muddy the waters on strike timing.
Or it’s fake news. Don’t believe it’s been confirmed by an official US gov source

BREAKING: U.S. just accepted Iran can keep enriching uranium
After all that. 2 carrier groups. Military buildup. "You'll find out in 10 days." Planes landing in Portugal. The U.S. blinked first.
Iran always said zero enrichment is off the table.
They're negotiating technical details now: where, how much, how many centrifuges. Not whether Iran stops.
This is the opposite of what Trump demanded. He wanted total shutdown. Now they're haggling over the specs.

you have a cia/mossad led color revolution in progress in iran. don't believe anything that comes out of there. cia sent in a bunch of agent provocateurs with weapons into protest to create havoc. i understand over 500 police officers were killed. this is their excuse to regime change the country. just like libya and syria. trump only repeats what he is told and they lie to him.

The Iranian Foreign Minister, Abbas Araghchi, has stated the United States has not demanded "zero enrichment" and has accepted Iran's stance on continuing enrichment, with both parties reportedly drafting a framework for an expedited agreement (sources: NYT, Al Jazeera).
Conversely, U.S. officials refute these claims, maintaining that the absence of enrichment capacity remains a critical red line (White House, Times of Israel).
Discussions are ongoing amid prevailing tensions, no agreement has been reached to date.

I wonder if CIA/Mossad assets are stirring up the protests again to give us a pretext to go in ASAP.

Good post on the necessity of destroying Iran. Spoiler alert: it has nothing to do with Israel.
China is going to declare war on the U.S. in the next five years. They want vengeance on the white man for the Century of Humiliation. But unlike America, which can seal itself off from the outside world and be self-sufficient, China lacks key resources like oil that can sustain a military-industrial complex (or a modern economy, for that matter). Iran is one of their key sources of oil.
Smashing Iran cuts the legs out from under the Chinese war machine in the same way that the Anglo-Soviet invasion of Iran in the 40s caused irreparable harm to Nazi Germany. This is also why Trump black-bagged Maduro, wants to annex Canada and Greenland, killed USAID, and has been helping friendly right-wingers take power in Latin America. It's about shoring up our supply lines---"Fortress America"---while cutting China's.
BTW, there isn't going to be some Iraq-style invasion of Iran. Some of you were so utterly Raped during the Bush years that you have no conception of what it looks like when America fights a war to win. Iran is such a degenerate failed state (a literal gerontocracy run by men in their eighties, large sections of their population infertile due to STDs, a heroin epidemic) that we can probably just vaporize Khamenei from orbit, put Reza Pahlavi back on the throne, and that will be it.
China is already falling; their middle class is wiped out, the tariffs have crushed their economy, and we're no longer importing from them. Trump is giving them just a lil push.
quote:
China is critically dependent on imports and turning Iran would seriously change the calculus of something like a taiwan invasion.
The exiled former crown prince of iran (persia?) has been in the news recently, the funniest possible thing would be to black bag khomenei and reinstall the previous guy. That would make him an instant ally and also be a huge middle finger to the old american foreign policy order than trump is currently killing.
(the CIA did the iranian revolution in the 70s, right? this would be literally undoing all of their work. it would actually be a signal that you can have a predictable relationship with the US, we're no longer in the business of coup'ing you for no reason. Do business? Good. frick around? Find out.)
Venezuela was for aura (get fricked chavez) and oil, but I have also read that iran was setting up drone/missile factories there, and venezuela is in medium range strike distance of florida + makes the Caribbean hostile. If we had to respond to a china fight we'd need to move ships and supplies through panama but that's not safe if it's contested.
Noises about greenland are the same deal: shipping lanes (which are also navy logistics lanes)
I am not an expert in this region, but I would not be surprised to see some action in somalialand + there's something going on with saudi backed rebels in southern... yemen? That's both sides of the strait of hormuz, a potential setup for securing the suez.
I FULLY expect trump to take back the panama canal, and he won't be asking.

quote:There has to be some level of enrichment if there is to be any nuclear energy or scientific use. I was under the impression that the problem arose after the JCPOA withdrawal, at which point Iran stopped honoring the inspection agreements following massive U.S. sanctions. With no inspections, they were able to enrich without any deterrence.
If Trump agrees to any uranium enrichment in Iran, he will be remembered as another Obama. So there is a zero chance of that.
IIRC, the negotiations of last summer included restrictions to only the minimum enrichment levels necessary for energy but the demand for the dismantling of the ballistic missile program was the sticking point. I don’t recall what inspection parameters were discussed.

The enrichment really isnt the issue as there are legitimate uses for enriched uranium
If we are agreeing to a level of enrichment, it would almost assuredly be tied to a complete dismantling of their ballistic missile program plus independent monitoring
