US intelligence knows the reasons why they’re stalling and the window is closing. They currently have ballistic missiles that can reach Europe but they are supposedly a week away from having some that can reach US. The F22’s aren’t sitting in Israel as a show of force. Iran has hours until the attack starts.
Is Iran’s nuclear material not sitting under a pile of rubble right now?

It’s not about nukes. It’s about regime change

Exactly. The negotiations are a publicity thing that has to be played out so we can say "See we tried."
There has never been a better time than now to collapse the IRGC and the Mullahs in Iran. If it is not done now, it may be another 47 years before it is possible to do so again. They are at their weakest they have ever been since the conclusion the 12 day war and the bombing of Fordow.
Getting rid of the current regime accomplishes a lot of goals:
1. Stops Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.
2. Removes a hostile agent in the region that has funded multiple terror groups in multiple countries in the Middle East and across the globe.
3. Ends constant attacks on Israel or constant planning to fund attacks against Israel and may bring some sort of long lasting peace to the region.
4. Puts a serious dent on Chinese and Russian influence in the area.
5. Stabilizes the middle east economies and removes the threat of Iran blocking the straight of Hormuz, thus affect shipping lanes for the movement of goods and materials (oil)
6. Without Iranian financial backing, it may lead to the eventual dissolution of groups like Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis, which may in turn lead to countries like Lebanon and Yemen to stabilize and possibly become more secular.

This is one of the dumbest things I e read on here in a while.
You have to be trolling.

You think that was all they had?
Good thing you’re just a key board warrior here and not serving in some decision making capacity.

This. For bigger reasons than just Iran internally.

Posting classified info here?
What is this, signal?
Additionally, if you think this is about missiles and nukes you’d be wrong.

Decatur, this is closer to the truth than what do you think the reasoning is. If you take a couple bullet points from this breakdown and expand upon them further there is your actual answer.
I’ll leave you to use that big brain of yours and figure it out.

How do you suppose we effect regime change with just air power? Who believes that’s possible?

The hope is that the population rises up and a conducts the coup themselves but I think it will take boots on the ground. Probably a very large contingent of SOF troops and likely some conventional forces as too.

Inside the diplomatic framework it’s about nuclear material with scope creep to ballistic missiles which Iran refuses to talk about.
Outside of diplomatic negotiations it’s about regime change.

The Gerald Ford aircraft carrier left Crete this morning. Should be off the coast of Israel soon.

Again from the Chinese perspective, which can’t be stated enough:
