    444 days were painful as well.

    Well then I apologize. That's not the way it was explained this morning on CNBC.

    Nothing like helping them fund their nuclear research with oil money.

    Remember back in 2008 when they were 2 years away from nuclear weapons. They seem to be hellbent on embarrassing the Intelligence community.

    Well, the market being flooded may very well be what he was after. After all, Iran is looking to double its exports now (more money on top of the aid we're to provide). Either way, it seems that US companies are at a disadvantage which is shitty.

    You talk like you have more than the remotest of clues about where the program is or that you've forgotten that the info you get is from politicians grandstanding.

    It is probably a war crime. But you know, Israel can do no wrong.

    All I know is the constant refrain was that they were 2 years away for most of the past 7 years.

    I disagree. There have been specific, targeted intelligence efforts to slow their development: from faulty hardware secretly planted in their black market supply chain to cyber attacks.

    No he talks about how sanctions were completely ineffective, so he can celebrate this grand accomplishment, yet in the same breath says those useless sanctions will serve as the deterrent for Iran to behave. Either the sanctions worked or they didn't. He can't have it both ways.

    Eh. We want to be detached.

    That probably would change the forecasted time frame somewhat.

    Among others - and we still don't know how far along they are.

    probably shouldn't worry about it anyway, what's the big deal?

    I'm not. I don't really care that the Israelis are concerned. I'm also fine with letting them handle business.

    He can, actually. I just explained how. It is like spanking a child. The spanking doesn't actually prevent them from dropping f-bombs or whatever, but it is a deterrent.

    If they still drop the bombs then it didn't deter them. So that being my grand backup plan when I try something different is idiotic.
