If budgets are what interest you, maybe consider why Iran spent over $500B developing offensive nuclear weapons. Instead of peaceful pursuits or defenses against its supposed aggressor over 1,000 miles away.
- gravisultra 8mo agoBudgets using my money interest me. Do you have a source for that $500B claim?
- krisoft 8mo ago> maybe consider why Iran spent over $500B developing offensive nuclear weapons. To protect themselves from the exact scenairo happening right now? The reason why Putin is sleeping peacefully in his bed while Khamenei is dead under rubble is that one has nuclear deterent while the other din't have that protection. > supposed aggressor I don’t know if there is anything “supposed” about that aggressor given the present situation.
- mhb 8mo agoRight. Because Israel is finally fulfilling its aspiration to annex a country 1,000 miles away. Do you think history started two days ago? Maybe the Israelis are idiots, but it would seem so much more practical to attack closer countries first - Saudi Arabia, Egypt, etc. I wonder why they aren't?
- Hikikomori 8mo agoIraq and Iran has been netanyahus goal for 4 decades. Remember him lying to congress about wmd as the Iraq invasion started.
- Aerbil313 8mo ago"Offensive" nuclear weapons are necessary for MAD to work. North Korea, even with a starving population, is untouchable just because they managed to steal nuclear tech from U.S. many decaddes ago.
