February 28, 2026 at 6:40 am EST By Taegan Goddard
New York Times: As they made their public case for another American military campaign against Iran, President Trump and his aides asserted that Iran had restarted its nuclear program, had enough available nuclear material to build a bomb within days and was developing long-range missiles that will soon be capable of hitting the United States.
All three of these claims are either false or unproven.

(1,850 posts)2. Don't they already have nukes?
I can't remember.
So I looked it up. The answer appears to be "no" unless they are being hidden or smuggled in.

(34,845 posts)3. I guess he was lying when he said he destroyed their nuclear program?
Which he has done on NUMEROUS occasions. (Bob Cesca has the receipts, and played them on his podcast this past Tuesday, for those who don't believe it.) The lying part is a given, then as it is now. This is a "Wag the Dog" war. He thinks he's going to distract from the Epstein shit with this. But, it ain't going away, no matter what he does. And, it's beyond sickening that even more people are going to die or be maimed for life because of this disgusting fuckwit's attempted cover-up.
Time to start leaking the Epstein evidence. (Actually, it's long past time...)
