President Trump swore that he had “obliterated” Iran’s nuclear program last summer. Has Iran's nuclear program been destroyed or is it hidden?

Did the US Really Destroy Iran’s Nuclear Program?

I'm no expert, but the uranium wasn't destroyed. Either Iran had sufficient warning and removed it before the bombing, or else, the bombing caused the tunnels and rooms to collapse, and the uranium was mixed with 10,000 to 100,000 tons of earth. Recovery is no different than mining and extracting gold or other metals from low-grade ore. That might cost $20 million, which is less than the $100 million the USA spent bombing. Recovery may take a month, so either way, Iran has the uranium.

He set them back


The situation in Iran isn’t new it’s a sequence of events


First the IDF’s heavy bombarding of Hamas in Gaza (Iran’s proxy cell)
Then the same in Lebanon targeting Hezbollah
Then the fall of Al Assad’s regime
Then the nuclear factory bombardings
And now the instigation of civil riots to turned bloody to take down the regime


None of these events is random or isolated


It’s all part of a grander plan and it’s being executed to perfection

[CalmUntilAbused]

Even if it was destroyed, we now know China is actively supplying Iran with military equipment, they might as well help Iran with the recovery. While I am inclined to believe Trump, I sure do hope He was mistaken this time. Iran should get nuclear weapons ASAP, given their hostile almost-neighbour.

[CrystalPeak]

Since no one on this site would possibly have a clue how to answer your question, the answers will be based on how much they hate Trump. Other than that, they will just make up their own their own story.


I do Feel fairly confident that Trump damaged their nuclear ambitions more than Biden, because Biden didn’t do anything.

[Kelley1]

Good answer.

[LeatherDame]

Parts of it we’re destroyed but the uranium stock piles were not and they still have the capacity to attain a bomb within something like weeks to months of concentrated effort.

[Jersey2]

The US is negotiating with them to give the uranium up. That is the real reason the fleet is offshore of Iran.

[jshm2]

Trump lies about everything. So you should never take him seriously.

As for Iran, you seem to forget it is the Ayatollah who is above the president, and he says "no nuclear weapon production".

So I am more inclined to believe him, than a convicted felon and known liar like Trump.

Iran has never said it doesn't have nuclear fuel - it's how it makes energy and medical isotopes - What it denies is having intentions to make bombs.

It's like having a licenced firearm. But the state demanding you give it up based on their unproven assertions.

i have a feeling that it's not all gone. the jews are going to say when. america will or won't play along. the government will, but will the military? we already saw some pushback for greenland, so hopefully the generals have mutinied enough to tell him that they aren't going to do his bidding.

[Friendlybro79]

The Israeli government... not the Jews.. that's like saying the Christians... when the majority of the US government plays a role in anything. Just sharing this because many people conflate Israel with all Jews. Despite it being a Jewish and democratic state, which I understand why it's easy to confuse, but they don't represent all Jewish people around the world.

[Sevenpointfive]

@Friendlybro79 not every single jew. just the majority. and i don't recognize the state of israel. so those are european jews.

[Sevenpointfive]

and i am absolutely blaming the evangelical christians for america's actions. they are complicit.

[NathanDavis]

nuclear facilities are not the same as "the nuclear program"

one thing is for sure though... the top 20 nuclear scientists (that have survived and still alive) in Iran are all hiding from the USA and Israel, and that is for sure

[permanentem]

The Quran is being destroyed... Islam is being dismantled. The rate of apostasy is through the roof and Iranians are converting to Christianity in large numbers. So regardless of if you think Iran has uranium or not, it's irrelevant. When Islam dies, Iran no longer has motivation to attack Christian nations.

[NYCQuestions1976]

It's likely a combination of both destroyed and hidden. The nuclear facilities and infrastructure were destroyed, but the uranium itself was probably buried in the bombings.

[DryGermanGuy]

The Iranians aren’t exactly simple savages in the African hinterlands, they know how to protect such military programs. I’m sure without boots on the ground, there is no real destruction possible, not even gathering real status informations.

[lightbulb27]

he blew the crap out of it... delaying it.

but it will be back.

[Abbycado]

Why would he be negotiating to end it if he destroyed it?

Making money online more than $15k just by doing simple work from home. I have received $18376 last month. Its an easy and simple job to do and its earnings are much better than regular office job and. even a little child can do this and earns money. Everybody must try this job by.

[Surely]

I guess the question on Iran’s nuclear program would depend upon how good Trump’s intelligence was.

[RavVid]

As Iran has uranium deposits the programme could only be obliterated for a period of time.

So if the context is short term or long term the answer is different.

[Dargil]

I don't think it is 100% eliminated, but it has been set back so far that it probably can't recover. And if we have to send in b21 bombers this time, we will. And Iran has no air defenses..

[Dargil]

If the populist movement in Iran cannot liberate the country, The United States will help them along. And you can take that one to the bank.

[Pterodon]

It’s out of action but knowing them they’ll try and rebuild

[888theGreat]

It was not destroyed , barely damaged , another lie of many by Trump.

[Alex-Snow]

Do you really believe everything that the idiot has to say.
. I don't

[exitseven]

Intel says it is destroyed.

[888theGreat]

Intel said it wasn't much damage

[exitseven]

@888theGreat CNN's intel said that. The dept of War says otherwise.

[Mike_Hum]

We can go back if you want.

[beefcakebradybatson]

Like I believe ANYTHING Trump says !!!

[Massageman]

hidden, of course.
