Why do you think that this is true?

1. Well, why would they stop enriching? There is but one reason to enrich uranium to 60% and higher.... unless you're suggesting they were going to build a nuclear powered submarine or aircraft carrier. We were willing to give them the fuel to do this if it was their intent.

2. Literally no one has denied it for years now, including governments around the world both left and right leaning.

3. While I do realize that this is Iran we're talking about, but generally speaking world leaders don't make such bold claims of having nuclear materials, their desire to have nuclear weapons, and their willingness and even their desire to use them without a full willingness to back those claims up. Maybe it's just me, but I take that seriously.

So yes, I believe they have the materials, the technology, and the desire to make and use nuclear weapons.

Our alternative option is to throw the bullshite flag on them and hope for the best while continuing to kick the can down the road, or to try to end the threats once and for all. But one way or another, this situation was going to come to a head in the fairly near future.
