Even if they dont they should develop them immediately. Every nation should at this point.

I'm not a fan of more nuclear weapons per se, but now it seems that nuclear nations will invade any nation it wants.

Imagine if Ukraine kept their nukes

Even if they don't, they're trying to make them and that's a good enough excuse for uncle Sam.

If only there was some sort of deal of a nuclear variety involving Iran...

Oh whoopsies.

*sigh*

President Trump on Tuesday said Iran was "very close" to having a nuclear weapon, despite March testimony from Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard that Tehran was not building one.

[...]

Driving the news: When pressed on Gabbard's assessment by reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump replied, "I don't care what she said. I think they were very close to having" a nuclear weapon.

[...]

Gabbard, during her opening remarks at a House Intelligence Committee hearing in late March, said that "[t]he IC continues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and Supreme leader Khomeini has not authorized the nuclear weapons program that he suspended in 2003."

This meme makes no sense as no one is trying to stop Israel from having nukes?

To be fair, it does say "an evil regime", not "all evil regimes"

It does, but that's not the one you're going to war with.

The Terrorist State of Zionism in East Palestine has nukes.

Nazi America has nukes.

Russia has nukes.

India has nukes.

The ones who don't are victims.

Since when do gas weapons not count as WMDs?
