As a nuclear war expert, Mr. Sagan should be aware that the Biden administration did not take the opportunity to get Iran back to not pursuing nukes, because that would have meant holding up the Amerikan end of the deal and ending or at least easing sanctions on them. That's why Trump broke the treaty in the first place, because Iran complying was supposed to be rewarded with a lifting of US sanctions and Trump didn't want that. And Biden didn't want that, either, and instead chose to further drive home the point that you cannot trust any agreement with the US. And these people are wondering why their empire is in decay. They think they can brute force their way through anything, and it will be their downfall.

Based on the quality of the 'analysis' I can only assume "I study nuclear war" is just his way of saying "I've played a lot of Fallout"

Do you want a President Kamala Harris who supports Israel, but has expressed doubts about the way Israel is fighting its wars today?

What did these doubts do to prevent Israel from invading Lebanon, Scott?

Do you want a President Harris, a former prosecutor known to stay calm and focused under pressure?

You mean the one whose 2020 campaign was so chaotic and disorganized staff were reportedly constantly at each other's throats? That calm and focused individual?

Everyone getting paid to write something about the election is so visibly untethered from reality that it's a miracle that gravity still applies to them.

this guy brings shame to the name Sagan

What the fuck does he study anyway? There's one example in history of nukes being used and a couple examples of nukes being stopped by individual discretion by people in a military chain of command. That's it.

Iran is currently abiding by a fatwa by the Supreme Leader prohibiting the production, acquisition and use of nuclear weapons. It hasn't been revoked even after the US withdrew from all agreements. They have all they need to construct a nuclear bomb very quickly, but you don't go against a fatwa in Iran. Luckily the western world is doing all it can to reassure Iran that this was the correct decision and they do not need a nuclear weapon.

I study nuclear war

Me bunking off Uni lectures to play Fallout: New Vegas back in the day

If its dangerously high, its due to belligerence and general inhumanity of the dems, who haven't reversed jerusalem embassy, haven't torn up abraham framework, haven't restored jcpoa and now gleefully finance genocide. And the danger comes from nazis in pissrael, who both have an ability and might get a motive soon. How about you eat shit and die, scott sagan?

Pretend i did the “isnt there somone you forgot to ask?” and its brandon and bibi saying “i want iran to build the bomb” and Khomeini is in the jesus role

nuclear war expert

So Scott, which nuclear bombing was your favorite, the one the US threw at Hiroshima or the one the US threw at Nagasaki?

Real "Smarties Expert" vibes

There's a tagline about a user here that was talking about how they're a nuclear scientist at a big name university and didn't believe nuclear was a real threat.

That's my favorite site tagline.

Anyways, that's what this opinion piece is giving. Very hexbear-esqe post.

Pushing Iran, specifically Khameini, towards heavier and heavier deterrence is a great idea!!!!

Genuinely if a nuke goes off in the middle east it'll be by Israel FIRST and it'll be done with the full support of Kamala Harris, whether she is president or not. She'll likely stage a Jan 6th style rebellion to break into the oval office to press the fucking button herself.

was the little war profiteer's puppet master and they transcend the Dem/Rep divide.

More so Trump was made viable by and the Pied Piper Strategy .

Trump's 2016 major briber was an AI trading algorithm company Renaissance Technologies They were also Hillary's #3 briber, and paid Bolton $3 million via the "John Bolton Super Pac" / slush fund.

was the one to push to trash all the treaties and go to Putin to say "no more olive branches"

Both major parties and their bribers are servants of Wall Street, the Military Industrial Complex, and fascists.

In Polish, "sagan" means a big pot. This one is empty and have a big hole. Shiny handle though.

I mean to be fair, that was actually a decent deal iirc and would have also helped with the US reducing sanctions on Iran if it was still in effect.

Trump absolutely does suck for that one.

Obviously not arguing with your point about Israel being the belligerent, just adding.
