The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

And then we could have done whatever we wanted. Like reinstate sanctions if they went after a nuclear weapons program again.

So after they'd built a bomb and got off sanctions...we'd reimpose sanctions again. Great plan.

You've continually misunderstood the JCPOA. The purpose of the deal was to push out their breakout time.

No. The deal was fatally flawed as I've pointed out 1000 times before. The point is that Iran as presently constituted should never have a nuclear weapon. The JCPOA at best kicked the can down the road. At best.

And it said NOTHING about their ballistic missile programs. You realize that all the pallets of cash Obama/Biden sent over there were funding that and their drone programs, right?

Yes. This is what we've been telling you. I was being facetious.

Good. Glad one of you just came out and said it, not that I agree with it at all. "We've" been repeating the talking points that CNN and whatever MSNBC has been calling itself nowadays.

As I've explained in the past, the government is focused on China and doing this now means we don't have as big of an Iranian threat at our backs when that kicks off. You're free to disagree - as you will - and that's your opinion.
