In this new world we live in, the Iranian regime is trustworthy.

They never threatened Israel - those are merely mistranslations. Each of the scores of instances: mistranslations.

Israel, with its nuclear arsenal and its ability to annihilate Iran in moments with barely a thought, has always been the antagonist and aggressor. Israel, a postage stamp of a nation two countries over and still surrounded by others sworn to destroy it, somehow poses an existential threat to Iran.

And here's the latest logic Superpretzel: Iran is so threatened by Israel and its nukes that it also needs nukes, so this deal merely evens the playing field in the Middle East and protects Iran from those bloodthirsty Jews. But this deal, we are told, is to prevent Iran from getting nukes, and in any case we were repeatedly assured over the years that not only does Iran have NOT nukes, but it absolutely has no aspirations to build any. Its nuclear program was and is completely based on energy production.

Why would this deal be necessary if Iran didn't have a robust research program devoted to developing nuclear weapons?

Mind you - anyone who points any of this out is a warmonger who only wants war and who should go sign up blahblahblah. This is the same logic applied by teenyboppers when someone questions their puppy love.
