The Pentagon has halted shipments of critical US Patriot air defence systems and other precision weapons to Ukraine after concern that US stockpiles are running too low, prompting alarm in Kyiv.
At the end of last week’s Nato summit, Donald Trump hinted that supplies of Patriot missile interceptors were running down because some had been supplied to Israel, though he suggested he would like to help Kyiv.
After a meeting with Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the US president acknowledged that Ukraine did “want to have the anti-missile systems, as they call the Patriots, and we’re going to see if we can make some available”.
But Trump added: “They’re very hard to get. We need them. We were supplying them to Israel,” implying that supporting Israel in its war with Iran – a priority for the Republican administration – had set back its willingness to help Kyiv.
The only reason for enrichment to that level is because it is a step towards a weapon. Iran publicly said they were doing it as a response to an attack.
Imagine this scenario:
“Japan bombs Pearl Harbor”
Roosevelt radio address : “In response to the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the US is going to spend $30 Billion to begin enriching Uranium in a top secret location.”
Japanese citizens: “The US is spending billions enriching Uranium in top secret locations for no reason. They don’t have a bomb yet so you can’t say it’s for a weapon.”
Come on.
False. When you claim something you should back it up with clear proofs. Besides israel known for lying and trump cite me a single reputable party that explicitly say iran made the decision to build nuke.
If you can’t just stop being stubborn and move on
I gave you an analogy. You can’t say a hypothetical analogy is false
They explicitly said they were enriching Uranium as a response to Trump’s attack.
You are so dumb. I didn’t ask about them continuing enrichement . Answer the question where did you see that they are making nukes ?
Insults because you don’t have an argument.
Where in my analogy did Roosevelt say they were making a bomb? Do you apply the same rules to everyone? When Trump annouced that he’s building concentration camps did you defend him saying, “He didn’t call it a concentration camp.” I bet you did.
Iran responded to a military attack by announcing Uranium enrichment. They’re not stupid. They wouldn’t say, “We are building a bomb.” when there is opportunity for negotiations before it gets to that.
