Here's a puzzle piece for you: The elites of Iran send their children to the US Ivy league schools. This confuses some members of their professional class.
After college, I was hired by SCE as a college intern at San Onofre Unit#1, wWater Make-up plant. I became friends with the computer analyst that was maintain the software that complied all the data form the germanium (HPGe) detectors. One day I ask him how much energy is given off from one fission of Uranium 235. He didn’t know so we had a tech sample the reactor coolant from the volume control tank and it analyzed and used the print out from all the isotopes. Each isotope had a signature energy peak so we tallied them up, did a quick energy calc and it equalled the latent energy to convert 1 cup(room Temp) of water to steam. Disclaimer, we assumed that all the isotopes listed were from 1 fusion.
There is a possibility that hasn't been presented here. Maybe atomic bombs were not used to kill the Japanese, but maybe they were still being studied and NOW there are nuclear bombs. To me, it doesn't matter - those in power have moved well past nuclear destruction already. We know that those in power seek to depopulate the proles in order to solidify their control, but radioactive destruction would leave the infrastructure in such disarray that, at least until robots are perfected, proles will be necessary to reconstruct at least the infrastructure necessary for those in power to enjoy their power. The radioactivity would leave large swaths of land unvisitable for generations. This bio-genetic warfare is so much cleaner and can be targetted to kill proles en masse in selected groups or even to kill individuals who may be problematic. Drone delivery makes that a much better option than widespread wanton destruction.
As far as this particular issue is concerned, I don't understand the need to attack or destroy anything. If the possibility of any particular country having nukes is so dangerous that it must be destroyed, why isn't the USA bombing Pakistan and India? I guess that one could say that the USA is friendly with both of those countries, but if that's the case, why doesn't the USA simply try to be friends with Iran? No sanctions, free trade, frequent friendly visits? Sure, there's a history there, but India and the UK have a colourful history as well and now there has been a UK Prime Minister of Indian ancestry.
Oh wait - but Iran threatens the USA best friend, Israel. So? Pakistan and India threaten each other all the time, and the USA is friends with both. Is there no diplomacy left in the world?
To think you can’t hide a big lie like fake nukes, remember 50 years ago when I was doing graduate work in Nuclear physics, virtually every leader in the field thought we knew so much we were within a few years of creating a Grand Unified Field Theory that could explain the entire Universe. They were so wrong, the Universe behaved exactly the opposite of what almost all physicists believed, they didn’t know what Dark Energy and Dark Matter where, which now represents 95% of the Universe. If you think you couldn’t hide something like fake Nukes when virtually the whole industry got 95% of the Universe wrong, I have a bridge to sell you.
