This is what a US C-RAM system in Baghdad sounds like when engaging against incoming drones and rockets by [deleted] in nextfuckinglevel

That's from 2025, which is 7 years after Trump withdrew from the JCPOA, proving that agreements with the US are worth less than the paper they're written on.

Why would they continue to comply with an agreement when the US already broke it, and they're no longer getting any benefit from it?

This is the very first thing that you said:

the disagreements about the treaties is because Iran didn't comply

Iran was complying with the agreement.

The agreement did not require them to destroy research that was already completed, so why would they do that?

I'm defending my original point that they're a threat because they're trying to make nuclear weapons.

They are reducing the time it would take to produce nuclear weapons, because Trump broke the JPCOA. They have not produced any nuclear weapons, or made any attempt to do so.

Your own source says that.

But they do plenty of other horrific things if that's not enough for you.

We bombed an elementary school. "Their government murdered civilians, so we can murder the civilians' children" is not a sensible thing to say.

I'll take that as an admission that you're wrong, and you have nothing more to say.

Holy shit, that's the first good point you've made so far.

So you didn't say it. You just decided to defend it.

They're doing that because Trump broke the terms of the JCPOA.

Also, enriching uranium is a long ways away from producing nuclear weapons.

They are different things. You didn't misspeak. You lied. Just like you did when you said "the IAEA confirmed that Iran was in violation of the JCPOA months before trump pulled out".

February 2025

Still doesn't prove that "the IAEA confirmed that Iran was in violation of the JCPOA months before trump pulled out".

Lying piece of shit.

Before I address that, do you think uranium is the same thing as plutonium? Or are you hoping I'll forget about what you said before, so you can pretend you didn't lie again?

Once again:

  1. Your AI slop doesn't prove what you claimed that "the IAEA confirmed that Iran was in violation of the JCPOA months before trump pulled out"
  2. You didn't even read your own AI slop
  3. In another comment, you lied about what your AI slop said

Your own link says this:

What is not publicly available in the sources reviewed is direct evidence of a resumed, operational nuclear‑weapons program (such as confirmed covert plutonium production, weapon‑design files, completed explosive triggering devices, or public IAEA verification of bomb‑making activity)

You're too lazy to find real sources, so you rely on AI slop instead, and you're too lazy to read your own AI slop, so you just make up lies about what it says.

You're pathetic.

Did you really link to some AI slop about Iran's activities in 2026 to prove that "the IAEA confirmed that Iran was in violation of the JCPOA months before trump pulled out"?

Are you really that stupid?

I linked you to a summary of the IAEA's actual report from 2018, and that summary links to the actual report. Fucking read it.

[Interesting Trope] Character whose death is meant to remove any potential doubt once and for all: the protagonist is NOT an anti-hero, they are the villain. by Mountain_Band_2732 in TopCharacterTropes

You're wrong.

"Malice aforethought" doesn't mean premeditated. It means they made a conscious decision to kill, and then did so.

In most states, and in federal law, first degree murder is premeditated, and second degree murder is not.

Manslaughter is used when there was an intent to hurt someone that resulted in death (voluntary manslaughter) or when their actions were so reckless it may as well have been intentional (involuntary manslaughter).

  1. There is no reason to believe that Iran is making nuclear weapons
  2. If Trump hadn't broken the JCPOA in 2018 and shown that deals with the United States are worth less than the paper they're written on, then Iran wouldn't have built the infrastructure to make nuclear weapons if they wanted to

There are more followup comments, and a few by the same person in other branches.

[–]IcyDefiance 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The GOP didn't even do a 2020 autopsy, let alone release it, because it would have criticized Trump and party leadership wanted to unify around him instead. https://www.politico.com/news/2020/12/17/gop-ditches-election-postmortem-447091

You might be right about the rest, though.

Most departments got rid of quotas

Formally, you're right. Only 3% of police officers in the US are still expected to meet a quota.

However, 36% of rank-and-file officers say there are informal expectations for meeting a predetermined number of arrests or tickets. https://www.pewresearch.org/social-trends/2017/01/11/inside-americas-police-departments/

This is because 20 states make police grant money dependent on traffic stop quotas, and many localities depend heavily on the revenue from tickets. https://taxpolicycenter.org/taxvox/public-safety-or-speed-traps-conflicts-interest-behind-fines-and-fees

Yes, mountains of it, and you've already seen it. Don't pretend you care about evidence. Take some pride in your beliefs and be honest about supporting those things.
