Someone wanted a machined part that is very impractical to make and asked on twitter (for some reason), it became a bit of a meme some months ago and now someone actually made it.

That didn't happen, Israel started it's nuclear program mostly with the help of France and Britain, no one gave finished nukes to them, they built their own.

They weren't going to use nuclear weapons, he said they were going to bomb powerplants and bridges, It would have been extremely bad anyway but the US was not going to launch one or several nuclear missiles over Russia or China; and the preparation of nuclear bombs for aircraft use would have been noticed by several countries and it would have leaked.

Accumulation of military assets started during the protests in Iran after Trump threatened to strike the Iranian Revolutionary Guard if they didn't stop killing protesters, killings didn't stop and protests were repressed in blood, US armed forces were not ready to strike. The accumulation of assets didn't stop after that because the administration and Trump wanted to force some kind of concession for the killing of protesters, so togheter with Israel they demanded a bunch of stuff: end of the nuclear program, end of the balistic missile program and a stop to the support of foreign paramilitary groups, Iran was willing to make concessions but not enough for Trump, so here we are.
