It’s been interesting to watch the official narrative on Iran shift from anti government protests (Wikipedia) by Iranians to one about nuclear enrichment. There’s no reason to think Iran doesn’t already have enough enriched uranium to make a weapon. The following is a post from 21 June 2025.
On 21 June 2025 the US joined the Israeli Iran missile conflict by bombing the three major Iranian nuclear processing sites (AP). The touted bunker buster bomb was dropped on the Fordow nuclear enrichment site buried deep beneath the ground.
Trump claimed the Fordow site was “obliterated” (Axios) but it’s too early to make that call (Tressa Guenov).
Speaking of time; the US strikes come on the 9th day of the Israel Iran crisis and 21 days after the International Atomic Energy Administration report dated 31 May 2025.
“Iran can convert its current stock of 60 percent enriched uranium into 233 kg of WGU in three weeks at the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant (FFEP), enough for 9 nuclear weapons, taken as 25 kg of weapon-grade uranium (WGU) per weapon. Iran could produce its first quantity of 25 kg of WGU in Fordow in as little as two to three days.” Institute for Science and International Security
