Unlike, India, Pakistan or, say, Israel, Iran is a ratifier of the non-proliferation treaty and subject to inspections making sure they don’t. Meanwhile Israel not only has had nukes for decades but also continually refuses any accountability for them.

Indeed, to venture off-topic, Israel has sought nuclear weapons for as long as it has existed, which one might plausibly construe as further evidence that their state was knowingly and willingly established by military force, without much pretense that it could ever persist otherwise.

They wouldn't be the only country that made nuclear weapons. Or are you proposing that every country that's ever manufactured nukes be bombed into dust? There are a lot of them.

The there are broad types of penalties prescribed in the NPT, which Iran is a party to.

Israel did that, are you okay with it?

Our own intelligence said they’re not making weapons.

They’ve said they’re not making weapons.

Trump pulled us out of a deal where we lifted sanctions in order to ensure there were no weapons.

This is embarrassing and outright illegal.
