Trump's imposition of Tarriffs was illegal and unconstitutional.

But the US doesn't seem at all concerned?
They've recently crossed the ICBM range/ammount threshold to be able to overwhelm current US defences in the nuclear holocaust first-strike attack they've openly wanted to launch against US for decades. The Iranian regime had a fatwa against nukes until the recent war and nuke/icbm tech was at least a decade away from having a viable nuke as the US IEA reports prove.
In the last decade the NK stockpile of nukes and rapidly developing ICBM tech barely gets a mention by US or international community despite ongoing testing and major advances in range.
It would make sense if the goal of the Iran war was to harm Chinese and Russian influence and keep US the world superpower but US is allowing China and Russia to re-arm Iran and break the blockade at will so it's all a bit pointless waste of life and money unless you're Hesgeth/Pentagon staff who are more than happy to leak national security data and put troops lives at risk to beome multi-millionaires.

Wonder WHY Trump keeps "hinting" and emphasizing Iran won't get Nukes?
Well no surprise. Iran had nukes from Russia. Missile delivery was very very soon.
Iran plan was to corner the oil markets with key "elimination" limited nuke strikes!!
All making a little more sense now.

You realize that when a nuclear weapon detonates.
It releases a mix of radioactive materials and energy patterns that act like a "fingerprint."
If Russia or anyone else gave Iran nukes, the first time one was detonated, the nuclear forensics would be rather telling...

That and there's been tech around for a few decades at least to pinpoint loactions of enriched nuclear material so it can't fall into the wrong hands - a Physics prof at the Uni I used to work for had left a tiny ammount of plutonium unsecured in his office while on sabbatical without notifying anyone. It only took a couple of weeks for gov/local barracks to get in contact location of the tiny office it was in in a 300+room building and extract it to a secured location and it was only a couple of grams of material.
There's no evidence and no reason for Russia or China to supply Iran nukes as it would guarantee all out war between US, NATO and all African/ME countries they've been establishing military bases with - Russia and China have been supplying Iran with intel on US ships and troop locations but haven't hinted at supplying their own troops or their jets launching counter attacks on the US.
There's plenty of evidence Russia was shipping and continues to ship upgraded drones to Iran while China was and conotinues to ship MANPADS and similar as the contracts are public - there's never been any evidence or mention of nuke shipping and it's impossible to move stockpiles in secret; let alone ship them to an international pariah state of radical islamists who had a strict policy that nukes are haram/un-islamic and a fatwa against them before the current war.
If the US had any evidence Russia was planning to supply Iran with nukes then they'd have notified five eyes/NATO allies before launching the war without their knowlege as they would be guaranteed support. The conflict is so unpopular in the US that it makes no sense for the gov to sit on any evidence Russia were about to ship Iran nukes as if there was any the public would back it and Republicans walk the mid-terms.

I can factually state that there is much not being reported, much not being discussed, since my son is one of the deployed troops to somewhere.
And AS a former active-duty person myself yes, there are detectors and instruments used to track and monitor NBC weapons.
Our shop used to calibrate such instruments and pre-load the instruments to determine what to detect. They were used in Iraq and Afghanistan.
So just because it's not reported, doesn't mean that it hasn't happened.
You must develop the ability to be disliked in order to free yourself from the prison of other people's opinions.

I believe all of this is in reference to a member saying this came from a "deep rumor" with no sources.
Anything is possible in this world. Just because there isn't evidence of the contrary doesn't make a claim any more true. I don't see what the logical reason Russia would have to provide Iran nuclear weapons. There are far more ways they can support them without crossing such a line. Plus, the higher oil prices makes Russia one of the few beneficiaries in all of this.
Iran isn't some do or die ally for Russia.

Problem being that personal anecdotes don't equal evidence, DB.
Iran having nuclear weapons would require large-scale observable infrastructure.
And no credible intelligence or "International Atomic Energy Agency" reports confirm Iran possesses a nuclear capability.
North Korea, India, and Pakistan, on the other hand...
All very credible threats, same as China and Russia.
