The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said Wednesday that Iran has accelerated its enrichment of uranium since the election of President Donald Trump in November, apparently racing toward a nuclear weapon before he can stop it.
Israeli foreign minister Gideon Sa’ar said that Iran already had enough nuclear material to produce a “couple of bombs,” according to the Jerusalem Post. Iran has no air defenses that could stop an Israeli or American attack, thanks to its decision to launch massive ballistic missile attacks against Israel last year, which ultimately led to Israel counter-attacking by destroying Iranian surface-to-air (SAM) missile batteries, radar systems, and nuclear research facilities.
