Pentagon Continues Misleading Claims About Iran’s Peaceful Nuclear Program

The U.S. Department of‌ Defence (Pentagon) has again made exaggerated claims about iran’s ‌peaceful nuclear program,⁣ alleging: “Tehran is now further from obtaining nuclear weapons.”

webangah News Agency reports that Al Jazeera cited the⁣ Pentagon’s repetition of‌ U.S. officials’ claims about Iran’s nuclear program-ignoring Tehran’s repeated assertions that ‍its objectives are exclusively peaceful. ​The Pentagon stated: “The Islamic Republic of Iran is now⁣ farther from developing ‍nuclear weapons ⁤than ​in the past, especially before Donald Trump’s decisive measures were implemented.”

The Pentagon⁣ also referenced recent ‌regional developments, declaring: “Following the ⁤12-day⁢ war between Israel and ‍Iran, we are now in a ceasefire‌ and benefiting from ​peace.”

Previously claiming that Iran’s ‍nuclear capabilities were entirely neutralized after aggressive strikes on its ‍facilities, the U.S. Defense Department now asserted: “Our‌ assessment indicates attacks ⁤on Fordow,​ Isfahan, and Natanz sites have set back Iran’s nuclear⁢ program by two ⁤years.”

The Pentagon further alleged without evidence: “Our strikes have fully destroyed critical components required for Iran to build a nuclear weapon.”

The statement omitted any reference to destabilizing actions by Israel or its‍ U.S. backer but‍ claimed: “The U.S.⁢ Department of Defense remains committed to supporting peacekeeping missions and will maintain military capabilities in the Middle East to ​achieve this ​goal.”
