Iranian opposition NCRI unveils new nuclear bomb-making site near Tehran. #Iran's regime has kept this area site a secret from the international community.

Obama/Biden's JCPOA did not block Tehran's path to nuclear weapons.

The new Sorkhe-Hesar site is located east of Tehran.

South of this site is the Khojir missile site where #Iran's ballistic missile program is based.

Mohsen Fakhrizadeh (man on the left with a white shirt) is the main individual behind Iran's #nuclear weapons drive.

#Iran's IRGC also constructed a #nuclear site in Abadeh in central Iran.

After the IRGC became aware the site had been revealed, it suddenly destroyed all the facilities in this site in July 2019, because those facilities could have proven tests related to nuclear weapons.
6)
June 2019 satellite imagery shows the facilities existed. However, they were razed to the ground completely by the IRGC in July 2019 after their revelations.

#Iran only allowed the IAEA access to the site on August 26, 2020, after a year of sanitization.

#Nuclear
7)
New revelations indicate #Iran has continued & expanded its nuclear weaponization work despite the 2015 nuclear deal.

The regime has launched new #nuclear sites, continues to hide & cheat, and the possible military dimension of Iran's nuclear program is more relevant now.
8)
Question:
How far along is #Iran's regime in its path to build an atomic bomb in this newly revealed #nuclear weapons site?

#Iran's program to build #nuclear weapons continues.

It was never dismantled in 2015 or afterwards. Iran's nuclear weaponization work continued before Obama/Biden's JCPOA (nuclear deal), during the negotiations & even after the JCPOA.

#Iran has been in non-compliance with the JCPOA since day one. The bigger picture is Iran's #nuclear weapons program.

The IAEA should request access to this new site as it is related to the "possible military dimension" of Iran's nuclear program.

Listen to this Iranian MP explain how Obama/Biden’s team gave them all they asked for.

Today is the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty.
#Iran has a population of 84 million.

Two thirds live in poverty.
Over half are in absolute poverty.
20 million live in slums.

#EndPoverty
2)
Remember how Obama/Biden allowed #Iran access to $150 bn in credit & $1.8 bn in cash?

Much of that money fueled terrorism.

Not a dime was spent on the people; many are literally seen searching in trash for something to sell or even eat.

#Iran has the world's 2nd largest natural gas & 4th largest crude oil reserves.

Obama/Biden provided this regime access to $150 billion in credit & $1.8 billion in unmarked cash.

And yet there is a shortage in cooking gas.

Questions is why did Iraqi security forces not take any measures to prevent this attack?

For the past four decades, the mullahs have left nothing but death in their wake. This theocratic fascist dictatorship has wrecked #Iran’s economy and turned this once-great nation into an int'l pariah.

The Obama/Biden admin was in bed with #Iran’s regime & its lobby group @NIACouncil, based on released emails.

“I have chatted with NIAC folks over the years”
“we do have a relationship with NIAC”

NIAC sought admin’s advice on paying President Clinton for a speech.
2)
NIAC is a lobby group in the U.S. pushing Iran’s talking points.

Listen to this Iranian regime insider explain that NIAC was established by @JZarif, the foreign minister of Iran's regime.

@tparsi is the official founder of NIAC in the U.S.

Listen to how he parrots Zarif’s talking points.

Those of us who said snapback will not be a self-executing mechanism turned out to be right. We also need to focus on making sure Tehran is isolated. We must address a whole range of issues that the regime is causing.

U.S. recognize it’s not punishing the people. There are humanitarian exemptions. If the regime was really thinking about the people, they could take the money they’re spending on terrorism/missiles & take care of the people.
