Iran Must Acquire Nuclear Weapons
WANA (Sep 30) – In light of the ongoing massacre of Gaza and Lebanon by the Israeli regime, a serious question has emerged in public discourse: Is it not time for Iran to acquire nuclear weapons?
Israel, which has long been armed with nuclear weapons, feels no limitations in its actions. The genocide in Gaza continues without a strong reaction from the world’s major powers, while at the same time, this regime considers Iran its main enemy and openly threatens the Islamic Republic.
Under these circumstances, many analysts believe that Iran’s nuclear doctrine should be reconsidered, and acquiring nuclear weapons could serve as a strategic tool for deterrence against such threats.
Iran Rejects U.S. Allegations of Nuclear Weapon Development
WANA (Aug 22) – Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesperson, Nasser Kanaani, has dismissed recent statements by U.S. officials suggesting that Iran could potentially acquire nuclear weapons in the near future. Kanaani reaffirmed that nuclear weapons have never been part of Iran’s defense and security doctrine, describing these allegations as a continuation of the “Iranophobia” campaign, […]
In the past, any discussion of Iran’s nuclear weapons was met with negative reactions and serious warnings from major powers. However, today, given Israel’s aggressive actions and genocidal behavior, the situation has changed in such a way that even some international circles acknowledge Iran’s right to consider more serious options, including nuclear weapons, in the face of threats.
For instance, Western media analyses have noted that Israel, with its nuclear arsenal, acts as a regional threat. From this perspective, if Iran decides to change its nuclear doctrine, this shift would be understood as a defensive and rational response to a regime that uses nuclear weapons to further its policies.
In fact, a global understanding has emerged that Iran, facing direct threats from a genocidal regime armed with nuclear weapons, may be forced to reconsider its nuclear policies.
International analysts, such as Ilan Berman, also point out that any change in Iran’s nuclear doctrine would be met with greater acceptance on the global stage than in the past.
What is the likelihood of Israel attacking Iran’s nuclear facilities?
WANA (Apr 12) – Israelis declare that if the Islamic Republic of Iran directly attacks Israel, they will strike Iran’s nuclear facilities. Is this attack feasible and effective for Tel Aviv? The direct distance from Iran’s nuclear facilities to Israeli air bases is about 1600 kilometers, meaning if regime aircraft want to reach there, […]
This prominent American analyst argues that the world is currently witnessing a strategic imbalance in the region, and Iran has the right to take necessary measures to defend itself against existing threats. This stance reflects a shift in some international circles, which were previously staunchly opposed to any Iranian move toward nuclear weapons.
As global powers remain silent in the face of Israel’s crimes, the question arises: Is acquiring nuclear weapons truly the best way to ensure security and defend the country’s territorial integrity? When Iran’s enemies continue their massacres without any restrictions and consider themselves above international law, it seems logical that Iran should have similar tools to defend itself.
Given regional developments and the failure of international institutions to curb the Israeli regime’s behaviour, any change in Iran’s nuclear doctrine, if it happens, will be interpreted as a legitimate and understandable defensive decision on the international stage.
Iran can leverage this global acceptance to strengthen its position and, by changing its doctrine, achieve a balance of power against existing threats.
