Q: Hi @grok, why is Israel the only country in the Middle East who are allowed to have nuclear weapons?
Grok A: Israel's unique nuclear status in the Middle East stems from historical threats prompting its program in the 1950s-60s, bolstered by U.S. support and a policy of ambiguity. As a non-NPT signatory, it avoids inspections, unlike other regional states bound by the treaty.
Other Middle Eastern countries face:
1. NPT obligations and sanctions
2. Economic and technical barriers
3. Security reliance on allies like the U.S.
Israel's stance fuels regional tension, with some arguing it justifies their nuclear ambitions, though international norms deter proliferation. The issue remains complex and debated.

#Trump war against #Iran
Now the US is backtracking ...
Trump on Sunday declared the operation a “success,” and said that Iran’s nuclear enrichment facilities were “completely and totally obliterated.”
A senior U.S. official similarly acknowledged that the American strike on the Fordo site did not destroy the heavily fortified facility but said the strike had severely damaged it, taking it “off the table.” The person noted that even 12 bunker-busting bombs could not destroy the site.

BREAKING: Iranian parliament has just voted to close the Strait of Hormuz.
- 20% of global oil passes through the Strait
HERE’s what to expect if successful:
- Oil Prices could spike by 30–50%+ almost immediately
- Global Inflation likely Rises
- U.S. Gas Prices likely Skyrocket. Potential $5–$7/gallon range depending on duration
- Military Escalation Risk. U.S. Navy and allies likely to respond
- Tanker delays affect oil, LNG, and related goods
Thanks Trump.

Because in 2035 none of the current politicians will be in power and therefore who cares.

War With #Iran.
War opens a Pandora’s box of evils that once unleashed are beyond anyone’s control. The warmongers who ordered the strikes by U.S. bombers on Iranian nuclear sites have no more of a plan for what comes next in Iran than they had in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya or Syria. European allies, whom Israel and Trump have alienated with these air assaults, are in no mood to cooperate with Washington

🇺🇸🇮🇷🇮🇱 Trump Predictably Talks "Regime Change" in Iran
▪️The plan since at least 2009 (but obviously an ambition since the 1970s) was always to start a war first, then escalate toward regime change;
▪️President Trump has once again duped his followers into embracing another war of aggression toward regime change in the Middle East, this won't stop until 100s or even 1000s of American service members are dead and another failed state emerges;
▪️Many Americans are disillusioned by the Trump administration's obvious betrayal of "MAGA" which always was deep state branding, but many more Americans deliberately shaped into violent, racist idiots will cheer US wars on abroad because they have NOTHING at home to be "proud" of;
