Another reminder why Iran should not be allowed to have any type of nuclear program. “Iran extolls deterrence of nuclear program on Trump’s first day back,” Iran International, 1-20-25. “Iran’s nuclear program is central to strengthening national security and deterring international threats, a top official said on Monday as hawkish President Donald Trump returned to the White House after repeatedly vowing to deny Tehran a bomb. “Over the years, adversaries have tried to weaken Iran in this field and entangle the country in international issues,” Behrouz Kamalvandi, the spokesperson for the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) said during a military conference in Tehran. “That is precisely why they do not want Iran to have full, indigenous control over it.” … “Power in today’s international world is distributed based on balance and realism. Islam recognized this long ago and considered power as a foundation for creating deterrence.” Iranian hardliners have previously advocated for developing nuclear weapons as a deterrent. Following Israeli airstrikes on October 26, Javan, a newspaper affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, urged Tehran to consider developing nuclear arms to counter external threats.”

A really long posting day. But the Leader makes a critical quote here. “Iran’s Leader: Resistance Front not to stop for a moment,” Press TV, 1-20-25. Quote of the Day: ““Despite the fall of prominent figures like Yahya Sinwar, the front of the uprising will not stop for a moment,” the Leader added, referring to Hamas’ former leader, who was assassinated during an Israeli strike against Gaza during the war and other senior resistance personalities. “Hamas is alive and will remain alive.”
