Iran still has uh several hundred kilos of enriched uranium enriched to 60%. Uh the only purpose for uranium enriched to that level is for weapons uh uh grade. It's weapons grade material.There's no civilian purpose for material of that kind. Uh that as far as we know was not uh destroyed in the US air strike.

And can we get Iran back to the tab ...
Former CIA Officer: Iran's Nuclear Facilities Far From 'Obliterated'
Bloomberg Television· 2025-06-24 05:40
Paul, thanks so much for your time today. We've got a lot to unpack here, but I want to start with this idea of the cease fire. President Trump hailing a cease fire saying the 12 day war, as he's calling it, is over.But obviously Iran's foreign minister countering that. When can we have confidence that a cease fire has been achieved. What what would you want to hear.Well, we can have confidence when we get official announcements from both the government of Iran and the government of Israel. Foreign Minister ...

I'm going to ask you the same question I just asked Mark Esper, and that is this attack, which seems to be pretty limited and pretty well intercepted uh on Aluded in Qatar.Does this now provide an off-ramp rather th ...
Trump Lauds ‘Bullseye’ Strikes on Iran. Officials Are Still Assessing.
The Wall Street Journal· 2025-06-23 18:27
[Music] Everyone seems to agree that there was a direct strike that reached underground somewhere, but we do not know whether all of the equipment in Fordo was damaged or destroyed. And we do not know if the site was put out of action. [Music] If Iran decides we're going to try and build a bomb, they need file material that they can then fairly quickly and easily uh turn into weapons grade material.But without that stockpile of material, it's very very difficult for Iran to divert enriched uranium in order ...

Mr. . Secretary, welcome to the program, sir. We'd like to lean on your experience.The work to execute an operation like this one and your high level assessment of its success. Well, good morning.

Thanks for being here. On Bloomberg TV and radio, Congressman. Thanks for having me. And thanks for the lead in.You know, one after another of my colleagues on the other side of the aisle forgetting about everyone from Truman to through Biden. Every one of them did a kinetic firing. None of them went to war. None of them came to Congress for the constitutional approval.And that's the only thing the Constitution says is going to war. The fact is, since Teddy Roosevelt famously said that, you can, you know, I ...

We've heard more tempered comments from the chairman of the Joint Chiefs and other analysts who are looking at this, including the IAEA. Did we go far enough.Well, I don't think the job is finished. I think it's very difficult to make evaluations of how effectively then, for example, at Fordo, which by definition was under a mountain. And it' ...
