They have made it clear they do not want weapons. You NEED purified and enriched uranium (to a point) for fuel grade stuff, and there has not been the slightest shred of evidence that they ate going further than that AND no evidence whatsoever of them doing all the other shit you need for a nuclear weapon. You need a lot more than enriched uranium to make a bomb or missile warhead, even if they were going that far.

The states purpose of this is that after 1979 Israel wanted Iran to be a failed stated like they did to Iraq and Syria.

Yes they've SAID that, but do you make it a habit to believe what authoritarians say?

You NEED purified and enriched uranium (to a point) for fuel grade stuff,

No civilian reactor needs uranium purified to more than 5%. They've purified uranium to 60%. Also the uranium they import from Russia is already purified to the level needed by their one civilian nuclear reactor. Any uranium purification happening in Iran is for a nuclear weapons program.

I hate Trump and Netanyahu too, but if they say the sky is blue, do you automatically have to agree with someone that says the sky is green?

Yeah no shit. Just as Iran wants Israel to be a failed state. That's how shit works with adversaries.
