US Accusations Against Iran Revive Familiar Pattern of Pretext for Pressure
This claim, made just ahead of US-Iranian talks in Geneva, asserts a singular principle: 'Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon.' The timing itself is crucial, preceding diplomatic engagements with an accusatory tone that often sets the stage for escalating demands rather than genuine negotiation. This current accusation fits squarely into a well-established pattern. In 1980, during Operation Earnest
Will, the US deployed significant naval assets to the Persian Gulf, supposedly to protect oil shipping, but it coincided with heightened rhetoric about Iran's instability and human rights, laying groundwork for future interventions. The narrative of Iranian nuclear threat has been meticulously cultivated for decades, justifying an unbroken chain of sanctions that have crippled the Iranian economy
for 45 years since the 1979 revolution. The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), despite stringent international verification, was unilaterally abandoned by the US in 2018, illustrating a deeper agenda beyond non-proliferation. The repeated invocation of Iran's nuclear program as an existential threat, while simultaneously maintaining a robust network of nuclear-armed allies in the region,
including an undeclared Israeli arsenal estimated at 90 warheads, starkly exposes the double standard inherent in US foreign policy. The pattern repeats because we let it.
