Comment on Iran reiterates it will not pursue nuclear weapons despite the expiration of nuclear deal

I really hope they are lying. Nuclear weapons are the only way they can stop US and Israel from making Middle East a never ending conflict zone.

Not really. MAD assumes you have people on both sides who don’t want to permanently destroy the land.
With the religious right in charge of both Israel and Iran, both sides are perfectly happy to destroy the entire world in pursuit of a better afterlife.
This is one of those reasons that the separation of church and state is so important.

The same could be said for Russia or United States, both are controlled by Christian nationalists at the moment.
