I increasingly presume that Australia must be controlled by the CIA. It's getting to be the most parsimonious explanation for the behaviour of our quisling government.
Well they overthrew Whitlam when he alarmed the US with his whacky ideas of national self-determination, so I guess Australian governments ‘know their place’ now.
As you noted, Iran was never truly on the verge of nuclear arms. This was never about Iran’s actions — it’s about who’s allowed to wield power without consequence. The rules are simple: align with the American order, and you get impunity. Resist it, and you’re targeted.

I'm not sure that's ever been entirely "proven" but it does carry a certain plausibility...
Seems likely the Iranians will decide they tried the peaceful route and got bombed, so they might as well go nuclear to deter Israel and the US.
