From Antiwar.com, "Israel Tells US to 'Immediately Halt' Iran Nuclear Deal Negotiations":  https://news.antiwar.com/2021/12/02/israel-tells-us-to-immediately-halt-iran-nuclear-deal-negotiations/

Israel stepped up its opposition to the Iran nuclear deal talks on Thursday and demanded that the US and other world powers put an immediate end to the negotiations.

Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett delivered the message in a call with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken. "Iran is carrying out nuclear blackmail as a negotiating tactic, and this should be answered by the immediate halt to negotiations and the implementation of tough steps by the world powers," Bennett said, according to a statement released by his office.

Israel claims that Iran has no intention of reducing its nuclear activity back to JCPOA levels and is only trying to buy time to develop a nuclear bomb. But there's no evidence to support the claim, and Iran has only taken steps to advance its nuclear program in the face of pressure from the US and Israel, and a JCPOA revival would reverse those steps.

Iran has said Israel is spreading lies about Iran to "poison" the negotiations. When the talks first resumed Monday, Israeli media reported that Israel warned the US Tehran is about to enrich uranium to the 90 percent level needed for weapons-grade. But again, there was no evidence to back up the claim.

With the demands from Israeli officials to halt negotiations come threats. Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz said Thursday that attacking Iran must always be an option for Israel, even if the country has to act alone.

Israel has taken extreme measures to sabotage diplomacy between the US and Iran in the past. In April, when the first rounds of negotiations began, Israel carried out an attack on Iran's Natanz Nuclear Facility. Tehran responded to the incident by starting to enrich some uranium at 60 percent, which Israel now claims is evidence the Iranians are racing towards a bomb.

From The Times of Israel, "Blinken says nuclear talks halted because Iran 'doesn't seem serious'":  https://archive.ph/0lXzt

United States Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Friday that this week's round of negotiations between world powers and Iran in Vienna was halted because Tehran does not seem to be serious about reaching an agreement with the US that would see a joint return to compliance with the nuclear agreement.

"What we've seen in the last couple of days is that Iran right now does not seem to be serious about doing what's necessary to return to compliance, which is why we ended this round of talks in Vienna," Blinken told Reuters.

The secretary of state said the US would now consult with its allies, including Israel, on how best to move forward.

U.S. foreign policy in a nutshell.

Chernobyl proved that you can build a nuclear bomb using un-enriched "natural" uranium that is simply refined, not enriched.

400 Gigawatts of heating at the peak of the explosion, from 400,000 pounds of uranium in a huge reactor.  That's 1 Megawatt per pound of Uranium.

It was about 20 pounds of uranium per square foot, to achieve the critical mass (runaway heating) that caused the explosion and accident.

Of course, the shift foreman was running the reactor with no water and no Boron absorbers.

Which is like an old French chef putting rice in a pot with no water, turning up the heat, and expecting some magic escape switch to prevent the rice from being burned.  After cooking rice successfully for his or her entire career.

The Chernobyl explosion was so anomalous that I suspect the CIA controlled the shift foreman, and also did something to force the need for nuclear power during the test (a coal fired plant conveniently failed).  He had 30+ years of nuclear training and from Day 1, what nuclear science students learn is, Uranium gets really hot and makes a GREAT heater.

For those interested in studying Nuclear Chemistry, I suggest Michael Short's class at MIT.  Caution - he is an obedient Jew.

In one class, he talks about the use of salt caverns filled with water to detect neutrinos from Iran's nuclear program.

Iran could build one heck of a nuclear device using 40% enriched Uranium.
