Let us go through it. One of the stated goals of the war was to recover Iran's enriched uranium. ok but where is it? Nobody knew. So they launched a Dick Dastardly-style operation in the Isfahan area, where they believed the Iranian nuclear program was located. We all know how it ends. More recently, the idea was to bomb Mount Pyx to rubble, assuming that the Iranian nuclear program was hidden there. something there? Nobody knows. Several mountains were bombed during the February War, but no one really knew if there was anything of value inside. In short? Nobody knows anything. But the retribution now being offered means that Iran has not agreed, and will not agree under any scenario, to hand over its uranium and dismantle its nuclear infrastructure. This is the true calling of this award. Patricia Marines.
