shows how much you know
parchin isn't even a nuclear site! It's a military site that inspectors are interested in. Most of the centrifuges in Isfahan have now been transferred to Fordo, which cannot be penetrated by anything currently available on earth, bar nukes (more on this later). Arak is an experimental heavy water reactor. Bushehr and Natanz cannot be touched because they're live (radiation over the entire ME and the subcontinent blah blah).
Iran already has enough uranium for 4-6 nukes. Iran is also enriching to 20% at Fordo and we all know that it's much easier to go from 20 to 90+ than it's to go from 3.5 to 20.
Here's info regarding Fordo:

Too excited to read the next part.A firecracker has more energy yield than 20% enriched Uranium.
Are you sure that Boeing is the only company?Hint: Get a real hint. Less than half of Boeing's revenue are from the DoD. For example.
Are you the others conform to your flawed understanding of economics?Are you sure that Boeing is the only company?
Not if the F-22 is from the rear quadrant.
Nonsense. If that is true, we would have done it when the Soviets collapsed.
No. My grasp of economics is decent, if not on expert level.Are you the others conform to your flawed understanding of economics?
So is it anywhere compared to GDP like the Soviets'?No. My grasp of economics is decent, if not on expert level.
I have engaged in several detailed economic discussions in this forum. Some have appreciated my efforts.
Military industry of US is an important source for revenue generation for the country but not the only one. US is the largest exporter of military products in the world. US weapons are famous for their performance; thanks to demonstrations in many wars worldwide. With each passing year, US arms sales are breaking previous records. Add to this the voilent history of US in external affairs and the number of US military bases worldwide (aggressive military posture). Therefore, the speculations about US being a war-centric economy or nation.

My friend, Soviets are history now. However, US war-centric posture remains.So is it anywhere compared to GDP like the Soviets'?
OK, so things like the Internet and how it contribute to the economy means nothing. Got it...My friend, Soviets are history now. However, US war-centric posture remains.
back to the topic...
why would USA bring f22 near iran?
Of course, US is a resourceful country with many other contributions and means of revenue generation. However, US war-centric posture is a worrisome matter for other states.OK, so things like the Internet and how it contribute to the economy means nothing. Got it...
