They are out in the open enriching uranium to 84% with a breakout time to a weapon measured in weeks now, how many reasons do you need really?
Maybe they wouldn’t have done it had the US not bailed out on the Iran nuclear deal.
I don't see how a sane person thinks Iran getting the bomb is a good development or viable.
Is Tesla gonna become a Defense company?

So? Its a perfectly rational course of action, no nuclear armed nation has ever been invaded and subjugated. If i ran a country building or acquiring a nuke would be top of my "To-do" list.

Maybe. Most probably they would have cheated. It is moot either way. There is no such thing as "fair" in geopolitics. I don't see how a sane person thinks Iran getting the bomb is a good development or viable.
Just like with Iraq; wmd’s, weapons inspectors etc. are ultimately just a side show.

I agree in the sense that it comes down to a decision the US has to make on whether to invade Iran or not. Just like with Iraq; wmd’s, weapons inspectors etc. are ultimately just a side show.
IAEA (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Atomic_Energy_Ag...), France, Germany, UK, all are sounding the alarm.

JORC standards have it that:
A resource is that amount of a geologic commodity that exists in both discovered and undiscovered deposits—by definition, then, a “best guess.”
Reserves are that subgroup of a resource that have been discovered, have a known size, and can be extracted at a profit.
While this is an Australian standard it (and near equivilants) are the standards used on the largest mineral exchanges on the globe ( TSX et al )
The above 21 million tonne figure for Boliva is a best guess resource guesstimate and not an actual Proven Reserve estimate backed by sampling + geophysical survey + drilling + staged Technical Reports.
For that matter Iran here is asserting that they have an actual reserve backed by drill data and tech reports which leaves the question of:
Where is the published data?
