Fact Check: "Iran faces calls to limit nuclear non-proliferation commitments after Israeli attacks!"

What We Know

In June 2025, Israel conducted a series of airstrikes targeting Iran's nuclear facilities, which included significant strikes on sites like Fordow and Natanz. These actions were justified by Israel as necessary to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, which has been a longstanding concern for both Israel and the United States (Brookings). Following these strikes, there has been a notable shift in rhetoric and policy discussions regarding Iran's nuclear commitments.

Iran remains a signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and has publicly maintained its commitment to not pursue nuclear weapons, supported by a religious fatwa from its Supreme Leader against such weapons (Middle East Monitor). However, the Israeli attacks have sparked debates about the efficacy of non-proliferation agreements, with some analysts suggesting that these strikes could lead Iran to reconsider its stance on nuclear weapons as a form of deterrence against external threats (European Leadership Network).

Analysis

The claim that Iran is facing calls to limit its nuclear non-proliferation commitments is supported by the context of the recent Israeli airstrikes and the subsequent international reactions. The attacks have not only damaged Iran's nuclear infrastructure but have also altered the perception of nuclear deterrence in the region. Analysts argue that the strikes send a message that compliance with non-proliferation treaties does not guarantee safety, potentially encouraging Iran and other nations to pursue nuclear capabilities for self-defense (Middle East Monitor).

Critics of the Israeli strikes, including Russian officials, have labeled them as illegal and emphasized that diplomatic solutions are the only viable path to resolving tensions over Iran's nuclear program (Reuters). This perspective underscores the potential backlash against the non-proliferation framework, as the strikes may embolden Iran's nuclear ambitions rather than diminish them.

However, it is important to note that while there are discussions and concerns about Iran's nuclear commitments, the Iranian government has not officially announced any intention to withdraw from the NPT or abandon its commitments. The situation remains fluid, with various stakeholders weighing the implications of the strikes on regional security and non-proliferation norms (Brookings, European Leadership Network).

Conclusion

The claim that Iran faces calls to limit its nuclear non-proliferation commitments after the Israeli attacks is Partially True. While there is a growing discourse surrounding the effectiveness of the NPT in light of military actions against Iran, and some analysts suggest that these events could lead Iran to reconsider its nuclear policy, there has been no formal announcement from Iran indicating a withdrawal from its non-proliferation commitments. The situation is complex and evolving, with significant implications for regional security and international non-proliferation efforts.

Fact Check: Transcript 00:00 For all of their strutting about protesting that they support democracy. Not a one of them gave a damn about democracy when they pulled Biden off the ballot and dropped Kamala Harris in without a single Democrat primary voter voting for him. And you know what? Not a single Democrat is here today because not a single one of them gives a damn about the fact that they lied to the American people for four years. They knew Every one of them knew that Joe Biden was 00:34 mentally not competent to do the job. The White House Press Secretary. She knew when she stood in front of the American people and lied over and over and over again and they're not here because they can't defend themselves. It wasn't a surprise for four years the White House hid President Biden from Republican Senators. Would not let him meet with us. He served 40 years in this body. We all know him. And they deliberately lied and by the way Jake Tapper had a bombshell 01:08 book exposing the incredible scandal that Biden's mental decline was covered up by Jake Tapper. There's a Yiddish word and that truly is how dare we lie and cover up what we all knew. Now I have been asked literally a thousand times by Texans. Was running the country? And I'm going to give 01:40 you the most terrifying answer. I don't know. I genuinely don't know. And not a single Democrat here cares. The most telling proof of Biden's decline came with the signature of the president. The symbol of executive authority that was outsourced to a machine. Mister Wald you're a lawyer who served in the White House Council's Office. You understand the gravity of presidential action. Does the president's signature 02:10 carry legal and constitutional weight under article two? Yes. Is the act of signing an executive order or signing a law or granting a pardon a delegable duty of the president. Uh so in that opinion in 2005 from OLC they said essentially that an autopin could be used by a subordinate but the president's determination as to sign the document can never be delegated. Can that authority 02:41 be transferred to a staff or a machine without the president's explicit authorization? Never. And if you look at the statistics, the statistics are stunning. In 2021, President Biden issued 78 executive orders. None were signed with an auto pen. That first year the presidency, Biden I suppose was relatively lucid and 78 executive orders he signed by hand. The second year, however, we see the auto pen emerged. 03:15 The first auto pen executive order was issued on 15th 2022. After that day 100% of the executive orders issued in 2022 were signed by an autopen. In 2023 Biden issued twenty-four executive orders. 16 were auto penned. In 20twenty-four Biden issued 19. 14 were auto penned. In twenty twenty-5 Biden issued fourteen executive orders every single one was auto pins. 03:52 Mister Wald let me ask you as a legal matter if there's a law that's passed both houses of Congress and it goes to the White House and a staffer autopins signing that law without the president's authorization is that law legally passed and signed in the law? No. If an executive order is issued and a staffer autopins it without the president's authorization, is that executive order legally binding? No. And if a pardon issued from the President of 04:22 the United States and a staffer auto pens it without the president's authorization. Is that pardon legally binding? No. Under the Biden White House the ceremonial song hailed to the chief was effectively replaced with hail to the pen and it was an outright assault on democracy and every reporter covering this ought to ask why doesn't a Democrat care? We heard about the moral responsibilities of a staffer. 04:54 How about an elected senator who knows damn well that if we get into a war and Iran is preparing to fire a nuclear weapon at the United States that the commander in chief is busy playing with his jello and he's not competent to defend ourselves and every member of the cabinet, the chief of staff, the press secretary, and the members of Congress who lied about this on a daily basis with the press's complicity. They are all responsible for subverting democracy. Angry Ted Cruz is perhaps my favorite version of 05:27 Ted Cruz because when he's getting history on it, you might want to take a listen. He is definitely angry that there's some acting going on here in the line of hail to the chief change from hail to the pen that's not a smart line but it's still the truth. The truth is in this video right here ladies and gentlemen. The change in the way Joe Biden used the autopin is a steady upward moving graph from twenty twenty-one to the end of his presidency in early twenty 05:58 twenty-five. Okay? That is a noticeable issue. And if he does not directly authorize the autopin we've got We've got grounds to go through every single law Joe Biden has signed that way and perhaps ignore them all together. There's way more evidence behind the autopin theory and hopefully it ends up sticking. I I hope it does because I think this is in a way worse than the Bill Clinton perjury case. Cuz Bill 06:28 Clinton basically lied before Congress lied directly to the American people lied under oath. This is worse in a way. Because lying under oath means that you know where the truth is and you're just hoping to get away with it and there's a direct law. This however Signing with the auto pin is more opaque. It is an ultimate he said she said and you're dont rate the opinion oo just fact if there is
