For the vast majority of entire life Iran has been weeks away from having a nuke. I'm nearly 50. And yet you believe that they're now "two weeks away" because that's what politicians told you. Who's being naive here? How old are you?

> Proof you're wrong is that they had a self-imposed 2000km limit on their missiles but when push came to shove, they changed their mind and shot one 4000km.

The details of this attack are murky, it might not have even occurred. And given the penchant for the Trump administration to lie about this conflict on a daily basis I don't believe it either. Show me some radar tracks, hell, ANY EVIDENCE and I might consider it. Otherwise I'll consider it propaganda.

"2 weeks away" means they have the technical capability do it soon if they decide to and can get away with it without their equipment being bombed. It obviously doesn't mean they will do it soon and it isn't literally 2 weeks. They can be delayed by international pressure or internal decisions, or whatever. So yeah, I do believe that, interpreted correctly instead of maliciously literally.

Same as the doomsday clock doesn't mean we'll have a nuclear war 2 minutes from now.

In my city, we've been "overdue for the big one" (earthquake) for my entire life. In never came but that doesn't mean it won't come in the near future so we still prepare for it.

OK, I have no evidence for those missiles. It doesn't really change things though. Iran clearly can change its mind if it wants. It's not the one country with permanently unwavering integrity that everyone can trust their lives to.
