Negotiations over Iran's nuclear program remain stalled following strikes by Israel and the United States. The bombing of key nuclear facilities has deepened Iran's mistrust of Washington and reinforced its resolve to continue enrichment.

Three European powers met with an Iranian minister to try to reopen negotiations over the limits of its nuclear activities.

While Iranian officials continue to insist that their nuclear program exists for energy and medical research purposes, Western analysts and organizations already critical of Israel and U.S. leadership continue to echo those same talking points – even though decades of Israeli intelligence operations should give them serious pause.
