Intelligence undermines Fox’s nuke claim as Iran war drags on and costs rise

TL;DR Summary
Reuters reports that U.S. intelligence believes Iran still requires months to build a nuclear weapon, a timeline that has not changed despite two months of war, undermining Fox hosts’ argument that the conflict would prevent Iran’s nuclear ambitions. The war has not toppled the regime and Iran remains in control of the Strait of Hormuz, while Americans face higher gas, diesel, and fertilizer prices as the direct costs mount.
