The historiography here tracks something real. One thing Historical Info covers is the actual timeline of Iran’s nuclear milestones — the 1957 Atoms for Peace agreement that actually gave Iran its first reactor with US backing is the kind of context that gets lost when the threat-framing takes over. The gap between what was technically true at any given moment (enrichment capacity, centrifuge counts, breakout estimates) and how it got translated into headlines is genuinely a story about how intelligence assessments interact with editorial cycles. Hard to tell any of that without the underlying history.
