He should have stuck to the Iran deal in stead of listening to Benny.

The present mess is for a major part his responsibility.

That's all academic. There wouldn't have even been an October 7 if Netanyahu had been doing his job properly. But he's still in power, and from where things stand now, I'm having a problem thinking of many downsides of wiping out Iran's nuclear program.

A stopped watch is correct twice a day. 

I'm also a critic of Biden for stupidly restraining Ukraine by falling for Putin's bluff threats.

Unfortunately it isn't as simple as that. I agree with this statement from you.

"I would like to see Iran's nuclear capabilities taken out but I don't pretend to understand the logistics or risks of doing that."

 

I'm afraid, have the feeling, the consequences could be really bad.

Worth considering but once they get nukes the option is off the table.

   Its safe to say that the consequences will be even worse if Iran has Nuclear Bombs , rather than the consequences if the Nukes are taken away from them

There are some analysts who claim an attack on Iran's nuclear facilities would only slow down the development process by a year or two. If Iran developed nuclear weapons would the leadership be prepared to commit national suicide by deploying them, rather than as a deterrence. A very long shot, but would Western powers again be able to develop an agreement with Iran to reverse the stupidity of trump's unilateral decision; I assume not.

How would these analysts know how much damage would be done to come up with an estimate of just a year or two set back? 
 

seems there are some thinking of any possible excuse to take a risk now and instead let it ride till it’s too late to do anything at all about it. After all. An election in a month. Biden does not want any thing major happening before then. Much like also telling Israel to avoid oil depots. Wouldn’t want to drive up the price in the next month.

In general or just on hitting Iran's nuke sites? Where do you sit on "eating cats and dogs" or "winning the 2020 elections"?

No, that's not safe to say. It seems your opinion that they should be bombed or they will have a nuclear weapon.

   We are talking about whether Irans nuclear bomb making facility should be bombed to stop Iran acquiring  Nuclear bombs , rather than a general bombing of Iran

Which is what i was talking about. You also seem to presume bombing the facility will prevent them from making a bomb now or in the foreseeable future. 

I doubt both suppositions.

   I doubt very much that bombing the bomb making facility would make it easier for Iran  make a bomb 🙂

   You did doubt that bombing the bomb making facility would stop Iran making a nuclear bomb , it would certainly be a hinderance  to Iran's ability to build a bomb

   Do explain then . 

I think that's its correct to presume that bombing a factory will hinder that factory from making things , its quite obvious really
