The martyrdom doctrine leads to the death of people with whom the martyrs disagree. I'm worried for you.

From the previously linked article
Quote:
Low-enriched uranium, which typically has a 3-5% concentration of U-235, can be used to produce fuel for commercial nuclear power plants. Highly enriched uranium has a purity of 20% or more and is used in research reactors. Weapons-grade uranium is 90% enriched or more...
…. Iran's stockpile of enriched uranium was also reduced by 98% to 300kg (660lbs), a figure that must not be exceeded until 2031. It must also keep the stockpile's level of enrichment at 3.67%…
… Under the JCPOA, Iran said it would redesign the reactor so it could not produce any weapons-grade plutonium, and that all spent fuel would be sent out of the country as long as the modified reactor existed.
Iran must also not build additional heavy-water reactors or accumulate any excess heavy water until 2031.

So, under the terms of the JCPOA, Iran would not have the capability to build a nuclear weapon, so could not fulfil "their goal since 1979"…
