US Strikes Iran

[Lazaran]

I've started this mental game where I see these threads in Marvel Comic What If style

What If Biden or Obama struck Iran?

Every leftist in this thread

They deserved it
They can't have nukes
They're world terrorists
They oppress women
This is a good thing!

But it was Trump who did it, so....wahhhhhh

People should see this post as more than snark, because you know damn well you'd do it. You have no conviction about anything other than your side is never wrong, the other never right even if they both do the same thing.

This ^ post is classic right-wing-fuckwit ascription:

1) I’m a Democrat (a leftist, according to right wing fuckwits like Lovescrap68), and I called for the strike on Fordo without the "two week" delay that the corrupt orange traitor had initially signaled (and I also believe a ceasefire is ill advised without clear signs that regime change to a more progressive government in Iran is imminent and the missing enriched uranium is located and confiscated - as well as all clandestine nuclear projects in Iran being identified and eliminated).

That ^ would ALSO have been my position if a Democrat was President; full stop.





Side question:

What about the righties who are criticizing the attack???



Weird…

So?? All that uranium was “destroyed”??
‘Rump will not be happy with this picture
It’s worth 400kg(?) of uranium

Ohhhh??? We knew about all these trucks ?
They were moving more stuff into Fordo???

16 trucks?? It would take 1 to move the material even with gobs of lead. So… where did each truck go??

There is something wrong with this whole deal. I have heard too many conflicting stories.

DonOld is going full TACO:

After the strike on Fordo (which Netanyahu ordered DonOld to do), Former Russian President Medvedev, a close ally of Putin states that Iran’s "allies" (Russia, North Korea, and perhaps China or Pakistan) would supply Iran with existing nuclear weapons (from their own stockpiles, evidently). DonOld immediately went full TACO and started begging for an immediate ceasefire, despite the main objectives of Israel’s efforts in Iran remaining unrealized (the regime is still in place and the enriched uranium is still unaccounted for).



As far as: “who do you trust on the destruction of the enriched uranium - Israel and Mossad, or Whiskey Pete Hegseth, Turncoat Tulsi Gabbard, Kooky Kash Patel & the rest of that motley crew - I leave that up to you to decide (Israel & Mossad say the Iranians still have the enriched uranium - and so do the Iranians). It doesn’t help matters that the IAEA has no clue about what is going on in Iran at the moment.

Hundreds of missiles.

Billions of dollars.

And they kill what… 400-500 people in total?

These new wars dont provide very much Death Per Dollar.

Are we seeing an increase in the value of life?????

Nah, not to the totalitarian regimes. The Iranians are just flat incompetent.

He initially signaled?? You’re not happy with that. Maybe he should have signaled point of origin, time, location, route to destination, weapons load, pilots names and addresses, bases and identity all other ancillary support. God forbid the use of deception.

If the Iranians had known all of that, would it have made any difference?

 

[ADIDAS00]

…..andddd, the war is over. That was pretty anticlimactic.

Could of. They still have some anti aircraft capabilities.

You should see the return on an AR-15......heard it's much more effective

With events moving quickly, I want to preview our study on battle damage coming out later today, here are some takeaways.

1) Overall, Israel's and U.S. attacks have effectively destroyed Iran’s centrifuge enrichment program. It will be a long time before Iran comes anywhere near the capability it had before the attack.

2) That being said there are residuals such as stocks of 60 percent, 20 percent, and 3-5 percent enriched uranium and the centrifuges manufactured but not yet installed at Natanz or Fordow. These non-destroyed parts pose a threat as they can be used in the future to produce weapon-grade uranium.

3) Complicating any effort to turn weapon-grade uranium into nuclear explosives have been extensive attacks against Iran’s facilities and personnel that would make the nuclear weapon itself. Iran’s infrastructure to build the nuclear weapon has been severely damaged. The time Iran would need to build even a non-missile deliverable nuclear weapon has increased significantly.

What to do?
1) Israeli intelligence would be expected to continue hunting in Iran, even under the ceasefire, for non-destroyed residuals, such as nuclear materials, centrifuges, and nuclear weapon manufacturing capabilities.

2) Any U.S. agreement with Iran should address these residuals by negotiating an end to Iran’s enrichment program, as President Trump has stated, in a verifiable manner. As part of that deal, Iran must also give up its enriched uranium stocks and destroy its remaining centrifuges. The IAEA can verify this. An agreement should also require Iran to dismantle its capabilities to make nuclear weapons. The IAEA can verify all this as well.

Any agreement should be cast as a ceasefire agreement; violations can lead to prompt Israeli attacks and in rare cases a U.S. response.

Trump rebukes Israel and Iran hours after ceasefire -- mainly Israel, for bombing Iran after he announced a ceasefire.

 

[Rebel5soul]

Post 238 and 239 say exactly the same thing with the only difference being the negative slant in the 239 offering.

When has any government ever agreed to allow foreign inspectors of its nuclear programs?

Let’s blame Boeing!

Here's some facts. He's not presenting the definitive end game, but his evidence is fact based and compelling.

Exclusive: Early US intel assessment suggests strikes on Iran did not destroy nuclear sites, sources say

The US military strikes on three of Iran’s nuclear facilities last weekend did not destroy the core components of the country’s nuclear program and likely only set it back by months, according to an early US intelligence assessment that was described by four people briefed on it.

The assessment, which has not been previously reported, was produced by the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Pentagon’s intelligence arm. It is based on a battle damage assessment conducted by US Central Command in the aftermath of the US strikes, one of the sources said

Why not? Bunker busters still not enough?

He's really not a bright human being. He is also very arrogant. Reading a history book would have told him that. He doesn't read or listen. Does he think after bombing a sovereign nation, they would just sit back and chill?

About that F bomb he let out, imagine if a woman or black president would have acted in such a manner. You know MAGAts love calling women emotional. What a disgrace to the office.

Opps, you know that the "journalist" that wrote that article is the same that wrote that Hunter's lap top was "Russian disinformation?"
