Will We strike Fordo? Update: We did

[BabyBoomer50s]

The object of the misdirection reported was to keep CNN, NYTs, WaPo, and MSNBC, from telling the enemy that we were coming.

It worked. Apparently the Iranians are as stupid as left wing members of this board who thought the US would wait at least two weeks or maybe longer, if ever.

You alluded to it when you said he was an authoritarian, which is BS.

He is an authoritarian.

That doesn't mean he acted outside the law with this attack.

Trump has been operating within the Constitution and the laws of the land. Despite your feverish pearl-clutching, his high court victories prove it.

Lol...nope.

Perhaps review his latest tik Tok EO for one example.

Pretty sure there will be escorts through the strait.

You don't see the entire picture, escorts or not, the insurance premiums alone, not counting they may not underight the vessels...... take into consideration small quad copters, land based anti-ship missiles
What are the escorts gonna do? Flank the oil tankers as a shield?....
Now take this for thought. the feds are desperately try to locate sleeper cells in the lower 48.....oh and they "ain't" all the middle eastern type the Mexican, Russian, and Chinese.......
If you all believe that this bombing attack is the end of it? Sadly you're dead wrong the United States has been at the fore front from the get go....

They had two other locations with underground storage.... All three were destroyed.

Iran's sole working nuclear plant, the russian built nuclear reactor at Bushehr, hasn't been bombed and russia has plans developed for a further 2 to be built in there.

Russian President Vladimir Putin says Israel has given assurances about the safety of its personnel at Iran’s Russian-built nuclear power plant in Bushehr. Russia and Iran have been working on the joint project for three decades. He made the comments at a meeting with foreign press.

the sites targeted housed the centrifuges necessary for the enrichment procedures; as such, even if not totally destroyed the plants will have been set back considerably. I cannot find reporting on what the Bushehr plant does, and if the USA were told we can't be sure it's the truth. They don't trust the U.S and the U.S doesn't trust iranian or russian data sources.

Tel Aviv resident had this to say:

“I think it’s a stupid war,” said Ravita Yemeni. “I think every war is stupid. I think that we’re bullies, they’re bullies. Everybody’s crazy … We want to live in peace. The Iranians want to live in peace, and they [the world leaders] don’t let us. All the dictators rule the world now, and they don’t let us live in peace.”

Her apartment in north Tel Aviv had been “completely destroyed” – although there were no deaths in Iran’s latest bombardment of Israel.

Does she think that there is going to be more of this?

“Of course… we’re going to get it,” she replies. “The Americans are not going to get it. We’re going to get it.”

netanyahu's frothing at the bit, now, storming praise down on trump as he encourages the US to continue bombing the shit out of iran.

Israeli military sources said that if the US stops its campaign at this point, then little will have been achieved. They want to see the “might” of the US unleashed across Iran in an effort to smash its security infrastructure and provoke regime change. Few military officers believe that it will bring long-term stability, though it will end Iran’s nuclear weapons programme.

“If Trump does not carry on, then things are going to get bad. Iran can hit us with 20 missiles a day for a long time to come. That will disrupt our economy and weaken support for this campaign,” said a senior Israeli officer.

“There’s no guarantee that our violence will lead to the predictable political outcomes that we want,” the officer added.

typos in the article stand out, but this one raised a grim smile:

Those means include threatening to strangle oil experts through the Straits of Hormuz

I’ve given this some thought, and I now wonder whether the B-2 deployment to Guam, initially interpreted as a misdirection aimed at Iranian leadership, may have served a dual purpose: not only signaling intent to Tehran, but also delivering a pointed warning to Beijing, should it be contemplating aggressive action against Taiwan.

A more urgent question is how far Beijing will go, now, to back up Iran.

Not in the end. All they did was "awaken a sleeping giant and fill it with a terrible resolve."

It stands to reason that China, as Iran’s largest oil customer and a nation heavily dependent on energy imports, would have a vested interest in urging restraint from Tehran. Any retaliatory use of force by Iran, especially one that might provoke a wider U.S. military response, could threaten the security of oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, a vital artery for China's energy supply. While China may condemn the bombing publicly for diplomatic optics, its deeper priority lies in preserving regional stability to ensure uninterrupted access to Iranian oil. Behind closed doors, Beijing is almost certainly pressuring Tehran to avoid escalation, not out of loyalty, but out of strategic self-preservation.

Posting without comment. If true, that's a massive hit and exactly what Irael needed. Iranian's nuclear ambitions delayed by at least a decade if correct.


View attachment 2550288

Iran’s MAJOR nuclear ambitions are done for at least a decade, but AT LEAST FOUR HUNDRED KILOS OF SIXTY PERCENT WEAPONS GRADE URANIUM IS STILL UNACCOUNTED FOR.





Also:

It has been suggested by VSP that Iran has small clandestine nuclear facilities scattered across Iran where they could enrich the 60% weapons grade uranium to 90% (nuclear bomb grade).





The main thing the bombing of Fordo accomplished (imho), is setting (improving?) the conditions for a positive progressive regime change that allows for an international team to scour Iran for ALL nuclear materials & infrastructure, and which also precludes some covert intervention / assistance by Iran’s axis allies, Russia, China, and North Korea to accelerate the Iranian’s quest for a nuclear weapon.

That ^ is the only way Iran is truly defanged of nukes (including dirty bombs).

And that ^ will only happen after significantly more demilitarization / destabilization of Iran occurs via continued Israeli (and potentially US) strikes, etc, (imho).

This is NOT over.



Also:

DonOld gets ZERO credit for any of this, as it was DonOld who accelerated Iran’s nuclear program and got us to this point in the first place: Tearing up the JCPOA, assassinating Qasim Soleimani, moving the US embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, applying "maximum pressure", etc certainly didn’t help the peace process (DonOld’s action in his first FAILED term can also be cited as THE MAIN contributing factor in the 10/7 attack on Israel during President Biden’s administration).

DonOld fucked up the Middle East more than it already was (which tracks with “everything DonOld touches dies).

ZERO points awarded.



Hope that ^ helps.





We. Told. Them. So.

 

[butters]

watched a segment of an interview with (can't recall but part of) team trump and the question was asked about would the U.S defend countries with in-situ US bases from attack by Iran... the was a whole lot of dancing around the answer: he said "well, that's what they're there for,'' but, when the interviewer pressed for a direct assurance he would only say that if American personnel and infrastructure were harmed then of course the US would respond, blah blah blah. He specifically DID NOT confirm the U.S protection of those countries should attacks hit them anywhere else. Those countries must now be on the blower demanding clarification of those statements!

Or will the Chinese attack Taiwan while our shit is in the middle east? What will the Russians do if anything? Nuke London, Paris, New York? It's anyone's guess at the present....except the straits of Hormuz are closed as indicated by the various ship trackers.... at the present the first tanker has been turned around and is headed "south" not entering the straits of Hormuz......

Well, the previous diplomatic efforts have centered around them importing nuclear fuel from other countries to use for energy only. Perhaps that is still Bibi's thoughts.

the sites targeted housed the centrifuges necessary for the enrichment procedures; as such, even if not totally destroyed the plants will have been set back considerably. I cannot find reporting on what the Bushehr plant does, and if the USA were told we can't be sure it's the truth. They don't trust the U.S and the U.S doesn't trust iranian or russian data sources.

Putin Reveals Why Russia Won’t Offer Military Aid to Iran​

In a stunning admission, Putin cites Israel’s power and influence as the reason Moscow won’t support Iran militarily — even as the IDF eliminates top terror commanders deep inside Iran.​

. We have plenty of deterrence in the Pacific. The Russians will do nothing in response to our attack on Iran. That is not to say they won't strike in Europe as a result of its military assistance to Ukraine, however. I've already explained the reasons why China will refrain from acting against our policies in Iran. I might add that there are reports of a Russian/China split as we speak.

BiBi will have to tell Trump what his plans are to be going forward.

Iran is at least a medium-sized giant. Much tougher nut than Iraq was.

 

[eric_erosfan]

The craziest part of all this was Trump hemming and hawing to the press about whether or not he would join Israel in bombing Iran. Almost like a giddy schoolgirl with a big secret he wanted to share but knew she shouldn't.

BiBi will have to tell Trump what his plans are to be going forward.

Always subject to Putin's veto.

What could happen if Trump does decide to bomb Iran's main nuclear site​

I'm fairly sick of a President who pretends to have the upper hand when he's just an idiot.
