Isreal launches strikes on Iran

"This is not our war. But if it were, Congress must decide such matters according to our Constitution. I’m introducing a bipartisan War Powers Resolution tomorrow to prohibit our involvement. I invite all members of Congress to cosponsor this resolution."

Forgive me not been following thread, but u saw this fox video on Twitter and I’m like BS no way we would not know about a 2500 ACER site: 
Twitter FOX video link

absolute bs. Wither site doesn’t exist or we knew about it, it’s just getting leaked to Fox.

That would be an area of about two miles square.  Since lots of the production is under ground, it would just look like a factory complex on top.  Of that two miles square, there would be some roads and parking too.  So it would not be that easy to know it was there without any previous clues.  Shielding could make it so that it would not be easily detected from above with the main part down under ground or in a mountain.

So it would be possible that something resembling factories and a munitions factory network could be a nuclear site.  But there would need to be some pretty good insulating for energy hiding of the process, if they were hiding it they would do that kind of thing.  I am sure countries do that, even the United states probably shields nuclear military facilities from detection.  I would bet that Russia is doing that a lot too.

Not sure why only you Zaphod I can't quote replies to...but, what you're saying is only US bombers could strike Furdow? I guess for Isreal to accomplish their goal stated is that they actually put boots in Furdow.

Only large aircraft can. It's 20 feet long, 31 inches in diameter, and weighs over 27,000 pounds.  They could theoretically drop it out the back of a C-130, but that's the only thing they have that could carry it, and even with their defenses rolled back the way they are, that's a high risk.

The reality od the situation is difficult to ascertain. but what we know is that Israel isnt stopping Iranian missiles and a lot of decoys have made it look like Iran's air defenses are down. This has been planned and only the opening salvos of any conflict are predictable. Is the West moving into a strategic trap, we will soon find out when the allied west starts bombing Iran with all it has got. At the same time China and Russia's latest air defense systems go operational to see what they have got. This has got to be the most dangerous time,  Here are a few facts   Has Israel Already Lost the War of Attrition Against Iran? - YouTube

There is no confirmation of any attacks on ships. This is an area of high traffic, and we would see images released very quickly if there were any ships on fire.

Does this mean that, in order to ensure that Iran's nuclear program is destroyed, either the US becomes actively involved (at least to the extent that a US bomber drops a bunker buster on one or more Iranian nuclear sites), or Israel, lacking the US's bunker bomb capability, uses its nuclear weapons to destroy those sites?


Neither option is appealing.

Not necessarily.  I wouldn't be terribly surprised if Israel has figured out a workaround.  For example, I can imagine a rocket powered bunker buster that could weigh less, but fly fast enough to dig deeper and achieve the same effect as the GBU-57 MOP.  I don't have any classified information or anything that would convince me this is true, but if it was true I wouldn't know anyway.  Israel has been planning this kind of attack for a long time, so in my opinion they have some kind of plan.  They could do it with a SOF mission, if need be.
