They must be some robust containers and then some.
Guess these GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrators.
Can manage to penetrate hundreds of feet of earth and concrete.
But just can't breach a few steel containers.
Well, that's handy, conscientious even. 
Isn't it odd that the U.S. bombers were allowed to do whatever they wanted to do there without Iran sending in their air force, hmm?
It took the U.S. bombers less than a half hour to bomb the three sites, tell me they didn't know they were entering their air space, how they didn't scramble to their fighter jets, how it would have taken them a long time to get it together, they couldn't follow them out of their air space, because why?... tell me how it went down.
No it's not odd, it's because those sites were of no value any more, so bomb away.

The goal was to collapse the site, not necessarily destroy the containers. Sites buried under hundreds of tons of rubble are just as destroyed as sites completely blown up.

It’s reasonable to question the lack of Iranian response, but those bombers are the tip of the spear, pretty much the pinnacle of technological achievement and typically avoid detection using stealth.
Iran likely detected them too late to mount a timely scramble, or not even at all, given the degraded state of their air defense capabilities.
A lot of things "odd" about the attack, all the same, so who knows......................

How very "convenient" for Donakd.
And not even a slight detection of radiation.
Not even a peep!
Miraculous.
