LordAdam16:
He is wrong on several accounts.
Everyone knows about Pickaxe. It is still operational.
Everyone knows Iran still has other secret facilities.
Centrifuge manufacturing is still intact.
Enriched stockpile is intact.
Isfahan even has lower levels that are deeper than Fodro.

What everyone can attest to is that Iran's nuclear program is not completely destroyed.
If anything, it will continue unimpeded but away from the watchful eyes of IAEA inspectors.
Those who would have balked at this in the past, including Russia, now welcome it.

To your last statement, Iran signed the JCPOA deal and adhered to it.
The Arak reactor is a testament to this.
In fact, Iran kept adhering to the deal after the US left until a year later when Israel influenced Trump to start making maximalist demands.
Biden came and continued to push Trump's maximalist demands.
Iran's red lines still remain at the end of the war as it was at the start.

-Lord
Arak and every other heavy water unit is gone

It takes more than one facility to produce enough material. Fordow itself was a junior partner to Natanz which has the main stock of 60% enriched uranium while Fordow had mostly 20% and under

You must know more than him who is an expert in the field for over 30 years

BTW the projection of Iran being degraded to 10 to 20 ballistic missiles per day was achieved

LordAdam16:
Only adding color to that "expert's" opinion for anyone interested.

-Lord
That expert determined he nuclear facilities were badly damaged, no centrifuge production facilities left and nuclear program put back years. But did admit same as JD Vance that Iran could build back so Israel will need to keep mowing the grass periodically

He also analysed the damage to the mountain and assesses that the dust on the side showed it penetrated deep

So the nuclear goals were achieved and on the battleground, the difference was clear

The US and Israel shared a laundry list of strategic targets and Israel hit all of them, allowing both parties to achieve their goals and exit while still up on points.

My main takeout from this is Iran should stop terrifyng it's neighbours with terrorist groups. Nobody will have problem with them being successful traders, they should just start behaving themselves

LordAdam16:
The Western orthodoxy that Iran is a pariah struggling to keep its nuclear program afloat is a myth.

https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/how-israel-planned-bomb-pakistan-stop-it-building-nuclear-weapons
That article lays out that Iran does have the capacity to get a nuclear bomb at any time.
Pakistan transferred complete designs and processes to Iran and North Korea.

Iran wants to be the ME Japan.
To be Japan, it must retain the ability to enrich uranium.
Israel fiercely opposes this.

Trump had agreed to this Japan settlement at the start of his second term
Russia had offered a solution. Iran will enrich but with the strict 2015 cap. Russia will evacuate the 60+% enriched uranium stockpile.
A JCPOA reset.
Israel opposed both because Iran is already a nuclear threshold state.
It enriched from the JCPOA limit of 4% to 60% in under a year (2019 to 2020/2021).
That was 5 years ago. If Iran wanted, it would enrich to 90%, but it held off and only intermittently added to its existing stockpile.
In fact, if IAEA reports are to be believed, IAEA already found traces of 80+% enriched uranium, so Iran potentially has a smaller stockpile of weapon-grade uranium.
So like Japan, if Iran retains its enrichment capacity, it will be able to enrich and acquire a bomb at a moment's notice if it finds itself in an existential crisis.
That's the deterrence Iran seeks.

And that's the reason for the war.
Israel wants to completely eliminate Iran's ability to enrich.
That's what a complete destruction of its nuclear program entails.
Iran has said over their dead bodies.

On some level, it does appear that Israel has made the tradeoff that they'd rather have a North Korea.
Iran with a nuke but crippling sanctions that'd destabilize the government as it did Syria.
The mullahs will struggle to have the same level of control as the Kims. We've already seen how easily Iran can be infiltrated.
There are no protests in NK, protests occur regularly in Iran.
So there is a chance the regime could be toppled or become a Pakistan where compliant generals manage things.

As opposed to a prosperous Japan.
Iran as a nuclear threshold state. No sanctions. Lots of trade deals.
Growing economy that'll make the mullahs the next CCP or Gulf Monarchs.
And essentially becoming the Turkey/Japan/South Korea of the Axis Bloc on account of Iran's innate technical proficiency.

That is why Iran will sacrifice as many generals, nuclear scientists, and Khamenei himself to retain its nuclear program.
And if Iran does not change its stance, a second war is all but assured.
If push comes to shove, Iran would just test a nuke as Medvedev as said, either one that is transferred or one developed by its own means in secret facilities; and cross its fingers.
But it will not leap at this decision until it exhausts all other options.
Iran is playing a very dangerous game. But so far, they're still in it. Barely.

-Lord
Let it go bro.

Nuclear facilities intact. Generals intact. Regime intact.
If fact, nothing actually happened in Iran. No bomb fell in Iranian airspace, whilst Israel has been removed from the map entirely grin grin grin

Imagine one werey here saying he will wait for his nuclear scientist friends to tell him whether 16 60,000kg bombs dropped in sequence at a single location can potentially do damage. grin grin grin
The person I follow on nuclear matters is David Albright. Anyone interested can follow his assessment here

cococandy:
The funny thing is that they are so afraid of displeasing each other that they can’t even agree that what’s bad is bad. I don’t know what kind of fear of losing social currency that is. Is that masculinity? Fear of going again the hive mind? If we are going by what they consider masculine and feminine traits, then the man who doesn’t mind their childish insults and will call them out on BS is undoubtedly more masculine.

Look at that one that calls himself android. He’s in other threads foaming at the mouth about Isreal and Netanyahu but he’s afraid to come here and say it to raum and co’s faces. Maybe he knows they’ll call him a terrorist for saying a bad thing is bad.
Sports section is Android and Raumdeuters primary place of conversation. If Raumdeuter wants to tackle him there, he will tackle him there. They must not come and jump all over each others mentions here with long diatribes like some Felicia when they are both in the same conversation space there

The Nateevs I'm discussing with here na my padi on NL for 18 years. We are discussing politics today, we will drink beer and discuss football tomorrow, we call each other unprintable names like ninny, shekpe keeper, Felicia and laugh it off. I don't know why your guy is jumping on my conversation with Nateevs with his neurotic streams of consciousness like some Felicia.

I have always stated that my political views are shaped by two things only - my pocket and my security. The very reason I hate Trump is cos he demonises minorities and that threatens my security as a black man plus he lies constantly and threatens our democratic security which is based on accepted truths. That very reason of taking security seriously is why I would never cap for the world's greatest sponsor of terror in Iran who also harbour Al Quaeda, the very group that has attacked America and UK. That is no reason for a Felicia to be jumping all over my mentions with long diatribes or calling me a MAGAt.

There is a reason some of us never jumped in his fights with MAGAs on this section, that's cos we can spot a gøøfy from a mile away. He should keep me out of expectations of far left group think, which is also the same as far right group think. I can never support terrorists in the name of looking cool. You won't even know that I support a Palestinian State and freedom for their people, he just keeps making assumptions and putting me in a box with enemies of his groupthink cos I refuse to join him in supporting terrorists.

Ibime, I think this post by Leavitt was meant for you.
She says the leaked Top Secret Intelligence info is wrong because we should just understand in our gut about what happens when a 30k bomb is dropped.

Again believe your gut and not the intelligence agencies with all their fancy letters behind their names and all their fancy technological doodads that helped build that bomb, fly it and drop it accurately.

God... Welcome to the Idiocracy.

To Iran is the loser because they had the last salvo.

You b beta comic relief.

-Lord
Israel did not have a last salvo.

Israel wotowoto them all day

They just launched few missiles, scored one hit and immediately their State TV just announced ceasefire. At least, they have something to sell to their people

Someone attacked you, killed all your top generals, obliterated your airforce and air defences, avenged everyone involved in October 7th, held your Supreme Leader hostage all 12 days with F35, killed your top scientists, decimated all your IGRC headquarters, including killing hundreds of IGRC soldiers in a bombardment today, cleared out your missile production facilities, attacked numerous nuclear facilities, even cleared out your Police, Navy and TV stations, hacked your banks, shut down your internet, and even had the temerity to attempt to forment social unrest by unlocking your prisons.

Yet after all these you accepted ceasefire after 12 days having not killed a single soldier in retaliation. Couldn't even close Strait of Hormuz which you threatened.

So Iran has a clock that countdown till the date of destruction of Israel. The obsession and hatred towards Israel is shocking....
This is well known. They also chant Death to Israel and Death to America after every Parliament session

And we are meant to believe they have peaceful intentions. The Iranian Mullahs are a death cult, at odds with 100% of Iranians I've met in real life.

All Iranians I've met are bad guys. Drink and drugs full their retinue. Have never met a Conservative Muslim amongst them

So..... damage assessment. Like I told you about celebrating early. Where do we stand?

E be like say B2 SatNav had the wrong postcode.

Satellite imagery now showing that nothing do Furdow. IAEA reporting no radiation at site.

$350m wasted.
Keep hoping on a site no one has visited, and if they do, F35s will greet them

The site is dead, it will take years to reopen and if they do, bombs will revisit them again, so mission accomplished

More inclined to believe USA who built that weapon for that site and have tested it under those conditions than Iran who haven't been to the site to assess damage

Currently, no one, including the IAEA, can assess the underground damage at Fordow - IAEA

Like I said, it's possible Iran had moved Nuclear material but they can't just restart under current conditions and like Netanyahu said, they have intelligence on their location. USA informed Iran of the strikes on Saturday and trucks were seen evacuating staff and possibly nuclear material, but no doubt their forward location would have been tracked, but as for the Fordow site, it's out of action
