U.S. strikes failed to destroy ‘core pieces’ of Tehran’s nuclear program, intel report says
U.S. missile strikes did not completely destroy Iran’s key nuclear sites, an initial American assessment from the Defense Intelligence Agency found, according to three people familiar with the report who spoke to NBC News.“We were assuming that the damage was going to be much more significant than this assessment is finding,” one of the three sources told NBC News. “This assessment is already finding that these core pieces are still intact. That’s a bad sign for the overall program.”
The assessment also found that the U.S. strikes set Iran’s nuclear program back by around three to six months. But Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium was not destroyed and Tehran’s centrifuges remain largely intact.
Putting aside how this makes Dotard look like a dotard, it's encouraging to see that the intel report was actually released. Remember when the assessment on whether MS-13 was being controlled by Maduro was changed to align with the orange dummy's policy.
