Iran's Fordow Still Standing. Mission Not Accomplished!

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Serious damage was inflicted on Fordor.

Copilot surmises "The Fordow nuclear facility in Iran sustained severe damage from U.S. airstrikes involving bunker-buster bombs, but it was not destroyed. According to U.S. officials, B-2 stealth bombers dropped six bunker-buster bombs on the site, which is deeply buried and heavily fortified. Despite the intensity of the attack, the underground complex remained structurally intact in key areas

The Fordow facility is built under approximately 90 meters of rock, making it extremely difficult to penetrate with conventional or even advanced bunker-busting munitions

Satellite imagery and intelligence assessments suggest that while surface and access points were hit hard, the core uranium enrichment infrastructure deep underground was not fully neutralized.

The operation was part of a broader U.S. strike on multiple Iranian nuclear sites, including Natanz and Isfahan, and involved over 125 aircraft and submarine-launched cruise missiles."

US intelligence and satellite imagery indicated "the core uranium enrichment infrastructure deep underground was not fully neutralized."

Let's see if the US and Iran will stop throwing bombs and sit down to talk.

Did you see TenranBob celebrating the ceasefire and lying/boasting on supposed hitting Israel? Asides from murdering some 30 citizens in Israel including 5 Ukranian refugees , Iran has done Zero damage to Israeli military.

From Pallywood to pallyWeid to Hezbollahwood to Gazawwod to Iranwood...

AHHH, Look at whose hoping for WW3. That's a good one you folks used to use all the time when Biden was president. Just giving it back at you for courtesy.

Negative, how does our taking out their Nuke capability lead to ww3, do you really think Russia or China want to be a part of Iran's war?

All China and Russia have done is provided lip service. The Ialamic fascist regime is alone.

Johnny, your second link is pretty decent.

The imagery I saw previously, showed three distinct holes in a row and they weren't near the entrances either. With that silhouette overlay, I'd bet the three holes were directly over the centrifuge area.

The entrances were probably taken out by IDF with their penetrators..... which aren't capable like the '57s.

I don't expect anything but limited, if that, pictures of damage from the strike.

You are comparing the LBJ admin with everyone else, that’s really not fair

The truth is seldom fair. Just as tigers do not lose their stripes, pathological liars do not stop deceiving. Consider what happened during the Plandemic. LBJ admin was not the only group of liars to occupy the White House.

I'm sure you are happy as a Lark
Our New "Commander In Chief" - General Gorilla - is a BIDEN APPOINTEE

Is Israel's favorite US general helping to push us into war?​

"Kurilla, according to the New York Times, had been open to Israeli strike plans earlier this spring, “that would have combined an Israeli commando raid on underground nuclear sites with a bombing campaign, an effort that the Israelis hoped would involve American aircraft.”

“Gen. Michael E. Kurilla, the head of U.S. Central Command, and Michael Waltz, the national security adviser, both discussed how the United States could potentially support an Israeli attack, if Mr. Trump backed the plan.”

Is Israel's favorite US general helping to push us into war?

Some question the timing of the attacks, pegged before CENTCOM Commander Michael Kurilla's summer retirement

Everytime Iran attacked US bases, under Biden......Kurilla wanted to kick ass and take names.....but the ghost president was afraid to respond.

I don't need to find the door. Did Israel when they went back today seeking to do what Trump claim was already done? I doubt it too.

They took out the roads leading to the site to prevent quick access. So there goes your narrative.

Isn't it more to America's and the Zionist regime's advantage to somehow claim that the job wasn't done?

Can that be spun out to their public without suggesting a failure?

How aboout this The centrifuges/ fissionable material was destroyed but the the centrifuges/ fissionable material wasn'tldestroyed?

Or how about just cutting to the chase and say that Iran hasn't been defeated yet?

Otherwise it's just the continuing food fight with a censoring factor being applied.

How does simply giving Ukraine weapons lead to WW3? See how that works?

 

[Delldude]

How does simply giving Ukraine weapons lead to WW3?

By the US secretly providing targeting coordinates for their attacks.

Is the US possibly giving Ukraine targeting intel a bigger or less provocation than dropping multiple 30,000 bombs to destroy a country's nuclear facilities. Yes, or no.

Interesting article about Iranian concrete. Iran is the forefront of UHPC concrete. (Ultra High performance concrete)

According to Popular Mechanics, previously , a yield strength of 5,000 pounds per square inch (psi) was enough for concrete to be rated as “high strength,” with the best going up to 10,000 psi. The new UHPC can withstand 40,000 psi or more. The greater strength is achieved by turning concrete into a composite material with the addition of steel or other fibers. These fibers hold the concrete together and prevent cracks from spreading throughout it, negating the brittleness. The problem is that even the biggest bomb possible, made of the toughest material available, may no longer be able to hack it. Gregory Vartanov, Ph.D., of Toronto-based Advanced Materials Development Corp, claims high-grade UHPC is simply too strong for bombs made with existing steels. “Penetrators with monolithic cases made from materials such as … Eglin Steel … cannot penetrate bunkers made from UHPC,” Vartanov notes in a February 2021 piece in Aerospace & Defense Technology magazine, basing his claim on open-source penetration formulas.

So, it may be that Iran was prepared for this attack which may explain why the assessments to the Iranian facility are being downplayed and revised.

You would think US Intelligence would know this.

In a First, America Dropped 30,000-Pound Bunker-Busters—But Iran’s Concrete May Be Unbreakable, Scientists Say

President Trump is claiming the strikes “obliterated” three underground nuclear sites in Iran protected by military grade concrete. The truth may be more complicated.

Think about it.. It is a complete win for Donald he comes across as being the tough guy he took out Iran's nuke plants and as a peacemaker.Win Win.. Now he can concentrate on the Abraham accords and sell lots of weapons because US products have been shown to be the best as Israel proved by decimated Iran.. There are other factors but Iran got to keep their regime for now...It was perfectly cheorgraphed and the US got to show its deference with no casualties or boots on the ground keeping most people back home happy... That is my take on it or my opinion...

I Honestly see the Iranian regime as a bunch of terrorists who just want to hold power like you always point out they behave like a gang ...They certainly don't think about consequences that is for sure..500 billion dollars spent for these facilities and nothing g to show for it.. Pathetic...what is the difference between pouring their money into these facilities and Hamas spending all that money on their tunnels and acme rockets… These guys don’t care about their people only the destruction of Israel and their own power…. They are truly Wily E coyote on steroids …

Your Ukraine issue is off topic here and I'd suggest you start a thread.

Regarding Iran and the US.........................who is the provocateur?

Is it the Iranians or is it the US?

Yes or no?

The provocateur is always the one who drops the bombs first. That's pretty simple logic.

Or the one that takes over the other one's embassy.
