This was inevitable. Iran will never agree to give up their nuclear capabilities.

 

[Onewolf426]

We knew this was coming. We moved anti-missile defense systems from Ukraine to Israel. They are doing this with our blessing, which keeps us out of a direct confrontation with Iran. We have also been evacuating our people out of the region.

F Iran
Bomb them back into the stone age !!!

 

[trader]

will it be more tit-for-tat like last time or the big kahuna this time? Guess we'll see who will blink - the Ayatollah or Bibi.

We moved anti-missile defense systems from Ukraine to Israel. .

Negative.

No anti-missle systems were moved we just diverted APKWS II rockets to prep for any extra drone attacks. Our aircraft have been using then and may need a larger number of them to respond.

My prediction is the Iranian response, which will be weak, since they are weak, will be the pretense for Israel to Take steps designed to initiate forcible Iranian regime change. The name they gave the operation is "Rising Lion ".

 

[Bassbob]

One thing I'm pretty sure about. Before Israel stops, Iran will be very far away from the ability to produce a nuclear weapon.

 

[Talyn]

Iran had dug alot of very deep tunnels & facilities that will be challenging to neutralize.

They aren't just targeting facilities.

Agree.

 

[Recusant]

Cry ‘Havoc!’ and let slip the dogs of war!

We used this excuse in the aughts and beyond for not taking action against their underground facilities. IOW it was "we don't have the munitions." They have to breath, eat and drink. Destroying ventilation ducts and entrances; we knew where they were and what was going in and out was eminently doable. The leadership just didn't want to rock the boat while we were in Iraq and to jeopardized Obama's nuclear deal. We were also undercutting Israel in their planning for this exact event.

Still equals challenging.

Ventilation shafts & entrances don't have to be vertical, and could be placed in tight canyons.

But, Israel has alot of eyes in Iran and will be hitting what they can within their capabilities.

the MOAB explosive device will devastate any tunnels.. those puppies you feel for hundreds of miles in sandy land
not sure how many they have...but i know who has a bunch

Israel attacked Syrian tunnels as a prep raid for Iran. Bet $5 boots on the ground in Iranian tunnels at some point

They have the best intelligence agencies on the planet. I’m confident at a minimum this sets back Iran’s nuclear program by decades at a minimum.

Post-strike intel will tell the story.

Israel does not do anything half ***. You know that.
Iran is in for a rude day
