Sooo ... you imply that the US warned Iran before the bombing to move the enriched uranium? If that is the case, I'm not sure.
But the Iranians aren't dumb ... I would have moved it, and as many centrifuges as I could.
But ... while the deep penetrator bombs might have done some damage, I am not sure they got all the way down. My understanding is that there were only two bombs per site? That is insufficient.
Either way, there is a lot of performative bombings going on.
тАЬIsrael's 30+ year dream is that Iran by some miracle might somehow be made to go away, as its greatest existential enemy.тАЭ
IтАЩm not sure his is true: it was Israel that entered into a criminal conspiracy with the Reagan Administration to sell Iran missiles, in order for the Reagan Administration to (illegally) fund and support Central American death squads.
ItтАЩs hard to make the argument that Iran is the ultimate existential threat тАж while youтАЩre selling it advanced American missiles.
тАЬ[Iran is] trying to build hegemonic controlтАЭ.
Is it?
I know what each of those words means, but I donтАЩt know what that sentence means.
I donтАЩt care what the тАЬconsensusтАЭ is, what evidence is there for that claim?
Do they have dozens of major military bases throughout the region? No, thatтАЩs the US.
Do they hold millions of people under occupation for decades, denying them basic human rights? No, thatтАЩs Israel.
Are they forming an тАЬaccordтАЭ with the most repressive form of Islam, Wahhabism, including countries that funded the worst terrorist attacks in the US and around the world? And spread terrorism to Afghanistan, the UK and as far as Indonesia? No, thatтАЩs Saudi Arabia.
So I ask: what evidence is there for Iranian тАЬhegemonyтАЭ?
The funding of Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis? Because their funding is тАж what тАж an absurdly tiny fraction of the funding we give to groups to oppose them?
That's the rational thing to do.

Agree with ALL of that.
Now they will, very quietly, go for the bomb.
The question is: will Israel try for regime change?
