For 18 years, the Iranian nuclear programme has been one of the top 10 targeting objectives of the US intelligence services. In 2007 they first conducted a formal inter-agency review. It is done every year. This is not a minor process. A great deal of input is received from dozens of Washington stakeholders, led by the CIA.
The result has been the same every single year. Iran is not currently seeking to produce an nuclear weapon. Many people know that Tulsi Gabbard delivered this assessment in spring this year. Not many people realise that this was in no sense specific to Tulsi Gabbard and she was delivering the same assessment, through the same process, that Directors of National Intelligence under both Republican and Democrat administrations had given.
So the scenarios seem to be
Iranians really did have nukes but they have now been destroyed (Trump's position)
Iranians really did have nukes but they were too deep and have not been destroyed (if Trump is bluffing)
Iranians had no nukes anyway so nothing has changed with fake claims of destroying them (Iran and CIA's position)
The undisputed truth is however that by this action Trump has forever taken away Israel's justification to attack Iran
What am I missing? No one said they had nukes (i.e. bombs).
This was an enrichment plant. Not the same as a bomb plant.
Trump said they were enriching, not making a bomb. So did Gabbard.
The press incorrectly reported this as having a nuke.
Iran said they moved their product before we bombed the plant.
You are making the same mistake implying nukes.
This is about stopping Iran from making the product for a bomb above the 3.7% concentration required for power (peaceful) needs. Please don't spread the MSM BS.
Are we missing the point that they had plenty of warnings and heads up to disperse the material and research elsewhere? How would we know? There was a statement from the head of their Nuclear operation Mohammad Eslami made a statement that there were other secret sites. Their leaders are threatening "unending consequences", Biblical. Who or where is Magog? '
Actually had five.
Just do a search on number of entrances to Fordow......
Interesting side note....
This attack was made famous in Top Gun Maveric where Tom Cruse died during the attack. AI does a good job on showing how this might have been conducted compared to movie. They always tell us ahead what they are going to do.

Why would they lie? /s
If you are a victim of a real attack you always want to portray more loss than actual.
However, if you are a criminal being attacked by your victims, you always want to portray strength and show how strong you are.
Which one is Iran going with again?
Appear weak when you are strong. Conversely appear strong when you've just had your ass handed to you.
Prove it!
Because they want us to bomb them again?

So they are literally using the I’m rubber you’re glue defense?
Or the, you missed try again maneuver.
Military geniuses I tell ya
🤣😂🤣 Thank you! I needed a laugh!
Yep and they'd cheat at pencil-break and hand-slap too. Oh probably also rock-paper-scissors

Tom Cruise didn’t die in Top Gun Maverick.
Anybody else find it strange that they are NOT sharing pictures or video of the sites? Neither side is showing video/picture proof......
Not at all.
Iran will say anything right about now to save face.
So Israel can cry more bomb.
