To the editor: A number of issues could be true on the identical time. Our Air Pressure personnel might have been very courageous and executed their mission flawlessly, our huge bombs might have labored completely and the underground facility at Fordo might have been obliterated, however nonetheless that doesn’t imply Iran’s nuclear program was destroyed and it actually doesn’t imply its nuclear ambitions have ended (“U.S. strikes crippled Iran’s nuclear program, Israeli analysis finds,” June 25).
Satellite imagery confirmed a large convoy of vans going out and in of Fordo simply days earlier than the strikes. Have been they there to vary the drapes? It appears inconceivable the power may have been moved in a day, however 900 kilos of radioactive mud? If it was packed to go, even Amazon may have delivered that. And talking of radiation, the place is it?
Ending Iran’s nuclear ambitions? Did Pearl Harbor finish America’s will to struggle World Battle II?
It’s actually no insult to the Air Pressure to say they could have destroyed Fordo however not saved the world. Israel’s technique to deliver us into the warfare by bombing first mirrors that of Common Turgidson in “Dr. Strangelove.” Let’s hope our apparently profitable demolition of the mountain laboratory doesn’t mirror the ending of that film.
