2025 Israel vs Iran War

JosephStalin said:
Israelis need MOABS to hit the underground facilities. We have them.

MOABS are too heavy for a bomber to carry, They are dropped out of a cargo plane, like the C-130.

Israel has C-130s. Suggest they have received training from the US on how to handle the weapon and how to drop it. Quite possible that US military or contractor personnel are in Israel to help with such a mission. Mission should be doable now that the Iranian air and air defense threat has been so weakened.

False the bomb that's being discussed for this operation is a GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) here's it being drooped by a B-2 stealth bomber.

@Null, did Israel send a strongly worded email to their host?

IAEA's Grossi reports no proof of Iran's systematic effort into developing a nuclear weapon. This, along with anonymous sources from US' intelligence casting serious doubts on Israel's claimed timeline, certainly don't paint a good picture, or rather is very reminiscent of Iraq.

When has Israels timeline of anything ever been accurate? They've been saying that Iran is 2-3 years away from a nuke since the 90s and following that logic Iran should have like 10+ by now but they have yet to make any nuclear threats which is something they absolutely would do if they had nuclear weapons or even nuclear capabilities for the past 33 years.

GBU-57 MOP is the deep "penetrator" that buries itself up to 40-60m+ (130ft - 200ft) or more, depending on substrate/rock/material type before going off.

iirc that thing is heavy as shit like ~30,000 pounds. Probably part of why it can go so deep.

To be fair this is like, assuming nothing is done.
"Iran is 3 years away from the bomb!" might be true until you Stuxnet worm them and delete all their digital datafiles and set them back another 10 years.
"Iran is 3 years away from the bomb!" might be true again years until you assassinate a few scientists and set them back another 3 years.
"Iran is 3 years away from the bomb!" might be true again until you get Russia and France to stop helping their nuclear energy plans.

The timeline should be "Iran is X many years away from the bomb, unless we do something!"

Yeah, it has a pretty big filling too. I'm really interested to know what the dive + shockwave reach is on it.

I.e. if it dives down 40m before exploding, what's the actual destructive shockwave radius carried through the rock?

Doesn't matter whether it's accurate or not, if its purpose is to coerce foreign governments to act on it. The forged Niger documents stating Iraq was trying to acquire uranium somehow found their way directly to the White House without security service approval (and it took them minutes to figure out they were fake once they got their hands on them), and Bush directly referenced content within them during speeches.

Iran especially in Tehran has quite a middle class and even one of the best subway systems in the world. They aren't like dirt eating Palestinians who would starve themselves to death if not for the world feeding them.

That, I think if the USA does the bunker busting thing, that will pretty much end the direct involvement. Iran really has no way to rearm itself in the near future and thus the external threat from them will be neutralized.

My question is why ask Whoopi Goldberg of all people. Do they think she's Jewish because of the Goldberg name?

Missile incoming

If Israel's missiles alongside some diplomatic pressure from some Euros and the US are able to enact regime change, that'd be rather impressive.

I thought she did that to trick hiring execs who hadn't seen her in person that she was Jewish and thus likely picked for roles. I've also heard the same for Oscar Isaacs.

The cruelest of ironies is that what could finally undo and destroy the Presidency of Donald J Trump isn’t biased Democrat Lawfare, or paid boomer protests, or District Court judges nullifying his Executive Orders, or Rino Republicans refusing to pass his (bloated) Big Beautiful Bill, a “stolen election” or even an Assassin’s bullet.

What could finish off the 47th President’s agenda for good will be if he goes against his gut and drags America into another Middle East quagmire of blood, and wastes more trillions of American treasure like his predecessors.

War with Iran would be Trump’s Afghanistan, his Vietnam, and ultimately his political Waterloo.

Iran is a Theocratic dictatorship that sponsors terror but has invaded not even one country. They are not Iraq, which until relatively recently, was not a unified country but a group of rival tribes before it became a British colonial construct. Besides Iran being “the crossroads of civilization,” they are much more homogenous, roughly 2/3rds Persian ethnicity and didn’t bend a knee of break when attacked by Iraq during their 10 year bloody war. They fought tooth and nail for their very survival.

And their 90 million people will fight for their survival again.

It was Britain, and (funded by) the United States that overthrew a democratically elected Iranian Prime Minister Mossedegh in 1953 by using hired mobs in a coup that lead to the installation of the Shah Pahlavi’s 27 year reign of authoritarianism and human rights abuses. All in the name of Iranian Oil.

So here we are again. If American foreign policy is anything, it is immune from learning or even acknowledging recent history from either political party, leaving millions dead in it’s willful ignorance and arrogance.

I am praying that our President doesn’t start another war.

President Trump could still be our Abraham Lincoln but if he ignores history and our recent military misadventures, he could also end up being another George W. Bush, or God help us, a Republican version of Barack Obama.

Yours truly,
Rob Schneider
