President Donald Trump has explained why he so strongly believes that Iran’s nuclear program had been reduced to “total obliteration” — revealing that Israeli agents had entered the bombed sites to confirm the destruction firsthand.
“Israel is doing a report on it now,” Trump told reporters. “I was told they said it was total obliteration. You know they have guys that go in there after the hit… and they said it was total obliteration.”
The president doubled down on the effectiveness of the surprise airstrike, dismissing a leaked U.S. intelligence assessment suggesting Iran could resume enrichment within months.
“They didn’t have a chance to get anything out,” Trump insisted. “We acted fast. If it would have taken two weeks, maybe. But it’s very hard to remove that kind of material — very hard, and very dangerous.”
“Plus,” he added, “they knew we were coming, and if they know we’re coming, they’re not going to be down there.”
The remarks come amid growing debate in Washington over the true extent of the damage inflicted on Iran’s nuclear program after the U.S. dropped a wave of bunker-buster bombs on three key enrichment facilities. Trump, however, remained confident the mission dealt a historic blow.
“It set them back basically decades,” he said.
The White House has dismissed a leaked Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) assessment — published by CNN — as both inaccurate and politically motivated. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt blasted the leak, calling it the work of “an anonymous, low-level loser in the intelligence community.”
“The leaking of this alleged assessment is a clear attempt to demean President Trump and discredit the brave fighter pilots who conducted a perfectly executed mission,” Leavitt wrote. “Everyone knows what happens when you drop fourteen 30,000-pound bombs perfectly on their targets: total obliteration.”

We are getting lost/diverted in the conversation.
1) The archives containing the manuals for enrichment were destroyed last week.
2) Copies of the manuals were taken by Israel some time ago as reported here.
3) Significant numbers of the scientists who are knowledgeable in the enrichment process are no longer among the living dead hear, but rather among the dead dead.
Those three successes are enough to have set the Iranians back months, years, perhaps decades. But we now have the final two blows:
4) Destruction of the TWO facilities where the first and the final stages of enrichment take place.
5) significant or complete destruction of Fardo.
So, for all intents and purposes they are done for now and for the foreseeable future.
How did they extinguish the fire so fast?
Thanks for telling iran about top secret Israeli operations, if true. But there is no reason to trust anything that comes out of this filthy lying degenerate’s mouth.
Times of Israel reports that Israeli officials say they unaware of any operation at fordo.

Trump is correct

Stop knocking Trump. We as Orthodox Jews love Trump.
rt; There is no reason to take any of your TDS riddled comments seriously.
Obviously, we can’t know who is right. But oftentimes what is NOT reported or discussed (and the fact that it is omitted) leads to the more likely truth. First, the direct contradiction to Trump’s claim that they couldn’t have gotten stuff out before the attack, which is the satellite imagery of large convoys of trucks going in and out of Fordo before the attack (for all we know, that could be fake too…). Second is the IAEA’s recent statement (yesterday) that 900 lbs of 60% enriched uranium is missing. Notice how those two items are not mentioned here…
אין לנו להשען אלא על אבינו שבשמים…
the satellite images of a line of trucks outside fordow, three days before it was bombed, tell a different story. 400 kg (800 lbs) of enriched uranium are unaccounted for, and sufficient to make 10 bombs, as is. further enrichment would only make things worse, but isn’t even necessary. whether or not the bunker was destroyed. obviously, the orange man isn’t a military strategist or a nuclear physicist.
