Last update:~17:20 EDT"CNN reported on Tuesday that an initial assessment of the strikes by the US Defence Intelligence Agency was that the main components of Iran’s nuclear programme were intact and likely only set back by months.
This flies in the face of Trump saying that the US air strikes “completely and totally obliterated” Iran’s nuclear programme. The White House trumpeted its bombing of Iran’s Fordow, Isfahan and Natanz enrichment complexes as a major military feat that surprised Iran."
If they claim they destroyed everything in the first round, they don’t have a reason to go back.
Bingo. “Mission accomplished.”
“We killed you!”
“Not so much.”
Face saved all the way around.
And if you gotta fuck around, this wasn’t too bad. So far.
