I couldn't care less about Trumps claim on obliteration, not quoted his claims once about the damage, you can stand down with the personal off topic slurs now. Fail and just proves that Trump hate is more important than finding the most accurate estimates possible.

The same unfinished preliminary report we've been discussing for the last 3 pages......

So you admit unsubstantiated claims and now make additional claims it was also made known to them by the Chinese. Meanwhile the IAEA who has inspected the sites for years have not identified it

I think the US will test it beforehand after spending around half a billion developing them, your just clutching at straws now.

But the severity of damage inflicted on Iran’s nuclear program will probably give us some clues." Yes and that assessment currently is: “Given the explosive payload utilized and the extreme vibration-sensitive nature of centrifuges, very significant damage is expected to have occurred,” Grossi added referring to the US bombing. IAEA chief expects ‘very significant damage’ at Iran’s Fordo site, demands access https://www.timesofisrael.com/iaea-chief-expects-very-significant-damage-at-irans-fordo-site-demands-access/

There's no established evidence or known military strategy suggesting Iran utilizes a diamond-shaped design for its nuclear facilities to divert missile trajectories. That's the first thing IAEA would have picked up in its reports

Iranian officials downplayed the attacks Yes they would. Its quite possible that the US in its development of the bombs were aware of this no? After all they had these plans in place for years, it was not done on the back of a fag packet last week without knowing of Irans concrete.........

This preliminary DIA report was incomplete and was not supposed to be released, nobody knows where they got their findings. They only have eyes in the sky, not eyes on the ground. Its the Intelligence Community (IC) which do have eyes on the ground.

Again? "An initial classified assessment found the U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities set back Tehran's nuclear program by a matter of months, according to three sources familiar with its contents." That said they would have been very wise to move them.

Yes you'll be very pleased to know that they may have moved the Uranium. Together with your theory of why Iran should not give permission to IAEA then everything's good. Oh wait. “Given the explosive payload utilized and the extreme vibration-sensitive nature of centrifuges, very significant damage is expected to have occurred,” Grossi added referring to the US bombing.

Oh ok, so unnamed officials again. Bit like the un named leak of a report that nobody has seen

there was discomfort at the military planer level that he was saying a little too much. Can you link to that claim please

The attacks on Iran’s nuclear program have provided Iran a very strong argument for denying all foreign access to whatever remains of the program, equipment and materials. Yea that's a good theory for you to play with in support of Iran, well done

Even the rabidly rightwing press Pathetic. "Rafael Grossi says no one is in a position to assess damage from US attacks; says accounting for Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium necessary to end conflict, bring peace" IAEA chief expects ‘very significant damage’ at Iran’s Fordo site, demands access https://www.timesofisrael.com/iaea-chief-expects-very-significant-damage-at-irans-fordo-site-demands-access/

Any more questions you want to throw hope one sticks? You may want to try and keeps things in context, the so called assessment was a preliminary one, others have been published since and as the IAEA has stated, the sites need inspecting. Exact assessments of the damage — which require access to the sites that Iran is unwilling to grant — may never take place. US strikes on Iran believed to have set back nuke program by two years Saturday’s US strikes on three Iranian nuclear facilities set back the Islamic Republic’s atomic weapons capabilities by roughly two years, American and Israeli officials and experts tell The Post — adding that Tehran remains “highly incentivized” to pursue a bomb. https://nypost.com/2025/06/24/world-news/heres-how-long-us-strikes-may-have-set-back-irans-nuclear-program/ Its not surprising you are diminishing the impact of such a successful mission

The only news bringer is Iran, they need to grant access which IAEA chief has demanded VIENNA, June 23 (Reuters) - U.S. bombing probably caused "very significant" damage to the underground areas of Iran's Fordow uranium enrichment plant dug into a mountain, though no one can yet tell the extent, U.N. nuclear watchdog chief Rafael Grossi said on Monday. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/iaea-chief-expects-very-significant-damage-irans-fordow-site-2025-06-23/

Away you go then.

Yes we already know what she said https://x.com/PressSec/status/1937599769544982577

No doubt a statement from NATO will be forth coming soon.

Interesting to see usual suspects trying to diminish the successful, dangerous daring raid by the B2 and its supporting aircraft that had been planned for years before. Based on one disputed and leaked early assessment report to CNN that is in stark contrast to all other assessments after. The fact is that the IAEA is going to be the only body who will find out the true extent of the damage. They have requested access from Iran. Their current assessments are that there was significant damage to the centrifuges.

European Council condemned Hamas for refusing to release remaining hostages and exploiting Gaza's 2.3 million residents as cover during Israeli military operations. The intervention marks Europe's most decisive stance since fighting erupted following the 7th October 2023 attacks. Its only taken the EU over 600 days to work that out.

early sources in a disputed leaked report to CNN. While everyone else including the Nuclear watchdog says otherwise.

"Hamas-run Civil Defence agency said" Same Hamas propaganda that you refuse to acknowledge, from your own link "The GHF said there were "no incidents near any of our sites this morning".

Should he have announced it then? The mission's success relied heavily on keeping Iran in the dark about the incoming attack. The U.S. military used decoy bombers sent to Guam to throw off potential tracking. Spalding said that hiding such an operation has become more challenging in today's connected world. https://abcnews.go.com/US/former-2-pilot-shares-details-iran-nuclear-facility/story?id=123121102

Yes Iran broke the deal already, we know. Now lets see what the response will be from Israel but for sure it will be hard. Just reported in BBC too. Iran denies firing missiles at Israel after the ceasefire began, state media reports Never believe the Iranians.
