Just to be nice I will take your word for it — but you are being very optimistic. People said things like this about the North Vietnamese way back then - but their resilience and come back ability was astounding. One of the best attacks on Iran has been the industrial viruses and the motorcycle bombers who have assassinated some of the nuclear scientists.

yeah but the Vietnamese weren't trying to build the bomb... you build bunkers to protect people/knowledge base not things and the higher value the target the harder it is to replace and even when replaced, lessons learned have to be relearned and it also makes it harder to get new talent of equal caliber let alone better when they see what happened to their predecessors even when hiding in their end of the world bunker system
