Iran’s nuclear facilities are mysteriously under attack
Fox Nws ^ | 7-13-20

Iran's nuclear facilities have been under attack for weeks, but it's still unclear by whom

Black smoke rose as flames engulfed the Shahid Tondgooyan petrochemical plant in the Khuzestan province of Iran late Sunday afternoon.

Hours earlier, more than 500 miles away, detonations rocked the basement of an old, nondescript home in a northern pocket of Tehran. The two-story dwelling was said to have housed at least 30 gas cylinders that were used for unclear purposes.

Both incidents came fewer than two days after a string of explosions – and power outages – were reported west of Tehran in the early hours of Friday. Local reports indicated that multiple “mortar-like sounds similar to anti-aircraft missiles” were heard.

The blasts reportedly took place at an Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) missile depot.

While some Iranian officials denied the outbursts altogether, and others quoted a former mayor – who reportedly died more than a year ago – as saying it was caused by gas tanks, experts said there is something bizarre at play across the beleaguered country.

These most recent attacks happened on the heels of multiple other mysterious explosions at sensitive sites over the course of the last three weeks – and no one is precisely sure what is going on, other than its rattling of the regime and stymying its controversial nuclear program.

"The tempo and tenor of the recent explosions in Iran have been unusual. There is evidence of a concerted campaign underway to thwart Iran's nuclear program," Jason Brodsky, Policy Director of United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI), told Fox News. "The more Iran advances its nuclear program in violation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), the greater the likelihood for additional strikes."

I remember a year or two ago, Israel tested sending an F-35 over Iran just to see if they were able to spot it. It must have taught them a lesson.

"Israel not taking chances with China promising to help Iran."

And not trusting their status under a Biden presidency.

BOL! The best DUH statement describing these happenings! "The tempo and tenor of the recent explosions in Iran have been unusual. There is evidence of a concerted campaign underway to thwart Iran's nuclear program," Jason Brodsky, Policy Director of United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI), told Fox News. "The more Iran advances its nuclear program in violation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), the greater the likelihood for additional strikes."

I hope its not that scenario, I have faith it won’t be, but it does make a lot of sense.

I ordered the whole two seasons of the old series “The Invaders”. Fairly good and it does make it seem possible that they are here.

I have yet to hear anyone claim that Israel asked permission of the US during the Obama presidency but was told “Hell No”, then the asked for permission during the Trump presidency and were told “Systems Go”.

Mysterious?... Ridiculous...


If there are less than 10 suspects, there is no real "mystery"... IMHO...

Amidst all the smoke and confusion, “Yosimite Sam” can’t figure out who to shoot back at. . . .

Yippee!! Since the Iranian dictators have repeatedly made clear that USA is their number one target, it’s probably the CIA ( or Mossad, or both). But even better if it’s Iranian people on their way to overthrowing their evil rulers
