I’m not pro Iran. I’m pro not walking into a catastrophe where thousands of American troops, tens of thousands of Israelis and countless Iranians die. Iran went underground 40 years ago KNOWING Israel and the U.S. would one day do what is contemplated now. Iran has a very strong and robust retaliatory capability and it can’t be effectively taken out. Who knows how many facilities like this they have. How many does it take to retaliate?

Flame On!

Now we know what they bought with the billions sent to them by Obama and Biden.

They’ll get in their licks. But it will end very poorly for the mullahs.

Their Visual Effects ability has come a long way since the photoshopped missiles.

If Iran is stupid enough to Attack Israel with weapons of mass destruction, just one mega ton nuke will convert Iran into biggest sandy beach in the world.

I went to college with a bunch of Iranian Midshipmen. Most of them were OK. When the revolution started and they took hostages they were kicked out of the country.

The “good ones” were able to get out of Iran and they were back at the school as civilians within a year. They had horrible stories.

The “Bad ones” were all about the revolution and went back and went to war for years against Iraq.

The Persian people are generally good people. But they don’t have the means (the guns) to take out the IRG. I don’t think it would take much to topple the Ayatollahs.

But, that said, only a moron would attempt anything but a bombing and economic campaign against them. The geography of that country is pretty nasty.

I imagine we know where all of these missile bunkers are located and we have big bombs assigned to each one.

For the umpteenth time, why did Israel decide not protect their most important air base from 33 confirmed Iranian missile strikes?

“The moment Iranian missiles fell on the Nevatim air base in the Negev.”

"...it can’t be effectively taken out..."

Hogwash!
We have more bunker busters than Iran has missile cities...

For decades, the US and Israel have been surveilling and developing effective counter measures for Iran's tunneling program. Iran's vaunted "retaliatory capability" against Israel was mostly dismantled by Israel's attacks on Hezbollah in Lebanon and by the bombing of Iran's rocket fuel production facility.

Iran is actually weaker and more vulnerable now than a year ago. That explains why Iran is touting empty rocket casings and launchers in a tunnel that Israel or the US can blast into rubble at will.

Hummm, I think there are a number of satellites with lidar, ground-penetrating radar and hyperspectral imaging capabilities. Tunnels would be hard to hide, not impossible though.

Taking bets that when this was posted it immediately was displayed in a windowless room of NSA analysts and within seconds a chat window popped up on the administrator’s main screen,

“Iran’s IRGC unveils a new secret underground missile base”

Well, then, it’s not much of secret anymore. Is it?

This is 1 one of the 100s of Iran’s missile cities.

Well, maybe an H bomb can take out more than one site at a time. But it sounds like Pantex needs to get busy. And the good news is that Afghanistan is probably downwind.

Gentlemen (and ladies) tactically, we do not need to take out the bunkers.

It suffices to collapse the entrances, tactically.

Strategically is a whole different ball of wax...

“Who knows how many facilities like this they have.”

Back in the old days that would have been known by our intellengience agencies. But they have more work to do now with the really important things, like pronouns and white rage and censorship of the new media.

Possibly the Mossad knows, but after Oct. 7, maybe not.

If you’re not pro-Iran, how would you act differently if you were?
