So; why not let Israel fight it’s own war? Why does “Uncle” have to step in?
What are bunker busters: Everything to know about the $500M bombs
Its huge weight means it can only be delivered with a B-2 Spirit stealth bomber — a jet that Israel’s air force does not possess.
Israel cannot easily take out Fordow, and, Fordow IS the most critical site.
If someone the block was yelling to everyone else, death to 55 Ford, would you listen and watch? Then he began blowing up a parallel street and killing friends and family in the mix, while saying his God told him to do it. If your cousin Vinnie asked for help, would you run the maniacal Jihadi over with your big steel car or wait until it is your turn to be sacrificed?
It's not so much about Israel fighting its own war as it is Iran having nuclear weapons. That's something that would be intolerable for the western world.
Why does “Uncle” have to step in?
Because the United States has the only military equipment able to reach the 300 feet deep nuclear enrichment area. This area is protected by hardened bunkers and only the 30,000 lb GBU-5t/A MOP is able to penetrate it. The B2 stealth bomber is the only aircraft able to carry two of those MOPs. To slice through the covering, the B2 drops the first MOP, which creates a tunnel about 200 feet deep. The second MOP targets that tunnel and slips through it to the end. At maximum depth, it explodes, sending a shock wave and destruction another 200 feet.
To you expect America to send Israel a B2 and the MOPs and have them do it? There are also the F22 Raptors serving as escort fighters that also have to be a part of the operation. F-22 Raptor is a fifth-generation, twin-engine, stealth tactical fighter aircraft designed for air superiority and multi-role combat. It combines stealth, supercruise, maneuverability, and integrated avionics to achieve air dominance. The F-22 is not only capable of air-to-air combat but also performs air-to-ground missions. Does Israel have pilots trained to fly those?
Really. I mean like what has Iran ever done to the US to warrant military action against it?

Israeli lobby, and the military industrial complex is powerful, and spreads lots of money.
“Why does”Uncle” have to step in?”
Because “UNCLE SAM” doesn’t cry “Uncle” when an avowed and dangerous enemy threatens to destroy not only a true ALLY but also their own nation through the use of DEADLY “weapon of mass destruction”!
“”So; why not let Israel fight it’s own war? Why does “Uncle” have to step in?””
Gee, I don’t know. Might have something to do with that Iranian call for “Death to America”... along with a dozen or more other things Iran has done TO America and Americans.
Israel IS fighting their own war. We took out the ability for Iran to build nuclear bombs - something Trump has talked about - and said he would do - for years.
We’re NOT part of ‘the war’ unless we’re attacked. That’s what Trump has said and I trust him.
