There are competent, but not powerful enough.
Iranian nuclear sites are well hidden and dispersed - they learned from Iraq, all right. Also, to fly there from Israel, they would need to cross hostile airspace.
It is estimated that hundreds or even thousands of sorties are needed to destroy Iranian nuclear sites. US sitting in Iraq and Afghanistan, and also having carrier based attack planes is more capable of doing this.

Iran has enough natural gas to meet its clean electrical generation needs for centuries. I admit to being a "C" student in physics and I have a question that I suspect many people do.
What would happen if a nuclear weapon was detonated into the centuries of natural gas in Iran ?
Would we have the ultimate suicide bombing ?
