Iran 'building bomb-proof nuclear site'
Australian ^ | September 29, 2007

"Information we have from inside the regime indicates the site is destined for military nuclear activity, mainly for the further enrichment of uranium," Mehdi Abrichamtchi, of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, said in Paris.

The new site in central Iran consists of a "vast underground area beneath the Karkass mountains linked to the surface by two tunnels and connecting with a third tunnel" to the Natanz nuclear complex 5km away, Mr Abrichamtchi said.

"The site is protected against aerial attack. If Natanz is bombed, it won't be touched," he said. "To maintain secrecy, the area has been declared a military zone, and the regime has bought up all the local land."

The NCRI is the political arm of the People's Mujahideen of Iran, which has been declared a terrorist organisation by the US and the EU.

My thoughts exactly. No such thing as bomb proof.

...Deep underground, limited points of egress...It might as well be Ali Babas’ cave piled high with jewels, protecting all
of the best theives in the world from the Sultans army...but if they can’t ever get out, after going in...

We need to capture a small asteroid and fill reentry vehicles with rock in high Earth orbit. At 7000 meters/sec. they can’t bury it deep enough. If they dig deeper we use a bigger rock. See how I got my nickname? Its what my fellow engineers called me in the aerospace biz.

Better yet, instaed of bringing all the trash we gather in space back to Earth, in small lots, just keep collecting it into one big ball, and attach thrusters to it, and then bring it all down on chosen target. A space trash bomb...;o)
