Iran’s 'insurance policy'? Secret underground nuclear site takes shape
Ynet, ^ | 07.05.26

Posted on 07/05/2026 2:14:37 AM PDT by Words Matter

New satellite images show activity at 'Pickaxe Mountain,' an underground site in the Zagros Mountains where IAEA inspectors have not been allowed to visit, even as Natanz, Isfahan and Fordow show little movement after last year’s US strikes

“The Islamic Republic of Iran reaffirms that it will not seek or develop nuclear weapons. The Islamic Republic of Iran will maintain the current status quo of its nuclear program.” These are two clauses in the memorandum of understanding signed by Iran and the United States, but new satellite images of a secret site are raising questions over whether Tehran truly intends to uphold the agreement.

What do you think Trump will do if we see hard evidence? Better yet what do think Israel will do?

Bomb it today.

Drop the bridges.

Bomb the electricity turbines.

Send them back to the Stone Age.

They earned it.

Sorry Persians.

You missed your opportunity for a revolution.

Pending the final deal.....The Islamic Republic of Iran will maintain the current status quo of its nuclear program.

It is not at all clear that Israel has the kind of capability that the U.S. does to hit hardened sites. You do not really have to destroy everything buried that deep. Just loosen the rock around the tunnel entrance and bury it for a while. If it is radioactive, trapped heat will do its work in time. If not, simply bury the salvage party from time to time, to discourage them. Or insert booby trapped bombs with that will go off months later if left undisturbed, instantly if tampered with.

Perhaps Iran has seen the handwriting on the wall. This appears to be the likely future for the muslime world...

In the end the rats are wiped from the nest or Iran will have a nuclear weapon. The terrorists will not reform nor will they be scared straight.
