Gee, seems like Team America should have really thought this all out.

 

 

 

This might require another one of Trump’s 4D chess moves.

Yeah that’s where I wonder what exactly they were moving…as we saw with Stutz net, those centrifuges are unbelievably fragile and susceptible to even minor disruption.  Makes sense as they spin at something like 30,000rpm and even interrupting the power will destroy them.  &nbsp

My basic understanding is that the enrichment cascade is the most challenging and resource-intensive getting from ~5% to ~60% or so.  After that, the process moves along much faster.  It’s possible they were unloading their latest batch of enriched Uranium hexafluoride, or whatever raw materials (like yellow cake) out before the expected strike.  

Dont get me wrong…taking out a seriously hardened facility like that is a good thing in general, but everyone on planet earth knew we had plans on precisely how to take it out without any regional bases so seems this wasn’t some crippling blow beyond losing the facility.  

IIRC, the hardest part is going from raw natural uranium to LEU at 5-10% enrichment. It gets faster and faster to enrich further once you get up the scale, so you'll go from 10->20 faster, and 20->30 faster still. If Iran was able to stockpile material and even a small cascade setup, they'll be able to enrich up without too much trouble. You don't need as many cascades if you're starting out with high grade uranium.

So given the level of saber rattling we were doing, I can't imagine Iran didn't have some reserve to seed their rebuild

Why won't you just die?

He's going to make it into his 90s like Kissinger and Pat Robertson.    But it is yet another item in the 'wild' category that our mango dictator is 79 freaking years old.

We'll still be left with the 77M fucking idiots that think this is all great. His death will be a fantastic reason to party, but then we all sober up in a few days and realize we're still proper fucked because Grok created a Trump AI agent, and they all decide to vote for it.

Iran reportedly told Trump at the G7 that should he attack, Iran would release sleeper cells already in the US and kill innocent Americans. I sure hope he was bluffing.

Oh, 100%.  Trump is a symptom.  Nothing ends with him.

I still want to see him in a casket, though.

You know Trump was walking around the White House all puffed up for hours after he thought up MIGA.  Simple fuck.

 

Make MIGA's great again !!!

europe's energy needs are met through the end of the century with a secular iranian government not committed to israel's destruction

Good point. My bad. I should’ve used more precise language. Iran reportedly got word to Trump through intermediaries at the G7 that should he attack, Iran would release sleeper cells already in the US and kill innocent Americans. I sure hope he was bluffing.

That would be pretty bad.

I don’t know why anybody would not expect this response from Iran.  We better hope that none of their enriched uranium makes its way here

Whether or not that conversation happened, I have no problem believing that there are Iranian-funded cells in the US right now.

I'm afraid we're gonna see something go boom domestically within days.

0 chance of that happening.

What? Right now there is no way for them to physically get one here.

You’re a fool if you believe Iran has even the slightest capability to do that.

It's all scare propaganda to manufacture consent for wiping Iran off the map, been going on for decades. They have to be a super scary enemy that could attack us at any moment.

Nevermind that we are doing this at the behest of not only Israel, but also the country the fucking did 9/11.

Doesn’t take much to transport a few pounds of enriched uranium.  Stuff it in a barrel with some explosives and put it in the back of a van.  That’s what I’d be doing.

How the actual fuck do you think anything from Iran gets all the way here? Nothing is going out of Iran without the US knowing about it either through direct surveillance or the network who is watching everything. Anyone that helps them do that is fucked. You think they are just gonna put it on a boat and get it here? Think they are gonna fly it here?

Yeah, I don't see any way they can nuke the US, even if they already have weapons-grade enrichment.

But I worry that we could see something simple and effective any day now.  Not a 9/11, but an OKC...

Would there be anything left of Iran if they did that?
