I am told by experts that the underground tunnel at Isfahan is a MUCH harder target than Fordow and it is not clear whether the Tomahawks were able to destroy it. “There is no way they got in that tunnel It’s deeper than Qom - and harder rock,” well placed source tells Fox.
IAEA inspectors reported multiple times it was used for storage of UF6. (UF6 was one of the large precursor materials to make enriched uranium, but there was no enrichment going on inside of that mountain.)
President Trump, by deciding to launch a military attack against Iran, revealed six truths:
1. Israel not only failed in its ten-day military operation against Iran but was on the verge of defeat. Had Israel not been in a crisis, the U.S. would not have intervened
2. This is the first time that two nuclear-armed countries have launched a military attack on a non-nuclear country. This demonstrates that the NPT (Non-Proliferation Treaty) holds no real value specifically for the U.S. and Israel; it has merely been used as a political tool.
3. The U.S. military attack on Iran is a clear violation of the UN Charter—a fact that was officially stated by the Secretary-General of the United Nations. Thus, the U.S. has shown that it does not respect the UN Charter, despite being one of its principal drafters.
4. Trump's national security team either failed to properly assess the consequences of a U.S. military attack on Iran, or they were unable to dissuade the President—or perhaps the majority of them actually supported the decision. In any case, this event has further revealed the extent of Netanyahu's influence over the White House.
5. Iran has suffered irreparable damage, but the negative consequences of this incident are not limited to Iran alone—they will also harm the United States and jeopardize regional peace and security.
6. The attacks by these two nuclear-armed countries against Iran revealed that the NPT not only has no real value, but is in fact harmful. Countries like North Korea, India, Pakistan and Israel that rejected the treaty and developed nuclear weapons have remained immune from military attacks by nuclear weapon states.
As someone who has spent decades working tirelessly to advocate WMDFZ in the Middle East and resolve the hostilities between the United States, the West, and Iran, I regret to say that President Trump has destroyed diplomacy and made a grave mistake.

Yemen’s rebel government says it supports a vow by its armed wing a day earlier to hit US ships in the Red Sea should Washington launch strikes on Iran. “We affirm the Republic of Yemen’s commitment to the armed forces’ declaration that they were ready to target US ships and warships in the Red Sea,” the government says in a statement after the United States launched attacks on Iran.
