[America's bombs fail to stop Iran] Early yesterday morning in Tehran America carried out a direct and illegal aerial bombing campaign in Iran against three Iranian nuclear facilities; the Natanz, Isfahan, and Fordo nuclear facilities were hit. At the behest of Israel, America deployed the GBU-57 or the “Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP). The MOP, also known as a “Bunker Buster” bomb, the MOP weigh 30,000lbs (13,000kg) and can penetrate 200ft (61m) of earth, and it's also able to penetrate 60ft (18m) of concrete. This is the largest bomb in America's arsenal outside its nuclear weapons. It was reported that the use of the MOP would only bring marginal success and would not destroy Iran nuclear underground nuclear sites in their entirety. It was also pointed out that radiation levels have not increased or decreased after America's aerial strike.

 

But what did happen almost immediately after the strike was Iran's deployment of over 50 missiles toward Israel which struck Tel Aviv, Haifa, and Jerusalem. Other targets of Iran missile strike toward Israel were Galilee, the Ben Gurion airport, and the Israeli occupied sections of the Golan Heights. American president Donald trump hailed his deployment of the MOP as a success as he stated that America's strikes on the three Iranian nuclear facilities were “completely and totally obliterated”. While that remains to be seen as there hasn't been any reports of radiation leaks, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) stated that both America and Israel “possess neither initiative nor the ability to escape retaliation”. The IRGC further stated that both America’s and Israel strikes on it’s nuclear facilities constitute as a:

 

“Blatant violation of international norms, including the UN Charter, the Non-Proliferation Treaty, and the principles of national sovereignty and territorial integrity”.

 

The IRGC also stated to the Press that:

 

“The Islamic republic of Iran reserves the right to respond within the framework of legitimate self-defense, including options beyond the enemy’s misguided calculations”.

 

Even though Israel has killed a sizable number of Iranian nuclear scientists including one within the last 36 hours, it has only strengthened the resolve of Iran and its up and coming younger and more progressive nuclear scientist. Iranian foreign minister Abbas Araqchi made the statement that president trump has capitulated into the demands of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and has broken his promise of not creating and getting involved into any foreign wars to the American people. While several gulf states such as Qatar have condemned the attacks, it is predicted that there will be no active or meaningful response of the gulf states as they are seen as weak when it comes to not only taking a stance toward America and Israel but utilizing their militaries to any extent.

While both Israel and America enjoy the fruits of limited success with America bombing Iranian nuclear facilities which have in fact failed to bring about the intended result. Both Israel and America will reel in despair soon (like today) as Iran continues to counter-attack and bomb Israel  and American assets in the region. Iran has not even come close to having to deploy its core strength of missile technologies and capabilities – therefore it is safe to say that not only there's a huge possibility that Israel would be rendered unlivable in the distant future but America has once again been sucked into another “Forever War” in West Asia.

 

Russia and China also have strategic interest in Iran as well, with their personnel being stationed at various locations within Iran. It’s a known fact that Russia has it’s personnel stationed at key Iranian nuclear facilities. With that it’s easy to see why America chose not to bomb the nuclear sites where Russian personnel were stationed. Therefore, it’s sad to say that America purposely bombed the “lesser” or Iranian nuclear sites most likely to appease the Israelis. For a president that built his platform on “ending all wars” and “putting America first”, for many people, the actions of President Donald Trump signal nothing of “Trump 2.0” but “Bush 3.0”.

 

When it comes to Iran's neighboring countries such as China and Russia, we predict that they will not enter the war directly but will indirectly supply Iran with all the weapons and support that it needs in order to defend itself. In the far east, North Korea is also expected to play a role, but to how much and to what degree, it's currently unknown. Our position is that North Korea will send weapons and ammunition. It should also be noted that since a nuclear power bombed a non-nuclear power, we are also predicting that there will be no shortage of countries around the world that will aid Iran in the development of some kind of nuclear arsenal for their own defense. A new door within Pandora's Box is open and there’s no going back.
