So...
Trump has given up on getting 90 deals. (Did he get any?)
And is just gonna write letters to Mr. Country and tell them what he decided. No negotiation needed.

Ha! The most successful military strikes in history? By what fucking measure? Because the dropping of the two atomic bombs, which made Japan surrender, was the most successful strikes in history.
Two bombs ended a war.

The fight now is: What does obliterate really mean?

The centrifuges might be a different story.

"Obliterated" or not, unless the enriched uranium has been vapourised, it may still exist in some form. Any attempt at rebuilding, recovery or salvaging of either the product, or its means of production, is also a legitimate military target.

« Last post by markjo on June 27, 2025, 08:59:47 PM »Trump had been talking about the strike for days, so the site was most likely already evacuated, therefore it's doubtful that anybody was trapped or dying in the rubble.From the above PBS article:But the site was obliterated, according to Trump. Shouldn't have BEEN survivors. And if Israel just wanted to kill anyone who tried to assess damage just because they can... yeah, that's a war crime.QuoteThe Israeli military also confirmed it struck roads around Iran’s Fordo enrichment facility to obstruct access to the site.
They took out the roads to prevent emergency responders from trying to help people who may have been trapped or dying in the rubble. This is reprehensible, and likely a war crime. Attacking the survivors of a bombing is distinctly different than the bombing of the infrastructure itself.
