The US military is the only military in the world that can take out Iran's military in weeks with minimal losses. Israel has a great "tactical" Air Force if not one of the the best, however in order to take out Iran's military it would need 1,000's of sorties per day for about a month or more and it simple doesn't have heavy bombers like the B-2, B-1, B-52 that can strike dozens of sites on 1 mission. Israel also doesn't have the F-22 which has far superior capabilities than any other plane including the F-35. Iran knows better not to tangle with the US Military. It's military and infrastructure will be toast.

Well - I dont think Iran is going for the Horns of the Bull, rather its scrotum. Arn.Sweden.

Time to act against Evil is now before another Holocaust happens.

with all that technology at their feet the best they come up with is a bigger bomb? what dummies dominated this project?

I dont believe Those Bombs penetrate 200 feet in solid Rock. Arn.Sweden.

we bomb every electrical plant and you go back to living in the stone age. They can't build nukes with NO electricity. And if they put women and children around the electrical plants, they become "martyrs," life is like that.

Iran is holding Israel hostage! When "we" (whoever will be "we") strikes Iran, it will at least trigger its proxies to strike Israel. And this will be some 10.000 Jihad Islami fighters together with a rain of missiles from Gaza and more than 8.000 Hezbollah fighters together with a rain of some 40.000 missiles from Lebanon. Looking at the recent development in Syria, it is not unlikely, that its forces also will become involved, using the turmoil to clean up at home with much more excessive force than we already have seen. We need to be aware of this! The only strategy to avoid too many casualties in Israel is that Israel becomes massive against these three proxies, too, and blasts their capabilities within the first few hours.

Bouth The IDF and The US Military are Professionals I think !. Arn.Sweden.

Sounds like Y-Net and some of this site's readers have plans for use of this weapon. Have to wonder what plans, if any, the US administration has for the use of the weapon. Y-Net is all excited about two known nuclear facilities in Iran that are known not to be weapons producing sites. Taking out sites known to be doing nothing towards bomb production seems a bit wasteful. It is nice to know that the B-2 can fly given it was designed to penetrate Russian airspace and nuke them. I doubt that is in the cards anymore. So now, does the US capability extend to cracking the Earth's crust? Would that be a good idea? And how much do these things cost?

No matter what, Israel will have civilian casualties. As long as Israel holds Judea and Samaria, the attacks will be painful, but no more than that. If Israel surrenders Judea and Samaria to the Arab occupation, there won't be anymore Jews in the Middle East.

Don't discount Israel, particularly since you likely have no idea what comprises Israel's materiel. Whatever on earth makes you think that Israel's strikes are limited to aircraft of which you know? I agree with you that Iran is toast. I do, however, urge you to recognize that Israel's military capabilities are superlative. Frankly speaking, the United States has not conducted itself all that well in Afghanistan -- where the Taliban is now resurgent -- Iraq or South Waziristan. You get a tommy point for trying, but you have also caused several hundred thousand civilian casualties. Well -- if you can, so can Israel; right? By the way -- the proper spelling is "sheikh." Note the "h." Rattle and roll on.

information? Roll over and play dead? Maybe just say: oh well, never mind our investment, now we stop all this because you have a BIG bomb! What nonsense all this " info-war"...

What is the current exchange rate of trust : bombs ? Can you measure trust ? What is required is vision, courage and trust building on the international scene. The Gordian Knot can be cut.

Odunbo is trying what he can to get out of Afghanistan and Iraq ASAP. Libya is a disaster in the making as is Egypt. Syria will implode, dragging Israel into the fray with Lebanon being the firing line. Odumbos entire ME policy is a disaster. The economy in the USA is in the tank. Europe is in the tank.. The republicans cant get it together to save their lives...They are pathetic. Odumbo will be relelected as there is no one there to challenge him. He is playing the Iran card to shore up financial support from the dumb American Jews who still support him. The Israelis of course are shnorrers waiting for him to become a mench...that wont happen. ISRAEL IS ON ITS OWN...ALWAYS HAS BEEN ALWAYS WILL BE. Get it together or you will be toast...No one will come to help you...That I can promise you.

Unfortunately there is no war without civilian casualties.Always happen and it will happen again.Name of the game

With bombs that heavy, they wouldn't even make it to the shores of Iran before they're blown out of the skies..I take this as info-wars and psy-ops - Which Iran isn't really that impressed by.Nothing and no substance behind it..Please tell the US to build a 50,000lb bomb instead of a measly 30,000lb. We've been waiting for them for years.

Unfortunal, these bombs will not be dropped on Israel for the sake of humanity, but on innocent people in M.E. or Persia. Like the Bible say, Satan has little time left to misslead many into the last conflicts, before God destroys satan, then creates Hevanly Jerusalem for WHOLE!!!! mankind - spiritual Jerusalem and not some real citi!!!... Sure, war in M.E. will happened and Israel will then unleach its arsenal of illegal wMD to 4 corners of the world so 2/3 of world population will die togheter with all these "false religions" in the WorldJust like Jesus dealt with Religious leaders in his days, Gog togheter Jesus will deal with them during last conflict.- this time for good.peter czech

There have been news stories tracking the development of this particular MOP going back to 2002 as far as I can tell. Okay, so now it's a done deal. I found two items of note: 1. The U.S. was not scheduled to take delivery of these bombs until next summer. 2. "On November 14, 2011, Bloomberg reported that the Air Force Global Strike Command started receiving the Massive Ordnance Penetrator and that the deliveries -- 'will meet requirements for the current operational need.'" (Wikipedia)

Please not that Israel does not need bunker busters and B-2 to neutralize atomic facilities in Iran. All what is needed is an atomic bomb that will render the surroundings harmful fo humans. No one would be able to work there anymore. So, no bunker buster, no complicated schemes, just missiles able to deliver atomic bombs to their targets. Israel is supposed to have 250 nuclear bombs. It can spend 100 to end with Iranian nuclear ambitions.

OPEN for overflight...and the illegal Iranian nuke plants will be DOOMED...hopefully the US will at least start a mop up operation on their own...oh well...

Just for information: when the B-2s come, there is nothing left from the Iranian air defense. And you won't simply be able to "blow anything out of the skies".

This comment of yours was the most lost of everything I have Read. I suggest that you consult with the Holy Sprit before coming with any new Commentarys. You have not the slightest insight about what you are writing. Arn.Swede,

UB40 or Level42, sounds better.

All he does is pander to the French and the rest of Europe. He'll never use the missiles. I think it's funny that the leader of the worlds biggest coward country and the biggest coward the US has ever elected were caught insulting the leader of G-d's chosen land.

They won't be.

Do you honestly believe Iran's antiquated Shah era air force has the capacity to take on the high tech US arsenal? It is my understanding a high percentage of Iranian buildings don't even have indoor plumbing. Perhaps your government should have expended their efforts in building toilets vs nukes.

The thing that shocks me the most is the total absense of the fact that Iran isn't just a threat to the Middle-East, they are a threat to the entire world. They truly believe that the threat of shutting down the Oil markets will destroy economies? EARTH to Iran, all you wil do is wake the world up to start using other forms of energy, yes, it will take a while, but it will happen. It amazes me how the world and even the Middle-East contries have allowed Iran to get this far. This is one Kentucky Country boy that says God Bless Israel. May he always protect you.

With Obama in the WH, the world cannot depend on him for leadership. It is time to stop dreaming. The Ayatollahs know that Obama has no balls.
