I'm certain the US knew now.

in reply to PowerCrazy • • •I mean yeah, they always know.
The question is how invovled were they in the attack itself (logistics, access to US surveillance, planning, etc.)
Trump seems to be implying this is "off hands" like he stopped engaging the Houthis in the red sea a while back.
I wonder if this is Netanyahu thrashing a bit in an effort to keep the US invovled, or the US proxying an Iranian attack with more plausible deniability.

in reply to rbn • • •I highly recommend watching the documentary Zero days which is almost a decade old now, but about stuxnet.
It was mainly developed by Israel and the US specifically to target this very facility (natanz), and try to blow up nuclear centrifuges and slow down Iran's nuclear enrichment program.
The project failed (only managed to slow down their program for a few months) and was a prime case of blowback, since stuxnet infected critical infrastructure around the entire world, and even the US had to devote considerable resources protecting their systems from a virus they helped create.
I believe there's a pretty low chance of any meltdowns or nuclear events, due to so many fail-safes.

in reply to Dessalines • • •Thanks for sharing your opinion. But wouldn't it still be a serious safety hazard for the local population through contaminated air/water?
And if no radioactive material is set free, isn't it still available to keep producing nuclear weapons? According to a German article Iran is estimated to already have sufficient Uranium for 15 nuclear bombs.
In my simple mind that means you either have to directly destroy that material (and potentially expose millions of people to it) or if you just destroy the production facilities, you can only slow down the enrichment of further material without impacting the current capabilities. Do I oversee something?

Iran requests emergency meeting of UN Security Council
Iran has requested an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council in the wake of Israeli attacks targeting its nuclear programme and military this morning, state media report.
Amir Saeed Iravani, Iran’s permanent representative to the UN, made a written request for an emergency meeting of the council, calling for it to take “decisive action … against these criminal acts”, Iran’s Tasnim state news agency reported.
“In a reckless, illegal and premeditated act, the Zionist regime has carried out a series of coordinated military attacks against the nuclear facilities and civilian infrastructure of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which are considered a clear violation of the UN Charter and the fundamental principles of international law, and whose dangerous consequences seriously threaten regional and international peace and security,” the letter said.

Interesting to see how this will shake out, as 3 / 5 ( US, France, and UK) will likely back Israel, with Russia and China backing Iran
