Fordow is buried so deep in a mountain that it would likely take a direct nuclear strike to damage it.


Nasrallah thought the same thing. They dug a hole with delayed penetrators and smoked him anyway. With the attacks recently where they hit the radars at that site, they made perfectly clear that if they want to hit it, they can and there's not much Iran can do to stop them.

Been watching the footage online. Way more rockets were getting through then shot down and of course many of those shot down are also decoys. Gotta say im pretty unimpressed with the great iron dome. Turns out it is way more hype.

Nope. How many were neutralized? No significant damage reported.

It literally just happened and damage assessments aren't even complete.

Assuming the shooters were actually Iran sleepers that were activated, how is this much different than the pager attack? If Israel had used their sleepers to do this yall would be cheering it. Matter of fact, less ppl in total died at the hands of these shooters than women and children due to the pagers. And all Israeli citizens are IDF so this was arguably much less indiscriminate than the ridiculous pager attack.. JS

But of course, Israel gets their hands on F-35s, F-15s, and many other things.

This is crazy. Supposedly it is the one Palestinian dude getting killed from the falling fuselage of one of the intercepted missles.

It looks like it. The iron dome is iron doming right now.


David's Sling or the Arrows, depending on the incoming.

Iron Dome is for short-range rockets and mortars.

Iran isn’t going to cause this. They are no threat to the U.S. mainland

It would take a hot war with Russia or China that included use of nukes to be of any threat here

Missile rain on the Nevatim Airbase


Those aren’t missiles, but they are indeed parts of missiles that have been intercepted by the iron dome. Notice the trajectory and the tumbling of the projectiles out of the sky.

Hell, I’ve blasted snow geese with better aerodynamics than anything shown in that video.

All 500 drones and cruise missiles were intercepted long before reaching Israel. Out of 110 balistic missles, 100 were intercepted by Arrow 3 interception system, 9 got through and 5 fell around Nevatim airbase (in the Negev desert) and 4 fell on Negev Airbase but caused no damage at all.

Only damage to Nevatim Airbase was a slightly damaged C-120 from rock shrapnel, damage to an empty airplane hangar, and slight damage to an unused runway.

1 Bedouin young girl was injured in Negrev from shrapnel but not critically.

I would say that Israel did a phenomenal job on defending itself in this attack.


Picture of Nevatim Airbase damage where 3 cruise missiles hit. The other 2 hit in fields on the airbase causing no damage.
