Smart bomb? Yes. Smart move? No.
The Freeman
|June 23, 2025
Yesterday morning the world woke up to news that the U.S. had bombed three underground nuclear facilities in Iran, doing a job that Israel couldn't with just their missiles and drones.

A gloating US President Donald Trump took to social media shortly later, praising airmen who dropped bunker-busting bombs on the sites in Natanz, Isfahan, and Fordow.
"We have completed our very successful attack on the three Nuclear sites in Iran, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan. All planes are now outside of Iran air space. A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site, Fordow. All planes are safely on their way home. Congratulations to our great American Warriors. There is not another military in the World that could have done this. NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE! Thank you for your attention to this matter," he said.
