Suspense mounts over when the US will join in Israeli pounding of Iran to completely destroy its nuclear facilities., one thing standing in the way is the Fordow facility, deeply embedded in a mountainous region virtually in the under belly which Israel cannot reach on its own it does not have the air borne or strike capability to take out this enrichment facility.

A centrifuge in an atomic reactor is the machinery that spews out uranium, the raw material for making the dirty bomb. You need an enrichment facility to turn uranium into plutonium of weapon grade to make the nuclear bomb.

Israel has succeeded per western media report all the centrifuges needed to get uranium. But enrichment facilities it has struck only a few including the biggest of them all at Nantz. Fordow is eluding Israel’s reach.

While US President Donald Trump cut short his G-7 visit to return home, he was sending signals to hawks in Washington that he was in charge and not them on the Iran Israel situation. While he may have hesitated in direct military action, fearing a backlash in Arab world and at home on retracting on the America first policy, the West German chancellor's statements supporting Israel should encourage him, incentivize him to act early.

Actions are better than words. Stating that US knew where Iran's supreme leader was hiding and that it had complete control over Iranian including the hideout of the Iranian supremo Ayatollah al Khameini, the 80-year-old religious pontiff. Billboards have emerged in Tel Aviv urging Trump to join the war.
