Iran's Supreme Leader claims victory over America!!
It's extraordinary how one man's victory is another man's defeat or the other way around. Seven US B-2 Spirit strategic bombers armed with 14 30,000lb Massive Ordnance Penetrator bombs flew into Iran with ease and total immunity and bombed three of their nuclear plants and flew home again unscathed, and Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the Supreme Leader, emerges from his own secret bunker and pronounces victory over the Americans. Perhaps he hasn't had time to speak to his intelligence people or go on a trip to Fordo, Natanz or Isfahan, the three attacked sites. But to declare victory would seem to be somewhat bizarre. Ok, the Iranians were obviously smart because it looks like they removed the 400 kilos of 60 per cent-enriched uranium, plus some key enrichment equipment before the B-2s arrived. But their programme to build a bomb which the ayatollah still denies, has clearly been set back by a considerable time whatever the different US intelligence agancies are saying. Obviously Khamenei feels he has to rouse his people to support him against the US but will the average Iranian actually believe their master when he declares victory? The reality is that if he and his regime try to restart their clandestine bombmaking programme, the Israeli air force will be back, and probably the B-2s as well, although the US will have to get on fast with producing more Massive Ordnance Penetrators, having used up possibly more than half of the existing stock. Judging by Khamenei's statement today, Iran will always remain a threat while he is in charge.
