Claim 2: “In a historic joint military effort involving over 15,000 air strikes over the past six weeks, the US and Israeli air forces eviscerated Iranian air defenses, wrecked the Iranian navy and air force, destroyed Iranian missile launchers, stockpiles, and manufacturing sites, smashed Iranian plants and energy facilities that fed the nuclear and ballistic missile industries, assassinated senior scientists critical to the nuclear and missile industries, eliminated army commanders and leaders of internal repression forces by the thousands, and decapitated the radical clerical leadership that provided genocidal validation for Iran’s hegemonic advances.”

Claim 4: “The US and Israel targeted significant dual-use infrastructure, including petrochemical processing facilities and steel production plants that collectively account for 15% of Iran’s total GDP and over 60% of its non-oil industrial output.”

Claim 11: “Even without the capture of Iran’s highly enriched uranium (which reportedly has been buried in the ruins of Isfahan ever since Operation Midnight Hammer last year), Iran likely has no ability to produce a nuclear bomb at this stage since the entire manufacturing chain in which Iran advanced toward a bomb was hit.”

Claim 12: “Iran was also producing over 100 ballistic missiles a month, moving toward a situation where Iranian missile and drone stocks could overwhelm the defense of Israel and every American base in the region.”

Claim 14: “This, in violation of every nuclear restriction accord that Iran had signed with the West.”

Claim 16: “Operations Epic Fury and Roaring Lion have achieved their core strategic objectives: halting Iran’s advance toward nuclear weapons capability and significantly degrading its ballistic missile program – both of which posed a significant threat to Israel, Arab states, and Western interests.”
