REVIEW OF SATELLITE IMAGERY OF THE FORDOW FACILITY AFTER TRUMP'S ATTACK:
From the satellite images, we can see there are holes on the mountainous surface of the Fordow facility consistent with my assessment that only minor damages occured at the entry doorways and perhaps the access tunnels leading to the subterranean caverns, which likely undamaged due to their depth.
Aside the from the holes, there seems to be crater (a.k.a "subsidence patch") which is less than 10 metres across and less than 0.5 metre deep. In other words, these crater is too shallow to have done any damage to the facility.
Overall, the satellite images indicate that Fordow facility survived intact.
The GBU-57 bunker buster bomb is guided both by GPS and Inertial Navigation System. Most likely, the Iranians have GPS signals jammed in their country. Like I said in the article, its very unlikely that bunker busters were used at all in American strikes on the nuclear sites. Most likely, it was cruise missiles fired from US naval vessels
So, what you are saying, Chima, is that the attack was more a "show", in order to satisfy Israeli lobbys, some political classes (neocons) and some public opinions in the United States (evangelical voters on one side, and aislationist, in the other, with a almost "fake and inoquous" attack). Once the symbolical attacked has been done, this can allow the USA to "freeze" the conflict on this levels of intensity, in order to continue it in low levels of intensity (grey zone, economical warfare, terrorism) in order to achieve some regime change in the future. ¿Will be this a good interpretation of the issue?
I don't know if Trump wants to freeze the conflict. His brain is controlled by his Zionist billionaire donor, Miriam Adelson the Israeli-American dual citizen. Besides that, the Trump Administration is filled to the rafters with Zionist hardliners who want war against Iran for "regime change" not just attacking some token nuclear sites.
I think if those highly influential Zionist individuals want Trump to attack Iran again to conduct "regime change", he will find a new excuse to do it. There is always the possibility of an Israeli false flag attack on USA that can be blamed in Iran. Such false flag incident would allow US citizens to go along with Trump's restart of an attack on Iran. Notice how American TV keeps talking of "Iranian terror cells hiding in USA". That is propaganda preparing Americans for the false flag that would be blamed on Iran.
My article isn't saying that US attack on the nuclear sites was merely for "show". It is saying that Trump wanted to launch a real attack, but he did not want to risk having slow-moving US planes shot down and US military pilots captured by Iran. GBU-57 bunker buster bombs can only be carried by subsonic B2 jet planes, which does not fly fast. So, there was the risk that Iranian air defence systems may shoot them down if they flew inside Iran.
Trump decided to take the easy way out. He fired missiles at the Iranian nuclear sites from US Navy vessels at a safe distance away from Iran. However, Trump is a man who likes to boast. So, he painted the fake picture of US military warriors flying their planes bravely into Iran and dropping gravity bunker buster bombs, completely destroying the nuclear sites, and then leaving without Iran daring to fire anti-aircraft weapons at them.

Satellite imagery indicate only 'possible' missile entry points. This is smoke and mirrors time. I wrote 2 days ago about how the public is being hoodwinked into thinking a conventional bunker busting bomb could do the job. https://philippajanewinkler.substack.com/p/bunker-busting-bombs-b-61s-are-nuclear?r=29y4p8. The satellite image is here:https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14836095/satellite-images-precision-US-attack-Irans-nuclear-machine-full.html
Interesting theory. The B2s would have to fly directly over to deliver those bombs, so even with perfect stealth they would be very vulnerable.
The Serbs shot down an F117 with much older tech because they knew the flight paths.
They would really have to be confident that the AA had been taken out.
Interesting analysis, thanks for posting. Can bunker busters not be guided?

You may be right. What caused the six huge holes in the ground, three of each in two clusters? They seem too big for Tomahawk damage.
