—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇱/🇮🇷 NEW: Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu proposed an ambitious plan involving Israeli 'commando raids' on several underground nuclear sites throughout Iran
Netanyahu wanted the raids to be supported by American airstrikes. When high-ranking IDF officials told Netanyahu the plan was incredibly complicated and would only be ready by October, he demanded it be prepared earlier, preferably by May. – New York Times

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇱/🇮🇷 NEW: There is a unanimous assessment within U.S. and Israeli military circles that an effective attack on Iran's nuclear sites cannot be carried out by Israel alone, and requires substantial American assistance to succeed
According to U.S. intelligence estimates, even with direct American support, a large-scale strike on Iran's nuclear facilities would likely only set its nuclear weapons program back by several weeks, or months at best.
U.S. intelligence has also assessed that a large-scale strike on Iran's nuclear program would likely result in Iran immediately starting the enrichment of uranium to weapons grade and going for a nuclear weapon. – New York Times / WP

— The fact that Netanyahu actually believes Israeli commandos can somehow enter Iran, avoiding air defenses, penentrate hundreds of kilometers inland, safely land in the most well-defended and fortified sites in the country, take out the nuclear equipment without resistance, get back on the helicopters, and leave, is just so insane.
I don't even know what to say.
The guy is actually completely nuts.

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NOTE: The U.S. tried to land special forces in Iran in 1980 (google 'Operation Eagle Claw')
At that time, Iran had just undergone a revolution, its military was in total disarray, and there were little to no air defenses or radars. Also, the landing site was in the middle of a desert and completely undefended.
Despite all of these positive conditions, 3 of the helicopters failed before even landing, and the mission was aborted. After the order was given to abort the mission, one of the remaining helicopters crashed into a transport plane, killing all those inside. This all without a single Iranian soldier being involved.
Bottom line: It is not easy to be Tom Cruise. If the U.S. couldn't do it in 1980, Israel can't do it in 2025.
