US, Israel Assess Iran Nuclear Strikes, Core Sites Not Destroyed

News summary

Recent US airstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities, including sites at Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan, have not completely destroyed Iran's nuclear program as President Donald Trump claimed. Intelligence assessments from US and Israeli sources indicate the strikes have only delayed the program by months to possibly two years, with key components like enriched uranium stockpiles and centrifuges largely intact. These findings contradict the White House's narrative, with officials dismissing leaked reports as attempts to discredit the mission and President Trump’s achievements. Public opinion in the US shows broad concern about Iran's nuclear ambitions, with majorities in both parties supporting efforts to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons, though support for Israeli airstrikes is more prevalent among Republicans. Despite the strikes and heightened tensions, there remains debate within US intelligence and political circles about the immediacy and extent of the nuclear threat Iran poses. The situation reflects ongoing complexities in US-Iran relations and differing perspectives on military intervention versus diplomatic solutions.
