Ex-CIA man: Iran blast largest sabotage case in decades
Me: This is far more dramatic than I thought. The explosion was at the secret underground reactor tunneled into the mountains by the holy city of Quom. All the exits appear to be sealed and radiation is apparently a major factor.
This is one to click the link and read.
Former Revolutionary Guards member tells 'Post' that such a blow to Fordow nuclear facility would harm Iran drastically; says Tehran "has decided to retaliate against Israel from Lebanon."
Asked why satellite imagery was not being released of rescue efforts at Fordow, Kahlili said only state intelligence agencies have access to live satellite feeds. "Why don't they put it out? My only assumption is that no one wants to take credit because of what the consequences could be by the regime," he said. "This is a very sensitive time. I'm sure that soon, very soon, more information will leak out. Chatter will get loud enough to provide further information." Kahlili went on to say that the "first suspicion is Israel" within the Islamic Republic. "I have verified information that there was a meeting [called by Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali] Khamenei. A decision was made to act in Lebanon. A request was made to [Hezbollah chief Hassan] Nasrallah to vacate southern Lebanese villages. Islamic Republic Guards are on their way there. A decision has been made to prepare for missile launch from a certain area in Lebanon against Israel," he said.
Iranian authorities have not yet made any progress in their attempt to enter Fordow, Kahlili asserted, adding, "I fear there is radiation involved." Iran's defense ministry dispatched drilling vehicles, "the same they used to carve tunnels and create underground facilities, to see if they can make any headway in opening emergency exists, because they collapsed. Among those stuck in the facility are dozens of foreign nationals. These are contracted scientists," he said.
Hold on to your hats...

Iran had better be prepared to pay the price of screwing with Israel. They are not going to just sit around and wait till their people are killed in huge numbers. Lebanon will probably get hammered like never before and Hezbollah will get it as well as any Iranians that join in.
