Many wondered why the Israeli Air
Force (IAF) did not attack on October 19, 2024 (Philippines’ time) the almost
complete Iranian nuclear facility at Isfahan and the petrochemical plants in
Khargh Island, Chabahar Port, and Bandar Abbas in Iran.
My answer: The nuke facility
is 40 feet deep in the mountain of Isfahan and the IAF could carry only
the U.S made Golden Horizon
Ballistic Missile (for the F-15 jet), Rocks’ air-to-surface missiles carried by
the F-16 jet, and the 250-pound GBU-39B bunker buster guided munitions. The lead
aircraft for that extraordinary mission were squadrons of the stealth Lockheed Martin U.S made F-35 Lighting II (39 on the IAF's inventory).

IAF has 66 F-15 A/C, F-15 I, and F-15 IA, 175 F-16 C/I, 2 Boeing 707 airborne
early warning and control (AEW&C) modified with active
electronically scanned array (AESA) radar, and 7 Boeing 707 air tanker
jets. Those fighter jets have been believed to refuel from the air tankers somewhere
in militarily weak Syria after they attacked the radar sites of that country and Iraq and the
surface to air missile (SAM) installations as first wave in the provinces of
Ilam, Tehran, and Khuzestan all in Iran, ballistic and hypersonic missile sites for the
second wave, and key military barracks, drones and missiles manufacturing
facilities, and command structure for the third wave. That operation took
almost 2,000 kilometers for that one way trip alone or more than the 1,430 kilometers length of Laoag Ctiy to General Santos City.
Countless armed drones were used by the Israelis as deception through the
11, 000 kilometers routes from the Red Sea, Gulf of Aden, Gulf of Oman, to
Iran. All of them except one were shot down by Iranian surface to air missiles’ Russian
made S-300 and homegrown Bavar 373 - Iran's version of S-300.
The nuke plant is impenetrable to all the ordnances brought by those more
than 100 fighter jets when it flew at one o clock in the morning of October 19 and
bombed through three waves from 2 AM to 3 AM of the same day and hit the
provinces of Ilam, Tehran, and Khuzestan.
The IAF needs the lethal monstrous 5,000 – pound GBU- 72/B bunker buster bomb
carried by an F-15E Strike Eagle that could penetrate and obliterate the
nuclear facility 40 feet below the surface of the mountain. If the U.S sees the
clear and present danger through this nuke plant against the existence of the
Jewish, err, Israelites when the Iranian weaponized it then the GBU-72 will be
the savior of their trusted ally against the Arabs and Muslims in the Middle
East where it can turn into the ashes the Isfahan’s leviathan that became the Mother of All
Insecurity among the Jews.
They done a similar adventurism
in their surgical strikes when the IAF destroyed the nuke plants of Iraq and Syria by using
the vaunted F-16 -C/I -- the same aircraft the American brought (12 of 'em) at Basa Air Base, Pampanga in April this year where U.S pilots from Japan told me they were armed with radiation homing missiles that destroy radar and surface air attack missile sites of the enemies whenever they try to open them.
Why the IAF did not bomb to
smithereens the exposed petrochemical facilities that are the main source of
foreign currency of the Supreme Leader and Commander-in-Chief the top cleric Ali Hosseini Khamenei
and his subalterns in Tehran where it sells the bulk
of it to oil guzzling China? Incase those U.S made jets who launched those
global positioning satellite (GPS) guided Golden Horizon Ballistic Missile and
Rocks’ air-to-surface missiles from Iraqi’s airspace – yes Virginia they did
not fly inside Iran thus all of ‘em went home unscatched -- then the people
of the world would be queueing on their pump stations as oil from
its present U.S $68 a barrel skyrockets to U.S$150 a barrel.
Not to mention retaliatory strikes from Iraninian missiles against oil facilities in Saudi, Kuwait, Oman and the civilian population in Israel.
Why? China, particularly, turns eventually to Russia for its oil while
competing with those European countries who buy their petrol from the former.
Remember how the economics' Law of Supply and Demand could affect this dilemma
when that law was being taught to us in highschool?
It took only the bravado of an
incensed Philippines President Joseph Estrada who frantically ordered his executives
to soldier on on their majority allies in the rubber stamp's Congress to
repeal that perennial economics law as it became a nuisance to his ears
everytime oil in the Middle East spikes. Anyway, that presidential blunder for
me looked like a joke, hahaha!
Israel bombing the oil facilities in Khargh Island (where 90 percent of
it goes for export), Chabahar Port, and Bandar Abbas?
Susmariosep! U.S President Joe Biden opposed it vehemently
because it could give the death blow to his heir apparent Kamala Harris as she
locked horns with the The Donald (Donald Trump) for the forthcoming acrimononius
neck and neck November 5 U.S presidential election. The Yanks would not like
their gas stations bill ‘em with an inflationary price for their vehicles while
they line up to cast their votes for their 47th president.
