    The analysis before the attack was that the bunker-busters probably wouldn’t make it all the way through the mountainside, so Iran could dig their way out and get everything back on line in a few months.

    Did this change, or is this just another case of Trump giving the illusion of having done something, when it’s all glitzy window-dressing and bullshit?
