Wait ....what?? When did Israel use bunker busters?

#6  Spengler/David P Goldman doesn't expect war but notes that the Israelis hold the high cards:

Two dozen Israeli missiles or bomber sorties could wipe out Iran’s economy in a matter of hours, and that makes a war unlikely for the time being. Fewer than a dozen power plants generate 60% of Iran’s electricity, and eight refineries produce 80% of its distillates.

A single missile strike could disable each of these facilities, and bunker-buster bombs of the kind that Israel used last month in Lebanon would entirely destroy them. And as Hillel Frisch points out in the Jerusalem Post, with a bit more effort Israel could eliminate the Port of Kharg from which Iran exports 90% of its hydrocarbons.

#5  The last time Iran stepped out of line it lost half its Navy. This time it will see its petroleum infrastructure destroyed. With that, Iran, as now governed, will have an economy that will take a decade or more to recover.

#1  We see you when you're sleeping,
We're know when you're awake.
We know if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness' sake!
