#2 I would assume that they are moving their "baby food" and "children's aspirin" factories underground as well. Maybe that will keep them safe from the "evil Americans"...but I doubt it!

#3 It'll be interesting to watch Congressional commentary on the development of nuclear earth-penetrating weapons following this announcement.

#4 "..air attacks would not be able to destroy it..." Even if we summon forth the black Jinn of Alaa Deen, who visage is so terrible that it causes the eyes to melt from the head and the bowels to turn to water? He be bad. Plus, I hear we have a space cannon that can put a 500kg ceramic projectile through a mile of solid rock. Golly, you never know what those boffins will think of next. Nuclear weapons are so mid-20th Century.

I am standing here in front of the Ayatollah Khomeni Formula Factory which provides nusishment to millions of Persian Children. President Rafsanjani assures me personally that there is no nuclear enrichment being done here as the radiation produced would contaminate the milk, and would make many babies ill.

#6 Every facility has entrances and exits, and any facility that is not above ground has even less of them.

#7 Administrative offices and especially shops and warehouses can serve as entrances to the Tunnel of Doomâ¢. Long term monitoring of the facility from the air and from space will establish the patterns of where things go. The rest is targeting details.

#8 Oh yes it's all for "peaceful purposes."

#9 Can we start letting some ~~war criminals~~ human shields set up tents on top?

Collateral damage: it's a good thing.
