The conflict between the U.S. and Iran has reached a critical point following Operation Midnight Hammer, where the U.S. bombed three Iranian nuclear sites—Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. This intervention follows Israel’s initial strikes on Iran’s nuclear and military infrastructure on June 13, which killed top Iranian officials and scientists. Strategic and Military Implications

• Weapons Used: The U.S. deployed GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) bombs, capable of destroying deep underground facilities. B-2 bombers carried out the strikes, flying nonstop from Missouri.
• Iran’s Response: Iran is expected to retaliate by attacking U.S. bases in the Arabian Peninsula or Iraq, similar to its response after the U.S. killed General Qasem Soleimani in 2020.
• Regional Impact: The war has already resulted in hundreds of deaths in Iran and dozens in Israel, with thousands wounded.

Political and Diplomatic Fallout

• Trump’s Decision: President Trump initially suggested delaying military action but ultimately decided to strike, citing concerns that Israel’s attacks had only delayed Iran’s nuclear program by six months.
• Congressional Debate: The strikes have sparked deep divisions in Congress, with some lawmakers questioning their constitutionality. While some Republicans praised the action, others warned of deeper entanglement in Middle Eastern conflicts.
• Iran’s Nuclear Program: Iran insists its nuclear program is for civilian purposes, but Israel and the U.S. argue it poses an existential threat
