#6  Osirek was, as I recall, above ground. The Iranian reactors are deep below ground, in the best bunkers (?) the Germans can design... or perhaps it was the French, or the Russians, or... North Korea keeps their missiles deep in their mountains, I thought; where do they keep their nuclear stuff?

#2  RJ - just a single Tomahawk missile with a high-penetration warhead into the containment vessel. The Israelis did that to Iraq's Osirak reactor, and it never restarted. I expect them to do something similar to Iran. If the containment vessel is breached, it's hard to control the nuke reaction, and you have a choice between continuing to operate and becoming a radioactive cloud, or shutting down totally and starting again somewhere else.

#1  Complete waste of time and effort, send a loaded B 52, on second thought send many loaded B-52's, and see they return empty THEN ask if they'd like to "NEGOTIATE" any further.
