Trump: US launches strike on three nuclear sites in Iran

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/...s/84303364007/

The move comes after Iran and Israel have been engaged in aerial strikes and Trump had been pondering US involvement for the past week.

The United States launched the attacks on three nuclear sites in Iran on June 21, President Donald Trump announced on Truth Social, as the Israel-Iran war entered the second week.

"We have completed our very successful attack on the three Nuclear sites in Iran, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan," wrote Trump on Truth Social on June 21."All planes are now outside of Iran air space. A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site, Fordow."

The conflict began a week ago when Israel started conducting airstrikes against Iranian nuclear and military sites, primarily targeting uranium enrichment facilities to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons. The two countries have been engaged in aerial strikes and Trump had been pondering U.S. involvement for the past week.

Don't recall if or when the US Congress declared war on Iran ...

The US President does NOT have authority to wage war on another nation without Congressional approval and a formal declaration of war.

PLUS, bombing a nuclear site has extreme implications far beyond an attack against a standard building or landscape!

Dahboo7: Trump Just Bombed Iran, 3 Nuclear Sites Hit by Stealth Bombers- Expect Major Blowback to Follow



Summary:
Hours after U.S. Air Force B-2 Spirit stealth bombers departed Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri en route to the Indo-Pacific region, President Trump announced that U.S. forces had "successfully attacked" three nuclear sites in Iran: Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan.

There has been no confirmation from President Trump regarding what type of USAF bombers conducted the strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities.

However, based on timing and strategic capability, it is plausible that B-2 Spirit stealth bombers—previously observed departing Whiteman Air Force Base—were involved in the operation.

Note: Dahboo is saying "blowback" may be cyberattacks. Certainly Iran has cyberattack groups like nation-state actor, Mint Sandstorm, for example.

A roundup of reactions as US joins Israel’s war and attacks three Iranian nuclear sites after days of speculation over US involvement in the conflict.

Summary:
June 22, 2025

The United States has bombed three nuclear sites in Iran, further escalating the war between Israel and Iran.

President Donald Trump late on Saturday said the US attacks “obliterated” the Iranian facilities in Fordow, Isfahan and Natanz as he threatened more strikes to eliminate the country’s nuclear enrichment capacity if Tehran “does not make peace”.

Iran acknowledged the attacks, saying its personnel working at the nuclear sites were evacuated before the attacks.

The US strikes came more than a week after Israel launched a military campaign against Iran, which retaliated with missile attacks, resulting in hundreds of casualties on both sides.

Here are some key reactions from around the world following the US strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites:

Iran
In his first public remarks after the strikes, Iranian Minister of Foreign Affairs Abbas Araghchi accused the US of breaching international law.

“The United States, a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, has committed a grave violation of the UN Charter, international law and the NPT [Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty] by attacking Iran’s peaceful nuclear installations,” Araghchi said in a social media post.

“The events this morning [Sunday] are outrageous and will have everlasting consequences. Each and every member of the UN must be alarmed over this extremely dangerous, lawless and criminal behavior.”
He added that Iran “reserves all options to defend its sovereignty, interest, and people”.

Israel
“Congratulations, President Trump. Your bold decision to target Iran’s nuclear facilities with the awesome and righteous might of the United States will change history,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a televised statement.

“History will record that President Trump acted to deny the world’s most dangerous regime the world’s most dangerous weapons.”

United Nations
“I am gravely alarmed by the use of force by the United States against Iran today,” Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said.

“This is a dangerous escalation in a region already on the edge – and a direct threat to international peace and security”, he said, adding that there is a “growing risk” that this conflict could “rapidly get out of control – with catastrophic consequences for civilians, the region, and the world”.

Guterres called on member states to “de-escalate” and “uphold their obligations under the UN Charter and other rules of international law”.

“At this perilous hour, it is critical to avoid a spiral of chaos. There is no military solution. The only path forward is diplomacy. The only hope is peace.”

See the NEW rail line from China to Iraq. David shows a LOT of maps.

In this video, David DuByne shows many maps of heavy infrastructure construction in-between China, Iran, Russia and Europe with a NEW railway and many oil pipelines. Obviously, this contributes to the REAL reason for the Iran bombing actions.
