Yediot Ahronot reported. on Friday that former Iranian intelligence officials who defected to the West claim that Irans underground Fordo uranium enrichment facility has been almost completely demolished, and hundreds of staff members are at this moment trapped underground, This has to be the worst blow to Irans nuclear ambitions so far.
WND, an American news website affiliated with the right, reported Friday that a mysterious explosion has destroyed a significant portion of Irans Fordo nuclear facility considered Tehrans most fortified facility.

I seriously doubt Obozo had anything to do with this. 1). he wouldn't want to attack his Muslim brotherhood. 2). He would already be bragging about it, if he did.
You are exactly right.
..and there is the problem. WND may be right leaning, but they are closer to tabloid.
Primed and Ready: Huge Pentagon Bunker-Buster Gets Green Light For Possible Iran Mission 
Right, there’s been no ‘spiking of the ball’ lately.
Gotta think surveillance satellites would pick up something if it were nuclear related.
let the clumsy pukes poison themselves
That being said, I hope it's true.
No chance whatsoever the limp-wristed, jug-eared muslim enabler had anything to do with this, if this event did in fact take place. Interesting that the communist-compliant propogandists passing as media have provided no word suggesting this has happened; must be awaiting instructions from Sparky.
Mitch Rapp.
The Lord works in mysterious ways. And Israel too.
Well, it is possible that he had a lot to do with it. For example, if he got wind of it beforehand, he would steer it to the best of his ability to limit the damage to just Fordo, and not a more systemic blast at other sites, Natanz, etc.
DEBKA has nothing on it so I believe it could be true.
I am not sure what I am looking at. Is this after the rumored incident? Do you have picture of before?
picture of a mushroom cloud would be nice
Some confirmation at http://www.richardsilverstein.com/2013/01/27/scoop-irans-fordo-nuclear-plant-extensively-damaged-by-sabotage/ where Richard Silverstein says:
“A highly-placed Israeli source informs me that Irans uranium enrichment facility at Fordo has been extensively damaged by an explosion. The bomb was the work of a joint Israeli-U.S.-MEK sabotage operation codenamed Achilles, which used a Trojan horse to infiltrate the plant.
SNIP
“...But given my source, who added further details not published by Fishman or Khalili, I trust there was an explosion at Fordo. Further, I spoke with an Israeli security correspondent whose work is entirely independent and trustworthy. He too is confident there was such an event. He also agreed the information I published above was accurate as far as what he knows.”
Hopefully this story has more truth than tabloid and with the Federal Judiciary starting to find and strike down The Obamanation’s unconstitutional ways and means—
I may sober up a little...
and start wishing to live again!
If not true, it seems like we should be hearing denials out of Iran by now.
That would be great. I once told a bleeding heart lefty that we should use a small bunker busting nuke on one of the Iranian facilities and then act dumb about it. Suggest they made a mistake and must have accidentally set off one of their projects.
He became outraged at me. It was a little funny.
That is a before - look at the date in the properties
One week ago but not necessarily related: Primed and Ready: Huge Pentagon Bunker-Buster Gets Green Light For Possible Iran Mission . . . While no one will say so, Irans nuclear facility at Fordo buried up to 80 meters beneath a mountain near the Shiite holy city of Qom, at a former missile base controlled by Irans unpredictable Revolutionary Guards is at the top of that target list. And Tehran now knows it is officially vulnerable to attack. The warhead case is made from a special high performance steel alloy and its design allows for a large explosive payload while maintaining the integrity of the penetrator case during impact, the test report notes. Combatant Commanders use MOP to conduct pre-planned, day or night attacks against defended point targets vulnerable to blast and fragmentation effects and requiring significant penetration, such as hardened and deeply-buried facilities.
Iron Dome batteries deployed in north (Israel - today) The developments follow a mysterious explosion at Iran's underground nuclear centrifuge facility at Fordo. A Beirut newspaper implies that Israel was involved in the incident, and that the Israel Air Force yesterday flew over Lebanon yesterday.
Israeli Official Hints Pentagon Plans May Make Lone Strike on Iran Unnecessary (nine hours ago) The first was a covert plan called Olympic Games to undermine Irans nuclear enrichment plans with cyberattacks, according to participants in that program. The second layer of plans, American and other officials have said, involves covert means of interrupting the supply of uranium to Irans enrichment plants, or crippling the plants themselves. The biggest target is a deep underground plant called Fordo, near Qum. There, under a mountain, Iran is producing most of its medium-enriched uranium, which could be converted to bomb grade in a matter of months. The site is hardened, and probably beyond Israels ability to destroy from the air. The United States recently added a weapon that officials believe could do significant damage: the Massive Ordnance Penetrator, a bomb that is designed to attack deep, hardened sites. But the existence of any plans, officials note, does not indicate an intent to them carry them out.
Thanks Nuconvert. Now, we need a post. You know without doubt our gubment has real time surveillance on that place. They could come out with a statement that something has or has not happened.
A thread from Sat. evening. Nothing new on a web search that I find.

An after photo will not become available though post-able open source material for awhile.
As Nuconvert stated, it was a before overhead.
Just another tragedy resulting from a natural gas leak.
He has been out of sight for a few days. Who knows, he may have led in a seal team on this one. Probably now writing the script for the movie....THE IRANINTOR. “look up in the sky, is it a bird, is it plane, no it is the THE Iraninator, able to leap over teleprompters in a single bound. Faster than a snail, more powerful than a fart, yes it is The Iraninator...Strange visitor from Kenya who came to the US with powers and abilities far beyond those of moral men. The Iraninator who can change the course of freedom, Bend cook linguini with his bare hands. And who, disguised as Barry Soetoro mild-mannered communist representing the dummocrat party fights a never-ending battle for despotism, social justice, and the UnAmerican way.”
Oy Vey!
A Chicken Little cottage industry full of drama queens headed up by an opportunistic religious nutcase, as far as I'm concerned.
Which puts them at exactly the same standard exhibited by the NYT. A reality many Americans are too stupid and unobservant to notice.
Aye Bendy!!
Who could have done it? "Bond, James Bond" (only with an Israeli accent ;o)
May it be so Lord Jesus... Tagline.
The Black Iranian knight after having all four of his limbs hacked off with blood gushing from every limb wound =
"It is merely a flesh wound."
Bender did you drink way too much this weekend LOL!
Wait for Super Bowl weekend honey
I can’t believe that will all the Earthquake Experts we have here on FR that no one else has thought of this.
Is it because we would like to believe it happened, that our normally cynical and clever brains just melt down ?
All one has to do is check Seismic Activity Logs for that part of the Middle East, that area, on the day in question.
Such an explosion would register on them.
