Fmr Top USAF Intel Official On Bombing Iran: ‘It Ain’t Going To Be That Easy’ | The New York Times reported this weekend that U.S. defense officials and military analysts “close to the Pentagon” said an Israeli attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities, should it decide to do so, “would be a huge and highly complex operation.” Israeli jets “would have to fly more than 1,000 miles across unfriendly airspace, refuel in the air en route, fight off Iran’s air defenses, attack multiple underground sites simultaneously — and use at least 100 planes.” “All the pundits who talk about ‘Oh, yeah, bomb Iran,’ it ain’t going to be that easy,” said retired Lt. Gen. David A. Deptula, formerly the Air Force’s top intelligence official.
