Iran upped the ante very significantly, if it also offered a hint of backing down too, which demonstrates responsiveness to potentially violent incentives, hence the proposal to deploy all B-2 aircraft to Diego, Garcia of course, signalled as nuclear capable missions to Southern Russia and Mocsow, but to note the significance of Tehran in all that, which would mean accepting enrichment to 20 per cent but only under extremely, not a nail driven with a hammer into ass close, close monitoring at one research facilty in Tehran might be a reasonable deal to strike.
Moscow is the target Ivan places most value on, and they have always been nervous that in fact one B-2 could penetrate their air defenses and crater, not level but crater, the city, and thereby eliminate the Russian Federation from existence.
As to the good news, Iran said if Tehran is bombed, then they launch the missiles they tested this week at American forces, plus Israel, if f course there is a strike.
They didn't say don't hit other places, which is good news in all of this, and of course to bomb Tehran would be to endanger domestic power structures, an order of magnitude different than a semi-agreed upon exchange of Israeli bombardment of other locales in return for tacit acceptance of Hezbollah bombarding northern Israel, plus one Iranian missile salvo at non-Tel Aviv targets.
That would be an agreed upon war in effect, if one thinks it would play out that way, and only if one thought that the Iranian message over Tehran was at that level of intent.
Just to make sure, and to dissuade Russian intervention, that Iranian threat to attack American bases in the region, even granted that Aegis-Standard protection will not fail, 3 Richardson 17 Dre confidence is high, and bases that were numbered rather precisely in character, that is an argument for moving every B-2 that is feasible to Diego Garcia, since they can penetrate to Moscow from that location as well.
The good news is that if reports are correct, they said Tehran explicitly, which would mean that they would in fact accept some strike, and also that they would accept one 20 per cent enrichment facility under monitoring, , just not every strike, although that would also be rather obvious bait too, another argument for a B-2 migration to Diego, to make sure that if it's a trap, the right hands get smashed.
