So, President Trump sending a new warning to Iran as Israeli intelligence reportedly reveals the terrorist regime is moving nuclear centrifuges into a highly fortified area called Pickaxe Mountain.
>> We'll be hitting that area very probably pretty soon and there's not a not a thing they can do about it.
normally I wouldn't say that.
If I thought they could do something about it, I would never say that, but we'll be hitting that area pretty soon and and very heavily.
>> So, he told everyone he's going to do it and they can't do anything about it.
But, what is he going to hit?
So, first let's take a look at the Pickaxe Mountain complex.
The ventilation shaft might be a good way in.
That's where we went in to the Natanz nuclear complex there.
You open up the shaft and you follow it up with another rocket right on top of that, believe it or not, they can do it with very little problems.
But, this is roughly for us, it seems it it seems blurry and hard to distinguish.
For the satellite experts and what they are seeing is actually very deliberate and easy to detect.
Natanz nuclear site.
This is the way it did look after we hit it.
This is how it was obliterated.
What will we use?
GBU-57.
Now, it can only go down 200 ft, but if you go down 200 ft and then follow right away with another one to go another 200 ft, maybe you can make some damage to this Pickaxe complex, which is very much a mystery.
So, these are the some of the things that we have to do and we have to handle if we're going to handle Iran's nuclear program.
That is mainly what got us into this and the ballistic missiles are there to protect their nuclear program and actually protect the proxies.
Here to discuss this and more as former National Security Council official Richard Goldberg.
Richard, your thoughts about the president's statement about Pickaxe as we go over to the map.
What stands out to you as a real challenge or a strategy to attack it?
>> Well, obviously this is a facility that was their dream breakout facility they've been building for years.
Started in 2020, went all through the Biden years, they did nothing about it, you know, engaged through their appeasement policies, tried to get back to the nuclear deal, let them continue on construction and harden this facility.
It's deeper underground than Fordow was that you mentioned.
Now, you went back to that map there, you have those ventilation shafts.
We don't have the schematics of the facility the way that we probably had for Fordow.
Remember the IAEA inspectors had been down in Fordow for years.
We knew the facility pretty well and could map it out for an attack.
Uh we may not have that uh sort of granularity unless the Israelis or somebody have the intelligence to be able to inform that for for Pick Axe Mountain.
Mountain. However, the ventilation shafts, as you mentioned, could be a way in.
There's also power cables that could be a way in.
And then, if you just need a band-aid solution, try to deny access to facility for a certain amount of time, you obviously have the cave
entrances on both sides. Those are hardened, uh but they should be able to be degraded to the point at least that they'd have to try to dig it out to get back in.
>> I mean, the other strategy is what they call mowing the lawn.
You stay on top of it, you keep cameras on top of it.
Anytime someone goes into it, you blow it up.
And that's the same thing you could do and say if there's any activity among the collapsed complexes where we'd like to go in and get the nuclear material, the uranium that the president calls nuclear dust.
Some say if we're going to get it on our own, we'll need about 15,000 troops on the ground to do uh just that.
Your thoughts about what we should do next because we hit an 11th straight day we went last night and hit some sites.
We're getting closer and closer to hitting places like the capital and reopening the strait militarily.
How what what do you think we should be doing next?
Well, two things.
One, I I've personally called to hit Pick Axe Mountain for several years.
I think the president is right to do that if he thinks he has a military solution, he should take it,
especially if they have moved centrifuges into that facility. We do not want them to have a breakout inside this facility ever in the future.
They're going to continue hardening it.
You might as well do the damage you can now while we're in this operation.
Secondly, stay focused on the Strait of
Hormuz. Now, Admiral Cooper has a plan.
We are working the plan, 11 nights straight.
We are starting to move farther inland as was clear last night to where the Iranians are firing from, where they're coordinating from, the command and control, not just the capability to hit the Strait of Hormuz.
Let Admiral Cooper finish the job with what he has planned.
This is what we called Project Freedom several weeks ago.
We're seeing it play out. Now, the president may have other options on critical infrastructure that supports the IRGC's ability to hit the Strait.
It may be leadership targets that he needs to hit as well.
He should have all those options available, but stay focused in the mission here.
Deny nuclear weapons,
open the Strait of Hormuz.
>> How much more time does Admiral Cooper need?
>> My assumption is, and he has not stated this, and it's hard to evaluate because you're seeing these nightly strikes, and
