I don’t think people can even fathom what 180k pounds of modern explosives can do to the earth. CNN is desperate here

That’s 45 times more ordinance that was dropped on Dresden during WWII.
Uhhh, No.
180k lbs (I won't even worry about how much of that is casing vs. explosive) is 90 tons.
Google says:
"During the February 1945 bombings of Dresden, the Allied forces dropped approximately 3,900 tons of bombs. "
90 tons is not 45 x 3900 tons. It is 2.3% of what was dropped on Dresden.

You’re bad at math…

F=M*A The velocity a 30k lb bomb reaches after a fall of 7.5 miles is the kinetic energy needed to penetrate the 60+ meters through concrete and rock. There is a time delay fuse that only explodes at target depth. That warhead only contains around 5k of explosives. The Mark-84 (2k bomb) used in WWII contained 945lbs of explosives. So the MOP has roughly 5.2x the explosive power as the Mark-84. MOP uses the kinetic force for penetration.
Also we have the ability to drop it in a 10’x10’ accuracy. Unreal what we can do with that much mass and detail.

I kinda wanted to see the effects if we had chosen to deploy the "Rods from GOD" instead of modernized bunker busters.
But I realize the collateral damage would have likely thrown us directly into WWII.

The bombs weighed 30k lbs but only contained a little over 5k lbs of explosive. Most of the weight was the casing designed to penetrate concrete/rock without breaking apart.

Israel claims Iran moved it’s enriched uranium from the Fordow Nuclear Plant prior to the bombing strikes.
Yep, 2 days prior to the bombing satellite imagery showed what appears to be 16 vehicles lined up at the entrance to the facility. The worst case scenario is the uranium was moved to the Afgan border...big gulp!!

So?
It's pretty much useless without the centrifuges to further refine it. And you really think Mossad and the US didn't anticipate this and know exactly where they moved it to?

No they didnt, they say "may have" as in monkeys "may" fly out your butt.
Its a convenient way of keeping the US on the hook for future bombing support....but it aint likely....monkey butt

The bombing of Dresden occurred from February 13 to 15, 1945, when Allied forces dropped nearly 4,000 tons of bombs on the city,
Dresden = 4,000 TONS
4,000 TONS = 8,000,000 EIGHT MILLION pounds of bombs
The Allies dropped 45 times more bombs on Dresden.

Lol people with a brain know a ton is 2,000 pounds.
I'm not disagreeing with the purpose of your post but it is disappointing that the 98 upvoters didnt mentally smoke out the obvious mathematical error.
Dresden wasnt leveled by 4000 pounds of bombs lol, that would be two bombs out of one Lancaster.
I am a subject matter expert on the bombing of Europe in WW2, I have read a few dozen scholarly works on the subject.

That imagery has been debunked. The amount of uranium they have would be in special casing and a customized truck, one truck.
The photos are dozens of dump trucks filled with sand. They were trying to seal off the entrance to make penetration harder for the bombs.
Ironically, by going through the ventilator shaft instead, the covering of the entrance increased the concussion of the bombs when they went off......you know kenetic energy and such

Israel knows where the Iranians mived it to. Israeli intelligence has proved itself time and time again.
