Iran threatened to strike “Israel’s” Dimona nuclear reactor, describing it as a “Samson Option” to bring down the temple on its enemies if the United States carries out a plan for a ground invasion using the Kurdish card. There has been a line nobody was supposed to cross. Israel attacked the South Pars and that unleashed Iran attacking the Gulf States but seeking to cause serious damage rather than just a fire for TV. This is why Iran has not bombed the reactor so far, even though “Israel” has previously targeted Iranian nuclear sites. This is now on the table thanks to Netanyahu.
This time, Iran faces what it considers an existential threat from Netanyahu trying to keep assassinating the leadership in Iran as if that will bring down the government. Iran knows destroying the Dimona card may send a nuclear cloud that can even drift to Egypt in hours. This choice reflects the concept of “Samson,” which increases expectations that it might be used despite the enormous risks and regional and international concerns.
The Dimona reactor represents a symbol of “Israel’s” nuclear program. Targeting it would certainly carry dramatic consequences including the danger of a regional-scale radioactive disaster. Israeli may then respond with nuclear weapons, according to the doctrine known as the “Samson Option.”
Obviously, such an attack would lead to military escalation that cannot be contained. Iran knows that, which explains their hesitation up to now. But Netanyahu is trying to annihalate the Iranian government. If they are in such a danger, then there are no limits. This is all based on Netanyahu’s insane idea that just killing the Ayatollah would end the regime and spark an uprising. None of that has happened.
If such an otion is taken, it does not appear to be before June at the earliest. It still appears that this will continue in the Middle East until 2028.
