Dem Rep. Himes: Trump Administration Claim Iran Strikes Were Successful ‘Insane’

EXCERPT:

HIMES: "Kasie, stop. Look, that's insane. That's insane. You don't need to be an intelligence professional to know that we have no idea whether these strikes were successful. Now, if what you're looking for is a big boom and a large hole in the ground, I have very little doubt that our bunker-busters did a big boom and a very large hole in the ground. But, Kasie, we don't know sitting here right now whether the highly enriched uranium was in the Fordo facility or in the Natanz facility. We have no idea -- in the coming weeks we will develop a more specific idea, but we have no idea in the world right now whether these strikes were in any way successful. Look, I think all three facilities are probably smoking rubble right now, but the Iranians are not dumb people, right? There's some chance that, given that this raid was telegraphed for a couple of days, that they might have thrown a couple hundred kilograms of 60% enriched uranium into the back of a truck and moved it somewhere else, in which case you have got the possibility — and I will stress possibility here — that there's a lot of highly enriched uranium sitting underneath a hornet-mad regime that has decided that the only way we're going to forestall this in the future is to actually sprint towards a nuclear weapon.”
