Luke Vargas: 美国军方对伊朗的袭击仅使该国的核野心倒退了几个月,虽然关闭了两个核设施的入口,但没有摧毁其地下结构。国防情报局的损害评估得出结论,与白宫和特朗普总统的说法相悖,他们曾表示袭击目标已被摧毁。 Jared Malson: 作为《华尔街日报》中东记者,我深入研究了国防情报局的初步评估报告,该报告指出,尽管美国和以色列的袭击封锁了伊朗核设施的入口,但并未摧毁地下建筑,伊朗仍然有能力提炼铀,甚至可能已经转移了一些浓缩铀到其他秘密地点。这份报告与特朗普政府声称目标已被完全摧毁的说法相矛盾。尽管白宫否认了报告的调查结果,但以色列和美国情报机构将继续评估伊朗的核能力,而评估的难度在于伊朗地点的不可及性。以色列总理内塔尼亚胡曾表示,以色列已接近实现其战争目标,即消除伊朗提炼铀的能力并摧毁其弹道导弹武库。特朗普总统希望与伊朗达成新的核协议,而伊朗在该领域的能力是谈判的关键。 Donald Trump: 作为总统,我认为伊朗的核计划已经倒退了几十年,我不认为他们会再这样做。他们经历了地狱,最不想做的就是提炼铀。
