BS EDIT: US Strikes on Iran: Destabilising the World

By Business StandardPublished On Jun 24, 2025

What Happened

US B-2 bombers hit three Iranian nuclear sites — Fordo, Natanz, Isfahan — with deep-penetration bombs

Why Now?

Israel’s earlier strikes failed. The US stepped in, despite Trump’s vow to avoid new wars

Was It Effective?

Doubt remains. Iran may have moved enriched uranium. The strike’s impact is uncertain

A Legal Grey Zone

Iran wasn’t proven in breach of international law. The US acted unilaterally, without allies

Nuclear Deterrent Logic

Non-nuclear states face strikes. Nuclear-armed ones act with impunity. The message: arm up or risk attack

The Bigger Danger

The strike may spark more nuclear pursuits — by states less responsible than India
