For many years, it’s been an open question whether Israel would have the capability — on its own, without the help or assistance of the United States — to neutralize the Iranian nuclear program.
The questions were technical in nature: Does Israel possess the kind of advanced “bunker busting” munitions designed to penetrate prepared and hardened facilities built precisely to protect themselves from air-delivered munitions? Does Israel possess the logistical capabilities, including aerial refueling assets, to facilitate long-range strikes on Iran (it’s just under 1,000 miles from Jerusalem to Tehran)?
