GBU-57A/B MOP (Massive Ordnance Penetrator) |
UPDATED 19 June 2025: The world waits for President Trump's decision to eliminate the Iranian Twelver regime's nuclear weapons program at the Fordo complex. The image above illustrates the only weapons system on earth capable of achieving that end: A B-2 Spirit stealth bomber and GBU-57 MOP. And it will likely require several B-2 Spirits dropping their MOPs in succession to ensure the destruction of Iran's deeply buried Fordo nuclear weapons complex. When several B-2s were announced to have arrived at Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean weeks ago, this is precisely the message that was sent to Tehran.
22 June 2025: The above image became a reality, times 12, on Fordo during the evening hours last night. The OPDEC employed by American armed forces was magnificent. Full coordination with the IDF was equally magnificent. American submarines also launched a hailstorm of Tomahawk SLCMs at Isfahan and Natanz nuclear sites. Reliable battle damage reports from Iran and the retaliation upon Israel will come out today. Iranian retaliation against the US forces in the Arabian gulf has so far not taken place.
OPERATION MIDNIGHT HAMMER
New Battle Damage Assessments (BDA) are becoming available now. The precision of the GBU-57 MOP drops on the under-mountain Fordo nuke site were beyond anything seen previously.
To say the impacts were "impressive" as a descriptive term is massively insufficient. All 12 MOPs entered the Fordo main cascade hall, and they did so via six initial impact points, meaning two 30,000 lb MOPs went through each of the same initial impact points with each successive MOP burrowing deeper and each 5,300 lbs of explosive charge creating successively greater damage.

Two groups of three impact points. Via X. |
The B2 crews flew nonstop from the central US mainland, dropped their two-each precision ordnance onto a target the size of a washing machine, and then flew nonstop back to the USA. That's well over 63,000 pounds of very high explosives delivered with pin-point accuracy. Trump was correct, Fordo obliterated.

US strike path same as IAF strike path into Iran |
The just under twenty trucks imaged at Fordo on Friday were delivering fill dirt to seal the entrances. This was done because the IRGC feared that special operations troops would enter the mountain facility. Any IRGC troops inside the sealed Fordo complex were likely vaporized.
U24 June 2025: In the angel Gabriel's 70 Weeks prophecy to Daniel there is a single verse which spans the the entire length of time, from Jesus Resurrection to the beginning of Israel's 70th Week of Years, which is initiated by antichrist's confirmation of a covenant among many [nations].
The end of it shall be with a flood,
And till the end of the war desolations are determined.
We are witnessing this flood; we are in 2025 AD at the tail end of the 1,992 years since Messiah the Prince was "cut off" circa 33 AD. There is not a single prophecy about this period of time that has not begun an active process of literal fulfillment.
There are additional major prophetic events that are about to take place and they come straight from the texts of Isaiah, Ezekiel and others the LORD ordained to speak for Him through His Spirit. At any instant our Harpazo (Rapture, Laqach) will occur.
Final Update 25 June 2025: The so-called "12 Day War" is over. Immediately following the surgical and spectacularly successful B-2 Spirit strikes and submarine launched Tomahawk missile strikes the Twelver regime cried "Uncle" and notified the US directly of their 14 missile strike on Al Udeid Air Base and when it would occur allowing US defenses to obliterate all 14 missiles in flight. Iran has been militarily neutered and now is a third-rate power, just as Ezekiel prophesied in equating Iran with Libya and Sudan.
However, also as foretold in prophecy the pre-70th Week wars and rumors thereof have not ended, they will continue all the way to the soon Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.
The decision we await is actually an OPORD (OPerational ORDer) from the POTUS to launch an already approved plan of attack. What we do know is that, if ordered, the attack will be swift and devastating.
ReplyDeleteThe hold of the OPORD is for Iran to agree to an "unconditiinal surrender" offered to the Twelver regime, or what's left of it.
DeleteYesterday the Twelver's regime flat-out rejected that, which is no surprise coming from the jihadist Shi'a regime. It would be unheard of for jihadists to unconditionally surrender to 'infidels.' It would be a complete betrayal of their theological and eschatological belief system. The al-Mahdi and their god proven to be false.
Accordingly, if ordered the strike will occut within two weeks time. Wars and rumors thereof.
DeleteThe assassination of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is now an objective for the IDF to achieve.
ReplyDeleteWe know that Mossad and the IDF have a special operations force inside Iran. New info suggests additional heli-borne commando units have entered Iran from the west.
Jeremiah 49 does NOT prophesy that an earthquake will subdue the Persian Twelvers in this conflict.
ReplyDeleteWhat the LORD said through Jeremiah is:
"I will bring disaster upon them,
My fierce anger,’ says the Lord;
‘And I will send the sword after them
Until I have consumed them."
Personnal opinion: The American recompence against the Twelver Islamic Republic of Iran should be as robust and thorough as possible.
ReplyDeleteIt was quite robust and possibly not finished yet - depending on the Twelver reaction.
DeleteLatest info is that yesterday Iran fired a cluster munition warhead at Israel. The cluster munitions were ejected from the warhead at an altitude of 7 kms (4.3 miles) resulting in the bomblets landing within a well-defined elipse of a few miles. To say that Israel is miffed about this is a gross understatement
ReplyDeleteWhy does President Trump continue and repeatedly hold on whether or not to attack Iran?
ReplyDeleteIt's very likely because neocons in DC want exactly that - war with Iran. So Trump is duly resisting the "Establishment" war hawks. Trump figures, I am told and probably correctly, that bombing Iran won't end the war, it will start a wider, long-term war.
One GBU-57 will not destroy Fordo, several used with pinpoint precision might succeed in that. But, again, that starts a bigger war.
So, hopefully, Trump will allow Israel to finish Iran all by itself and do what all the neocons have forever said it cannot do.
Israel can do it, Israel alone can significantly reduce if not eliminate the Iranian nuclear threat. The IDF is chock full of surprises; they'll surprise the world yet again.
Bro. Sean; Absolutely spot on IMO - and of course there is the 'Michael' factor. Bro. Steve.
Delete"So I prophesied as He commanded me, and the breath entered them, and they came to life and stood on their feet, an exceedingly great army." (Ez 37:10)
Deletethank you for addressing that. as you say (repeatedly and correctly), reject the mainstream media because you won't get the truth. one source says trump is criticizing Israel, another says he's quietly supporting them and another says he's fighting with Israel.
Deleteso once again thank you for addressing this. until this thing with Iran is over I'm STRICKLY following this blog for updates concerning Iran
Jon Hartman
Chuck,
DeleteYES! Ezekiel (son of man) spoke the prophetic word that God sent through him and an exceedingly great army was stood up. Let us all pray such prayers in the Spirit!
Jon,
DeleteThe Truth is that President Trump has directed America's armed forces to fight for Israel (blessing to Israel). There are four U.S. Navy Arleigh-Burke class destroyers very near Israel's Mediterranean Sea coast who are tasked with shooting down Iranian missiles. Better than 90% and sometimes 100% are being destroyed above the atmosphere by SM-6 interceptors. It's highly coordinated with Israel air defense in designating who shoots down which incoming warhead.
To their detriment the MSM, as directed by globalist handlers, have been informing the Twelvers via news reports, print and televised, that Israel is running short of antimissile defenses and other nonsense about Israel's capabilities. What they are oblivious to is that the God of Israel's fathers is defending, as is the archangel Michael. Israel has supernatural defenses!
Good Morning Sean, Do you happen to any insight as to possibly where Iranian-backed terror cells could hit starting this weekend? Just wondering since I'm seeing several reports of this. Bless You! Jr.
ReplyDeleteJr.,
DeleteI have just seen a report that the IRGC is observing the location where our B2 bombers flew from. Unknown if terror cells will strike there.
Iran appears to be making an effort to block the Strait of Hormuz. Commercial ships have been moved into active traffic lanes.
Meanwhile the IAF is sending sorties of 20 to 50 strike aircraft (Adir's, Sufa's and Ra'am's) into Iran around the clock to destroy missile bases in tunnels, and collapsing the tunnel access points for others trapping troops and war materiel inside.
ReplyDeleteJeremiah 49:36
ReplyDelete"Against Elam I will bring the four winds
From the four quarters of heaven,
And scatter them toward all those winds;
There shall be no nations where the outcasts of Elam will not go."
Well, Trump did what no one else would or could. Where will this lead? Isaiah 17 and Ezekiel 38.
ReplyDeleteIs radiation what a scatters the Iranians ?
ReplyDeleteWe'll soon find out!
DeleteAlso, American EW (Electronic Warfare) over most of the Iranian landmass was truly epic; it basically turned Iranian electronics off during the strikes and may even be continuing this morning.
ReplyDelete"ANY RETALIATION BY IRAN AGAINST THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA WILL BE MET WITH FORCE FAR GREATER THAN WHAT WAS WITNESSED TONIGHT. THANK YOU!"
ReplyDelete- DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
Iran's Twelvers continue to raise their heads and voices, claiming they will "target all American interests in the Middle East."
ReplyDeleteThis war will continue as a "wider, long-term war."
Logic dictates that US overhead (satellite) intel collection assets were observing the long line of transport trucks staged at the Fordo complex on Thursday and Friday; that whatever was in the transports was tracked and struck. Eventually confirmation of this logical dictate will be made public.
ReplyDeleteI have seen the PHOTINT (photographic intelligence) of the transports outside the primary tunnel entrance on Friday taken at about the time the B2's went wheels up.
Bro. Sean… this operation was termed “Rising Lions”. With the involvement of America now, do you think could firmly cement the USA as one of Israel’s “young lions”? It hits me similarly to the post you had awhile back regarding the “driving out the Sidonians”… the Word of the Lord being superior in every single way.
ReplyDeleteE Tallent,
DeleteIt's "the merchants of Tarshish, and all their young lions..." which I do interpret as the European merchant nations and their former colonies. Without any question, IMHO, the USA is one of the "young lions."
FWIW, and IMHO, it doesn't look to me like the prophecy given to Jeremiah has been completely fulfilled yet (minus the restoration in days to come of course). I suspect that there will be 1 or more additional events (involving other nations, maybe?) - the "4 winds from the 4 quarters of heaven" sounds like possibly more than the USA and Israel get involved (?) The flight of Iranians from the affected area(s) has also not taken place yet. There must be something serious in the cards for God to have told Jeremiah that "there will not be a nation where Elam's exiles do not go."
ReplyDeleteAs noted previously, Jeremiah 49:34-39 is a prophecy that dovetails with Ezekiel 38/39. They both conclude in tandem and just prior to Israel's 70th Week of Years.
DeleteDmitri Medvedev of Russia (Magog) says there are some countries with nuclear weapons (North Korea, Pakistan, Red China and Russia) that are willing to give some of their nuclear weapons to Iran. North Korea and Pakistan are the top contenders.
ReplyDeleteThe current situation is extremely dangerous and could quickly devolve into a world war with WMD use.
The IRGC Navy says it will attack the US Navy. Huge mistake if they do.
ReplyDeleteDon't touch our boats!!
DeleteRegime change in Iran? Really? Seems all media outlets are huffing and puffing about regime change in Iran.
ReplyDeleteBible prophecy points to an entirely different scenario as we all are very well aware of.
How interesting would it be if an Iranian missile, or two, hit the Temple Mount and destroyed you know what?
ReplyDeleteJust a random thought.
Whoo boy! I was thinking just that yesterday.
DeleteBro. Sean, I've often wondered the same - that, or perhaps an earthquake. Those (islamic) stuctures are not well maintained and I've heard they may have partially collapsed before. Bro. Steve
DeleteBro Steve,
DeleteAt least four times have earthquakes destroyed or caused significant damage to islamic structure over The Rock. The most recent was the Jordan Valley Rift quake of 1927.
Scripture tells us big quakes will occur here in these 'last days', so quakes are the mostly likely cause.
I note that when the first and second Temples stood there were zero damaging quakes.
The Congress’ hair would light on fire and Israel would be blamed.
ReplyDeleteAnd the screeching from the squad will reach an unbearable crescendo.
Zoe
The whole region around the Fordo complex is very rugged, difficult to traverse. For this reason the IDF confirmed the access road to the site was attacked with IAF airstrikes.
ReplyDeleteIran has attacked American bases in Qatar (Al-Udeid Air Base) and Iraq. Reports of Kuwait air defense going active. Bahrain also at high alert.
ReplyDeleteNo damage at Al-Udeid AB, Qatar, all missiles intercepted in flight.
DeleteIraq denies any Iranian missiles fired at Al Asad Air Base.
DeleteQatar may have given the Twelvers "permission" to fire at Al-Udeid AB in order to allow the Twelvers a "face-saving retaliation. The Qataris clearly had foreknowledge of the Iranian attack. This event is over.
Israel and Iran ceasefire to start at 07:00 tomorrow morning. This supposed to be a phased ceasefire.
DeleteI do not believe this is true.
ReplyDeleteThe Twelvers have been beaten, badly, and as an islamic regime (Hojjatieh Shi'a) they would do just about anything to achieve a temporary hudna. But this makes no sense on any level. It's antithetical to their theology and eschatology.
Meanwhile... the war continues. The IAF just shot down four drones Iran sent to attack Israel.
ReplyDeleteThere is no ceasefire. Iran launched a deadly missile attack as ceasefire (hudna) was to begin. Israel responded with tremendous strikes against the Twelver regime in Tehran.
ReplyDeleteAgain there is nothing more to say about the current situation than what the LORD has spoken...
ReplyDelete"I will bring disaster upon them,
My fierce anger,’ says the Lord;
‘And I will send the sword after them
Until I have consumed them."
So it's not over yer...
ReplyDeletePrecisely. The 12 Day War between Israel and Twelver Iran has ended with a ceasefire, but the conflict continues. There is no peace agreement. War continues in Gaza and in Lebanon, Damascus is still habitated, and terrorists still remain active in Judea and Samaria. Ezekiel 28:24-26 is not yet fulfilled.
DeleteThe fact that there are wildly conflicting reports in Western and Israeli media proves the existance of a global "fake news" generating cabal which serves nothing but its own agenda.
ReplyDeleteSean, it is truly exciting to see these prophesies coming alive in front of our eyes, and knowing we are the very last hour of the church age. It is so easy to just read these stories as "news" and forget the prophetic impact. Pertaining to Jer 49: 35 ( I will break the bow of Elam...), Harbingers Daily has an article today where Bibi said this which certainly sounds like the bow is broken:
ReplyDelete"In a national address delivered Tuesday, Prime Minister Netanyahu stated, “In the 12 days of Operation Rising Lion, we achieved a historic victory. This victory will stand for generations. We removed two immediate existential threats—the threat of destruction by nuclear bombs and the threat of destruction by 20,000 ballistic missiles.” Truly the bow is broken and they are dismayed before their enemies. Praise God! Leo D.
Leo D.,
DeleteAmen!
Israel fought this war for 12 days straight, inflicting great damage on the Twelver's regime and its military. God was with Israel 100%, no aircraft or pilots lost (miracle).
Then America attacked in a period of hours and destroyed Fordo, Natanz and Isfahan nuclear facilities because the nuclear weapons they were preparing were not for Israel but for America. Iran was building ICBM's to carry nukes to our shores. Twelver ICBMs (Inter-Continental Ballistic Missiles) were not for attacking Tel Aviv or Haifa, but Washington and NYC.
The bow has been broken! Praise the LORD!
It appears that the Abraham Accords may well be the "Covenant Among Many" of the 70th Week. Announcements coming soon on expansion.
ReplyDeleteWasn’t the covenant with many supposed to be signed by Israel and the anti-Christ? How does Trump fit in that?
ReplyDeleteZoe
Zoe,
DeleteKing James Version of Daniel 9:27a
"And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week."
Antichrist does not create the covenant, he confirms it for one week (a shabuah - a week of years, or 7 years).
Thanks. I appreciate the clarification.
DeleteZoe
Ten years ago I posted the following on Eschatology Today.
ReplyDelete"With real-world events having once again fixed our gaze and our diligent study upon the prophecy of Jeremiah (Yirme'Yahu) 49:34-39. Through continuing study the Lord has continued to reveal new insights that I feel I would be remiss as a watchman to omit from mentioning.
Many are fearful to the point of hand-wringing angst that should additional sanctions be applied or Iranian nuclear sites be attacked by outside forces one of the first things Iran would do in response would be to militarily shut down the Strait of Hormuz to the flow of global commerce, especially crude oil.
Here's where reading Jeremiah 49:34-39 causes one to look critically at what the Lord has foretold. Specifically, how could the Islamic Republic follow through on its often repeated threat to close down the Strait of Hormuz given what our Omnipotent God has declared through His prophet?
How does Iran shut down this critical waterway when God has destroyed the crown jewel of Iranian military power? How does the uber braggadocian Iranian regime make good on its threats when God has caused them to be chathath (to be shattered, dismayed, broken) before their enemies? Notice carefully that there is more than one enemy in the context here. Through Jeremiah the Lord has promised "I will send the sword after them, til I have consumed them."
The world which has no regard for and no interest in the prophetic declarations of the God of Israel spends its time worrying, and fretting, and fearing that which ought not be. That kind of activity has no place here. Unlike others who worry needlessly and express fear over things they have no control over, Christians empowered by the Holy Spirit are in an automatic "In God We Trust" mode day in and day out."
Does the LORD God use individuals and agencies to accomplish His sovereign will? No question about it, yes, absolutely.
ReplyDeleteClose the Strait of Hormuz? No. Why? Because the Chinese said so, they get 50% of their oil via Hormuz. To which Trump said sure, send Iranian oil to China via Hormuz, they have to rebuild Iran.
But that comes with caveats and conditions to be made public shortly.
