Tom Basile of Newsmax talked with retired Brigadier General Blane Holt about the air campaign against Iran.
“General Holt. All right. So, we’ve heard this now for the last couple of days that the biggest hits are really yet to come. We have heard that the B2 bombers are being moved in position if they have not been moved in position yet,” Basile said.
“What does this mean that the biggest hits are yet to come? First, talk to us about the targets, and then we can discuss what kind of munitions and air resources that we will use to do that,” Basile said.
“Certainly. Thanks for having me. So, what we are looking at is we are getting into the very serious parts of an air campaign that up until now has just gone flawlessly,” Holt said.
“So, we’ve taken out air defenses. We’ve taken out command and control nodes,” Holt said.
“When he says the big iron is about to be layed down, what he is talking to is two primary vectors of targets. One, that nuclear program is not going to see the light of day,” Holt said.
“The other one is setting conditions and battlefield preparation for a coming revolution. There is no reverse gear for this regime, and the revolution will begin and it’s gonna do it with the free Iranian people and likely the Kurds,” Holt said.
“So, now let’s talk about the munitions because you are talking about hitting these nuclear facilities. We are talking underground facilities in many respects. How do we do it?” Basile asked.
Holt explained that part of the strategy would be to attack underground facilities with bunker busters like the US did in June of 2025.
“You’ll see a repeat, maybe even a larger repeat of what we saw in June, which will be bunker busting bombs put at certain depths, designed to reap maximal damage to any type of storage, any type of lab work. We’ll also probably have a lot of clandestine operations on the ground,” Holt said.
“They said they had 462 grams of enriched uranium above 60 percent. We’re gonna want to find that,” Holt said.
“We need to get it off the open market,” Holt continued.
“Is the type of thing what you are saying this next phase that is going to require some measure of special forces work or boots on the ground activity in very limited scope in order to try to find some of this uranium and some of this nuclear material?” Basile asked.
“What I would say is there is the possibility and that is one of the options that we have specialized personnel that can go do that. There are intel assets on the ground that is obvious from different countries, and so I don’t know what the intel picture looks like on the ground, but I can tell you that it’s getting clearer and clearer by the day,” Holt said.
