Didn’t a hacker destroy one facility a while back just over reving the equipment?

Stuxnet virus... brilliant operation. IIRC used a printer shipped from France to introduce a virus into the centrifuges that caused them to destroy themselves.

A very creative op!

even a dirty bomb could have large and long term consequences, and shooting it down above tel aviv isn't necessarily going to make it ineffective.

Yeah... had not thought of that.

If you have access to enough radioactive material... (and they do) that would probably be a pretty expedient and simple thing to pull off.

Let's hope they don't try it! Because that would be really, really bad at every level.

But in the throes of disaster, governments do stupid things. Especially crazy theocratic ones that regard a return to the 9th Century as a net positive.

More likely it's too dangerous to move civilian aircraft in the airspace right now.

Last thing we need is a planeload of US Citizens winged by an Iranian missile.... Lindsey Graham would be seen fapping on National TV over that one...

If I were an American in Israel right now, I'd be much happier in a bunker or out on some Kibbutz watching the show through binoculars.

Fights can fly in and foreigners can fly out , its purely to keep israelis inside.
