Contributing sentiments towards policy:

46% : Now, with Washington and Israel convinced that Iran is rebuilding elements of its nuclear programme inside Pickaxe Mountain, and Tehran continuing to restrict international access, the underground complex has become one of the most closely watched sites in the Middle East-and a potential focus of any future US military campaign.
44% : Does Pickaxe Mountain Matter? The renewed focus on Pickaxe Mountain comes after the United States and Israel launched strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities at Natanz, Fordow and Isfahan during the 12-day conflict last year under "Operation Midnight Hammer.
38% : The UN nuclear watchdog had said that it has not been allowed to inspect Pickaxe Mountain despite growing intelligence assessments.
