I believe it is nearly impossible to shield a very physically small nuke from being detected by radiation detectors. A larger nuke buried in an oil tanker using the oil around it as a shield would be much less likely to be detected.

Agreed.

Official source: USS Lincoln carrier strike group NOT yet in CENTCOM AOR, and has not crossed the line of demarcation from INDOPACOM to CENTCOM in the Indian Ocean.
This means that the USS Lincoln is NOT yet in the Gulf of Oman within striking distance of Iran.
It will be days, if not a week, before the aircraft carrier strike group will be on station, based on distances involved and speed of strike group from open source information.

Odds on whether a nuclear device is set off?  Or attempted to be set off?

If Iran had a nuke they'd use it on Israel. The Iranian mullahs believe they can bring about the prophesied end times by starting a world war.

Exactly, @DB

Even kind of pisses me off to see all these X accounts claiming "It's tonight!"  "Can't now, because the carrier group isn't in the Oman Straight"

Now, they're "...going to attack from bases in Jordan?

Again, China may not have the technical ability to design and build a suitcase nuke, and if they did, I doubt they would give that tech away to Iran.

Folks toss around the idea of a “suitcase nuke” like any Tom, Dick, or Harry could throw one together if only they had weapons grade fissile material.  It ain’t that easy.
I suggest you look up John Aristotle Phillips. Yes it is exactly that easy and has been since the mid 70's. He was a "C" student who designed a workable nuke roughly the size of a beach ball. He used information he got from the library of Congress for the cost of making copies. Also consider that it doesn't have to create a mushroom cloud to be devastating. Set off a dirty bomb in Tel Aviv late morning to early afternoon and the wind shift will carry radioactive particles inland. Nature will do the work for you.

I'm sure Israel (and many other countries) have radiation detectors that can easily detect something like this. A small weapon like that can't have much shielding and creates a beacon of radiation around it. Obviously possible, but significantly more unlikely it could make its way to Tel Aviv undetected.

It would also seem likely that if Iran had this capability, they would have already used it in the previous exchange of missiles/bombs not long ago.

No, it actually isn't that easy to make a workable nuke.  I have looked it up.  If it was, D.C. would already have been nuked by Hamas, or whatever other terror group got there first.

It is, however, very easy to make a dirty bomb.

I suggest you look up John Aristotle Phillips. Yes it is exactly that easy and has been since the mid 70's. He was a "C" student who designed a workable nuke .  .  .

I remember an episode of Barney Miller along those lines.  It wasn't beachball shaped, but Dietrich immediately recognized it for what it was.
