This is true but I suspect that attacks on remote, secret uranium enrichment facilities will not lead to particularly strong public outrage unless the Iranian government wants to stir up that outrage.

Imagine if Iran bombed remote, secret military bases on US soil and then bragged about it.

Do you think that there wouldn't be public outrage, even if the US government tried to cover it up?

It isn't about the nature of the target. It's being targeted that raises hackles.

By that point in the war, Japan effectively had no military-industrial capability.

That's not even close to true. Being horrifically outmatched is not the same as having no capacity.
