Regarding any radioactive dust blowing around in Iran from Israel's bombing raids there:This is about the prevailing winds in Iran

So, If I'm reading this correctly after consulting Google maps any radiation dislodged by Israel's bombing of Iran is headed West Across Iran and then towards Syria, Jordan,  Iraq, Northern Saudi Arabia and Israel basically. For example, John Wayne died of blowing radioactive dust that lodged in his lungs from a cowboy movie he made downwind from an A-bomb test site years and years later after the bomb went off in the test there. A few radiated particles of dust will kill a person within a few years 

 begin quote from Google AI and Internet:

 

In Iran, the prevailing winds are generally from the west and east. Specifically, there is a strong east-west wind pattern, influenced by the Coriolis effect and regional pressure systems. Additionally, some areas experience northerly winds from Russia and Turkey, as well as southwesterly and northeasterly winds, often referred to as trade winds. The city of Manjil is known for its strong winds due to its location in the Alborz mountain range. 
Elaboration:
The Coriolis effect, caused by the Earth's rotation, tends to create a west-to-east wind pattern in the mid-latitudes, which influences Iran's weather. 
While the general trend is west-east, Iran also experiences winds from other directions. For example, northerly winds from Russia and Turkey, as well as southwesterly and northeasterly winds (trade winds) can be significant in certain regions. 
The city of Manjil is a notable exception, where the funneling effect of the Alborz Mountains creates strong winds, making it the "windy city of Iran". 
The Persian Gulf region, adjacent to Iran, is influenced by the Shamal, a northwesterly wind. 
NOAA's National Ocean Service says documenting wind direction over time is a good way to determine the prevailing winds in a specific location.
