Following Trump’s attacks on Iran, an admin official tells Rolling Stone, “The intelligence assessments have not really changed”
After Donald Trump’s decision to strike three Iranian nuclear facilities on Saturday, administration officials are barely bothering to pretend the unprecedented — and potentially calamitous — attacks were motivated by new intelligence suggesting Iran was on the brink of having nuclear weapons.
Just months ago, Trump’s Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard testified to Congress, in her opening statement, that the U.S. intel community “continues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon” and had not reauthorized its nuclear weapons program.
While Trump recently publicly disputed Gabbard’s testimony, according to two administration officials with knowledge of internal deliberations in recent weeks, the president’s decision to strike was not driven by any new U.S. intelligence on Iran.
Israel asked him to do it
“asked”. I’m beginning to think it is a lot more direct than that.
Seemed pretty obvious that Bibi wanted Trump to win and intentionally stalled Gaza ceasefire agreements to make Biden/Harris look bad.
This may have been Trump returning his end of the bargain (or Trump is just a shortsighted and stupid piece of shit).
And biden/harris fell for it. they looked weak and complicit because they’re democrats and that’s their brand.
Well Biden/Harris could have pulled the plug for doing that. Instead they let Netanyahu publicly humiliate them by defying any requests, knowing they would send more weapons as a reward.
They really couldn’t. They were caught between a rock and a hard place.
Which is why Musk was able to dump over $70 million in exactly opposite attack ad messages to both Jewish and Muslim communities inside the key battleground state of Pennsylvania.
If they pulled military aid on Ukraine, one of the most powerful lobbyists in a close election would’ve unleashed their funding, and Republicans too would have labeled Harris and Biden as Antisemitic. Netanyahu would have publicly stated that, “Democrats are putting Israeli citizens at risk from terrorist attack by leaving us defenseless!” In the worst case scenario, Netanyahu – already proven to be a psychopath who ignored obvious intelligence of an impending attack once – could have possibly staged a false flag attack similar to Putin’s past actions, and that would’ve sealed the deal. The public media would’ve labeled Biden/Harris as antisemitic and incompetent.
It’s why they literally had to toe the line between protecting Israel (because the inertia Israel has in our society, sadly), but also seek a peace deal and publicly advocate for a 2-state-solution, as Harris did. The media landscape was not favorable to Democrats, which is why they had limited cards to play.
Bibi’s got kompromat on him, Epstein may have been Mossad
lol Republicans don’t give a shit about anything he’s done or could do. They like Trump and there’s nothing in this world that could change that.
As evidenced by the other golden boy of the Party dropping that exact bomb, and nobody cared
The girl looked just like Ivanka. It would damage his relationship with his favorite child in an unfixable way.
The child he already repeatedly publicly made extremely creepy comments about?
Probably to pull the spotlight off them killing a bunch of people in their beds while they were sleeping
