I don't understand why anybody even reads his posts.

I want to thank most of y'all for not quoting AyatollahTom and U_of_TheShah it's made this thread much better to read, especially with the 5-stack from AyatollahTom

It is unfathomable to me that an adult American would have sympathy for Iran.

Haven’t you heard of all the innocent Iranians, innocent Houthis, innocent Palestinians who have so much sympathy for western civilization?

Well hell, you left out Hamas and Hezbollah.

Quote:NEW: Embarrassing moment CNN gets word that Iran has accepted the ceasefire, just seconds after Kaitlan Collins set up narrative casting doubt on Trump.

Oof. This one’s rough.

Watch till the end, you really can’t make this stuff up.

Kaitlan Collins had just finished questioning President Trump’s ceasefire deal between Israel and Iran, suggesting it might fall apart any second or never materialize.

“That obviously still remains to be seen on the implementation side of this, and waiting to see if the firing does stop and if Iran and Israel do both agree to this.”

“Just 24 hours ago, President Trump himself was suggesting a regime change in Iran… so the question is whether or not this still holds for the next few hours.”

Then...mid-thought...Anderson Cooper cut in with breaking news:

“Hey Kaitlan… I’ve just been given word that Iran—according to a diplomat who briefed CNN—has agreed to the ceasefire.”

“That’s incredibly significant… That’s the first indication we have that Iran has agreed to this.”

The timing couldn’t have been worse. Narrative collapsed....live on air.

One thing you can always count on with Trump. He is always humble...

Quote:HUGE: President Trump's strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities were EVEN MORE damaging than "first thought," the IAEA says - NYP

NARRATIVE CRUMBLES in real time from CNN that the strike basically failed!

"At Fordow, the mountain fortress just south of Tehran, officials identified additional strikes at the road leading up to the facility, as well as one of the entrances."

"Meanwhile, at Natanz, the IAEA identified 'two impact holes from the U.S. strikes above the underground halls that had been used for enrichment as well as for storage.'"

So, did we really destroy their nuclear ambitions or are we being gaslighted by our own government yet again?

Hegseth in a press conference today has excoriated the Dem aligned media. It is richly deserved. Their blind hate (among other stories) causes them to miss articles about the outstanding execution of the mission by our armed forces. As I type, General Caine is giving a detailed explanation of our armed forces bravery and skill.

Shame on the Dem's and their lapdog media if they pass on the opportunity to write stories praising our military.

I saw that. Pete just owned their arses. It was masterful.

Yes.
No.
Hegseth and Caine are right now in a presser going through on the ground assessments of the damage from every source imaginable: Iran, Israel, IAEA, etc., plus dozens of damage assessments from satellite photos.

All conclude the same thing. All 3 sites are nothing but rubble. It would now be easier to rebuild from scratch, rather than try to resurrect those 3 sites. That would take "many years."

They even have evidence that every centrifuge was destroyed. Absolutely nothing was left standing.

Think about this. Fordow had 12 30,000 pound guided bombs dropped on it from 13,000 feet, right through the two vent shafts and directly into the main room of the facility.

Here is just one example of the corroboration:

Quote:UPDATE: Now, the CIA DIRECTOR has just come out confirming credible intelligence that Iran's nuclear sites were, indeed, decimated by President Trump's airstrikes.

"CIA can confirm that a body of credible intelligence indicates Iran's Nuclear Program has been severely damaged by the recent, targeted strikes."

"...several key Iranian nuclear facilities were destroyed and would have to be rebuilt over the course of years."

CNN and NYT are in utter SHAMBLES today.

After Tapper spends 10 minutes trying to discredit the damage reports, Israeli intel reports there has been "underground collapse inside the facility" at Fordow.

Looking like fools doesn't even bother them. Fascinating.

From the Babylon Bee...

Quote:HOLY SMOKES! Pete Hegseth just revealed that the "LEAKED" intel report published by CNN and NYT claiming Trump's Iran strikes failed actually say, IN the report, it takes "WEEKS" to have a valid assessment and it was NOT coordinated with the intelligence community!

And the media STILL reported on it like it was fact.

You cannot hate them enough.

Hegseth goes after Fox News' Jennifer Griffin.

Quote:HOLY CRAP! Pete Hegseth just decimated FOX NEWS reporter Jennifer Griffin, calling her "ABOUT THE WORST" in terms of misrepresenting information on the strikes.

His own prior network. Hegseth plays no favorites!

GRIFFIN: "Do you have certainty all the highly enriched uranium was inside the Fordow mountain...none of it was moved?"

HEGSETH: "Jennifer, you've been about the worst - the one who misrepresents the most INTENTIONALLY."

Maybe just splitting hairs, but trump did say what was reported as the conservative Washington Times supports, that they asked a time of when to bomb and he said fine.

Quote:“They said, ’We’re going to shoot them. Is one o’clock OK?’ I said it’s fine. And everybody was emptied off the base so they couldn’t get hurt, except for the gunners,” Mr. trump said at a press conference in the Netherlands, where he is attending a NATO summit.

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/202...tary-base/

That being said, trump didn't say his usual response of something like "I told them no, don't do it, you'll be sorry or met with the full force...blah...blah...blah...."

CONFIRMED. All 3 nuclear sites have been totally destroyed.

"They would have to be rebuilt over the course of years."

Moral of the story: Never believe a Democrat version of any story until at least a week after the event.

Link?

And FTR, the report WAS FROM THE PENTAGON.

My apologies to those here who are rooting for the Iranians.

Apologizing to the voices in your head, again? Seek help.
