Former CIA Intelligence analyst Larry Johnson had been informed that shortly before this interview took place, President Trump had been ‘advised’ that Iran has “almost run out of missiles”. If true then Trump has been badly, even treacherously, misinformed and he is leading the U.S. into a potentially catastrophic conflict
Of course, the Iranians are not going to comply with Trump’s demands. Especially when Trump lured them into dropping their guard with the prospect of a settlement at the sixth round of negotiations with the U.S. on June 15. That gave Israel time to launch its treacherous strike
The USS Nimitz carrier group is en-route to the Middle East where it will join the USS Carl Vinson strike group. We only hope that the armada is meant to persuade Iran to ease its campaign against Israel. If, however, U.S. forces are gathering in readiness to strike Iran we could be in a lot of trouble. As this will open the way for Russia to intervene on Iran’s behalf
“Israel’s position grows weaker by the day while Iran grows stronger”, says Col. Douglas Macgregor. That’s why Netanyahu desperately wants U.S. intervention to “rescue” the Zionist regime from the mess it got itself into. Will Trump oblige?

It’s a little late now but Netanyahu’s “National Security” Advisor, Tzachi Hanegbi, says military force alone can’t destroy Iran’s missile program.
Chinese military cargo planes have been flying to Tehran with their transponders switched off. That means the flights are supposed to be secret, raising the question: what weapons are they delivering?
Israel’s actions are waking the world up to its real nature, says Prof. Marandi. In addition, he also offers some interesting insights into Israeli claims of having taken out Iranian missile launchers
Deep Dive Defense presents an analysis of recent Israeli strikes on Iran, Tehran’s response and the likely outcome
A key architect of Iran’s nuclear program and former head of the Atomic Energy Organisation, Fereidoun Abbasi reveals in his last interview that the Israelis may have been too late. He had already passed on his know-how to a new upcoming generation of Iranian scientists and technicians
Trump’s decision to allow Israel to attack Iran is the worst miscalculation a US president has made since George W Bush invaded Iraq. He has provided Iran with the biggest incentive possible to acquire nuclear weapons. Its very survival may depend on it
Iran fights back, destroying Israel’s Haifa oil refinery as Netanyahu calls on Trump to join in the fight. Although the U.S. is supporting Israel with intelligence and logistics it has thus far avoided direct involvement. That could change if Iran starts to get the upper hand
