Kevin Barrett – American Free Press Sept 29, 2025
Israel’s June 13 attack on Iran, which the US joined on June 22, was framed as a desperate attempt to pre-empt an imminent Iranian nuclear threat. On June 21, Donald Trump insisted that his Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, was mistaken when she testified, in March, that Iran was not building a nuclear weapon.
According to CBS News, a reporter asked Trump: “What intelligence do you have that Iran is building a nuclear weapon? Your intelligence community had said they have no evidence that they are at this point.” Trump responded: “Well then, my intelligence community is wrong. Who in the intelligence community said that?” The reporter answered: “Your director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard.” “She’s wrong,” Trump insisted. Later he told reporters aboard Air Force One: “I don’t care what she said, I think they were very close to having one.”
It was all a big lie. Trump was getting his so-called intelligence from Israel, which was reeling from a wave of Iranian counter-strikes and desperately needed the US to join the war. Shockingly, we now know that Israel never really believed that Iran was building a nuclear bomb.
Recently-leaked Israeli documents show that Israel’s real motives for attacking Iran, and drawing the US into its war, were very different from the “immanent nuclear threat” claim. On September 14, Israeli Channel 13 published leaked transcripts of Netanyahu’s security cabinet meetings just before and during the June war. According to Netanyahu’s own words, and those of his advisors, the real aim of the war was not to pre-empt an imminent Iranian bomb—they knew there was no such threat—but rather to kill Iran’s Supreme Leader and as many other leaders as possible, slaughter top Iranian scientists, inflict maximum damage on Iran’s ballistic missile sites, terrorize the Iranian people, cause a mass exodus from Tehran, and thereby, hopefully, instigate a regime change. The nuclear threat, Netanyahu admitted, was “within a few years,” not days, weeks, or months.
Even Netanyahu’s claim that Iran would build nuclear weapons “within a few years” may have been grossly exaggerated. The leaked transcripts show a senior military figure explaining that the real military rationale for bombing Iran—aside from the attempt to instigate regime change—was “to improve Israel’s strategic balance” and “preventing Tehran from going nuclear in the long term.”
Let that sink in. Israel was trying to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons “in the long term.” What does that mean, in years? I knew the approximate answer, but asked ChatGPT anyway: “When military strategists talk about ‘the long term’ what is the time frame, in years, they’re referring to?”
ChatGPT replied:
“Short term: Months to 1–2 years (immediate operations, contingencies, current deployments).
Medium term: About 3–7 years (building readiness, procurement cycles, training new units, near-future conflicts).
Long term: Typically 10–30 years…”
So to the extent that there was any real prospect of Iran building nuclear weapons, it was in the time frame of ten to thirty years. Yet Netanyahu and Trump risked World War III by massively bombing Iran on a blatantly false pretext—a pretext that makes George W. Bush’s lies about Iraqi weapons of mass destruction seem tame by comparison.
Ironically, the failed Israeli-American attack on Iran may create the very scenario it ostensibly sought to avoid. Iran’s aging Supreme Leader has repeatedly re-issued a religious edict banning nuclear weapons and other WMD. He insists that such weapons are sinful. That’s why strategists have long known—as Tulsi Gabbard said, and a top military advisor to Netanyahu confirmed—that it is highly unlikely that Iran will build a nuke in the foreseeable future…at least it was unlikely, until Netanyahu and Trump kicked the hornet’s nest with their June attack. That attack caused the Iranian people to rise up in fury behind a new generation of hardline leaders, far more militant than the current Supreme Leader, who are open to the argument, now supported by the majority of the Iranian people, that Iran must scrap its prohibition on WMD and build or buy nuclear bombs to deter future attacks.
According to a leading expert, Theodore Postol of MIT, Iran may have already built nuclear weapons in response to the June attack. In an interview with Glenn Diesen headlined “Iran Is Now an Undeclared Nuclear State,” Postol explained that the Israeli-US attack didn’t harm Iran’s now-hidden stockpile of 60% enriched uranium, which can be quickly, easily, and secretly made into bombs.
So the real reason Iran wasn’t building nukes was that it didn’t want them. But now, thanks to Netanyahu and Trump, it probably does.
The June attack wasn’t just a big lie, and a crime. It was a mistake—a blunder of epic proportions.

Ha ha every time Trumpstein opens it’s gob it shows what a fool it is !

‘Unprecedented Savagery’: Israel Advances Bill Allowing Execution of Palestinian Prisoners
“Survivors of captivity clearly told us that every media stunt about the death penalty for terrorists leads to harsher conditions and violence against the hostages,” said the wife of an Israeli abducted by Hamas.

A parliamentary committee in Israel on Sunday advanced legislation to allow the execution of Palestinians convicted of “racially or ideologically motivated” murders of Israelis, drawing condemnation from human rights defenders.
The Knesset National Security Committee voted to approve the first reading of a bill sponsored by Limor Son Har-Melech of the Jewish Power party requiring the execution of any “terrorist convicted of murder motivated by racism or hostility toward a particular public, and under circumstances where the act was committed with the intent to harm the state of Israel and the rebirth of the Jewish people in their homeland.”
Explanatory notes to the bill state that the purpose of the legislation – which would not apply to Israelis who murder Palestinians for similar reasons – is to “nip terrorism in the bud and create a weighty deterrent.”

Whats that old but so obviously true joke?
“How do you know a politician is lying?”
Their lips are moving. It’s accepted and established practice with the added benefit of NO ACCOUNTABILITY.
Asylum seeker who ‘didn’t know trawling underage children online was wrong’ avoids jail
Story by Lotti OBrien • 22hAn asylum seeker has avoided jail after being caught trawling underage children online. Fahad Al Enaze sent sexual messages to an undercover investigator who posed as a teenage girl to catch him out. The 31-year-old from Kuwait continued to ask for photos of the decoy girl, despite the plant saying they were 14. Al Enaze asked explicit questions, including whether she liked sex and claimed he could “teach her everything”.rosecutor Chelsea Kearns said: “He had been sending sexually explicit messages to a 14-year-old decoy child. Al Enaze was arrested and told the officer, ‘I didn’t know I was doing anything wrong’.” The asylum seeker, who lives in a taxpayer-funded migrant hotel in Liverpool, was approached by Widnes Parents Against Predators in September last year.
LOL..
I’m glad Barret had the good sense to check his narrative with chatterbox GT.. better to be sure and get the chumpbot to clean it all up, the fact it’s a rather hollow narrative..a damp squib to be a little more exact is irrelevant and I’ll tell you why..
.. because like most of this sort of narrative creation, it actually sets the stage for the next act of the theatrical production..in the same way that the colonels blabbering on about Russia smashing the anal Satanists with it’s superior tek and 9 million man armies.. does the same..
you see to the hollow men, they don’t actually give a fuck which team you pick..as long as you pick one..because of course they own them both.. and if you don’t pick a side..quite frankly they are fucked..because like the wizard of Oz pulling his knobs on the great machine..toto has called his bluff*
it reinforces the need to buckle up, on the other side and lol..get on with it…while team freedumb, which is the barrats and colonels of this whirled and probably your team too, feeds you hopium and builds the imaginary resistance to the imaginary superpower technocracy..run by Satan and jeff Epshteen..
that way..they all keep busy and the only loser is you..just like always..
* the wizard of oz is of course a dark magic whistleblow..and of course is a plagiarised ‘Tempest’…by Will Shakespeare..the first man to be vaccinated in the UK..wherever the fuck that is..
Of course it was, everyone knew it just by watching his lips move, and along with those stupid generals in front of CNN cameras, going on about what bombs they dropped that day. there are no nuclear weapons, nobody has them, its a fake industry. It’s one more fake war between cousins. That so called Iranian supreme leader is just as much Israeli as his cousin Ben.
