Introduction \u2013 May 15, 2026<\/strong><\/h1>\n

As President Trump weighs up whether to resume strikes on Iran it\u2019s clear that the man is dangerously out of touch with the situation in Iran or he\u2019s been badly, and maybe even treacherously misinformed. Either way it\u2019s a hazardous combination that could soon see a flare-up of fighting in the Middle East.<\/p>\n

First of all Trump seems to be under the misapprehension that Iran\u2019s missile capability has been all but destroyed. Or so he claims.<\/p>\n

We can only conclude that either the president has been misinformed by a trusted but treacherous aide, or he’s lying and by doing so he\u2019s trying to prepare the way for more strikes on Iran:<\/p>\n

Trump says Iran missile launchers \u2018largely gone\u2019<\/strong><\/h1>\n

News.az \u2013 May 15, 2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

Donald Trump has claimed that Iran\u2019s missile launchers have been \u201clargely gone,\u201d dismissing reports suggesting that a significant portion of Iran\u2019s launch capability remains intact as \u201cfake news.\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n

Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Donald Trump said recent military actions had severely weakened Iran\u2019s missile infrastructure, using a metaphor to describe the intensity of the strikes, News.Az<\/a> reports, citing Al Jazeera<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were hitting them like pi\u00f1atas,\u201d he told reporters, adding that \u201cthe missile launchers are largely gone.\u201d<\/p>\n

Continues \u2026<\/a><\/p>\n

This is NOT what U.S. Intelligence is saying. In fact, various U.S. intelligence agencies are warning Trump that large parts of Iran\u2019s missile capability still remain largely intact.<\/p>\n

U.S. Intel. Confirms Iran Has Rapidly Restored Missile Arsenal and 90 Percent of Missile Bases<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Military Watch Magazine \u2013 May 13, 2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

United States intelligence sources speaking to The New York Times <\/em>have confirmed that Iran has retained approximately 70 percent of its missile arsenal, and has successfully restored operational access to 30 out of 33 missile facilities along the Strait of Hormuz, or 91 percent, and approximately 90% of underground storage facilities and launch pads. New intelligence data indicates that Washington has likely significant overestimated the extent of the damage caused to the Iranian missile arsenal by U.S.-led attacks that were launched from February 28, and underestimated Iran’s ability to quickly restore its military facilities. Alongside the destruction of critical civilian infrastructure and the elimination of the country\u2019s political leadership, the destruction of Iran\u2019s missile arsenals was a leading priority for U.S. forces during its attacks on the country.<\/p>\n

The Iranian Armed Forces has relied heavily on ballistic and cruise missiles to serve as a strategic deterrent against Western attacks, which have provided an asymmetric means of countering vast quantities of U.S. and allied air and missile power valued at hundreds of billions of dollars arrayed against Iranian forces in the Middle East. Iranian forces have relied heavily on North Korean support not only to develop its missile arsenal, which has been modernised and expanded considerably for over four decades, but also to provide support in constructing extensive underground fortifications deep underground. These multi-storey missile bases are reportedly connected by rail hundreds of metres underground, allowing for the redeployment of forces and missile assets relatively safe from U.S. or allied attacks.<\/p>\n

Conclusion \u2013 May 15, 2026<\/strong><\/h1>\n

\"\"<\/a>

An Iranian underground missile storage facility. Iran has a number of such facilities, buried beneath mountains and linked by underground railways<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

So where is Trump getting the idea that Iran\u2019s missile capability is largely gone when that is NOT what U.S intelligence is saying?<\/p>\n

We can only assume that one or more of the Zionist lackeys he has surrounded himself with are supplying him with this misinformation.<\/p>\n

Whoever it is, Trump is either being treacherously misinformed or worse; he\u2019s colluding in a treacherous plot to get America into a wider war with Iran \u2013 on Israel\u2019s behalf.<\/p>\n

If that happens the results could be potentially catastrophic. Impacting not only America, Israel and Iran but also the world as a whole.<\/p>\n

In the final analysis this could all end in massive population reduction, which is exactly what the elite want. They plan to accomplish this either directly through wars or indirectly through the disruption of trade and agricultural productivity and the food shortages and starvation that would follow<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

To ensure this happens our fake leaders have been installed \u2013 Starmer, Macron, Trump etc. \u2013 to lead us to this bloody conclusion.<\/p>\n

However, none of this is foreordained. Increasingly, people are starting to wake up and question what they are told by the mainstream media and politicians. So a final, bloody conclusion of war and mass starvation need not be an inevitable outcome.<\/p>\n

To ensure that this doesn\u2019t become our future we need to start by holding the mainstream media and our supposed \u2018leaders\u2019 to account. Ed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
