Brace Yourselves For War Between Iran and Israel

Alistair Crooke has written that Palantir was used to determine the Iranian nuclear threat. With Lavendar AI used for targeting in Gaza, we already knew that we're living a world where AI is determining strike patterns on innocent civilians. This time it looks like AI and the psychos who were ready to act on its pre-crime algorithms almost hallucinated us into WW3.


The IAEA Board’s ‘Non-Compliance’ Resolution on 12 June 2025 was the planned precursor for Israel’s ‘bolt from the blue’ strike on Iran the next day. Israelis say the plan to go to war with Iran was grounded in ‘the opportunity’ to strike, and not the intelligence that Iran was speeding towards a bomb (that was the peg for war).

The sudden claim of Iran being very close to a bomb (that seemingly jumped out of ‘nowhere’ to leave Americans puzzling how could it happen that – in the blink of eye, we are going to war – was subsequently refuted by IAEA Chief Grossi to CNN on 17 June (but only after the abrupt attack on Iran already had taken place):

We did not have any evidence of a systematic effort [by Iran] to move to a nuclear weapon”, Grossi confirmed on CNN.

This statement drew the following riposte from Iran by its Foreign Ministry Spokesman, Esmaeil Baqaei on 19 June:

“This is too late, Mr. Grossi – you obscured this truth in your absolutely biased report that was instrumentalized by E3/U.S. to craft a resolution with baseless allegation of [Iranian] ‘non-compliance’; the same resolution was then utilized, as a final pretext, by a genocidal warmongering regime to wage a war of aggression on Iran and to launch an unlawful attack on our peaceful nuclear facilities. Do you know how many innocent Iranians have been killed/maimed as a result of this criminal war? You turned IAEA into a tool of convenience for non-NPT members to deprive NPT members of their basic right under Article 4. Any clear conscience?!”.

To which Dr Ali Larijani, Advisor to the Supreme Leader, added:

“When the war ends, we will hold the director of the IAEA, Rafael Grossi, accountable”.

What they are saying:


The Russian Foreign Ministry’s Statement, in relation to the escalation of the Iranian-Israeli conflict –

“It was precisely these “sympathisers” [EU3] who exerted pressure on the leadership of the [IAEA] Agency to prepare a controversial “comprehensive assessment” of Iran’s nuclear programme, the flaws of which were subsequently exploited to push through a biased anti-Iran resolution at the IAEA Board of Governors on 12 June [2025]. This resolution effectively provided a green light to actions by West Jerusalem, leading to tragedy” [i.e. to the sneak attack on the immediate day after, 13 June].

Behind the scenes:


The underpinnings to the 12 June 2025 IAEA Resolution – giving pretext for Israel to strike Iran (and crafted to sway President Trump to dismiss his own Director of National Intelligence’s warnings that there was no evidence of Iran moving towards weaponisation) – reportedly were drawn not from Mossad or other western intelligence services, but from IAEA software. As DD Geo-politics outlines, since 2015, the IAEA has relied on Palantir’s Mosaic platform, a $50-million AI system that sifts through millions of data points – satellite imagery, social media, personnel logs – to predict nuclear threats:

Iran’s stockpile [of enriched uranium] had been growing steadily for months—yet the narrative of an imminent breakthrough surged only after the IAEA’s censure on June 6, 2025. That resolution, adopted 19–3, provided Israel the diplomatic cover it needed. Palantir’s Mosaic platform played a critical role in this pivot. Its data shaped the May 31 report, flagging anomalies at Fordow and Lavisan-Shian, and recycling prior allegations from Turquzabad—despite years-old Iranian denials and sabotageMosaic was conceived originally to identify insurgent activity in Iraq and Afghanistan”.

Its algorithm looks to identify and infer ‘hostile intent’ from indirect indicators – metadata, behavioral patterns, signal traffic – not from confirmed evidence. In other words, it postulates what suspects may be thinking, or planning. On 12 June, Iran leaked documents, which it claimed showed IAEA chief Rafael Grossi sharing Mosaic outputs with Israel. By 2018, Mosaic had processed more than 400 million discrete data objects and had helped impute suspicion to over 60 Iranian sites such as to justify unannounced IAEA inspections of those sites, under the JCPOA. These outputs, though dependent largely on the algorithmic equations, were incorporated into formal IAEA safeguard reports and were widely accepted by UN member states and non-proliferation regimes as credible, evidence-based assessments. Mosaic however is not a passive system. It is trained to infer from its algorithm hostile intent, but when repurposed for nuclear oversight, its equations risk translating simple correlation into malicious intent.

What leading Israeli commentators are saying:

Leading Israeli centre-right commentator, Ben Caspit (Ma’ariv):

“Was Iran’s ‘breakthrough’ to the nuclear weapon actually detected? Probably not. Was the [Supreme] Leader’s “order” to achieve a military nuclear weapon actually given? Probably not. So why did we go to war? Because there was no choice. They were promoting an Israeli annihilation plan and we had no choice… October 7: A cold shower woke up an entire country. All those involved need to understand that anyone who contemplates our destruction will be destroyed. Eyes on the ball and a bullet between the eyes … From now on, every move one of our enemies makes somewhere must be followed by action. Every snake’s head that rises must be beheaded … And there is something else: the rare and one-time historical window of opportunity that suddenly opened before us … All of this made the decision to go to this war the right one … Netanyahu is currently in euphoria”.

Israeli commentator, Nahum Barnea (Yedioth Ahoronot):

“The decision to start a war was all Netanyahu’s. And here he is, deciding and responsible: all the credit is his. Trump gave Israel the green light to start a war, provided that it does not present America as a partner and responsible. The Trump method does not distinguish between Zelensky’s Ukraine and Khamenei’s Iran: humiliation along the way is the guarantee of an agreement in the end”.

Israeli & NY Times commentator, Ronan Bergman (Yedioth Ahoronot):

“The need for the series of assassinations last week first emerged as a thought last September, among senior officials in Unit 8200, the research division in the Intelligence Directorate, the Mossad, and other parts of the system. The trigger was the defeat inflicted by the IDF on Hezbollah, followed by the successful attack on Iran and the destruction of its air defence system in October, followed in December by the collapse of the Assad regime in Damascus and the destruction of its air defence system by the IDF. The sequence of events led many senior Israeli officials to believe that an unprecedented opportunity had arisen, a window of a lifetime, to attack Iran… And so the beheading forum, which decided the fates of scientists thousands of miles away, sat down and decided who would be ranked at level A – the highest importance – and who at levels B, C or D – the lowest”.

Big Picture:


Seemingly, Trump had been convinced by Netanyahu, Ron Dermer and CENTOM’s General Kurilla (Politico reports that Kurilla was instrumental in persuading Trump that DNI Tulsi Gabbard was wrong in her assessment that Iran had ‘no bomb’). Trump sided with the Israelis, asserting that Iran was “very close” to having a bomb, and added that he ‘didn’t care what she [Gabbard] thinks’. Trump did speculate out loud – the day before the sneak 13 June – that an Israeli attack (on Iran) “could speed [up] a deal”. There is little doubt that Syria’s unexpectedly sudden ‘fall’ galvanized the neo-cons to imagine they might quickly repeat the exercise in Iran. This is why, too, so much emphasis is beinglaid on assassinating the Supreme Leader. When Iran did not collapse; when the Iranian system rebooted itself unexpectedly swiftly; and when Iran’s retaliatory strikes on Israel began, the pro-Israeli bloc panicked and exerted tremendous pressure on Trump for the U.S. to enter the war on Israel’s behalf.

This left Trump facing a terrible dilemma – having to choose between the sirens, Scylla and Charybdis – either to alienate his MAGA support base (who voted for him precisely to prevent the U.S. joining another forever war (thus likely causing a GOP loss at the next midterms)), or to alienate his ultra-rich Jewish donors (such as Miriam Adelson, whose money holds sway over Congress, and whose resources are harnessed by the Deep State to pursue mutual interests with the Israeli-Firsters), who would turn against him.

Shades of Iraq and the Colin Powell role…
 
Bible, Quran, and Oil.

Nations currently at war, on both sides, warn each other of upcoming attacks as if it were a theater performance, announcing the call-outs before the performance begins.

Or perhaps it's humane consideration, something new, so they can protect themselves by warning potential victims. This kind of warning wasn't given before.

This possible humanitarian sense in times of war is interesting.
 
One clear achievement for the Deep State has been the rift inside Maga movement that this war contributed. And worst of all, Trump himself personally participated by attacking sane anti-war voices like Tucker and Massie. This whole situation just highlights the influence and control Zionists have over him. Now the division has become major weakness that can be exploited as time goes by.
 
I'm starting to think that maybe Trump is in the first stages of elderly dementia. He's trying to play his usual '5D chess', the 'art of the deal', as he has quite successfully (debatable) done for decades, but now he's clearly lost his touch. And if that is the case, the worst thing is that he's probably not aware of this deterioration – he's in Dunning-Kruger mode thinking that he's 'The One'! And maybe that's why he's postings on SM has become more stupid, and more 'big and beautiful' (using caps and 'big words'). And, if he has an onset of dementia, it would also be easier to manipulate and influence him in various ways. Not good!
He always clearly had some strain or traits of NPD, but yes it has recently gotten dramatic. It does resemble a drug-induced psychosis, and there is no more powerful drug than being "leader of the free world" with unchecked power and infinite adulation. The MAGA people surrounding him seem like mostly weak yes-men, whether they're genuinely just low IQ true believers or greasy, two-faced psychos. He very rarely shares a physical space with a man whom he cannot psychologically dominate.

On top of that, I'm sure the PTB are using their "six ways from Sunday" to manipulate him, including beaming etc.

In the end we must judge him by his fruits, and taking into consideration just how dire the situation was before he came back. War with Iran, China etc. was already guaranteed. Collapse of the west was already guaranteed.
 
I think this is probably a back-channel agreed retaliation with most of the US bases having been evacuated beforehand. But I can't rule out that unscripted Iranian elements may appear, not to mention the ever anticipated false flags. Markets may well get the jitters anyway.
I think the same. Why would they target the biggest US base? If you target the biggest, you know it has the most weapons, which means it has many more air defense weapons.
If they want to retaliate and do real damage, at least for me, it would be logical to attack the weakest US base and saturate its air defense with missiles.

For now, it all appears to be running a script.

The thing is that that likely was always taking place to one extent or the other behind the scenes especially after WW2. The difference being that this becomes clearer now publicly. I don’t think that this has to mean that “it is all just a farce“ or that “they are all in on it“ or “they are evil“. If we are honest about it we can also say that such background dealings seem nowadays to often involve making crises, overall, actually a lot less bloody than in the past (but not necessarily less painful, spiritually speaking, aka suffering!), not necessarily meaning that this is actually desired by some of those players, just that this seems to be a natural result of it. And I also think there is a second major difference nowadays, even though some countries probably still abide by that backroom dealings: some seem to also be pushing for an improvement or even reevaluation of what is going on and somewhat go against the script of “the script“. Russia, being first and foremost in that list. Nukes are probably one of the key reasons why it developed in such ways after WW2.

The few missiles used in the attack and their relative ease of interception also indicate this.
 
The latest from Dugin's substack :


Im not sure if we are heading to full blown nuclear war - but it is an interesting read. Some excerpts below :

"Thus came the cunning decision: instead of opposing the conservative turn, the rise of nationalism and populism, and the strengthening of multipolarity, they would harness these forces for their own purposes. Establishing a world government was postponed and replaced with an interim project: the “clash of civilizations.” For this, the rise to power of the nationalist Trump was allowed. The symbol of this became the “Bellamy salute,” performed twice – first by Elon Musk, then by Steve Bannon and others at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), attended by U.S. Vice President JD Vance. Now, nationalism became the face of America. This seemed to directly oppose globalist internationalism. But if one considers the long-term goal of igniting nuclear war, it was the fastest path to results.

Another ultra-nationalist regime – Netanyahu’s government in Israel – became a key agent in fueling this “clash of civilizations.” Israel’s wartime conduct towards Palestinians – the mass genocide of Gaza’s civilians – eerily mirrors regimes that once made Jews their victims during World War Two. Netanyahu embodies Israel’s version of the Bellamy salute. The strikes on Lebanon and now the provocation of war with Iran align perfectly with this role. Israel’s attacks on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure amount to the activation of a dirty bomb – that is, the beginning of a nuclear conflict. Trump has now joined in.

Yet that is not all. Ukraine, in its current state, is another tool of the globalists. There, neo-Nazism flourishes in overt form; the rehabilitation of Nazi criminals and persecution based on language and religion have become daily practice. And again, the nuclear factor: constant shelling of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, attempts to strike the Kursk NPP, and finally, attacks on Russia’s nuclear triad. This is all undoubtedly not just approved by the globalists, but executed under their direct control and orders.

..........
This is where the significance of the Bellamy salute becomes clear. Neither socialism nor liberalism inspires anyone anymore. These are ideological phantom pains from a past that is irretrievably gone. They have become kitsch and rotten grotesques. Once, they stirred enthusiasm; now, they only evoke disgust. Today, the energy lies with populism and, at times, nationalism – the conservative revolution.

Previously, liberals crushed any hint of patriotism and ridiculed conservatives. Now, they have changed tactics. They first practiced on Ukrainian neo-Nazism and, one must admit, with impressive results: a fractured country with a bewildered population and oligarchic infighting was transformed into a cohesive war machine, driven by hatred and rage. A society in such a state – embracing the Bellamy salute and torchlit marches – is capable of killing everything around it, even itself. Hence the dirty bombs, fierce resistance to the Russian army, and unending terrorist attacks.

Seeing its effectiveness, the globalists likely decided not to kill Trump prematurely. Now, they are using him for the same goals – they have, in fact, already unleashed World War Three. Unlike exhausted communism and liberalism, nationalism has retained much of its energy. And the louder everyone repeats “never again,” the closer we draw to the “return of the barbarians” – from MAGA to radical Islam, from the Kiev regime to ultra-right Zionism with Yitzhak Shapira’s The King’s Torah, from India’s Hindutva to the Brown Berets of the Latino uprising in California and Texas, from BLM and Critical Race Theory to the new Euro-militarism of Merz, Macron, and Starmer. Everyone knows who Giorgia Meloni is – she, too, is a Bellamy salute. What the globalists call our country in the West need not be repeated. You can guess.

Thus, the globalists have changed their strategy – not to resist the rise of nationalism and multipolarity, but to embrace them, provided it leads to a war of all against all – preferably nuclear or escalating into it. Then, according to their plan, a world government will be established, the Singularity will occur, and the Christian tradition’s “kingdom of the Antichrist” will arrive. That this nuclear conflict is now igniting in the Holy Land – and that it was triggered by Israeli politicians who believe they are paving the way for the coming of the Moshiach, with Shiites answering with hope in the appearance of the Hidden Imam, the Mahdi, who is destined to defeat the Dajjal – this cannot be coincidence."
 
Found this tweet, thought it was relevant:


An Iranian man left this comment on my YouTube channel. It's the single best explanation I've ever heard on the future of #Iran
As an Iranian, I can tell you the situation is no longer just political—it's existential. We are trapped between two collapsing structures: one internal, one external. On one hand, we face a deeply dysfunctional government, led by the Supreme Leader and the Islamic Republic’s unelected institutions.

Decades of economic mismanagement, suppression of dissent, and brutal ideological control have alienated multiple generations. No one believes in reform anymore—because every attempt has either been co-opted or crushed.

But here's the paradox: We are also terrified of regime collapse—because we've watched the aftermath of Western intervention in countries like Iraq, Libya, Syria, and Afghanistan.

Each was promised freedom; each descended into chaos, civil war, or foreign occupation. So no, we don't trust the U.S. or Israel. Not because we support our regime—but because we know how imperial powers treat ‘liberated’ nations in the Middle East.

Freedom, in their language, often means vacuum, fire, and permanent instability. Right now, many Iranians live with three truths at once: The Islamic Republic is morally and politically bankrupt. The alternatives offered by foreign actors are not liberation—they’re collapse. A bad government is survivable. No government is not.

We are not silent because we agree. We are cautious because we’ve learned—too well—what happens when superpowers decide to "help." In a sentence: Iran is a nation held hostage by its own regime, but haunted by the fate of its neighbors. We are stuck in a house we hate, surrounded by fires we fear more.
