YouTube Description
as posted by the channelEx-CIA spy Andrew Bustamante, nuclear war expert Annie Jacobsen, and Iran expert Benjamin Radd break down the real motivations behind Trump's strikes on Iran and why the official explanation does not match the intelligence community's own reports. Andrew reveals that three separate US government assessments said Iran was not the priority threat, and that the ODNI concluded less than a year ago that Iran was unlikely to pursue nuclear weapons.
They explain how the CIA has operated as the president's hidden hand since World War II, why Iran has been a black box for American intelligence since 1979, and how decades of failed US and UK intervention created the very regime that was just targeted. Annie warns that America has set a dangerous precedent by assassinating a head of state, and that the domino effect of this decision makes Americans less safe now than they were before the strikes.
