John Helmer & I focus on the accelerated effort by Trump and Putin to work out agreement that will rein Zelensky in, talk sense into the Europeans, and meet Russia’s core defense interests. Also, will the US attack Iran on false (nuclear weapons) pretext?
Code Pink is Funded by… China?
Here Comes Peter Cottontail, Hopping Down the Tall-Tale Trail. Code Pink is “funded by China”, showing that China, Russia, Iran & North Korea are working more in concert than ever before (sic/sick). Thus spake the chair of Senate Intel Committee yesterday.
No Reason to Attack No-Nuke Iran
Bob and Ray II : Pity Netanyahu & Mike Waltz. There’s nothing in Threat Assessment of US Intelligence Community to justify attack on Iran. Analysts are able to tell it like it is. Iran has no nukes; is not even working to get them; has not been since 2003!
Encouraging Developments in Ukraine
Bob and Ray II: The just-announced US-Russia agreement on Black Sea navigation AND reinstatement of the 30-day ban on attacks on energy infrastructure (starting back on March 18 when Trump and Putin agreed on it). Zelensky still a fly in the ointment.
Intel Community Says Iran Not Building Nukes
Intel community sticks to judgment that “Iran is not building a nuclear weapon.” Supreme Leader Khamenei “has not reauthorized the nuclear weapons program he suspended in 2003.” Also progress reported in US-Russia talks on Red Sea & attacks on energy sites
Trump’s Iran Threat is Mainly Bluster
Trump’s threat vs Iran is mainly bluster. He will back off once he aware this would end détente with Russia; put US troops & sailors at risk; cause global economic collapse and a no-win war. US Intel has not been as bad on Iran as on Iraq – so far.
Intelligence Roundtable Focused on Ukraine
Larry Johnson and I focused mostly on Ukraine during yesterday’s Intelligence Roundtable with Judge Napolitano.
End Times?
END TIMES?: Bob-and-Ray II, March 18
Debating the Level of Putin – Trump Trust
TRUST? Yes, the Russian’s were speaking of trust, even the morning after the Tues tel. summit. Putin’s spokesman: “Putin & Trump trust and understand each other very well; there is a solid will by both presidents to restore ties.” John Helmer and I debate:
Israel, Genocide, and Aaron Bushnell
You ask how Israel learned it could get away with murder? How much time do I have to list the times? Before his “extreme act of protest” Aaron Bushnell asked: “What would I do if my country was committing genocide? The answer: “You’re doing it. Right now.”
