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 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.

Larry Johnson and I focused mostly on Ukraine during yesterday’s Intelligence Roundtable with Judge Napolitano.

END TIMES?: Bob-and-Ray II, March 18

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:

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.”

With Judge this morning: What is the level of trust (if any) between Putin and Trump. What will happen to Ukrainian soldiers still in Kursk on a fool’s errand? Most important: what to expect from Trump-Putin talk this week? Tentative grounds for optimism?

The stakes for 1st amendment on campus could not be higher. Dennis K notes, “Disobedience to authority is the privilege of youth.” It is an IMPERATIVE for us elders! We’ve got a lot less to lose. The choice between watching TV and ACTION is a moral choice. https://kucinichreport.substack.com/p/american-spring-suppression-of-the?publication_id=1441588&post_id=159185413&isFreemail=true&r=6627&triedRedirect=true
