Following Trumpās attacks on Iran, an admin official tells Rolling Stone, āThe intelligence assessments have not really changedā
After Donald Trumpās decision to strike three Iranian nuclear facilities on Saturday, administration officials are barely bothering to pretend the unprecedented ā and potentially calamitous ā attacks were motivated by new intelligence suggesting Iran was on the brink of having nuclear weapons.
Just months ago, Trumpās Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard testified to Congress, in her opening statement, that the U.S. intel community ācontinues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weaponā and had not reauthorized its nuclear weapons program.
While Trump recently publicly disputed Gabbardās testimony, according to two administration officials with knowledge of internal deliberations in recent weeks, the presidentās decision to strike was not driven by any new U.S. intelligence on Iran.
Maxwellās Dad was an interesting guy if you read up on him. The dude had a lot of enemies via his business dealings and him being a literal spy for MI6/Mossad. Some believe Mossad even assassinated him, but I donāt really believe it.
The fact that the shit had just hit the fan regarding Maxwellās looting of his employeesā pension plans probably had more to do with his suicide.
