🚨 US ATTACKS IRAN DESPITE CLAIMS NUCLEAR PROGRAM "OBLITERATED"
The White House repeatedly insisted June 2025 strikes "wiped out" Iran's nuclear program.
Trump in State of the Union: "We wiped it out and they want to start all over again."
Press secretary Karoline Leavitt: The attack "did, in fact, obliterate Iran's nuclear facilities."
Yet here we are. US and Israel launching extensive strikes again.
KEY
If the program was truly destroyed, why are we back at war?
Either the initial claims were overstated, or Iran reconstituted faster than expected.
Either way, markets are now pricing in prolonged conflict.
Russia's response:
Lavrov just condemned "unprovoked armed attack" by US and Israel in call with Iranian minister.
Urges immediate halt to strikes.
