In memoranda to you over the past year and a half we have pointed out that (1) Iran’s current support for international terrorism is far short of what it was decades ago; and (2) that you are being played by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s claims about Iran’ they are based on intelligence exposed as fraudulent several years ago.
Tellingly, Netanyahu waited for your new national security adviser to be in place for three weeks before performing his April 30 slide show alleging that Iran has a covert nuclear weapons program.
On the chance that our analysis of Netanyahu’s show-and-tell failed to reach you, please know that the Israeli prime minister was recycling information from proven forgeries, which we reported in a Memorandum to you early last spring
... snip ...
If our Memorandum of May 7 fell through some cracks in the West Wing, here are its main findings:
The evidence displayed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on April 30 in what he called his “Iranian atomic archive” showed blatant signs of fabrication.
That evidence is linked to documents presented by the Bush Administration more than a decade earlier as “proof” of a covert Iran nuclear weapons program.
Those documents were clearly fabricated, as well.
In our May 7, 2018 Memorandum we also asserted: “We can prove that the actual documents originally came not from Iran but from Israel. Moreover, the documents were never authenticated by the CIA or the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).”
Allah will protect them. If they get blown up, its his fault, or he is make believe

I worked in the intelligence field while in the Army. Still does not make anything they claim any more valid than the average person. The facts, we have not declared war, nor have we taken any active steps toward any action towards Iran.
Any sort of aggression would be immediately known as the build up for such action would be very noticeable. It took a year build up for the first war against Iraq and the whole world including Iraq knew we were coming.
There has been no declaration of war which Congress must approve and pass nor has the President issued any EO in regards to military action against Iran.
There has not even been serious rhetoric between the two leaders, and again as fact, the two have expressed interest in talks. The only thing that could trigger thoughts of a strike was the Australian report that U.S. officials for a list of targets.
I believe it is routine to have intelligence ready to go in case of the worst. I also believe we would ask Israel before Australia since they have way more than Australia but, we would certainly ask but it certainly does not mean war is any closer than last year or the year before. Utter rubbish

No more extremes than past administrations who actually authored EO's for military action. Past admins have drawn red lines. The leaders of Iran have for decades shouted death to America.
So this President speaks louder but the usual rhetoric really nothing new. This President has reached out to talk when others have not, like NK and Iran.
Iran was asking for talks but now have turned 180 and want conditions before talks. Iran is having issues within, as sanctions are biting. Water shortages, people tired of harsh religious laws, only a matter of time before they do their own regime change

VIPS has written an excellent letter to President Trump regarding the plans to attack Iran.
