🇺🇸 A nation of under 10 million people may be pulling the strings in the White House through blackmail. Fmr. U.S. Army Officer David Pyne warns the counterintelligence threat is now rated critical, and the control runs deeper than most realize. "Netanyahu has the ability to blackmail Trump, to do his bidding and to continue to fight this war more or less indefinitely." If this is even half true, it is the biggest national security story no one in power wants to touch. David Pyne 🇺🇸

🇺🇸🇮🇷 IRAN'S NUCLEAR RISK RISING, TRUMP'S DEAL FAILING – w/ National Security Expert David Pyne Has regional deterrence completely collapsed? The White House just got warned that Iran could be days away from a nuclear test, totally shattering old assumptions. National security expert David Pyne is laying out the intel showing Iran probably already has fully operational nuclear warheads. He says this major power shift is forcing Trump to completely change his tone, even as the formal peace talks are falling apart. David Pyne 🇺🇸

🇺🇸 The American security umbrella the Gulf states built their defense around turned out to be the thing drawing the fire. David Pyne, former U.S. Army officer, argues Iran's missile arsenal far exceeded anything U.S. intelligence reported, and the war exposed a truth nobody in Washington wants said out loud: America cannot actually defend its partners from it: "Being a security partner of the United States poses a greater risk to their security than being allies with us, because we just don't have the military capabilities in terms of missile defense to deter and defend against Iranian missile strikes." The Gulf is doing the math, and the answer keeps coming back the same way. David Pyne 🇺🇸

🇺🇸 🇮🇷 Fmr. U.S. Army Officer David T. Pyne just laid it all out. The U.S. would run out of missiles before Iran does, and that's before China starts resupplying them. "They could fight a war against the United States and its allies much longer than we could, because our missiles will be depleted first." Six weeks of major combat. Then we're done. David Pyne 🇺🇸

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The U.S. is desperately trying to prevent Iran from rebuilding its nuclear programme while needing to get it back to the negotiating table to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. The problem is that one of Iran's most important remaining nuclear facilities is believed to be buried too deep for even America's most powerful conventional bunker-buster bombs to reliably destroy. That has led some analysts to discuss a possibility that until recently would have been almost unthinkable: a U.S. tactical nuclear strike. The greatest danger wouldn't necessarily be Iran's immediate retaliation. It would be breaking an almost 80-year taboo on the use of nuclear weapons. That precedent wouldn't stay in the Middle East. Russia has repeatedly threatened nuclear escalation during the war in Ukraine but has so far stopped short of crossing that line. Part of that restraint comes from the enormous political cost of being the first country since 1945 to use a nuclear weapon in war. If the U.S crosses that line first, it's easier for others to follow. It becomes far harder for Washington and its allies to argue that Russia must never do something they have already done themselves. A tactical nuclear strike might solve one military problem in Iran. But it could also make nuclear weapons politically usable again in every future war that involves a rival with nuclear capabilities. Writer: Mhedi

🇺🇸🇮🇱 Hundreds of ceasefire violations in Gaza went unanswered, and the same playbook is now running in Lebanon. David Pyne, former U.S. Army officer, says the pattern is repeating in plain sight, and the frustrating part is that the leverage to stop it has been sitting on the table the entire time. "Netanyahu has been dog walking President Trump. He's basically kept him inside this trap of continuous war." In his view, cutting off security assistance is the one move that would actually change Israeli behavior, and so far there's no sign Washington is willing to reach for it. David Pyne 🇺🇸

🇺🇸🇮🇷 COL. MACGREGOR: “THE DESTRUCTION OF THE IRANIAN STATE… THAT’S THE GOAL” Ret. U.S. Army Colonel, Douglas Macgregor: "Israel has no chance whatsoever of reducing Iran to rubble unless it uses a nuclear weapon. And if it uses a nuclear weapon, it risks having nuclear weapons used against it. The Russians are not going to let Iran die on the vine. We don't want to be drawn into a spiraling conflict that eventually escalates to the point where we and the Russians and the Chinese are at loggerheads with each other. This is a very dangerous situation for The United States."

🇺🇸 The U.S. is down 45% on munitions and a full rebuild would take 3 to 5 years, with no quick fix in sight. Fmr. U.S. Army Officer David T. Pyne says the World War Two manufacturing comparison doesn't hold, because China's defense industrial base is now 5 to 6 times larger than America's. "The longer this war goes on, the worse our loss will be in terms of depletion of our missiles." America isn't the arsenal of democracy anymore. That title has a new owner. David Pyne 🇺🇸

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Washington celebrates a Hormuz deal as the Pentagon drafts a nuclear strategy for the wars America can no longer fight with missiles Everyone's watching the signing ceremony. David Pyne, former Army headquarters staffer and missile defense insider, is watching everything else, and his tour of the board will keep you up tonight. Start with the reported new Pentagon nuclear strategy leaning on tactical nukes for a regional conflict. Pyne spent a decade warning about this exact gap: by his estimate Russia holds FIFTY times America's tactical arsenal, China holds near-monopoly in the Pacific, and America's fallback rides on two submarines on station, carrying a weapon he calls "the most destabilizing nuclear weapon we probably have in our arsenal," because Beijing can't tell a small warhead from a decapitation strike until it's too late. Then his reporting on the room where the war began: which advisers warned against it, who called the five-day regime-change pitch what it was, and the one voice that wanted it. His Ukraine assessment cuts against everything you've been told, from his case that the real story of Kyiv 2022 is nothing like the legend, to the thousand kilometers of border almost nobody guards, to his read, sourced from Russia, on why Putin keeps overruling his own hardliners. And through it all, one credit he genuinely gives Trump: an iron refusal to war directly with nuclear peers. Brandon Weichert David Pyne 🇺🇸

While Israel's leadership faces immense pressure over its operations in Beirut, Washington is desperately trying to prevent a catastrophic regional retaliation from Iran. Former U.S. Army Officer David Pyne notes that while Trump is attempting to put Netanyahu on a leash, our foreign policy remains trapped in a Groundhog Day style doom loop.

JUST IN 🇺🇸🇮🇷: U.S. Vice President on Iran Having Nukes They just do not want Muslim Countries to have nuclear weapons. Saudi Arabia buys billions in Weapons from America, and the U.S. still does not trust them. Vance: "And it's not just them, because if the Iranians get a nuclear weapon, you know who gets a nuclear weapon like the next day? The Saudi Arabians. And then somebody else in the Gulf Arab state. And so you have nuclear proliferation on a global scale. The biggest threat to security in the world is a lot of people having nuclear weapons. So what the president has said is Iran's not going to get a nuclear weapon."

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 Rubio makes the long game argument for the war: "If Iran ever acquires a nuclear weapon, what would stop them from controlling the Strait permanently?" It's the strongest case the administration has. A nuclear-armed Iran with permanent Strait control would make $4.39 gas look like a bargain. The problem is Iran is already controlling the Strait without a nuclear weapon, collecting tolls, seizing ships, and dictating who passes. The war was supposed to prevent that scenario. Instead it created it 77 days ahead of schedule.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The negotiating table is devoid of anyone who knows how to negotiate. Ret. U.S. Army Major General Randy Manner says the administration has surrounded itself with the wrong people at the worst possible moment. "Iran can shut down the strait any time it chooses to, it no longer needs a nuclear weapon because it has something far more powerful and usable than a nuclear weapon." A few hundred thousand dollars in drones may be all it takes to hold the global economy hostage.

If the current blockade drags on past November, a severe electoral backlash could reshape the entire balance of power in Congress. Fmr. U.S. Army officer David Pyne says a major shift in the House and Senate may be the only reality check capable of pushing Trump back toward a positive presidential legacy.

🚨David Pyne: ‘The war on Iran has show the EXTREME NECESSITY for the US to cut off all security assistance to Israel.’ ‘I think that it’s been said that we need to divorce ourselves from Israel. I think that’s true. I think we need to end our alliance with Israel. I think if the US were a bonafide neutral power in the region, with regards to the ongoing Israeli-Iran military disputes, I think we can accomplish a lot more. Iran, much like Russia, is essentially a manufactured enemy… President Trump is principally to blame, not Benjamin Netanyahu, because he is, after all, the President of the United States, one of the top three nuclear superpowers in the world. And he should show a degree of independence from Netanyahu and put America first.

Alastair Crooke: The US🇺🇸 may have signalled that it will resume nuclear weapons testing because Trump misunderstood a Russian missile test as a nuclear test ‘It seems to be based on a misunderstanding. Allegedly, Trump has proposed the idea of nuclear tests in response to Russian nuclear tests. But there hasn’t been a Russian nuclear test. The Burevestnik missile, that was publicised these recent days, like the Oreshnik. But this one has a nuclear power. It has got a propulsion system that is nuclear-based. Its warhead isn’t. There isn’t a nuclear warhead on it. It is a conventional warhead, but it is just instead of having a rocket propulsion, it has a nuclear drive that propels it. And this is why it’s able to stay aloft for a very long time, and in fact traverse the whole globe. But it’s nuclear propulsion, not a nuclear weapon. Did Trump understand that? Or did he just think this was a new nuclear weapon that Russia was testing? He probably didn’t understand that it wasn’t. It was just its propulsion mechanism that is nuclear, but not its warhead. Did Trump understand that? Or did he just think this was a new nuclear weapon that Russia was testing? He probably didn’t understand that it wasn’t. It was just its propulsion mechanism that is nuclear, but not its warhead. Now, whether the Russians have been testing underground before, I doubt it…I’m sure they would have taken every opportunity to say it if they thought they had detected Russian or Chinese underground tests.’ -Alastair Crooke, the former Middle East Advisor to the EU Foreign Policy Chief, on the latest episode of Going Underground FULL INTERVIEW BELOW IN THE REPLIES👇
