🇺🇸🇮🇷 The first nuclear use since 1945 could be sold as a harmless demonstration shot on an empty Iranian mountain... Pickaxe Mountain sits on the reported target list, buried too deep for conventional bombs, and a scenario circulating among military analysts goes like this: a nuclear bunker buster, framed... as an underground demonstration against a remote site not yet fully operational, few casualties, maximum message. Karen Kwiatkowski, a retired Air Force lieutenant colonel, was asked whether that pitch could actually land. Her answer was the alarming part: yes, easily, because it arrives dressed as restraint, no treaties bind Washington anymore, and the word demonstration does all the reassuring. What follows, in her read, is the part nobody prices. Iran answers the unthinkable with resolve, treating the broken taboo as final proof of who it faces, and its nuclear armed friends, North Korea among them, need only hand over a device or two. Her rendering of Tehran's reply was ice cold: "Let us show you who we are." Her larger warning frames the week. Iran's campaign has run like a textbook, radars first, then logistics, then maintenance, pushing America farther out with every strike. A power squeezed that methodically starts reaching for shortcuts, and the demonstration shot is the shortcut she fears most. Karen Kwiatkowski Brandon Weichertshow more

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Iran built a mountain to survive a nuclear bomb... It reportedly just made the strike list. Axios is reporting a full cabinet session in the Situation Room to plan a far bigger air campaign, with Trump warning that "next week comes the power plant, next week comes the bridges." Per the report, one option on that table is Pickaxe Mountain, an enrichment site buried so deep that an adviser to Iran's parliament speaker calls it the most fortified nuclear facility on earth. The same adviser warned the region "will turn to hell" if it is touched. Former CIA analyst Larry Johnson took the threat seriously and the target less so. In his assessment, Iran's deep sites were engineered to ride out far worse than conventional bombing: "A nuclear bomb is not going to take them out." A strike on Pickaxe, by that logic, buys pure escalation with nothing to show for it. He also revisited the "obliterated" claim from last June. The DIA assessed otherwise at the time, and its director was removed months later. Larry's reading of the lesson: the narrative outranks the intelligence. The box, as he sees it: the one target guaranteed to unleash everything is the one target the bombs cannot crack. SonofNewAmericanRevolution

🇺🇸🇮🇷 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

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The Pentagon is literally emailing its analysts begging for ideas as the deal being signed over Hormuz doesn't even include America Read that CNN scoop again. "We are looking for new creative and unconventional ways to pressure and punish Iran." That's a real email from CENTCOM's intelligence branch, sent to a broad group of analysts days before the weekend attack got called off. A trillion-dollar war machine, reduced to opening the suggestion box. Karen Kwiatkowski spent years inside that Pentagon, and she delivers the verdict nobody in Washington will say: the deal everyone's celebrating is between Iran and Oman. Washington isn't a party to it: "We're just going to be a customer." Sit with that one for a second. Then she takes you inside the machine. Why the colonels who see disaster coming stay silent, and what mortgages and pension math have to do with it. Why this war was lost in its first week. Her three brutal readings of the admiral who publicly asked whether to defend America or Israel. And the one honest off-ramp left: declare victory, fire the generals, and leave.

🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iran moves to ban American and Israeli ships from Hormuz outright as its parliament turns the strait into an Iranian lake Read what's in this bill. American and Israeli vessels banned from the strait completely. Inspection rights over anything suspicious, reaching across the entire waterway. No passage for any country that damaged Iran until compensation is paid, and a 5 percent toll on everyone else. That's a claim to the whole strait as sovereign Iranian space. Karen Kwiatkowski, 20 years Air Force and a Pentagon insider who saw the machine from within, explains why Tehran can write demands like these: "They own the place and they don't want us to come back." The American bases that anchored the Gulf for decades sit unusable, and she walks through exactly why. Her sharpest insight flips the whole regime-change story on its head: the Iranian street is pushing its parliament to go HARDER, not softer. Then the part that should keep you up at night, her warning about the new nuclear doctrine being drafted in Washington, why she believes the reassurances prove the danger, and the Cold War treaty history that left America decades behind in exactly the weapons it now wants to lean on. A president says the shelves are full. The reporting says otherwise. Iran is acting on the reporting. Karen Kwiatkowski Brandon Weichert

JUST IN: 🇺🇸🇮🇷 U.S. Studying Nuclear Strike On Iran’s Pickaxe Mountain Facility, B61-11 Could Be An Option An Israeli government source claims Washington has studied using one or two tactical nuclear weapons against Iran’s deeply buried Atomic Energy Organization facility at Pickaxe Mountain. The reported studies allegedly began in early April, examining whether a nuclear weapon could destroy the hardened underground site. If the U.S. pursued such an option, the B61-11 earth penetrating nuclear bomb could potentially be considered because it was designed for hardened underground targets. No final decision has reportedly been made, and there is no public confirmation that the B61-11 is being considered. If true, this would represent an extraordinary escalation in the U.S. Iran confrontation. The claim comes from an anonymous Israeli government source and has not been independently verified.

🚨 IRAN’S URANIUM STOCKPILE MAY NOW BE HIDDEN INSIDE “PICKAXE MOUNTAIN” U.S. intelligence sources believe Iran has moved its remaining enriched uranium stockpile to a heavily fortified underground complex known as “Pickaxe Mountain.” The site is believed to be deeply buried inside a mountain near Iran’s nuclear infrastructure, with tunnels reinforced to withstand even the most powerful conventional bunker-buster weapons. If the reports are accurate, it would mean Tehran has placed its most sensitive nuclear material inside one of the hardest targets on Earth to destroy. Satellite imagery over recent years has shown massive tunnel entrances, expanding underground chambers, and heavy security, suggesting the site was designed specifically to protect critical nuclear assets. For military planners, the implications are serious. Facilities like this are built for one purpose: to survive a strike and preserve a nuclear program even if everything above ground is destroyed. If Iran’s uranium has indeed been moved there, the strategic equation around its nuclear capability may have just changed dramatically.

🇮🇷🇺🇸 An IRGC general says beating America was easier than Tehran expected, and the reasons his boast lands were visible for years Karen Kwiatkowski joined as Middle East Spectator carried Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Naqdi crediting God for victory, then adding: "we did not think it would be this easy" Set the boast aside and the conversation's diagnosis is uncomfortable because none of it is new. A budget eight times the next country's never meant effectiveness, it meant an acquisition bureaucracy that eats money. America looked like a power with staying power because it sat in Iraq and Afghanistan for twenty years, and nobody noticed how fragile the logistics underneath were until sailors spent 200 days at sea on thin rations. The generals, the discussion suggests, carry some of this, having oversold what the force could do to the men above them. But the deepest reason has nothing to do with Iran. A war that Congress never declared is a war the country never committed to, and seventy percent of Americans oppose it. Karen Kwiatkowski Brandon Weichert

🇺🇸🇮🇷 America's draft agency wants to war-game conscription scenarios just as the Iran war spreads toward Ukraine and the Pacific The report sits in plain sight: the Selective Service System is seeking a "Readiness Simulation" to war-game the machinery of a draft, testing selection, notification and processing under emergency conditions, months before automatic registration of American men 18 to 26 begins in December. No draft has been ordered. Agencies stress-test the things they think they might need. Karen Kwiatkowski, retired Air Force lieutenant colonel, reads it against this week's map: Iranian missiles into Jordan, Ukrainian strikes on Iranian ships in the Caspian, a US carrier group steaming into the South China Sea while munitions run thin everywhere. Her verdict on the shape of things: "It looks like World War I, the beginnings." Alliances forming, borders going fluid, separate wars finding each other. And her warning lands on the draft pool itself. Roughly 70 PERCENT of Americans oppose this war by the polling she cites, and the generation that would be called has no appetite for a fight whose objective nobody in Washington can state. Nobody in 1914 knew it was 1914 until it was over. Karen Kwiatkowski Brandon Weichert

🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iran's $48 billion military is OUTLASTING America's trillion dollar war machine, and every ally Washington promised to protect is watching it happen... Tehran's vow to wait out this presidency reads like negotiating posture. Karen Kwiatkowski, the retired Air Force lieutenant colonel who spent years inside the Pentagon, hears something aimed at a different audience entirely: Riyadh, Abu Dhabi, Amman. The protector they banked their security on didn't defend them when the missiles flew, and after this war, can't. Her verdict: "Uncle Sam has left the building." That's the war aim nobody prices in. Beyond surviving and pushing American forces out, Iran wanted the region's security architecture rebuilt without Washington in the room. Gulf capitals now negotiate as equals, the Saudi channel to Tehran ran through Beijing before a single bomb fell, and the Mecca pact is the symptom, not the cause. Her hardest point is the ledger. A country of 93 million with a $48 billion military, by her count, is outlasting a trillion-dollar one. And the MOU Trump signed looks better with every month it recedes, because the price of waiting only climbs. First fees, now this. One hopeful note: Brandon recalls Trump telling Fox back in 2004 that he'd end the Iraq war by simply bringing the troops home to a victory parade. This week's reporting suggests that instinct may finally get its moment. Karen Kwiatkowski Brandon Weichert

🇮🇱🇮🇷🇺🇸 Israel is preparing to go to war with Iran alone, and America has run out of the cards to stop it... Fmr. U.S. Navy intel officer Malcolm Nance lays out the military reality that has zero diplomatic cushion: America has reached the absolute limits of both air and sea power against Iran, the naval campaign was an afterthought from Day 1, and the political will to absorb casualties does not exist for this White House. "There was NEVER a strategy in this war. Trump thought this war was going to last a matter of days..." Iran's demands, meanwhile, are maximalist: fees 500x higher than any other strait, reparations for two wars, all sanctions lifted, U.S. forces out of the region, and Gaza. Nance says that's exactly what a side that knows it has America over a barrel looks like. As far as Israel is concerned, the diesel subs are out of port, Netanyahu personally visited the Dimona nuclear facility, and Iran already fired ballistic missiles at villages near Dimona as a DIRECT warning. ANY Israeli nuclear strike would trigger the largest global disarmament campaign in history... and make Israel a permanent pariah, if it isn't already one. Netanyahu is checking whether the keys still work... That should concern all of us. As always, great convo with Malcolm Nance

Lue Elizondo: “If these UFO's land on the White House lawn tomorrow, do I put my hand out in friendship, or do I point an M16 to its head?” 👽🛸 In a recent discussion the former Pentagon official confirmed that OPLAN Interloper was a real operational plan developed under AATIP. It was designed as a classic honeypot, creating an irresistible nuclear footprint with carrier strike groups and other nuclear assets because UAP show a consistent interest in nuclear equities and large bodies of water. Elizondo noted the two major commonalities observed globally are nuclear technology and water. He added he would not be surprised if similar plans have already been executed. On the general’s question he replied that it is not a binary choice. Treating it as either-or could doom us. Intent matters. If the phenomenon is violent and we offer friendship it may be seen as weakness. If it is advanced but not hostile and we raise a weapon it may provoke a response we do not want. The plan reached high levels of coordination before it was stopped.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The tanker planes surging toward the Middle East may be replacing U.S. aircraft already destroyed on the ground Everyone read this week's wave of American refueling aircraft into the region as the setup for a weekend escalation. Karen Kwiatkowski offered a darker possibility: the tankers may be replacements, covering for aircraft damaged or destroyed at their bases, because the signs of hidden hurt keep stacking up. Commercial satellite imagery of US positions is suddenly blurred and delayed, she says, and Iranian English language news sites have been made unreachable. Her rule from past rounds of this war is blunt: "We're being damaged more than what they're admitting to." Then the stakes on the next rung. She echoed Tehran's warning that striking Iran's power grid brings the same to the Gulf, and in a 120 degree summer that means no water, no air conditioning, and no easy way out for millions.

🇮🇷 Iran may never need to build a bomb, because in 2026 the cheaper option is buying one from a friend Everyone asking whether Tehran will race for a weapon is picturing centrifuge halls and ten-year timelines. Karen Kwiatkowski, who spent a career inside the Pentagon, thinks the question is quainter than the world it lives in: "nukes are cheap and easy, and our nukes are very old" Her logic runs like an arms bazaar. The technology is eighty years old. China, Russia and North Korea all hold newer designs than anything in the American stockpile, and Pakistan has already offered to fire its own weapons in Iran's defense, which might be the cheapest deterrent ever priced. A country with friends doesn't need a program. It needs a checkbook. Then she flips the whole premise, and this is the part worth sitting with. A proliferation wave may never come, because states that watched this war may conclude America can now be contained without one. The asymmetry nobody says out loud: Washington can't shop. Nobody sells to the United States, nobody helps it modernize, and rebuilding a tactical arsenal from scratch is money and stomach the country doesn't have. Karen Kwiatkowski Brandon Weichert

‼️‼️🇺🇲🇮🇷 BREAKING | The White House has drawn a explicit, zero-tolerance red line, signaling that any attempt by Tehran to build a hardened subterranean nuclear shield will be met with immediate destruction. President Donald Trump explicitly declared that the U.S. military will target Iran's new subterranean facility at "Pickaxe Mountain," warning that Washington will unleash overwhelming force against any location associated with Iranian nuclear reconstitution. Trump made clear that any facility linked to Tehran's nuclear ambitions—regardless of how deeply buried or heavily fortified—is now marked for an immediate strike. Targeting Pickaxe Mountain represents a decisive move to pre-empt Iran's strategy of burying its centrifuges beneath mountain ranges where conventional munitions cannot reach. By publicly committing to hit these reinforced sites "very, very powerfully," the administration is signaling its readiness to deploy specialized bunker-busting ordnance—or execute sustained, multi-wave deep-penetration operations—to prevent Iran from achieving breakout capacity. This escalates the standoff from tactical signaling to an imminent target-destruction doctrine, stripping away diplomatic ambiguity and placing the two nations on the immediate brink of open warfare over Iran's underground nuclear core.

🇺🇸 🇮🇷 How Washington would sell Trump on nuking Iran... Picture the meeting. Someone walks into the Oval Office and explains that the B61 bomb has a dial on it. Turn the yield down to 0.3 kilotons, against the 15 that leveled Hiroshima. Contained blast, minimal fallout, tunnels under Pickaxe Mountain sealed forever. Problem solved. Matthew Hoh, a former Marine and State Department officer, has been dreading that conversation for months, and he can already hear the line that closes it: "Only Harry Truman was brave enough to use them." Flattery aimed precisely at a president who prizes being called decisive. What no pitch covers is the morning after. Iran does not capitulate to a sealed tunnel. Ninety two million people do not surrender because a mountain collapsed. And the phrase "usable nuclear weapon" stops being a Pentagon abstraction for every other country on earth. Eighty years of restraint, talked away with a dial and a compliment. Matthew Hoh Brandon Weichert

Turn the yield down to 0.3 kilotons, against the 15 that leveled Hiroshima. Contained blast, minimal fallout, tunnels under Pickaxe Mountain sealed forever. Problem solved. Matthew Hoh, a former Marine and State Department officer, has been dreading that conversation for months, and he can already hear the line that closes it: "Only Harry Truman was brave enough to use them." Flattery aimed precisely at a president who prizes being called decisive. What no pitch covers is the morning after. Iran does not capitulate to a sealed tunnel. Ninety two million people do not surrender because a mountain collapsed. And the phrase "usable nuclear weapon" stops being a Pentagon abstraction for every other country on earth. Eighty years of restraint, talked away with a dial and a compliment. Matthew Hoh Brandon Weichert

🇮🇷🇺🇸 The ceasefire is so battered its main use now is measuring who's breaking it... Karen Kwiatkowski didn't dress it up. She backed this deal at the start, and today she describes it as little more than a document you hold up against American conduct and count the violations. Israel keeps demolishing homes in southern Lebanon, making good, in her words, on the promise that 200,000 Lebanese will have nothing to return to. Washington could stop it with funding and vetoes. It chooses not to. The Katz threat against Mojtaba Khamenei ahead of the funeral came up, naturally. Her read cuts against the panic: real assassins don't announce themselves, and neither Israel nor an exhausted US military could absorb what Iran would unleash. Terror talk, she thinks, more than a plan. Then she surprised me with a flicker of actual hope, and it came from inside Israel. Gadi Eisenkot's fast-rising Yashar party: a general who's seen war up close, backs a two-state solution, and might be the only figure who can pull the Arab parties into a coalition. Netanyahu and Bennett can't touch that math. Generals who've buried soldiers, she noted, sometimes govern like Eisenhower, and we ended on his Cross of Iron speech: every rocket fired is a theft from those who hunger. Karen Kwiatkowski

Pauline Hanson’s Nuclear Word Salad OH MY GOD. 😂 #PaulineHanson has produced what may be her finest piece of nuclear word salad yet. She was asked a very simple question: How many nuclear reactors does #OneNation actually want, and does the government need to fund them? < AND DOES THE GOVERNMENT need to fund them? Her answer starts reasonably enough: ⛐ “Put in a reactor.” Then the Hanson sentence generator kicks in: ⛐ “To start with one, it all comes down to if you can afford it as well, as a nation.” WHAT DOES THAT SENTENCE MEAN? 😂 “To start with one” — okay, one what? “It all comes down to if you can afford it” — afford WHAT? “As well, as a nation” — as well as WHAT? And then, without actually finishing the thought, she simply abandons the sentence and changes direction: “And I'd like the reactor to go on the east coast.” Righto. Geography solved. Then: “Build one and deliver the power.” Excellent. A nuclear reactor has now been reduced to “build one.” But then comes the pièce de résistance: “The more we can get power out to the people, we will increase industries, manufacturing, and leave the energy cost on people.” 𖧀 LEAVE THE ENERGY COST ON PEOPLE. What? Did she mean reduce energy costs? Did she mean lower energy costs? Did she mean pass energy costs on to people? Nobody knows. Because she has started one sentence, wandered into another, thrown “industries” and “manufacturing” into the middle of it, and then crashed directly into: LEAVE THE ENERGY COST ON PEOPLE. And THAT is apparently One Nation's nuclear energy policy. →One reactor. →Somewhere on the east coast. →If we can afford it. →Build one. →Deliver the power. →Increase industries. →Manufacturing. →Leave the energy cost on people. Question unanswered. Sentence unfinished. Policy missing. But hey... #nuclear 😂 She really is DUMBER than a pie full of pimples.

‼️‼️🇷🇺☢️ BREAKING | Russian state television is once again normalizing nuclear blackmail, with propagandists openly discussing demonstrative nuclear use and even the possibility of escalating to a real strike against the United Kingdom if the West refuses to back down. During the discussion, one speaker argued that Russia should conduct an actual nuclear test to force the world to witness a visible demonstration of Kremlin power, while another went further and advocated demonstrative nuclear strikes as a means of coercion. The rhetoric then escalated to the suggestion that, if the West failed to respond, Russia should consider a direct nuclear attack on British territory. Expert Konstantin Simonov added that Russia would struggle in a conventional war against Europe because of its demographic, technological and economic disadvantages, and argued that nuclear coercion therefore remains Moscow’s most powerful instrument for forcing European states to disengage from the war. The significance is less about whether such threats are operational policy and more about how openly nuclear escalation is being mainstreamed inside Russia’s state-controlled information space. The message is designed to compensate for conventional weakness by convincing European societies that continued support for Ukraine carries unacceptable risk. In practice, this is nuclear intimidation as strategic messaging: if Moscow cannot dominate Europe conventionally, it wants fear of escalation to do the work instead.

This is what it looks like to be hunted by the Islamic Republic. The young woman in this video is Bita Shafiei, a fearless anti-regime revolutionary. She has become a symbol of the struggle for Iran's future, and she recorded this as a message to the world because she knew the regime was coming for her. She predicted her own disappearance with haunting accuracy. On November 13, 2025, that prediction came true. Bita was kidnapped by state forces in Iran and taken to a prison known for the systematic torture of political prisoners. Bita was the voice for a generation demanding freedom. Now that the regime has taken her voice, she is depending on us to keep her alive. She specifically asked that if she were taken, we must not let her name be forgotten. This is not just a video from the past. It is a life or death situation happening right now. Say her name. Bita Shafiei.

🇺🇸🇸🇾 From a $10 million American bounty to a seat at the White House in under two years... Reports out of Beirut today say the White House wants Ahmed al-Sharaa's forces to open a front against Hezbollah in Lebanon. The same man carried a $10 MILLION American bounty until late 2024 and has since been received at the White House. Karen Kwiatkowski, a retired Air Force lieutenant colonel and Pentagon veteran, reads the story as a symptom. In her telling, Trump asked NATO for basing, overflight, and help on the Gulf side, came away with refusals, and the search for partners has now reached men Washington once hunted. She would not bank a single promise out of Damascus either. Israel is peeling away Syrian territory right now, she noted, which gives al-Sharaa every incentive to find an arrangement with Hezbollah and zero incentive to fight it for Washington. Her numbers explain the desperation. By her estimate the U.S. has roughly a month of major munitions left at this tempo, manufacturers are quoting two to three years to restock, and Patriot batteries are firing less and misfiring more. She believes Trump wants an off ramp and is backed against a wall instead. Her summary of the position: "He's playing cards and he has no hand." Karen Kwiatkowski
