Could Tulsi be wrong?


I guess, but this wasn't her popping off on some fox news show. It was her as DNI giving her report to the select committee.

Do we have anything substantial to say our entire intelligence community's assessment was wrong? Or is it just Bibi's "trust me bro"?

Another stab in the dark here... could she just simply have withheld "need to know" or "top secret" information as our critters are kinda untrustworthy these days?

On the one hand- our government/intelligence/military needs oversight.

On the other hand- some situations would understandably call for keeping your cards close to your vest.

slightly deceitful post.

Iran was not building nuclear weapons because they do not yet have enough fissable material to build a nuclear weapon.

it's a neocon trick because they love war. Meanwhile the govt is paying for a protest/campaign they want to escalate this weekend against itself.

Where is Chip Roy, Thomas Massie, Rand Paul? SPEAK UP.

Well stated! Especially when one of those religions is peppered with radicals who have as a pillar of their religion the call for the deaths of any non-believers, but especially those of a specific other religion.

And unicorns exist too. If you truly think Iran wasn’t building nuclear weapons the whole time then you are dumb. Our enemies will do anything to hurt us. The government isn’t going to tip their hand my publicly announcing what they know of don’t know.

Edits and exclusions in a story sure can push a false narrative.

And based on intelligence from our IC Saddam had WMD too.

Either our IC sucks really, really bad or our IC lies constantly.

Iran's gov't has been attacking Israel via Hamas for decades.
Iran's gov't has used Yemen as it's puppet to attack merchant vessels.
Iran has the ability to manufacture a nuclear weapon if:
A. They are working that way.
or B. They decided to work that .

If you were to replace the word Israel the word USA in the above. EVERYONE sane would say they got what was coming to them.
