Col. Larry Wilkerson, former chief of staff to Colin Powell, sees a psychological warfare campaign stretching every incident far past what it actually was, and the louder the statements get, the less attention goes to what’s really changing in the region.

He watched an administration sell a war on thin evidence once before, and the American public paid for that one for twenty years.

Voters should demand the evidence before they’re asked to fund the next round.

  Mario Nawfal (@MarioNawfal)🇮🇷🇺🇸 Trump reportedly says Iran was behind the airliner attack and promises retaliation, and Iranian forces may already be suiting up for what comes next

A pilot stabbed, a tail damaged, a steep drop on the trackers and nobody dead, and already a Saudi official tells NBC the initial findings suggest foreign backing, Israel reportedly plans to send a delegation to help investigate, and the president has named Tehran.

Larry Wilkerson calls it a tempest in a teapot, and warns that teapots get turned into major things.

From his own experience of steep descents, he doubts anyone could move forward against those G-forces, if the drop was as fast as reported.

What alarms him more is his claim that Iran has put its forces in chemical, biological and radiological readiness, which reads either as a specific warning received or as Tehran taking Netanyahu’s “the next one will be a big one” at face value.

And Bloomberg says Araghchi offered inspectors at the bombed nuclear sites for sanctions relief, an offer Wilkerson says went nowhere because Rubio had Iran’s delegation out of New York early.
