🇺🇸l🇮🇷 NEW: A classified report by the National Intelligence Council, representing the collective wisdom of America's 18 intelligence agencies, found that even a large-scale assault on Iran would be unlikely to oust its entrenched military and clerical establishment

The report outlined succession scenarios resulting from either a short or extended U.S. military campaign. In both cases, it concluded the clerical and military establishment would respond to Khamenei's killing by following protocols designed to preserve continuity of power...

The report says the prospect of Iran’s fragmented opposition taking control of the country is “unlikely,” raising doubts about Trump’s declared plan to “clean out” Iran’s leadership structure and install a ruler of his choosing

🇺🇸⚔️🇮🇷 Number of Ukrainian civilians killed after 4 years of the war: 15,100

Number of Iranian civilians killed after 6 days of the war: Approx. 1,150

Russia kills approximately 10 civilians per day (recently far fewer), the Israeli-American coalition kills 192 civilians per day.

It would take them 72 more days of fighting to overtake Russia.

✡️ Tucker Carlson's criticism of Chabad-Lubavitch struck a nerve

Randy Fine is now demanding that Tucker Carlson be excommunicated from the Republican Party because he attacked Chabad-Lubavitch, who he says are "the best group of Jews out there."

He says nobody in history has ever had anything bad to say about Chabad-Lubavitch.

"We have a cancer in this country. It is antisemitism, and Tucker Carlson represents it."
