I totally didn’t see this coming.

Imagine my surprise.

Here is a list of failed moon-landing promises over the decades, from space agencies around the world.

Apparently, the tech from 60 years ago was superior. 😂

Space Exploration Initiative (1989)

Promise: President George H.W. Bush announced plans to return to the Moon and eventually send humans to Mars

Outcome: Programme cancelled in 1993 under President Clinton after just four years

Vision for Space Exploration (2004)

Promise: President George W. Bush announced plans to return humans to the Moon between 2015-2020, with initial goal of 2018

Outcome: Evolved into Constellation programme, which was later cancelled in 2010

Constellation Programme (2005-2010)

Promise: Return astronauts to the Moon by 2020 using Ares rockets and Orion spacecraft

Outcome: Cancelled by Obama administration in 2010 after spending over $9 billion, deemed "over budget, behind schedule, and lacking in innovation"

Artemis Programme (2017-present)

Promise: Trump's Space Policy Directive 1 (2017) initially aimed for Moon landing by 2024

Delays:

2024 → 2026 (announced January 2024)
2026 → 2027 (announced 2025)
2027 → 2028 (announced March 2026)

Recent changes: Artemis 3 lunar landing mission cancelled entirely in February 2026, replaced with orbital docking test

VIPER Moon Rover

Promise: $450 million ice-hunting rover for lunar exploration

Outcome: Cancelled in July 2024 due to budget constraints

SpaceX Promises

Dear Moon Mission


Promise: Private lunar flyby mission with Japanese billionaire Yusaku Maezawa and crew of artists, originally planned for 2023

Outcome: Cancelled in June 2024 due to delays with Starship development

Starship Lunar Lander

Promise: Key component of NASA's Artemis programme for landing astronauts on Moon

Status: Significant delays affecting entire Artemis timeline, contributing to mission postponements

Russian Space Agency (Roscosmos)
Luna Programme Revival


Promise: Putin announced in 2022 that Russia would restart Moon landings

Setbacks:

Luna-25 mission crashed on lunar surface in August 2023
Luna-26 mission delayed from 2027 to 2028 due to sanctions and technical issues
Venus missions also delayed to 2036

European Space Agency (ESA)
Luna Collaboration with Russia


Promise: Joint Luna missions (Luna-25, 26, 27) with Russia

Outcome: Cooperation ended in April 2022 following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, ESA retrieved its hardware

Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA)
Martian Moons eXploration (MMX)


Promise: Sample return mission from Mars' moon Phobos, originally scheduled for 2024

Outcome: Delayed to 2026 due to H3 rocket problems

Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO)
Chandrayaan-2


Promise: Moon mission originally planned for launch in 2016

Delays:

December 2016 → October 2018 → January 2019 → July 2019 (final launch)
Multiple technical delays over nearly three years

Human Lunar Mission

Promise: ISRO has discussed potential crewed lunar missions

The latest attack on Iran has created a monster.

Crowds are gathering across the country to express their anger towards Israel and America.

But please, continue defending Trump and Netanyahu. Attacking Iran will totally lead to peace.

Spending loads of money on hype: BILLIONS.

Making false promises about going to the moon: THEATRE.

Watching the NASA fanboys make excuses: PRICELESS.

For everything else, there’s MASTERCLASS.

The MAGA cult and the neocons are too blinded to see it.

The Great Blinding is an Iranian counter-attack to the US/Israel attack.

I can’t say for sure how true any of this is, since propaganda is thick during a war.

Nonetheless, Iran reportedly launched a major military operation, dubbed "Operation Great Blinding," targeting US radar systems and bases in the Gulf.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed to have destroyed the AN/FPS-132 early-warning radar in Qatar, significantly degrading US missile detection capabilities.

Attacks were also reported at Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait and a radar dome in Bahrain's Manama, home to the US Fifth Fleet.

A Shahed-136 drone was involved in the Bahrain strike, and the US MQ-4C Triton drone reportedly declared an emergency and diverted toward Saudi Arabia.

The report suggests Iran is using older missiles and drones to deplete US defences in a two-phase strategy, clearing the way for advanced missiles like Fattah or Kheibar.

On the Israeli front, heavy barrages have reportedly challenged Iron Dome defences, with admissions of system saturation.

The cancellation of a planned speech by Trump is possibly a sign of strategic shock, forcing a recalibration of US response options.

Many people close to Trump warned against this attack.

And the MAGA neocons have no sense of self awareness.

They continue to make excuses and kick the can down the road, not realising what this does to the global image of America.

The US and Israel attack Iran and Iran responds by shutting down half the world.

Anybody who thinks attacking Iran was a smart move, is a fool.

An observation:

During the 60s, anti-war protests were a big deal. So big, in fact, that the US president took action to muzzle them. There were even massive music events about their opposition to the Vietnam war, for example. Do you remember Woodstock?

Today, no such protests exist.

The only ‘protests’ we see are women demanding the right to abort their babies, and men wanting to be women.

What happened?

Vanessa Beeley chatted to me from Lebanon, discussing the recent attack on Iran by the United States of Israel, and how it's backfiring on the Zionist oligarchs trying to buffer against the Epstein revelations.

NEW - U.S. troops were told the war against Iran is for "Armageddon," and the "Return of Jesus."

Advocacy group reports commanders giving similar messages at more than 30 installations in every branch of the military.

Jewish filmmaker David Cole made a film about Auschwitz in 1992, which challenges the Holocaust narrative. Keep in mind that David interviewed the Head Of Archives, Franciszek Piper.

Back in 2021, David came onto my podcast and told me about all of it, also explaining why he had to change his name.

Now he has done a U-turn.

And he is trying to erase the film from the internet.

And has threatened me with legal action.

Go have a look:
