Pentagon tells Congress no sign that Iran was going to attack US first, sources say

[demmiblue]

WASHINGTON, March 1 (Reuters) - Trump administration officials acknowledged in closed-door briefings with congressional staff on Sunday that there was no intelligence suggesting Iran planned to attack U.S. forces first, two people familiar with the matter said.

The United States and Israel launched their most ambitious attacks on Iran in decades on Saturday, killing Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, sinking Iranian warships and hitting more than 1,000 targets so far, officials say.

But Sunday's remarks to Congress appeared to undercut one of the key arguments for the war made by senior administration officials.

They told reporters the day before that President Donald Trump decided to launch the attacks in part because of indicators that Iranians might strike U.S. forces in the Middle East "perhaps preemptively."

2. The Pentagon is telling Congress that they have a duty

to reign this motherfucker in. But with Lindsey Graham and Tom Cotton knob jobbing trump and handing him his Stay Out of Jail Free Card, that ain't gonna happen.

This is them telling Congress the facts, and I don't think even Democratic leadership are hearing the message from the Pentagon.

gives to members of Congress, it isn't just giving to Republicans.

3. This sustains my point for why Krasnov went to war with Iran

It is his progression to becoming dictator, he alone can go to war with anyone at any time and no one can stop him.

Krasnov doesn't give a shit what his military experts tell him, his orders must be obeyed. That's why he went after the 6 Democratic members of Congress who made the video so hard.

Krasnov has the military right now at our southern border looking for illegal immigrants.

Krasnov is also gaining control of the MSM, planning to rig future elections, planning to outlaw peaceful protests, planning to become North Korea.
