A NATO military intelligence official who was briefed on Pompeo’s claims about increased Iranian aggression in the Middle East said the substance of the intelligence that the Americans briefed was utterly unconvincing — even insulting. “Do they think that we are stupid?” asked the NATO official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity.
UK column video- has an excellent section on Iran:
The following two part article by Whitney Webb is a must read:
PART 1
With the US-Iran War Ball Now Rolling, Could an “Accident” or “False Flag” Serve as Pretext?
Certain forces in the U.S. and Israel have been actively pushing for war with Iran for years and have a track record that demonstrates little inhibition about using an “accident” to start it.

PART 2
History’s Dire Warning: Beware False-Flag Trigger for Long-Sought War with Iran
Israel’s “false flag” attack on the U.S.S. Liberty in 1967 cost 34 American lives. Dick Cheney planned to disguise U.S. troops as Iranians to fire on American ships to start a war. With Bolton and Israel on the warpath, the risk of another similar act is higher than ever.

P.S. Part 2 mentions Lyndon Baines Johnson (LBJ) who assumed the presidency following the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. He was very pro-Israel probably because his grandfather and father were members of the Christadelphian Church. The irony is that LBJ used a “false flag” incident (the Gulf of Tonkin) to expand the role of the USA in the disastrous Vietnam War and a “false flag” (attack on the Liberty) was used by Israel against the USA. Whoever believes that the “deep state” had no role in all of the above events (including the Kennedy assassination) is naive.
A war with Iran has wider implications for regional stability: See the Blog the Moon of Alabama: The Lunacy Of Waging A War On Iran From Which China And Russia Will Win
The question needs to be asked whether or not this is a deliberate
"Apocalyptic hoax"staged by Christian-Zionists in order to establish
regional stability under a newly appointed "religious authority" in
Jerusalem. Perhaps the way is being cleared for the introduction of
the Trump "Deal of the Century" Peace plan. After all should (((Iran)))
and (((Hezbollah))) attack perhaps the "Dome of the Rock" could be
"accidentally" destroyed by a missile (that word accident keeps appearing
in the narratives). After all the "Houthis" in Yemen (devout Shia Muslims)
have already threatened to rocket Mecca (if you can believe that LOL).
Anyway, such aggression by (((Iran))) or their proxy (((Hezbollah)))
or (((Hamas))) etc would justify Israel expelling many Palestinians
and annexing the West Bank etc. Who knows what nefarious plans have
been laid? However, rest assured, this has been planned since before
9/11 but whatever happens the faithful will not be deceived....God
will preserve a faithful remnant (both Jew and Gentile).
