You should really pay closer attention to what he says.
If it was not for him we might never have known that the nuclear facilities in Iran are just a front for drug factories.
That is totally new for me. I understood the story differently. Well, is not "understanding" but "speculating" about what happened in certain events of the war.
According to news after the entrances of the nuclear facilities under the mountain were bombed, a weird release said that Iran was warned of the attack and that Iran had few days to move the Uranium to a safer place. The assumed reason was that if the explosions reach the uranium it can cause a environmental crisis in the whole area. I think for this reason Iran has bombed near the nuclear facilities of Israel as a warning, but never hit those directly.
Well, let's believe that such is what happened, Iran moved the uranium.
Iran, according to what was released later, gave a warning that will attack such and such US headquarters as a response to the attacks in its nuclear facilities entrances. Even the president gave thanks to Iran in one of his known speeches, that thanks to the early Iran's warning, no US troop died in those attacks.
I didn't believe that this kind of war was happening. This war is like a neighbor telling you in advance he will brake the front fence of your property so you better keep your dog lashed in the backyard, not so loose in the front yard. You do so, you agree with it. You move the dog to the back and your neighbor destroys with a bulldozer your front yard fence.
So, now it's your turn.
You give a warning to your neighbor telling him not to stay inside the living room but to watch TV in the kitchen located at the back of the house, because you will break all his front windows. Your neighbor agrees and he and his family stay most of the time far away from the living room area. Then you use bricks and break all the windows in the font of his house.
Do you really call to all of these, a war?
But, it happens, always speculating, that losing the military headquarter buildings is nothing in comparison to the satellite information giving the location where the uranium has been moved to. Then, is to sent an airplane or drone to survey the area. The airplane was shoot down, the pilot survived and sent the signals of his location. The US army sent not a helicopter but big bulky airplanes besides other war airplanes to rescue the US pilot. The idea, always speculating the events, was stealing the uranium besides the rescuing the pilot.
The Iranians suspected from the very beginning the intentions of their enemy and waited for the assuming rescuing with heavy artillery, drones and more. The rescuing was successful, but several US equipment, including airplane(s) were lost in the confrontation. The uranium stayed in Iran. Days later the president openly offer the peace agreement solely if Iran gives its Uranium and the conflict to end for good.
One can speculate lots of things in this "war".
If I see the sea near Iran full of US warships and thousands of troops ready for "invasion", such is not distraction but to me, speculating again, is to repeat the war strategy used in the war against Iraq: the football game strategy, if you can remember those days.
Iran will expect attacks from the sea, but at this step the ships and troops ready to land are the hook holding a worm, Iran -the fish- will go for the worm, and the fisherman will caught it from the back with the fisher net.
About the CNN release, I speculate that such is a way to say, "well, the uranium stuff didn't work, let's changed it, say it's drugs instead".
