New U.S. intelligence assessments are raising serious questions about the outcome of the recent conflict with Iran, suggesting that despite weeks of intense military strikes and claims of its industrial base being ‘obliterated, Tehran has been able to rapidly rebuild key elements of its arsenal.
The findings, according to various reports, complicate the strategic picture for Donald Trump, who now faces mounting pressure over whether to escalate the conflict again or risk losing whatever gains were achieved.
According to multiple intelligence sources, Iran has been rebuilding its military capacity far faster than initially expected. Officials say the timeline for recovery has exceeded prior estimates.
“The Iranians have exceeded all timelines the [intelligence community] had for reconstitution,” one U.S. official said.
Intel reports however the article links to The Independent a UK mouth piece as a source for those reports so I call shenanigans...if they rebuilt anything it was more like harvesting the broken pieces to build what they can out of leftovers I speculate.
I am sure this newspaper is deeply in bed with US intel. SO, what reports do they have?
4 US officials told CNN..... YEAH! We got the Comey holdovers!
Top Iranian diplomat and parliamentary speaker Mohammed Bagher Ghalibaf ..... yeah, yeah, yeah ..... Iranian bullshit. Like Achmed the dead Terrorist said: is a flesh wound.
Two sources FAMILIAR with US intelligence assessments told CNN ..... ok, slang for a brain fart.
The analysis corroborates reports by The Independent earlier this month that at least 60 per cent of Iran’s missiles have survived the US-Israeli attacks while nuclear facilities remained largely unharmed, according to sources. again, slang for making shit up.
US intelligence showed that Iran retained a substantial amount of its missile capabilities, according to a report in the New York Times. Blasé..... again a brain fart.
"Sources" trace back to "intelligence assessments" supposedly provided by unnamed "officials." And to similar "reports" appearing in other news media. Exactly how is this different from a totally made-up myth?
If any of this is true, it puts a finger on unapproved leakers from within the intelligence community. At which point, there is no difference between a "leak" and an outright lie.

No problem if true. We will just blow all of it up.

Enough said.
So, GWP links to Independent.CO.UK.

60% of their missiles survived. If they had them to begin with, they would have used them unless of course we took out all their launchers.
Where would Iran get people to replace the thousands who have been killed? Especially since most of their citizens despise the government.
Perfect. Now we have justification to go back and obliterate the current round of moolas.
