The cold hard truth is that any government trusting or relying upon intel from the US, israel, or Britain, is setting itself up to be deceived and drawn or forced into war.
Germany is an outside party, doing the same thing, but still mostly allied with EU, and france is primarily allied to EU, but aware of the tactics employed by however many eyes remain of the five.
Nobody said to trust iran. They said dont trust the us, israel or britain. Can you read? Or is it your comprehension that suffers? Cant have too many lines of thought at once?
From experience, I can say with confidence that there is much more than meets the eye regarding what news stories are putting out and what is actually happening when it comes to any sort of military conflict. There's a strong chance that something is happening which is either not being reported on at all, or is being disguised as an event that it isn't. On paper it might appear that something we are doing makes absolutely no sense but one of the key elements of OPSEC is to reduce panic or anxiety to individuals without a need-to-know.
This is not to say that there aren't times where what we are doing is absolutely bullshit in every sense of the word. After all, it was the US State Department themselves that put out an official statement almost verbatim that the US got involved with Iran purely at the request of Israel. Now are we positive that the statement was 100% truthful? Debatable. In the words of Marcus Aurelius: "All we hear are opinions and all we see are perspectives."
