Episode notes
12 Feb 2026
A large-scale war with Iran is imminent, potentially involving nuclear weapons. The US is preparing for a prolonged conflict, with a significant military buildup in the region, including the deployment of the USS George Bush aircraft carrier and numerous transport aircraft. The situation is further exacerbated by Iran’s alleged nuclear weapons programme and the potential for a preemptive strike.
Iran is likely working on a nuclear weapon, possibly having already conducted a hidden underground detonation. The US and Israel, with help from China, are likely aware of Iran’s activities but cannot reveal their sources. Iran is preparing for a potential military attack, backfilling entrances to nuclear facilities and dispersing enriched uranium, while the US is moving Patriot missiles to Qatar.
