The First Casualty
They told you Iran's missiles were being swatted from the sky. They told you the Iron Dome was holding, the Patriot batteries were working, US and Israeli air power was surgical and winning. They told you this on the ABC. They told you this on Sky. They were telling you nonsense. MIT Professor Ted Postol — the man who proved the Patriot missile failed in the Gulf War while presidents were claiming a 97 percent success rate — has now established that current intercept rates against Iranian missiles run at a few percent at most. The systems are depleting. The decoys are multiplying. The official story is, in his own carefully chosen word, a fraud. The first casualty of war is truth. But the deeper insight, the one Phillip Knightley identified fifty years ago, is that the lies are not random. They serve purposes. And right now, they are serving purposes that Australians have every right to examine. -

Few weeks ago, prof. #TedPostol, who was scientific adviser for the Reagan administration on #NuclearWar, told me:
"If you ask me what is the smartest thing to do for the safety of all world, is for the United States remove all nuclear weapons from Europe. All of them".

#TedPostol is one of the few who had access to the #BlackBook which US presidents use to order a #NuclearAttack
I asked him: did you ever feel a heavy heart for this and did you ever feel the duty to blow the whistle as #DanielEllsberg?
-
#TedPostol, who is a Jewish, told #FattoQuotidiano that he does NOT think #Iran would use the atomic bomb in combat, if they get it:
"I am more worried about Israel, they are so aggressive, their judgment is so poor"
-
#TedPostol to #FattoQuotidiano
"the Israeli government has been lying for decades about the capabilities of their missile defence system, lying to their own people, and to the rest of the world"
-
Today we at #FattoQuotidiano, run an interview w/US physicist #TedPostol (who accessed the #BlackBook in the US president's #NuclearFootball).
"I think they [#Iranians]are very reluctant[to build a bomb],but they may feel they have no choice"
-
#TedPostol ha avuto accesso al #BlackBook, le istruzioni con cui presidente USA può lanciare attacco nucleare.
Gli ho chiesto: ma lei non si sente il cuore pesante di sapere e non parlare? Sono informazioni che riguardano 8 MILIARDI di persone
-
tornando a #TedPostol, che è stato consigliere scientifico per governo USA, durante amm. Reagan: nomina tecnica, NON politica.#TedPostol ha visto come finisce il mondo

l'#Iran ha uranio arricchito al 90% di U235? A oggi, NO. Come lo sappiamo? Lo sappiamo dalle ispezioni IAEA.
Allora che cosa ha l'Iran? Ha uranio arricchito al 60 %. E durante la nostra intervista,#TedPostol si è messo al calcolare quanto ci vuole per passare dal 60 al 90 % -
ora io provo a spiegarvi quello che mi ha spiegato #TedPostol, mentre faceva i calcoli, durante la nostra intervista
-
durante la nostra intervista,#TedPostol mi voleva far capire le conclusioni dell'#IAEA secondo cui saltare dall'uranio arricchito di U235 al 60% fino a quello al 90% è facile. Allora si è messo a farmi i calcoli al volo!
-
#TedPostol ci ha detto che, a suo avviso l'#Iran NON vuole costruire la bomba, ma dopo l'attacco di #Israele potrebbe essere portata a decidere di non avere scelta:

oggi abbiamo un'intervista sull'#Iran al fisico che la fine del mondo l'ha vista per davvero: si chiama #TedPostol,prof.emerito al #MIT,ex consigliere scientifico per amm. Reagan. Durante la nostra intervista ci ha fatto i calcoli al volo sull'U235
