Michael Popok: 我认为特朗普政府在伊朗浓缩铀问题上犯下了严重的错误,导致我们对足以制造10颗核弹的铀失去了追踪。这不仅是情报上的失误,更是因为特朗普政府在中东地区缺乏周密的计划和战略。我担心这种失误会加剧地区紧张局势,甚至可能将我们拖入一场不必要的战争。我特别关注国际原子能机构的报告,他们似乎也对这些铀的下落表示担忧,这更加剧了我的不安。我认为,特朗普政府需要对此事负责,并采取紧急措施来纠正这一错误,以避免潜在的灾难性后果。此外,我也对特朗普与内塔尼亚胡之间的关系感到担忧,他们的共同利益可能会导致美国在中东地区的政策偏离正轨,进一步加剧地区的不稳定性。我呼吁各方保持冷静和克制,通过外交途径解决争端,避免采取可能导致局势升级的行动。总之,我认为当前局势非常危险,需要我们高度警惕和采取果断行动。

The international community has lost track of a significant amount of Iranian enriched uranium, enough to produce 10 nuclear bombs. This oversight is attributed to the Trump administration's lack of planning and hasty decision to engage in a Middle East war, aligning with Israel's timeline rather than the US's.
  • Loss of 409 kilograms of Iranian enriched uranium
  • Enough material for 10 nuclear bombs
  • Lack of planning in Middle East war
  • Trump's legacy and attempt to appear as a wartime president

You heard me right.

The international inspectors and therefore Donald Trump do not know where 409 kilograms, the entirety of the Iranian stockpile for uranium, enough to make 10 bombs. They don't know where it is because the war started without proper planning. Donald Trump backing us into a war with Iran on Israel's timetable, not the United States' timetable, as Donald Trump tries to scramble Iran.

to catch up with his two weeks, another two weeks. Just need two more weeks to figure it all out. Why don't you figure out where the 10 potential bombs are? I read that in a news reporting, and it was kind of buried in the middle of the article that the international inspection community has lost track of the uranium that makes bombs or could be easily upgraded from the 60% enriched to 90% enriched it needs to make a bomb. I'm like, why isn't that the headline?

And it just goes to show you what these two, they're like twins separated at birth, Netanyahu and Trump. They're both trying to change their legacies, right? They both have terrible legacies. You know, you've got the Hamas attack killing thousands when Israel was caught with its pants down on the 7th of October under Netanyahu, who was about to go to jail for fraud. And then you've got his counterpart separated at birth.

you know, brothers from different mothers. Donald Trump with his criminal first term, his criminal second term, his abuse of power second term and first term, his impeachments. Hey, I know how to fix it. I'll solve the Middle East crisis by bombing our way out of it.

That's what we're watching. Even the right right wing is saying, what happened to America first? Why are we why are we fighting that war? Note to people that think that Republicans support Israel. See Marjorie Taylor Greene's comments. But where is the missing 10 killer 10 bombs? Effectively, I'm Michael Popak. You're on the Midas Touch Network and Legal AF. This is not getting enough press.

The International Atomic Energy Agency had been inspecting up until the 13th of June about 500 times a year in Iran. They may be our enemy and they may be hiding the ball, but they were allowing in a lot of inspectors. That's why the inspectors had one view about how close Iran was to making a nuclear bomb. Israel had another, which was like in a month.

And the intelligence community under Donald Trump, led by Tulsi Gabbard, of all things, she said they were at least a year away, relying on more of the International Atomic Energy Agency's inspection reports. We're there now because Trump sided with Netanyahu and his intelligence over Tulsi Gabbard.

Let's put a pin in that. We're going to follow that. Tulsi Gabbard's probably not long for this administration because Donald Trump doesn't even trust her as the intelligence agent and doesn't trust John Ratliff as the head of the CIA. Not if he's relying on the Mossad instead in Israel. Once the bombing started, without our approval apparently, or without our involvement, and nobody thought to ask, hey, you know, what about the 409 kilograms of enriched uranium? Where's that these days?

So it put a chill down my spine, as you can imagine, when I see the interview with the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency. And he says the following, Rafael Monaco Gross, the reporter asked him, do you know right now where those about 16 small canisters are? And he said, I'm not so sure.

How is that not the headline? See, mainstream news is so glossed over with Trump fatigue. They don't know what's news and what isn't. I do. I do. That's big news. Where is it? How do we get it back? That's the leverage that Iran has over these negotiations. There's about nine different facilities that make up the nuclear complex of Iran. And their war with Iraq is

kind of inform them on how to build bombs and hide things and put things deep in bunkers underground. The three main hubs of that nuclear facility is Natanz, which is a uranium enrichment facility, Isfahan Nuclear Technology and Research Center, which is like their lab, and FADRO, which is the hardened facility 100 meters deep below the rock in a mountain.

which we can't get to and the Israelis can't get to without the mother of all bomb bunker busters being dropped from a giant American aircraft.

So I had an old buddy from law school came to crash at my place after we had moved to Florida. I hadn't seen him in years. First thing he says is, wait, where's the cat? I thought you were a cat guy now. I was like, she's here. She's just not triggering your allergies anymore. Thanks to Packagen. This episode is sponsored by Packagen. That's P-A-C-A-G-E-N, pronounced Packagen. And listen, cat allergies are brutal. Almost one in five people have them. And most allergy fixes either don't work or come with side effects.

But Pacagen isn't a treatment for your allergies. It works on the allergens around your home, breaking them down so your body never has to deal with them in the first place.

Cats groom themselves constantly. Their saliva is basically allergen central. That's why Pakogen's whisker block protein is genius. It binds to and neutralizes those cat allergens without harsh chemicals. You just spray it every few days and breathe easier. It's safe. It works. And it's science backed literally by Harvard and Princeton scientists. Your pets aren't just pets, they're family. So do what I did.

There has been some damage since the 13th of June on at least three out of the nine that I just described.

mainly whatever is above ground and electrical. Now, could it have damaged the centrifuges, which are necessary, the thousands of them, to enrich uranium deep below the surface because the electrical power grid was cut off? Yes and no. Israel did a good job about five years ago without shedding any blood and taking any civilians.

of injecting into the computer systems of Iran a computer worm. I think it was uploaded through a thumb drive that they placed there.

And it and it sent it controlled that centrifuges, the centrifuges main panels and sent them spinning in the wrong direction or off kilter, ruining the centrifuges. And it's set back. They think that act alone, that sabotage of cybersecurity set back the Iranian process by two or three years until we got to today. So centrifuges are a delicate thing.

But you got to think that they learned and they have redundant systems of electricity and electrical power. So by some reports based on the satellites, we've only set back the Iranians or the Israelis have by half a year, unless we get below ground with bombs that are made in America and not available as of yet to the Israelis. That purportedly is the decision that Donald Trump is making over the quote unquote next two weeks.

But in the meantime, that's two weeks too much for me for the equivalent of 10 nuclear bombs that nobody knows where they are. I mean, that's Iran's ultimate leverage. So when we watch a president who is motivated by his legacy, by trying to be a wartime president, joining forces with somebody who's equally criminal,

and equally fraudulent in Israel, in Netanyahu, who has to clean up his own act because of what happened and his reputation in Tatar is based on his fraud investigation and criminal prosecution and what happened with Hamas killing Israelis and kidnapping them. Look out. When that tail wags that dog, we're all in trouble. And that's what we're watching, this combination of Netanyahu and Trump. And as I said earlier,

Israel doesn't lift a finger against Hezbollah in Lebanon, against Hamas in Gaza, against Iran in Iran without the U.S. government telling them it's OK. Stay quiet on the phone, if you will. So don't believe any of this reporting about, you know,

It's not that Trump was caught with his pants down. It's that there was no forethought and no planning around it. And that's why we have 10 potential missing nuclear bombs. I'm going to continue to cover it all. You're here on the Midas Touch Network. We just rolled the odometer together to 5 million.
