In a shocking admission that torches the narrative peddled by CNN, The New York Times, and the Associated Press, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Esmail Baqaei has confessed that Iran’s nuclear facilities have, in fact, been badly damaged in the precision strikes carried out under President Trump’s order.
“I have nothing to add on this matter because it’s a technical issue. Our Atomic Energy Organization and other relevant agencies are working on it. But yes, our nuclear installations have been damaged — that’s for sure — because they have come under repeated attacks by Israeli and American aggressors,” Esmail Baqaei.

Lets put as succinctly as we can in a language that any really really dumb journalist out there working for the cause of the left can understand... IRAN’S NUCLEAR PROGRAM IS OVER... And they aren’t going to start up another one because they know what will happen if they do.
Doh!
It’s childish the way the media thinks it can somehow damage Trump my saying the bombing might not have destroyed this or that.
How would that reflect badly on the president?
They just hate that he’s succeeding.
Why would Iran make such an admission? I don’t think it’s a simple statement.
It could really mean, OK, I give up, I’ll be good. And in the meantime they are secretly rebuilding so when Trump leaves office they can nuke the hell out of everyone.
Baqaei
the khameini would like to see you in his bunker
POTUS and the Pentagon pulled it off without the media or democrats knowing what was going to happen and the media is having a hissy fit because there wasn’t a leak.
So, since there wasn’t a leak on the front end, I suspect they fabricated a leak on the back end......or at least blew it WAY out of proportion.
He better check with his ayatollah.............
They choose not to understand.
He doesn’t hate The Great Satan as much as DNCNN and NYT does.
I figure they still have nuclear ambitions; I know from observation how the devil works.
But before the Iranians can even think about new nuke facilities, they have to rebuild their air defense systems and that will take time and money.
It will also require permission from Argus-eyed Israelis; that could be hard to obtain.
I doubt they will even talk privately about a nuke rebuild as long as that Trump is in office.
What’s good for America is bad for the Democrats and what’s good for Democrats is bad for America. That old adage was true in the past, currently in the present, and will be true in the future. The American media has been almost gleeful in falsely reporting that the attacks on Iranian nuclear sites were less than successful. Their hatred for the bad “Orange Man” is so deep they would wish for the failure of the American military as long as it makes Trump look bad.
“And in the meantime they are secretly rebuilding so when Trump leaves office they can nuke the hell out of everyone.”
They probably have already started planning the rebuild. These nutcases aren’t going away.

That’s a smart thing to say, regardless of the actual truth.
Saying, “The damage is minimal, we’ll be back in business soon.” … that would be inviting follow-up strikes.
And if follow-up strikes continue anyway, Iran can now claim it’s an overkill.
LOL, his boss Khamenei just said they were “untouched”!
Gee, whether to trust the leftist media or a mouthpiece for the islamists in Iran. Now that is truly a dilemma.
Yes. is is a very unusual admission. The ulterior motive may be to stop further international interest in their program as they rebuild.
Their withdrawal from IAEA inspections is equally suspicious. Those inspections could provide realistic BDA.
Reminds me of the time when Bush the later was President, and a devastating hurricane had just hit New Orleans. As Bush was flying down the MSM had two negative stories ready to roll.
1. If Bush landed they were going to say that Bush was interfering with on-the-ground work just for a photo op.
2. If Bush did not land, they were going to say Bush didn’t care enough to bother himself.
When the press has zero integrity, and the viewers are lo info slugs, words are simply words that are used to cause preferred reactions. That is now our reality.
That’s the precise takeaway.
All the noise and bluster that kept the West, and the US in particular, from liquidating that project - it’s been shown to be just that - bluff.
Netanyahu and Trump have called the bluff, and the fragile eggshell of illusion has been shattered. No one is coming their rescue - certainly not Russia or China.
And this will be no different.
The left media will continue to downplay the success of the bombing in spite of that press conference this morning.....it’ll roll off like water on a ducks back......they absolutely can not give Trump any credit for any reason.
When he said if he cured cancer the left would find fault with it he was absolutely correct.
