LARRY JOHNSTONE—Iran did not launch a “faux missile attack.” Iran launched a coordinated drone, cruise missile and ballistic missile attack. The version being fed to Sy is, in my opinion, a cover story to hide what CIA Director Bill Burns did. According to Pepe Escobar, who I presume has some well connected sources in the Persian Gulf nations, Burns met in Oman with an Iranian delegation in the days prior to April 14 and received assurances that Iran was not going to cause mass casualties in Israel. Instead, Iran used the first wave of drones as mere pawns in an elaborate game of military chess. The Iranians fully expected those drones to be shot down. That first wave of attacks provided Iran with some critical intelligence about the disposition and capability of Israel’s Iron Dome system.

I was fortunate to come to their attention and have appeared several times since March 2022. We discussed the situation in Ukraine and Israel/Palestine. With respect to Ukraine, I explain the significance of the 12 CIA bases that the New York Times claims are scattered throughout Ukraine.

Larry Johnson: DESPITE WESTERN INSISTENCE THAT IRAN FAILED, IRAN DID WHAT IT PLANNED TO DO IN ISRAEL
16 minutes readLARRY JOHNSON—Iran’s attack in the early morning hours of Sunday was symbolic retaliation. The mullahs and IRGC commanders put Israel on notice that any further attacks on Iran, especially Iranian territory, will be answered by Iranian attacks on Israel. Iran demonstrated a remarkably sophisticated attack using three different weapon systems — drones, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles. They did not use their most advanced, sophisticated weaponry. The drones were used in the same way that pawns are employed in a chess match — draw out the opponent and create vulnerabilities. Israel used up over 700 Iron Dome missiles in countering Iran’s 300 plus drones. Why? You normally fire two Iron Dome missiles per target to ensure a hit. Ditto for the cruise missiles. What we know for a fact is that most of the ballistic missiles hit their targets in Israel.
