Trump Poised For “Insane” Strikes On Iran While Lying To Americans

By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers

An informative new Security Council (SC) report circulating in the Kremlin today first noting the American media revealed President Donald Trump has reportedly ordered another round of strikes against Iran with coordination from Israel, says the Iranian government then quickly declared: “We view American media reports of possible attacks on Iranian infrastructure as insane…We have prepared a comprehensive response plan, including critical infrastructure facilities of the Zionist regime and US energy infrastructure in the region”.

While President Trump is poised for his latest insane strikes on Iran, this report notes, the New York Times revealed last week: “Iranian attacks on nine U.S. locations across the Middle East in the two weeks since the cease-fire broke down show that the country maintains an ability to inflict damage on precise targets, despite the Trump administration’s repeated claims that Iran’s military capabilities have been diminished or destroyed…Determining the damage to U.S. military sites has been hindered by a lack of high-resolution satellite imagery of the region…The government has asked major U.S. satellite providers to withhold visuals…But the locations of the bases are public knowledge, and Iran regularly and widely circulates imagery of their strikes on these and other U.S. targets”—a revelation joined with the news today:

The Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) released an initial post-impact satellite image showing damage to a US aircraft maintenance hangar at Muwaffaq Al Salti Air Base in Eastern Jordan.

The publication comes after US Central Command (CENTCOM) claimed that all Iranian missiles had been intercepted and that no US aircraft or equipment at the base had been damaged during the retaliatory attack.

Accompanying the imagery, the IRGC warned US authorities to “end the extensive censorship” and publish the actual damage assessment.

Along with President Trump blatantly lying to the American people about the catastrophic damage being caused by Iranian missile and drone strikes, this report details, the United States Central Command (CENTCOM) lyingly posted yesterday: “CLAIM: Once again, the Iranian government claims it has closed the Strait of Hormuz…This is FALSE…FACT: The Strait of Hormuz remains open for commercial vessel transit…Iran does not control it…Thousands of ships have sailed through the international waterway over the past four months”.

In direct contradiction of the propaganda lies posted by the United States Central Command yesterday, this report concludes, the independent international Strait of Hormuz monitoring site Strait Live, which is used by the global shipping industry, factually announced today: “The Strait of Hormuz is effectively closed to commercial shipping…As of 01 AUG 2026 · 1032Z, it is day 153 since the 28 February 2026 closure declaration…8 of the world’s largest container carriers have suspended Hormuz transits or rerouted via the Cape of Good Hope…War-risk insurance is running at 8.0× normal”.
