The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

LurkerMom: CNN? CNN? CNN? CNN? Bwhahahahaha..You watch and believe what CNN reports on?

The report was issued by the Defense Intelligence Agency, not CNN. CNN simply reported on what was in the assessment.

Every major news agency has investigated and is reporting that Mad King Donald's claim that Iran's nuclear program was “completely and fully obliterated” is a lie.

AP News, apnews.com - Iran nuclear program military strikes trump: The assessment also suggests that at least some of Iran’s highly enriched uranium, necessary for creating a nuclear weapon, was moved out of multiple sites before the U.S. strikes and survived, and it found that Iran’s centrifuges, which are required to further enrich uranium to weapons-grade levels, are largely intact...

The New York Times, nytimes.com - Iran nuclear sites: Preliminary classified findings indicate that the attack sealed off the entrances to two facilities but did not collapse their underground buildings.

Even Mad King Donald has changed his tune. NPR, npr.org - Iran nuclear program u s strikes intelligence assessment: President Trump on Wednesday said that a preliminary U.S. intelligence assessment of the damage caused by U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities was inconclusive, but said he continues to believe it was severe.

NBC News, nbcnews.com - Strikes iran set back nuclear program several months sources say: The initial assessment would appear to contradict Trump's and Netanyahu's claims the U.S. attack "obliterated" Iran's nuclear capabilities.

The Guardian, the Washington Post, Reuters, and on and on have similar reporting.

But, sure, cultists cannot doubt the cult leader.
