0:56Ben Meiselas:Donald Trump is panicking as Iran once again has successfully targeted a United States air base in Kuwait following the United States launching strikes against Iran throughout the night. Into the early morning hours, the United States and Iran were exchanging fire. This is a fake ceasefire, as I've said before, intended for Donald Trump's market manipulation. Let me tell you what's going down. So we learned that there were missile and drone sirens that were activated in Kuwait. According to a release from the Kuwaiti army, Kuwait's air defenses were engaged in a large wave of Iranian missiles and drones.

1:40Ben Meiselas:The Kuwaiti defense ministry told the public remain sheltered in place, remain sheltered in place. Iran then said, oh, we hit the target that we were aiming for right there, that U.S. air base in Kuwait, because they said that the United States was using that air base to strike Iran and that there was these outbreaks of this war that's been taking place, totally covered up by our media right here. The U.S. had to admit what it was doing here. Here's what went down. Iran's mayor news agency released a statement from the IRGC following these back and forth strikes. Here's the statement from the IRGC.

2:21Ben Meiselas:The origin of the aggression against the Syrick Island telecommunications tower was targeted following the recent aggression by the invading U.S. Army against a telecommunications tower on Syrick Island in the Hormuzgan province. The IRGC aerospace force fighters targeted the air base from which the aggression originated and the predicted targets were destroyed. The IRGC Aerospace Force warned that if the aggression is repeated, the response will be completely different and the responsibility lies with the invading and child-killing U.S. regime. So you remember our reporting over the weekend and I saw a lot of comments saying, Ben, are your reports true?

3:11Ben Meiselas:because I'm not hearing this anywhere else. You're talking about Iran striking down three to five U.S. aircraft, an MQ-9 Reaper, another MQ-9 Reaper, an MQ-1, that there were five Americans who were injured on this Kuwaiti airbase 48 hours ago. Why aren't we hearing this anywhere else? Because our corporate news is regime media, and they're covering up most of the stuff. That's why. And so this telecommunications tower has been used by Iran, among other things. They've been able to successfully track these F-35s and these drones. So the U.S. struck the telecommunications towers, which were being used to track the MQ-9 Reapers and the MQ-1.

4:00Ben Meiselas:And then Iran responded and Iran just hit the U.S. air base in Kuwait. Now, U.S. Central Command was just forced to admit what went down. CENTCOM announced that over the weekend, it carried out what it refers to as, quote, several self-defense strikes on Iranian air defenses, radar, command and control sites, and one-way attack drones in Garouk, Iran, and Keshem Island. The strikes, which occurred Saturday and Sunday, were in response to what they said were recent aggressive actions by Iran to include the shooting down of a US MQ1 predator that was operating over the international waters of the Persian Gulf.

4:46Ben Meiselas:So the United States says that we were put in our MQ1 and MQ9 Reapers over what the US claims was international waters. Iran said these are our land, this is our area. And then they were struck down. And then the US said that we were acting defensive by attacking Iran yet again. This was defensive. This was not aggressive. We were on the defense by going on the offense. This is straight out of George Orwell's 1984. In fact, far more dangerous in my view. But then Iran responded and Iran just targeted the US air base and hit it again. Meanwhile, you have all Donald Trump's weirdo MAGA propagandists like Laura Loomer saying, It's time to finish the job.

5:34Ben Meiselas:The back and forth is getting boring. The back and forth is getting boring. The American people are suffering right now as a result of this catastrophic war, and people across the world are suffering. The Trump regime and Netanyahu have engaged in terrible war crimes in Iran, in Lebanon, genocide in Gaza. Did you know that in the past 24 hours, 41 people were killed and 140 people were wounded in israeli strikes across lebanon on saturday which frankly should be called us and israeli strikes across lebanon because trump is green lighting this according to lebanon's health ministry israeli attacks have killed 3 412 people and wounded 10 ,269 others since Israel escalated its assault on March 2nd.

6:35Ben Meiselas:And we've seen amongst these 41 people killed and 140 wounded, children, mothers, lots of innocent people. And again, that doesn't get any attention at all. That's right by the city of Tyre or Sir. and it is just beyond fathomable what's going on there every single day. And so Kelly Myers, reporter, she tried to ask Hegseth a question. She was there with Hegseth. He was Hegseth was on this Asia trip, the Shangri-La trip, and he was coming back and he was being asked these questions. And she goes, I tried to ask Hegseth about this when he deplaned at JBA. but no comment as he walked to his car to leave.

7:25Ben Meiselas:About five, this is what we're learning. We reported on this three days ago. Five U.S. National Service members and contractors reportedly injured by, quote, falling debris from intercepted Iranian missiles on the Ali Al-Salam air base in Kuwait. Falling debris. They think we're the stupidest people. I'm sure that's what happened. It was the falling debris. No, what happened was the US targeted Iran. Iran responded. They hit Ali al-Salam. Our service members who were at this air base, once again, were not protected because this Trump regime is utterly incompetent. And five people were seriously injured at least.

8:08Ben Meiselas:And it's probably more than that because the Trump regime covers up everything. And now Hegsif, who is saying that he doesn't want to see, quote, fatties at the UFC fight that will be taking place in the White House lawn where they've ripped apart the White House for this UFC fight. No fatties, they say. And remember the video I did yesterday? No one wants to be affiliated with this sick Epstein class weird event for Trump's birthday. Even Rogan's like, this is a terrible idea, this event. But Hegseth refuses to answer a very basic question about that. Now, Iran's leadership, they're issuing numerous warnings right now.

8:49Ben Meiselas:You have Iran's main spokesperson at the IRGC saying, if Netanyahu does not stop his genocidal war in Lebanon, the collapse of the American economy will begin in June. Now, you may be like, well, what does he know about the American economy in June? It's IRGC. That's IRGC propaganda. No. One of the top Exxon executives said that if this war, if this catastrophic war is not resolved by Donald Trump in the next week to week and a half, we will see the biggest oil shock ever because we've hit that point where we've tapped into our oil reserves and the oil reserves that we've tapped into will now hit this critical threshold level where all of the prices of gas will be forced to be raised significantly.

9:43Ben Meiselas:The price per barrel will now hit 180 to 200 because the reserves will kind of tap out at this to this critical level. And then you'll be seeing $6,$7,$8. You'll be seeing gas lines. We're very close. I've been warning about this. The Exxon executive finally said it. And it's why it's important that we track what's going on and not buy into all of this propaganda. I mean, remember the propaganda yesterday morning? The propaganda yesterday morning is there's this outlet that's called Iran International, which makes you think they're an Iranian, that they're in Iran, but they're Iranians who left Iran that have Iran International.

10:26Ben Meiselas:And they did an article that said, Iran's president, Pazeshkian, offers resignation, citing total takeover by the IRGC commanders. Well, you have to look into what Iran International is. It's an Iranian dissident news network that was received. It was reported that it received lots of funding from Western sources or the UAE or others. And then we know this is false. The Iranians came out with a statement. The rumor mongering by the disreputable foreign network is a continuation of previous ridiculous media games. They have published their own wishful thinking in place of reality. President Pazeshkin will not retreat from serving the people, just as the Iranian nation will not step back from the path of solidarity and resistance.

11:16Ben Meiselas:They will take their wish to shatter the unity of the Iranian nation to the grave. Another Iranian leader wrote, to ward off the evil of the child-killing regime and to liberate the dear people of Lebanon from their current lamentable situation, we must first, Iran, in coordination with the resistance groups in the region, must take action against the bloodthirsty Zionist regime. Second, the Bab al-Mandab Strait must be closed. And third, the skies over the capital of Israel in the region, the Emirates must rain down stars. And then you had the foreign ministry spokesperson take a photo with the IRGC spokesperson showing the political side of Iran is united with the military side of Iran.

12:02Ben Meiselas:And they said, for one nation, for one country, for one goal, ready for any situation, field and diplomacy side by side. If you make me armor clad for the play of blades, if you gird my waist for the making of peace, to whatever you show me, hot and cold, I am receptive from reconciliation to battle. Come with me whatever you have of sword and cup, for in both of these, I have a full hand. Now, I'll just show you in terms of the media manipulation. You had Barack Ravid of Axios also last night. He said, Marco Rubio spoke over the last 48 hours with Lebanese President Joseph Ayun and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu to try to push forward a new ceasefire initiative, a U.S.

12:49Ben Meiselas:official told me. Then Barack Ravid does all of these siren emojis. I'm showing you the video footage of what Netanyahu is doing in Lebanon. I'm showing you Tyre. I've shown you before Beirut. I'm showing you the thousands of people who have been killed. Many, many, many innocent people, mothers, children, people in general being killed by Israel right there. And then so over here, when you try to read basically all of this, whatever this gibberish is basically. It says that, you know, that Israel was demanding that in Lebanon, Hezbollah stop first. Otherwise, Israel is going to keep on going on.

13:30Ben Meiselas:And they blame Lebanon. Lebanon, this is your fault. And then so basically after all of this, the story is Rubio was not able to get a deal because the Trump regime can't do a deal with anybody. Look at Barack Ravid's reporting on Iran. I tracked all of this starting on March 9th, 2026. Are you ready for this? March 9th, 2026. Trump says Iran war will be over very soon. March 13th, 2026. Scoop. Trump claimed in G7 call that Iran is about to surrender. March 23rd, 2026. U.S. negotiating with senior Iranian official, Trump. March 24th, 2026. U.S. awaits Iran's response on peace summit as Israel watches warily.

14:15Ben Meiselas:March 25th, 2026. White House downplays reports Iran rejected Trump peace proposal. March 27th, 2026. Rubio tells allies Iran war will continue two to four more weeks. April 5th, 2026. Trump to Axios. Iran deal possible by Tuesday. Otherwise, I'm blowing everything up. April 15th, 2020, April 11th, 20, April 10th, 2026, U.S. and Iran inch toward framework deal to end war, U.S. officials say. April 12th, 2026, scoop. U.S. considers$20 billion cash for uranium deal with Iran. April 12th, 2026, Trump tells Axios he expects Iran deal in a day or two. April 26, 2026. Iran offers U.S. deal to reopen straight, but postpones nuclear talks.

15:07Ben Meiselas:May 23, 2026. Exclusive. Trump says he's 50-50 on Iran deal, decision by Sunday. May 23, 2026. U.S.-Iran deal to end war will be finalized shortly, Trump says. Also in May 23, exclusive. What's inside the Iran deal that's close to signing? May 24, White House said Iran deal could take days. May 28th, scoop, US and Iran reach deal but needs Trump's final approval. May 28th, Van says US and Iran are very close to a deal. May 29th, Trump's team to decide on Iran deal. I mean, do you get the point? I mean, it's this over and over and over again. The propaganda, the flooding, the deluge is just next level.

15:49Ben Meiselas:And I'll share with you this. MB Galibov, Iran's parliament leader also issued a statement and he was with the other kind of parliament leaders today. M.B. Galabaf said, in the new phase of the war, the enemy through economic pressure and media campaigns seeks to create division and destroy the country's cohesion in order to compensate for its military defeat and forces to surrender. What a vain delusion. The great and history making nation of Iran knows today that they stand at a sensitive and historical juncture that future generations will envy. They are resisting against a bloodthirsty and murderous enemy that is determined to destroy Iran and Islam so that the Iranians of future years will be proud of their fathers and mothers.

16:31Ben Meiselas:The most important factor for victory in this war is cohesion and unity. What has caused the enemy's retreats alongside the military power of the combatants is the steadfastness of the people and their unity against a ruthless enemy. The secret, this secret to victory must be preserved. So that's what they're saying out of Iran. Donald Trump's posting. The New York Times wrote a story today entitled, The Trump administration sees striking exodus of legal talent as though it's a bad thing, when actually it's a good thing. The people that are leaving a radical left deep state lunatics. Or Donald Trump posted this before.

17:08Ben Meiselas:Fake news CNN today routinely that my Iran said today, routinely that my Iran nuclear deal doesn't talk about nuclear when it actually states very clearly that Iran will not have a nuclear weapon. It then goes on in very strong and lengthy detail to discuss various other aspects of nuclear. In fact, that's what most of this agreement is about. CNN and so many others in the fake news media is a low ratings disaster. Even with new ownership, It is unlikely to even get any better. Donald Trump trying to have his oligarchs take over CNN in this merger. I'll also note that Iran has restored gas production at three South Pars offshore platforms after those U.S.-Israeli strikes, which the U.S.

17:54Ben Meiselas:was like, oh, it was just Israeli. Iran resumed gas production at three offshore platforms in South Pars, the world's largest natural gas field, after Israeli strikes on onshore processing facilities in March, forced output to halt. The CEO of Parz Oil and Gas Company told state media on Sunday. So that's where we are with everything right there. We'll keep you posted. We just need to, we need to get out the accurate information. That's why we take the step-by-step and, uh, you know, Trump's out there posting, oh, we're, you don't know my deal. Well, I showed you, you were saying, you've been saying there's a deal since March, and this is just like what he did during COVID with kind of the same timeline, right?

18:38Ben Meiselas:Was that March of 2020, it's going away, it's going away, it's going away. We're good. April, it'll be gone by Easter. It'll be gone by summer. It'll be gone then. It'll be gone then. That's what they were saying. It's the same stuff. This is his cycle that he does over and over again, except in 2020, he lost the election. And then finally, someone who was competent was able to take over. But the arsonist blame the firefighter for putting out the arson. Right now there's midterms coming up, but is he going to drag this on forever? Are we going to have to wait for this oil shock and a complete global catastrophe that we're literally, we're like a week away from it.

19:16Ben Meiselas:And I'm not trying to be hyperbolic. I've been keeping us informed every step of the way. We're like a week away from this happening. And then everyone's going to be like, oh my God, it happened. Who would have known? Us. We all knew. We all knew this was happening. And he keeps on striking Iran. Dude, just get out of there. Just leave. You lost the war. Get out and leave already, man. Or enter into a deal, but leave. Okay? Stop harassing everybody. Freaking predator. Hit subscribe. Let's get to 7 million. Thanks for watching, everybody.
