As the dust settles on the "12 Day War", it is ever-clearer that the conflict was a crushing defeat for Israel and the US. In retrospect, the Zionist entity's sole success was a wave of assassinations in the conflict's first hours. A fawning June 19th Financial Times report hinted cutting-edge technology drawing together diverse data and intelligence sources was responsible. This raises the obvious question of whether Tel Aviv was assisted in its murderous spree by notorious private spying giant Palantir.
An avowedly pro-Israel tech giant founded by Donald Trump confidante and ardent Zionist Peter Thiel, which reportedly provides artificial intelligence tech supporting Tel Aviv's genocide in Gaza, Palantir's tendrils extend typically unseen into almost every conceivable sphere of public and private life across the West. Moreover, the firm - launched with seed funding from CIA venture capital wing In-Q-Tel - has long-played a pivotal but barely acknowledged role in the International Atomic Energy Agency’s monitoring of Tehran’s nuclear research.
The interpretation Palantir was one way or another involved in Israel's illegal "preemptive" war of aggression against Tehran is amply reinforced by the release of sensitive Israeli documents by Iran's intelligence ministry. These files indicate the IAEA previously provided Israeli intelligence with the names of several Iranian nuclear scientists, who were subsequently assassinated. Additionally, current Association chief Rafael Grossi enjoys a close, long-running, clandestine relationship with Israeli officials. Subsequent disclosures could expose the IAEA's dark alliance with Palantir.
'Fishing Expedition'
In July 2015, the Obama administration inked the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action with Tehran. Under its auspices, in return for sanctions relief, the IAEA was granted unimpeded access to Iran's nuclear facilities, to ensure the Islamic Republic was not developing nuclear weapons. Vast amounts of information on and within the sites, including surveillance camera photos, measurement data, and documents were collected along the way. The Association consistently found Iran was stringently adhering to the JCPOA’s terms.
Following Trump's first inauguration however, the JCPOA began to come apart at the seams. In October 2017, he refused to certify Iran's compliance with its obligations on bogus grounds, and began threatening to tear up the agreement outright and reimpose sanctions. The next March, then-IAEA director general Yukiya Amano sounded alarm over this prospect, claiming the JCPOA had produced "the world's most robust [nuclear] verification regime" in Iran, and its cessation would represent a "great loss". He went on to boast of how Association inspectors:
"Now spend 3,000 calendar days per year on the ground in Iran. We have installed some 2,000 tamper-proof seals on nuclear material and equipment. We have carried out more than 60 complementary accesses [unannounced inspections] and visited more than 190 buildings…We collect and analyse hundreds of thousands of images captured daily by our sophisticated surveillance cameras…about half of the total number of such images that we collect throughout the world. We collect over one million pieces of open source information each month."Amano added IAEA activities in Tehran were "supported by state-of-the-art technology, including data collecting and processing systems." Unmentioned was that these innovative resources were provided by Palantir. The company's central role in scrutinizing Iran's nuclear compliance and intimate handshake with the IAEA was revealed two months later by Bloomberg, mere days before the Trump administration shredded the Agreement and launched a "maximum pressure" campaign against Tehran. Former US energy secretary Ernest Moniz effusively praised Palantir's contribution:
"We have a completely unique and unparalleled intrusive verification regime that was not there before the agreement."A tool dubbed Mosaic served as "the analytical core" and "platform of choice" for the IAEA's verification mission in Iran. The software helped the Association "plan and justify unscheduled probes", collating and processing data from around 400 million “digital objects" globally, "including social media feeds and satellite photographs." Mosaic was also charged with examining en-masse documents not only collected by the IAEA, but tens of thousands of sensitive files stolen by Mossad from Tehran.
