WAR & DECEPTION - w/ Alastair Crooke​

Streamed live on Apr 16, 2026
"Former British diplomat and intelligence officer Alastair Crooke speaks to CN Live! about war in the Middle East and the ways Western publics are deceived about it.

War and deception have a long association. Donald Trump seems proud that he twice deceived the Iranians under cover of ongoing peace talks to launch military attacks against them. But it is not just the enemy that is deceived.

Carrying out an unpopular war of aggression for no legitimate reason usually requires deceiving your own public too. Thus the fake Gulf of Tonkin incident, Nazi SS soldiers dressed as Poles attacking a German radio station to start World War II, and the false story of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.

In the unprovoked war against Iran, the big lie is that Tehran is on the verge of getting a nuclear weapon while being the biggest sponsor of terrorism. Iran is presented as a threat to Israel and the U.S. rather than an obstacle to their expansionism. This deception comes atop layers of falsehoods about the founding of the state of Israel and its regional ambitions, the nature of resistance to it and the identity of the aggressor.

To speak with us today about these matters is Alastair Crooke. Alastair is a former British diplomat and intelligence officer with long experience in the Middle East and elsewhere. Crooke established Conflicts Forum in 2004 with the aim of helping western governments understand Islamist groups and their military resistance to Israel."

Is it your assertion that the Taliban and Vietcong were able to do nothing? Or that they had reliable energy?

Both had the DemoKKKrats rooting for them.

Do you think that is why those wars failed? Because traitorous leftists were cheering for the bad guys?



Really?

[eagle1462010]

"We?"

Yeah. The U.S Navy.

You young or just ignoring the history of Iran?

Really?

We lose Wars because politicians dont allow the military to win. Or they bail before finishing it.

 

[Alicia J]

They tried before. Thats when we put their last Navy on the bottom of the gulf.

Well, this time they have succeeded. And you can blame your mentally ill precious hero Trump for that.

 

[SaxonJackson]

Yeah. The U.S Navy.

You young or just ignoring the history of Iran?

The use of "we" implies "you and me." We didn't do a thing.

Really?

We gave up in Vietnam because of strife at home.

We never should have gone there, and the prosecution of the war was pretty pathetic.

I am still sorry nobody dropped a bomb on Jane Fonda's ass when she was sitting in the seat of an NVA anti-aircraft gun.

 

[HikerGuy83]

Well, this time they have succeeded. And you can blame your mentally ill precious hero Trump for that.

This time?

Thanks for admitting they failed before.

We can't even get good information and already your Butt Plug pathological hatred of Trump is causing you to claim defeat. You really are sick

Get some help.

 

[Alicia J]

I was talking about before Trump, you idiot.

We do have good information. Iran has got mentally ill simple-minded Trump by the balls. --

Iran’s military announced it has closed the Strait of Hormuz just a day after the country declared the waterway open, decrying the U.S. blockade and leaving the status of the vital waterway unclear.

The Strait of Hormuz had “returned to its previous state” and “is under the strict management and control of the Armed Forces,” Iran’s military command said Saturday, according to a statement published by Iranian state-backed media.

Uh....no.....you were talking about IRAN. Your follow up statement sets it clearly.

Stop lying, Butt Plug.

If you call whatever it is you are sucking out of the Mullah's dick...good information....I can see why.

I'm not lying, troll. You can't win debates against me, so you have to lie.

Two merchant ships also said they were shot at today by Iran's "non-existent" Navy. Are they are making it up, too?

Face it, Iran has won this war and they have made Trump their little *****. --

Merchant vessels attempting to cross the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday received radio messages from Iran's navy telling them they were not allowed ‌to pass, while two ships reported being hit by gunfire, shipping sources said.

Several commercial vessels tried to transit the strait after receiving a notice to mariners a day earlier saying passage would be allowed but restricted to lanes Iran deemed safe.

[HikerGuy83]

I'm not lying, troll.

You lie all the time.

You can't win debates against me, so you have to lie.

That's your argument? That's how you prove you are not lying?

And you whine about debating?

 

[Alicia J]

You lie all the time.


That's your argument? That's how you prove you are not lying?

And you whine about debating?

Yes, I post real information.....while you play with Trump's pecker.

That's how I easily destroy your mentally ill MAGA ass in debates.

 

[HikerGuy83]

Two merchant ships also said they were shot at today by Iran's "non-existent" Navy.

So what? What does that prove? That Iran can skulk around when they've committed to other things?

A couple of small guns on 20 fastboats is not a navy, dumbass.

Why is Iran doing this? Because we've closed their ports.

Why a U.S. blockade on Iran seems to be working

Iran-linked or sanctioned vessels that have left the Persian Gulf through the Strait of Hormuz have stopped or turned around, shipping data firms say. They appear to have jammed or faked their locations in some instances, complicating an uncertain and risky shipping situation.

Are they are making it up, too?

You can deal in all the absolutes you want, Butt Plug.

You are either (1) Super stupid (2) So pathological that you have to manufacture stuff just to keep your dumbassed arguments alive.

Face it, Iran has won this war and they have made Trump their little *****. --

There is no war.

Iran can't fight a war. We made sure of that.

We are just allowing them time to think about what happens next.

Why don't you get your lips off the Ayatollah's penis, do up your hajib, and get a life.
