Hey Copilot: are there any verified sources that this is even remotely true.jerrab » 25 Mar 2026, 11:51 am » wrote: ↑ go ahead and defend this, make my day

The Pentagon and the National Security Council had completely underestimated how willing Iran would be to shut off the vital shipping lane between Iran and Oman, through which around one-fifth of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas passes, multiple sources told CNN.
NO:
There are zero independently verified, on‑record sources confirming CNN’s claim. Every version of the claim traces back to CNN’s own anonymous sources, and every named official who responded has explicitly denied it.
No independent outlet has verified CNN’s claim
No reporting from:
- Reuters
- AP News
- Bloomberg
- WSJ
- DoD transcripts
- Congressional briefings
- Naval command statements
Bottom Line:
There is no verified, independently sourced evidence that the Pentagon or NSC underestimated Iran. The claim exists only inside CNN’s anonymously sourced reporting and the outlets that republished it.
You are a **** RETARD jerra. A Certified, Bonafide, Verified, Validated, Authenticated, Legitimate Bone-Headed ignorant lefty loser. MAGA rules you and your little ****-up fantasy world.
So, let's recap the Ignorance here...shall we.
