Verdict Didn't happen

Iran never declared war under popular pressure. The next round started when the US and Israel attacked on 28 Feb 2026, and Iran fought back.

Iran & Middle East

Within the next few years a US ground invasion of Iran will occur, the Dome of the Rock will be destroyed somehow, and a movement will emerge to return Jews to Israel (driven by Christian Zionism).

As of October 2026 none of the three has happened: no US ground invasion of Iran (only an air and sea war since 28 Feb 2026), no reported destruction of the Dome of the Rock, and no notable new movement to return Jews to Israel. The window runs to mid-2028.

How calls are found and checked

Each transcript was read in full by an AI model to pull out predictions, with the exact quote and timestamp. Each one was then checked with web search against events up to the update date, with sources linked.

How the hit rate works

Spot a mistake? Report it. Hit rate = (came true + ½ partly) ÷ resolved calls. Claims that were already underway when he made them are left out. Open calls haven't reached a verdict; Unresolvable ones are too vague ever to check. Verdicts are AI-assisted and may contain errors.
