Verdict Unresolvable

'Culling' populations and reliance on AI surveillance are undefined and untimed; state violence against unrest occurs somewhere at all times, so no outcome could clearly confirm or refute it.

What he said

that can often mean calling your population. Calling your population just means um killing them.

Iran & Middle East

The US-Iran ceasefire will not hold; the war will resume within a week, two weeks or a month because no mutually satisfying arrangement is possible.

The ceasefire did eventually fail, but not within the month: there were skirmishes and US 'self-defense' strikes around Hormuz on May 7, a ceasefire extension and a peace memorandum in June, and full-scale war resumed only on Jul 8, 2026, about 10 weeks after the video.

Iran & Middle East

Over the next few months America will shift to a 21st-century strategy against Iran: economic strangulation, stoking ethnic insurgency, and destroying civilian infrastructure (dams, power plants, roads, rail).

Economic strangulation intensified: the naval blockade (in place since Apr 13) was reinstated in July and the 'Economic D-Day' sanctions campaign followed in August. The US also hit bridges, a railway station and power infrastructure in July. There is no evidence of the US stoking ethnic insurgencies or striking dams by Aug 28.

Iran & Middle East

US ground forces will seize Kharg Island and the coastline and position forces in the northwest and southeast to spark ethnic uprisings in Iran.

Nearly six months after the video, no US ground force has seized Kharg Island or the Iranian coastline, and none is positioned in northwest or southeast Iran. Kharg was only struck from the air, and seizing it remained a floated option.

Iran & Middle East

The US will keep losing the Iran war and grow desperate enough to commit war crimes against civilian infrastructure.

After the ceasefire collapsed in July 2026, the US struck bridges, a railway station and power infrastructure in southern Iran, and legal experts called this a potential war crime (CENTCOM said the targets were military). Whether the US is 'losing' is disputed; most analysts describe a stalemate.

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.
