Grossi Says IAEA Report ‘Not Basis For War’ After Threat Of Legal Action From Iran

 Grossi Says IAEA Report ‘Not Basis For War’ After Threat Of Legal Action From Iran

An Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman said this week that the IAEA report on Iran helped pave the way for Israel’s war on the country

The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Rafael Grossi, said that the agency’s report accusing Iran of secret and illicit nuclear activity is not the reason behind Israel’s war against the country, after Tehran signaled it would take legal action against him.

“A report on the nuclear verification in Iran could hardly be a basis for any military action. Military action, from whomever it comes, is a political decision that has nothing to do with what we’re saying,” Grossi told CNN.

“In that report, I also said that, at this point, we do not have any indication that there is a systemic program in Iran to manufacture a nuclear weapon. It’s true that in the early 2000s, there had been some activities which were assessed at that time as related to nuclear weapon development … we are not seeing this now,” he added.

When asked about a potential “timeline” in which Iran could build a nuclear weapon, Grossi said discussing a timeline would be nothing but “pure speculation.”

On 19 June, the Head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) Mohammad Eslami sent a letter to Grossi condemning the “the criminal Zionist regime’s repeated barbaric attacks” across Iran and on its nuclear facilities, adding that these attacks took place “despite repeated warnings to you regarding inaction, especially by the Board of Governors, which unfortunately operates under the guidance, influence, and support of three European countries, the US, and the Zionist regime.”

A $50M software built for counterinsurgency now steers nuclear diplomacy… and may have lit the fuse for a regional war.

…But what if the intelligence fueling this war came not from Mossad or Pentagon satellites but from a #UN agency’s software? Since 2015, the #IAEA has relied on #Palantir’s #Mosaic platform, a $50-million AI system that sifts 400 million data points—satellite imagery, social media, personnel logs—to predict nuclear threats. On June 12, Iran leaked documents it claimed showed IAEA chief Rafael Grossi shared Mosaic outputs with Israel, effectively turning the agency into a “tool for aggression.” The charge echoes a pattern: prior to 2025, Mosaic data helped shape sanctions and even UN aid decisions despite risks of bias...

…The problem? Mosaic’s lineage screams bias. Funded by #InQTel, the CIA’s venture arm, #Palantir powers IDF targeting in #Gaza and #Ukraine’s #drone strikes. Mosaic’s black-box algorithms, unauditable and proprietary, risk turning the IAEA from neutral inspector into a data proxy for preemptive war. As we’ll explore with Fordow’s role, this software may have already crossed that line, threatening the Non-Proliferation Treaty it was meant to uphold…

…Mosaic, crunching 400 million data points since 2015, mapped Fordow’s centrifuge cascades and satellite imagery, flagging anomalies as threats. Its AI, built for counterinsurgency, predicts intent—perfect for crafting a “nine-bomb” narrative. The May 31 report cited undeclared traces at Lavisan-Shian and Turquzabad, echoing 2018 when Mosaic’s findings sparked sanctions despite Iran’s “sabotage” claims. Iran’s nuclear chief, Behrouz Kamalvandi, alleged in 2025 that Turquzabad’s coordinates were “planted,” suggesting fabricated evidence. Iran’s June 12 leak, claiming Rafael Grossi shared Mosaic data with Israel, deepened suspicions…
