- China did the Satellite targeting for our bases for Iran

from The Tara Show

In Hour 4, Segment 2 of the May 18, 2026, broadcast of The Tara Show, host Tara Servatius breaks down an alarming intelligence leak revealing that China actively provided the satellite targeting data used by Iran to strike American military bases. The segment details how Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) bypassed standard military limits by secretly acquiring control of the Chinese-built TEE-01B spy satellite. Tara highlights tracking logs showing that Chinese commercial ground stations funneled high-resolution, real-time coordinates to Iranian forces, allowing them to precisely coordinate drone and missile strikes against major U.S. installations, including the Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia where several U.S. aircraft were damaged. The show frames this space-based collusion as definitive proof of a deadly, undeclared shadow war, warning listeners that Beijing's global satellite infrastructure is being actively weaponized to dismantle American military dominance across the Middle East.

00:02 First we learned, and I'm surprised I haven't heard more about this on talk radio, maybe it was missed, that China did the targeting for the bombing of our bases early in the Iran war that it was satellites. Seven troops died. 00:18 To me, that was an outrage enough, I would have never gone to China. I wouldn't have dignified them with my presence, but Trump has different ways of fighting them. But it was a total outrage. Then in the week before the China trip, Iran bombed our base at Erbil, which had US forces on it. There has not been any word of whether there were any injuries there or not. We had a skeleton crew there. 00:46 Because we can't staff it like we used to. Why? Because Iran has never stopped bombing our bases. I can only assume that because China was doing the satellite targeting the beginning of this, they're still doing it now. Why wouldn't they be? 00:59 Then there was the outrage two weeks ago when China tried to run our blockade with resupply for Iran. Then there was the outrage of folks, Pakistan is another one of these protectorates of China. That's why I call it Chiran. We let Pakistan, you know, moderate the talks. Well, the whole time they're hiding part of the Iranian Air Force. They're, you know, um planes in Pakistan, so we can't get to them. 01:30 And what? Pakistan says, hey, you know, why don't you stop this project, Freedom and Let It Run, do whatever the hell they want in the golf, in the straight. Okay. We'll just let it run wild. 01:45 But the gravest outrage of all, folks, and the Trump administration not talking about this, they should, was that as Donald Trump sat at that table across from China, at that exact time, China was rearming Iran, as it was telling us and pledging, we're not gonna rear Iran, we don't want a nuclear on Iran, we're gonna help end the war. Bull. 02:10 And a lot of people don't realize it happened. Many people heard the story of, hey, Iran, you know, took over ship right outside the UAE and those waters was good. It was an armory, a Chinese armory that they whoops, happened to know was there and boarded and took over. God knows what was on it. And the timing folks it's right as Trump sitting at the table, China is rearming Iran while saying they're not going to enough. E enough word done. 02:40 finish them. I am sick of these games. And I hope we're just waiting for the right time to do it. General Jack Keane as exasperated as I was this week this weekend on what needs to happen next. It's diplomacy dead with Iran. Well, I think president Trump is exercise enormous amount of strategic patients here he was given some indications that these guys were willing to make a deal and he's given them 5 plus weeks to come forward with something. 03:07 and obviously what they were doing their objective was i think the delay not to make a deal and the president has ran out of patience i don't think there's any deal to be made here in the problem i've always had with the deal even if the deal is perfect what we do with any deal is we have to give them money to uh... to get here to what they want to deal they want their frozen assets to be given to them as a hundred billion dollars they want sanctions removed 03:34 If we ever did that, what are we really doing? The regime not only survives, but we wind up financing their recovery. Well, that's a good to the point. So that's why they're interested. That's why they're interested in a deal. They don't just want to survive. want to be able that was in the Trump deal that he offered them. Unfreeze the assets. They'll just rebuild with China. They'll be killing our troops again in no time. This is not a way forward. I'm terrified that Iran will make a deal. I am legit terrified of that. 04:03 with Trump, that he will make it, they will make a deal with Trump. Because that'll put Chiran back in business like that. They will violate it in five minutes. They were violating it literally at the table during t ...
