Surge in Pizza Orders at the Pentagon Before Israel's Attack on Iran Raises Questions
A significant spike in pizza deliveries before a military strike has fueled speculation about the timing and awareness of the operation.
The recent military strike by Israel on Iran, which involved over 200 fighter jets targeting more than 100 sites, has raised eyebrows concerning the preemptive signs detected at the Pentagon.
Around one hour before Iranian state television reported explosions in Tehran, an account on social media claimed a substantial increase in pizza deliveries to the Pentagon, highlighting that nearly all nearby pizza establishments experienced a surge in orders.
This claim has garnered attention for suggesting a link between food delivery patterns and major military activities.
The account, known for tracking unusual late-night activity at the Pentagon, noted a significant spike in pizza orders just before the air assault.
The Pentagon has been associated with heightened pizza delivery activity before military operations in the past, including during the 1989 invasion of Panama and the Gulf War in 1991.
In addition to the pizza delivery trends, reports indicated an unusual decline in foot traffic at local venues, such as a nearby gay bar, further suggesting notable activity within military circles.
While the analysis of food deliveries as indicators of military actions does not have a scientific basis, it has prompted discussion regarding its relevance.
The U.S. government's movements in the lead-up to the attack were also indicative of escalating tensions.
On the Wednesday prior to the strike, American officials announced the evacuation of some diplomats and their families from the Middle East.
Furthermore, the U.S. Ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, tweeted a message indicating vigilance at the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem shortly before the strike took place.
In response to the Israeli attacks, Iranian officials have accused the United States of complicity.
The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Esmaeil Baghaei, claimed that ongoing negotiations regarding Iran's nuclear program would now be deemed 'meaningless' due to what he described as U.S. enablement of Israeli actions against Iran.
The U.S. has officially denied any involvement in or foreknowledge of the Israeli military actions, with President Donald Trump acknowledging that while he was aware of the strikes beforehand, he still believed in the potential for diplomatic negotiations.
Iran maintains that its nuclear program is solely for peaceful purposes and has rejected accusations from Israel alleging the intention to develop nuclear weapons.
The current geopolitical climate underscores increasing tensions surrounding Iran's nuclear capabilities and the broader implications of military engagements in the region.
