Was Iran's so-called JCPOA agreement with European countries a plan for war? Could the decoding of the Mosaic project, designed by an American and Israeli designer, lead to the identification and killing of nuclear scientists by Israel?

A mysterious tool called "Mosaic" has helped the Zionists identify Iranian scientists who were targeted for assassination. Israel: With the start of the Zionist regime's aggressive war against Iran on June 13, 2025, attention was drawn to the hidden role of a mysterious tool called Mosaic (MOSAIC); software developed by the American company Palantir and with direct US financial support, has been widely used in the International Atomic Energy Agency's monitoring missions regarding Iran's nuclear program. From analyzing satellite images to monitoring social networks, this tool has practically erased the boundary between peaceful surveillance and military operations and has become a platform for predictive espionage.

The Cradle website writes: Mosaic has helped the Zionists identify Iranian scientists who were targeted for assassination and has justified many surprise inspections by the Agency with suspicious data. Now the serious question is whether the 2015 nuclear deal was a tool for preparing for war from the beginning?

About Mosaic; an information warfare tool

Mosaic is an advanced data analysis system designed with US funding and Palantir technology.

The tool is made up of more than 20 software projects, including the Electronic Verification Package and the Collaborative Analysis Platform.

Its main task: deep analysis of information from various sources, including aerial imagery, sensor data, and open data such as social media.

Data as a weapon: Millions of classified data from Iran’s nuclear facilities have entered Mosaic.

Even after Trump withdrew from the JCPOA, the Agency has continued to collect and analyze data with this tool.

Bloomberg News revealed that this data can be reconstructed into a visual map to track people, places and nuclear materials.

Spy in the guise of an inspector

Iran had expressed concerns from the beginning about Mosaic becoming a spying tool.

Analysts have warned about false or fabricated information entering the system; the result? Unnecessary inspections or even assassination targets

Some of the Mossad data provided to the IAEA in 2018 about Iran’s nuclear program was also from Mosaic’s opaque and unofficial information.

The IAEA’s controversial report; a pretext for an attack?

On May 31, the IAEA claimed, without providing any new evidence, that Iran may still be pursuing nuclear weapons.

This same report paved the way for the Board of Governors’ resolution and the Israeli attack on June 13.

A few days later, IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi admitted: “There is no evidence of an organized Iranian effort to build weapons.”

Surveillance or target identification?

Iran withdrew its cooperation with the agency, removed the cameras, and dismissed Grossi’s visit to the bombed sites as futile.

The inspections, especially in recent years, were conducted by analyzing hundreds of thousands of images daily and recording 3,000 calendar days at Iranian sites.

Nearly half of the agency’s surveillance images from around the world were taken from Iranian facilities alone.

Hidden costs

Mosaic was launched with a budget of about $44 million—about 10 percent of the agency’s total budget.

Nearly half of the agency’s annual budget comes from direct and unofficial U.S. contributions.

The timing of the project’s launch—two months before the signing of the JCPOA—intensifies speculation about its ulterior motives.

The reports, the assassinations of nuclear scientists and IRGC commanders, and Iran’s suspension of cooperation with the agency all raise a serious question: Was nuclear surveillance just a cover for planning military operations from the beginning?
