Resolution

Marked push on Jul 13, 2026.

[Re-scored right->push 2026-07-18, founder-approved] US struck Iran Feb 28, 2026 (Operation Epic Fury) — the core prediction (US strikes Iran) was correct and did occur. But his STATED horizon was "this weekend" (~Feb 21-22 from the Feb 20 episode); no strike happened that weekend — it came ~a week later. Judged against the words spoken rather than the looser extracted resolve_by (Feb 28), the timing failed, so partial credit (push). Illustrates the resolve_by-vs-stated-horizon gap.
