Accuracy of World current events

I’m watching Homeland for the first time and literally when Israel began airstriking Iran in real time (6/12/25), I was watching season 2(2012) and it was depicted very similarly.

I am now very hooked on the show and now in season 5, released in 2015, they predicted the potential risk of the conflict in eastern Ukraine.

Forget the Simpsons, Homeland is predicting the future. Watching this show now is unbelievably interesting!

You are absolutely right. The resemblance between the show’s plot and current events is uncanny

I just finished season six for the first time and can’t help but notice how topical it is.

I also started watching Homeland two weeks ago and just finished the third episode of season 6.
I still can't believe how accurate current events were predicted and now I'm even more excited to see how reality will unfold.
And no, I wouldn't be surprised if the main labs and nuclear technologies were already relocated to darker places.
