We shared this request example with FAB participants: url_qparams = { "limit": count, "offset": offset, "has_group": "false", "order_by": "-activity", "forecast_type": "binary", "project": tournament_id, "status": "open", "type": "forecast", "include_description": "true", } url = f"{api_info.base_url}/questions/" response = requests.get( url, headers={"Authorization": f"Token {api_info.token}"}, params=url_qparams )
But we don't want to support all these parameters, and the ones relevant are: - order_by - status - project - forecast_type - we ignore this, but assume it's binary - FAB only supports binary for now.

The officials said Iran symbolically needed to strike back at the U.S. but at the same time carry it out in a way that allowed all sides an exit ramp; they described it as a similar strategy to 2020 when Iran gave Iraq heads up before firing ballistic missiles at an American base in Iraq following the assassination of its top general.\n\n[](mailto:?subject=%3Cstrong%3EUS%20used%20six%20B-2%20bombers%20to%20drop%2012%20%22bunker%20busters%22%20on%20Fordow%2C%20official%20says%3C%2Fstrong%3E\\&body=Checkout%20the%20latest%20news%20from%20CNN%3A%0Ahttps%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnn.com%2Fworld%2Flive-news%2Fisrael-iran-conflict-06-21-25-intl-hnk%23cmc70nvgj00203b6nlvrp7t6g \"Share with email\")" }, { "id": 38685, "title": "[Short fuse] Will an image of Donald Trump appear on the front page of the New York Times on July 4, 2025?", "short_title": "Will Trump Appear on NYT July 4th Cover?", "url_title": "Will Trump Appear on NYT July 4th Cover?", "slug": "will-trump-appear-on-nyt-july-4th-cover", "author_id": 271410, "author_username": "WasteTimeContinuum", "coauthors": [], "created_at": "2025-06-23T01:47:26.159192Z", "published_at": "2025-06-23T17:34:30Z", "edited_at": "2025-09-05T17:29:22.767515Z", "curation_status": "approved", "curation_status_updated_at": "2025-06-23T17:35:34Z", "comment_count": 12, "status": "resolved", "resolved": true, "actual_close_time": "2025-07-04T03:59:00Z", "scheduled_close_time": "2025-07-04T03:59:00Z", "scheduled_resolve_time": "2025-07-04T11:00:00Z", "actual_resolve_time": "2025-07-07T07:04:00Z", "open_time": "2025-06-24T17:34:30Z", "nr_forecasters": 12, "html_metadata_json": null, "projects": { "leaderboard_tag": [ { "id": 32607, "name": "2025 Leaderboard", "slug": "2025_leaderboard", "type": "leaderboard_tag" } ], "site_main": [ { "id": 144, "type": "site_main", "name": "Metaculus Community", "slug": null, "header_image": null, "prize_pool": null, "start_date": null, "close_date": null, "forecasting_end_date": null, "html_metadata_json": null, "is_ongoing": null, "user_permission": null, "created_at": "2023-11-08T16:55:29.484707Z", "edited_at": "2025-07-18T17:28:18.838588Z", "score_type": null, "default_permission": "forecaster", "visibility": "normal", "is_current_content_translated": false, "bot_leaderboard_status": "exclude_and_show" } ], "default_project": { "id": 144, "type": "site_main", "name": "Metaculus Community", "slug": null, "header_image": null, "prize_pool": null, "start_date": null, "close_date": null, "forecasting_end_date": null, "html_metadata_json": null, "is_ongoing": null, "user_permission": null, "created_at": "2023-11-08T16:55:29.484707Z", "edited_at": "2025-07-18T17:28:18.838588Z", "score_type": null, "default_permission": "forecaster", "visibility": "normal", "is_current_content_translated": false, "bot_leaderboard_status": "exclude_and_show" }, "category": [ { "id": 3689, "name": "Politics", "slug": "politics", "emoji": "🏛️", "description": "Politics", "type": "category" } ] }, "question": { "id": 37938, "title": "[Short fuse] Will an image of Donald Trump appear on the front page of the New York Times on July 4, 2025?", "created_at": "2025-06-23T01:47:26.159641Z", "open_time": "2025-06-24T17:34:30Z", "cp_reveal_time": "2025-06-25T17:34:00Z", "spot_scoring_time": "2025-06-25T17:34:00Z", "scheduled_resolve_time": "2025-07-04T11:00:00Z", "actual_resolve_time": "2025-07-07T07:04:00Z", "resolution_set_time": "2025-07-07T07:05:59.162552Z", "scheduled_close_time": "2025-07-04T03:59:00Z", "actual_close_time": "2025-07-04T03:59:00Z", "type": "binary", "options": null, "group_variable": "", "status": "resolved", "possibilities": null, "resolution": "no", "include_bots_in_aggregates": false, "question_weight": 1.0, "default_score_type": "peer", "default_aggregation_method": "recency_weighted", "label": "", "unit": "", "open_upper_bound": false, "open_lower_bound": false, "inbound_outcome_count": null, "scaling": { "range_min": null, "range_max": null, "nominal_min": null, "nominal_max": null, "zero_point": null, "open_upper_bound": false, "open_lower_bound": false, "inbound_outcome_count": null, "continuous_range": null }, "group_rank": null, "description": "The front page of *The New York Times* on Independence Day often serves as a symbolic snapshot of the nation's political and cultural mood.

Withdrawal from duties, for example due to health issues, is not sufficient.\n\nFleeing the country is defined as an indefinite departure from Iran and would also count for a Yes resolution. For example, reports that Khamenei has travelled to another country for medical treatment or a state visit would be considered temporary and would be insufficient.

Diplomacy or a Bunker-Busting Bomb](https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/16/us/politics/trump-iran-diplomacy-conflict.html)\n\n> President Trump is weighing a critical decision in the four-day-old war between Israel and Iran: whether to enter the fray by helping Israel destroy the deeply buried nuclear enrichment facility at Fordo, which only America’s biggest “bunker buster,” dropped by American B-2 bombers, can reach.\n\n> “Fordo has always been the crux of this thing,” said Brett McGurk, who worked on Middle East issues for four successive American presidents, from George W. Bush to Joseph R. Biden Jr. “If this ends with Fordo still enriching, then it’s not a strategic gain.”\n\n> That has been true for a long time, and over the past two years the U.S. military has refined the operation, under close White House scrutiny. The exercises led to the conclusion that one bomb would not solve the problem; any attack on Fordo would have to come in waves, with B-2s releasing one bomb after another down the same hole. And the operation would have to be executed by an American pilot and crew.\n\nAccording to [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fordow_Fuel_Enrichment_Plant):\n\n> **Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant** (**FFEP**) is an Iranian underground [uranium enrichment](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uranium_enrichment \"Uranium enrichment\") facility located 30 kilometres (20 mi) northeast of the Iranian city of [Qom](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qom \"Qom\"), at a former [Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_Revolutionary_Guard_Corps \"Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps\") base.The site is under the control of the [Atomic Energy Organization of Iran](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_Energy_Organization_of_Iran \"Atomic Energy Organization of Iran\") (AEOI). It is the second Iranian [uranium](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uranium \"Uranium\") enrichment facility, the other being the [Natanz Nuclear Facility](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natanz_Nuclear_Facility \"Natanz Nuclear Facility\").\n\nIn addition to the US striking the Fordow enrichment facility, there have also been reports of Israel [requesting](https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/israel-seeks-us-bunker-buster-14-000-kg-bomb-to-hit-irans-nuclear-sites-8691511) to be supplied with the bunker buster by the US. The Trump Administration is reported to be [considering](https://zamin.uz/en/world/152401-a-warning-signal-from-the-us-to-israel-bunker-bombs-under-discussion.html) the request.", "resolution_criteria": "This question resolves as **Yes** if, before January 1, 2026, the United States or Israel launches a direct kinetic attack on the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant (FFEP) in Iran, either by using a weapon system that has the ability to penetrate the ground deeply enough to significantly degrade and damage the plant or by planting explosives through a ground operation, according to [credible sources](https://www.metaculus.com/faq/#definitions).", "fine_print": "An example of a weapon system that would count is the [GBU-57A/B MOP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GBU-57A/B_MOP), \n\nAn example of a ground operation that would count is the 2024 [Masyaf commando raid](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Masyaf_raid).\n\nAn attack must be kinetic, which for purposes of this question [is defined as](https://defensescoop.com/2023/09/19/how-army-leaders-envision-non-kinetic-capabilities-enabling-traditional-forces/) involving weapons systems such as bombs that physically engage targets. Non-kinetic attacks, such as the [Stuxnet cyber attack](https://spectrum.ieee.org/the-real-story-of-stuxnet) that destroyed centrifuges at a different Iranian facility, will not count for purposes of this question. \n\nThe attack must also be direct, which means physically targeting and making contact with the plant itself. Indirect attacks, such as Israel's June 13, 2025 [attack](https://isis-online.org/isis-reports/detail/post-attack-analysis-of-israels-june-12-13-military-attack-on-irans-nuclear) on the electrical energy supply of Iran's Natanz facility, would not count, even if they result in the destruction of centrifuges or other parts of the Fordow plant.\n\nFor purposes of this question, resolution is based on whether an attack on the FFEP facility has taken place rather than the amount of damage actually inflicted.

Bush to Joseph R. Biden Jr. “If this ends with Fordo still enriching, then it’s not a strategic gain.”\n\n> That has been true for a long time, and over the past two years the U.S. military has refined the operation, under close White House scrutiny. The exercises led to the conclusion that one bomb would not solve the problem; any attack on Fordo would have to come in waves, with B-2s releasing one bomb after another down the same hole. And the operation would have to be executed by an American pilot and crew.\n\nAccording to [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fordow_Fuel_Enrichment_Plant):\n\n> **Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant** (**FFEP**) is an Iranian underground [uranium enrichment](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uranium_enrichment \"Uranium enrichment\") facility located 30 kilometres (20 mi) northeast of the Iranian city of [Qom](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qom \"Qom\"), at a former [Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_Revolutionary_Guard_Corps \"Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps\") base.The site is under the control of the [Atomic Energy Organization of Iran](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_Energy_Organization_of_Iran \"Atomic Energy Organization of Iran\") (AEOI).

For the avoidance of doubt, an attack occuring within areas indicated as Gaza, the West Bank or the Golan Heights on the map will not be sufficient for a positive resolution. Israel's [internal waters and territorial sea](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territorial_waters) (the latter being Israel's sovereign waters up to 12 nautical miles from the shore) will be considered \"within Israel\" for the purposes of this question. More distant territorial waters beyond the territorial sea (e.g. contiguous zone, exclusive economic zone, etc.) will not be considered \"within Israel.\"\n2. Iran must either (i) explicitly acknowledge having carried out the attack via its armed forces or intelligence operatives or (ii) carry it out in such a manner that credible sources unambiguously attribute it to Iran's armed forces or intelligence operatives.\n3. The attack must be kinetic, involving weaponry or physical force. Cyberattacks, even if resulting in fatalities, will not count towards the resolution of this question.\n4. The threshold of three fatalities must be reached within a 24-hour period. These fatalities do not need to occur at the same location; coordinated attacks on multiple targets or simultaneous assassinations attributed to Iran will meet this criterion.
