Israel may have just DESTROYED ITSELF… while Trump carries out WAR THEATER (BBN, June 23, 2025)
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Well, you are in for a surprise here because it turns out that Iran wasn't bombed in the way that Trump told us, but it appears that Trump has a strategic purpose for carrying out this theater.
And you're going to find out about that here.
So welcome to Brighteon Broadcast News for Monday, June 23rd, 2025.
I'm Mike Adams.
Thank you for joining me today.
If you missed my special coverage yesterday, then you should definitely go back and check that out, Brighteon Broadcast News.
It's on brighteon.com and I've posted it on Telegram and BrightTown.social, everywhere else, etc.
It basically just goes over the facts of what we were told happened by Trump and Rubio and others.
And then I began to question yesterday whether that's what really happened at all.
And I said that we really need to see satellite imagery of the morning after the bombing.
And now we have that.
We have it now.
So in fact, I want to show you that image right now.
This is the image from MAXAR satellite.
And as you can see, it's dated.
It's the Iran U.S. airstrike aftermath on the Fordo nuclear facility image taken June 22nd, which was Sunday.
And if you look sort of in the center of this image, a little bit above center, those are the tunnel entrances into the underground complex.
And because this is built on a mountain here, right, so you can't really see the z-axis of the mountain, how much it rises up.
But the tunnels are on the side of the mountain, near the base of the mountain.
And as you go into the mountain, of course, the amount of earth on top of you gets larger and larger and larger because the mountain is taller, obviously, as you go, you know, closer to the center of it, inside of it.
So it turns out that the mountain, I mean, I'm hearing different numbers, but I'm just going to say it's at least 100 meters thick, where the centrifuge equipment is located in the Fordo facility.
We've also learned that Fordo was largely evacuated because Iran was given a heads up by the United States that this attack was coming and that they were going to hit the nuclear facilities.
And Iran had plenty of time to move the enriched fuel out of these facilities, which it did.
And there are other images on other days, I don't even think I'm going to bother to show them to you, but take my word they're out there, of, well, June 20th and 21st, lots of trucks lined up outside the entrance to the facility, big rigs that were clearly carrying things out of the facility.
They were anticipating the bombing.
Now, back to the map here, or the satellite image from Maxar, the one large building that you see, sort of center left, that's an outdoor building that houses, for example, air conditioning equipment and things like that.
That wasn't even hit because it's easy to replace.
That's not a key part of the facility.
The strikes that took place achieved what you can see on the right side of this image, which is, it's labeled likely three munition entry holes.
You see them up top and you see three more holes at the bottom.
So what this indicates is that there were six munitions that hit this target.
So when Trump says, you know, we targeted Fordo and we successfully struck it, he's not wrong.
He's not wrong.
And they did successfully strike it.
Just as if I take an AR-15 rifle and I pick out a piece of dirt in the distance and I shoot the dirt, I can say, I successfully struck my intended target.
Okay, did the rifle round do anything to the dirt?
Nope.
Not really.
Just made a little crater, which is exactly what happened here.
So what you are looking at with the Fordo nuclear power facility is six multi-million dollar holes in the desert.
So nobody can spend more money on making holes in the desert than the United States.
Now, we were told that six bunker busters were dropped on this facility, but if you examine these images, you'll note that all six struck in different places.
And in order for bunker busters to really penetrate deeply, they have to go into the same crater over and over and over again, kind of, you know, sort of tunneling down from the surface.
And if they had succeeded in doing that, you would see a big chunk of the mountain missing.
You know, you would see landslides.
You would see massive craters, not these relatively small craters.
These, I don't know, they look like they might be eight to ten meters across based on a guess of the width of the roads and so on.
We can take a pretty accurate guess of the diameter of these.
They don't look that big.
In addition, the radial blast marks from these munitions, they don't look that big either.
And I will say for the record, I will absolutely defer my final conclusion on this to other weapons experts who have far more experience than I do in looking at military blast images, let's say.
And those would be people like Ted Postel, Scott Ritter, maybe Colonel Douglas McGregor, I'm sure, would have a lot more information than I do on this.
Maybe Tony Schaefer, others.
But my initial Impression as just you know a high IQ person who understands the laws of physics is that these were not bunker buster weapons that we did not drop bunker buster weapons on this mountain and it looks like what was actually dropped were something like maybe thousand pound bombs or two thousand pound bombs now I do believe that that you know the b2 stealth bombers flew in there and
dropped this I'm not dismissing that although there's no way for us to know for sure but let's say they did fly in there and they dropped these bombs they would have hit the mountain because it's kind of hard to miss it's a giant mountain so yeah you can hit it they didn't hit it in the same spot but they created a big theatrical you know a big boom big fireball big explosion they set some of the grass on fire which is something
that we actually saw in the remote viewing experiment that I've been running you saw the grass on fire and this the intended purpose of this appears to be what I'm calling a TFZ theater for Zionists theater for Zionists so I have I put out a detailed post on this and I want to point out a couple of things before
I read that post for you first remember that Trump announced that we're done and I think it was J.D. Vance who said we're not at war with Iran we're at war with Iran's nuclear program which is a weird thing to say but then Trump had announced already previous to that that we quote totally obliterated Iran's nuclear program and to that I say well awesome
does that mean we're done does that mean we're we're out of the war now does that mean that we will not be involved any longer in this war because if that's the case then Trump has actually pulled off a real world 5D chess move and I've even mocked that concept before but think about it if this is his intention if he sticks with this he has managed to pull the U.S. out of the war and he's managed to appease the Zionists
for their bloodthirsty demand for violence he dropped bombs clearly he dropped some some kind of bombs you know created big clouds big dust big booms you know big you know Fox News wave the American flag hurrah you know America right F yeah and so he got all that going and all the boomers who watch Fox News and they're all cheering you know for their fairy tale they think that the whole nuclear program has been destroyed and the Zionists are all super happy right now
but Trump didn't actually do any level of damage that would result in Iran retaliating against America not really I mean yeah you blow up some of the entrances you know you move some dirt around you make a lot of noise so you know you set some grass on fire so what that doesn't change anything I mean it doesn't degrade Iran's nuclear program that's for sure but it does allow Trump to say
to the Zionists I went to war for you I did what you wanted I destroyed Iran's nuclear program and America is done now we've done our job the rest is up to you so maybe I'm naive and I'm open to that possibility on this but I'm going to give Trump the benefit of the doubt for the moment unless contradictory information surfaces and
I'm going to say that this looks like not 100% certainty but it looks like this is actually a very clever move by Trump to get the U.S. out of the war and to just basically to step back and allow Iran and Israel to just keep fighting it out between each other with kinetic weapons, with missiles.
And you know who wins that war?
It's Iran, not Israel.
If it becomes a war of attrition where everybody's trading missiles with each other, Israel loses first by far.
In fact, it struck me as interesting that right after this bombing, Netanyahu went on TV and he praised America.
God bless America.
And he said, now is the time for peace.
Like, right after we just bombed you, you don't get to retaliate, but now is the time for peace.
Well, why did Netanyahu say now is the time for peace?
Because Israel is about to collapse.
That's why Netanyahu is desperate for peace now because Israel can't survive much longer at the current pace of the missile destruction of Israel.
That's why.
That's why Netanyahu wants peace.
But if Trump has a desire to get us out of this war and then to focus domestically and also to keep MAGA, to prevent MAGA from splitting, then this was the genius way to do it.
Trump may have just saved his own political future if he sticks to this and does not allow us to get dragged back into the war.
Now, of course, of course, Israel wants to drag us back into the war.
So what is Israel doing?
Well, they are no doubt planning on bombing a U.S. base, maybe in Bahrain or somewhere else, and then blaming Iran to try to get the U.S. public behind them.
And that's a very real risk.
Wouldn't be the first time Israel pulled a false flag.
In fact, they seem to do it on a regular basis.
So from the tweet I sent out earlier, I said, it looks like Trump pretended to destroy Fordo with a grand theatrical show of force, but in the end, the USA just punched very expensive holes in the side of a mountain And nothing more.
We have also since learned that Iran was warned in advance that this attack was coming and that it would be limited to these facilities, giving Iran plenty of time to evacuate and prepare.
Now, after announcing Iran's nuclear program is obliterated, Trump can attempt to exit the conflict and tell Israel something like, quote, we did our part, we destroyed the nuclear program, and the rest is up to you.
Watch for Israel to try to now claim that the U.S. bombing was a failure and that Iran's nuclear program is still intact and to try to drag the U.S. back into more war.
Because for Israel, this was always about attempting the complete destruction of Iran, not merely Iran's nuclear program.
Okay?
And then I ended with this.
I said, for the record, if Trump keeps us out of this conflict from here forward, I wholly support that.
And Trump may indeed salvage his support base.
And he might even avoid Iran attacking U.S. assets in retaliation.
To his credit, what Trump did here, now in retrospect with the satellite analysis, was theatrical de-escalation while throwing a bone to the Zionists who demand violence and death.
Okay, now there's something else that you need to know about this.
That is that the Trump administration told Iran before these strikes that the strikes were coming on the three nuclear sites and that it would be a one-off attack.
And this is a tweet from Mohammed Al-Shabani.
High-ranking Iranian source tells Ahmwaj media that Trump team gave advance notice of bombings of nuclear sites and insisted they're intended as one-off signs of Trump seeking repeat of January 2020, which was the Soleimani killing followed by a symbolic Iranian retaliation.
Now, this is very interesting because this also happened, what was it?
Was it a few months back?
When Israel had assassinated another leader in Tehran and also Nasrallah, I believe in Beirut.
And then Iran launched a symbolic retaliation attack of basically hundreds of drones in the sky.
But Iran gave Israel something like an eight-hour heads up.
It's like, hey, everybody get out of the way.
We're going to do a symbolic strike and that's the end of it.
And then everybody claimed victory and that de-escalated that situation.
So you got to understand that right now, this is all about the information warfare space.
It doesn't really matter what happened physically in 3D space on the ground in reality.
What happens is what people believe took place.
So right now, the people of Israel believe that they just won.
Woo!
Yeah.
All right.
The people of America who are dumb enough to watch Fox News, they also think they won.
Woohoo!
But what Iran knows is that they didn't lose anything in this bombing.
Trump carried out this theatrical display.
But Iran must retaliate somehow in order to appease the Iranian people.
Yeah!
So what is Iran going to do?
Well, it's very clear, actually.
This is very clear.
I don't need remote viewing to tell you this.
Iran is going to carry out a symbolic attack on a U.S. military asset without killing any soldiers.
At least that's what they will attempt to do.
So right now, the U.S. is evacuating military bases around the Middle East to make sure there are no personnel there.
And I wouldn't be surprised if there's literally a backroom deal between Trump and Iran.
A backroom deal to say, okay, we will evacuate a base out in the middle of Iraq somewhere.
And then you guys can attack it and overrun it and burn it down.
Just don't kill any American soldiers at all.
But you can destroy the base and then your people will be happy.
And they can see those videos all over the internet.
Yay, we're burning down, you know, we're burning down America.
The great Satan is burning, you know, whatever.
So those people can be happy.
And then all the parties think they won.
Israel thinks they won.
The Americans think they won.
The Zionists think they won.
They're all cheering.
Yay, death, destruction.
Woo!
Like we're Zionists.
We love it.
And then the Iranians can all act like they're winning too, or they can believe it.
They're like, yeah, we destroyed the American base.
This is the art of theatrical de-escalation.
And as people like Scott Ritter will tell you, this is a very delicate art and it requires back-channel communications.
And basically, they've turned the world into a giant stage and they are carrying out military theatrics in order to shape the perceptions of the people on this grand stage without actually destroying each other or starting a nuclear war.
At least that's one interpretation of this.
Now, Israel doesn't want to engage in just theater.
It's very clear to me.
Israel literally wants to completely destroy Iran.
What I'm saying is that this is Trump and Iran probably negotiated through, let's say, Oman, someplace like that, some neutral third party in the region to set this up, to carry this out so that America can extricate itself from this war, but yet can tell the Zionists we did everything we could.
That's what this looks like to me.
Now, from Amwaj.media, here it is, speaking on condition of anonymity, a high-ranking Iranian political source confirmed that the Trump administration on June 21st conveyed That it did not seek an all-out confrontation and only intended to strike the Fordo, Isfahan, and Natan's nuclear sites.
Importantly, the senior source also confirmed that the targeted sites were evacuated, with most of Iran's stockpile of enriched uranium kept in secure locations.
Given that Iran is said to have received prior notice, along with a private communication from the U.S., that it does not seek a broader conflict, it could be that Trump seeks a repeat of the events of January 2020, which entailed a largely symbolic Iranian ballistic missile attack on American bases in Iraq over Trump's authorization of the assassination of the then Quds force commander Qasem Soleimani.
And then CBS News is also reporting the following.
Quote, the U.S. reached out to Iran diplomatically on Saturday to say the strikes are all the U.S. plans and that regime change efforts are not planned, the sources said.
Earlier this week, multiple U.S. officials told CBS News that Mr. Trump, notice they don't even call him president, Mr. Trump opposed an Israeli plan to kill Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran's supreme leader.
So this is two different sources that are reporting this.
So my take on all of this is that if Iran avoids killing U.S. soldiers or sailors, then Trump intends to stay out of this for the time being.
And it gives Trump lots of reasons to say no to Israel as Israel keeps demanding more and more assistance from the U.S. and demands that the U.S. destroy Iran.
So Israel is now more isolated than ever after this bombing.
Israel is more on its own.
Now, of course, the U.S. will continue to supply weapons and money.
That will continue up until the very end of Israel, which appears to be inevitable at this point.
The path that Israel is on is not sustainable.
But up to the last day, yeah, America will send money, but, you know, money doesn't stop Iran's ballistic missiles from striking Tel Aviv, it turns out.
All the money in the world can't make the Iron Dome work.
The Iron Dome is shattered.
It does not function.
Israel has no defenses against the hypersonic missiles, against even the high-speed ballistic missiles, which may or may not be considered hypersonic.
But also Israel will have no defenses when it runs out of interceptors.
And the U.S. can't ship interceptors that it doesn't have, and the U.S. can't make interceptors at anywhere near the rate that Israel is using them up.
So it's only a matter of time before Israel cannot shoot anything out of the sky that's incoming.
Meanwhile, they're able to manufacture reportedly at least 600 missiles a month.
So again, 20, 25, 30 missiles a day.
Iran can continue to do that forever.
On top of the stockpile they currently have, which is estimated to be something like 28,000 ballistic missiles.
That's a lot of missiles.
That's a mountain of missiles.
And so Iran will never run out of these missiles because they can keep making them.
And Iran is a very large industrial country, advanced technology, advanced engineers, over 90 million people, a flourishing economy, modern technology, all of it.
Meanwhile, Israel, it's crumbling.
Its ports are no longer functional.
Refineries are all blown up.
Its financial centers have been hit by missiles.
Its people are fleeing.
Its credit rating continues to be downgraded.
Israel is on a path of total self-destruction.
While Iran is looking a lot like Russia right now in the sense that Iran is able to just keep manufacturing missiles, just like Russia.
Since 2022, Russia has shown that it can keep making artillery shells.
It can keep making missiles.
I remember being told by some military folks in the summer of 2022 that Russia had run out of missiles.
But that was just NATO disinformation, of course.
Russia will never run out of missiles because it's making them every day.
Same thing with Iran.
Iran is making new missiles every day, and they're all, well, not all, but more and more are getting through.
And soon, nearly all of them will get through the Iron Dome as Israel runs out of interceptors.
All right.
So if this war stays kinetic, non-nuclear, then it's very clear to me that Israel ceases to exist, which is kind of karmic given that Israel initiated this surprise attack on Iran to try to destroy Iran.
But it turns out that Israel itself is likely to be the country that's destroyed.
Now, I posted the following.
I said, Iran is now going to be given nuclear weapons by at least one other country, maybe two.
All right, so Iran surviving this joint U.S.-Israel attack has given Iran tremendous credibility in the international community of what's sometimes called the East or the Global South.
Basically, it's all the nations that are the strategic enemies of America.
You know, China, Russia, North Korea.
Maybe you could put Pakistan on that list as well.
As I say in my quote, one or two of these countries are going to give Iran nuclear weapons.
Continuing from my post, likely candidates include Russia, North Korea, and Pakistan.
Iran will soon announce, this is my prediction, Iran will soon announce That it is a nuclear-armed nation.
It will withdraw from the NPT, that's the non-proliferation treaty, and begin rapid development of nuclear weapons on its own, growing its nuclear stockpiles.
This is the natural organic result of Israel's surprise attack and America's complicity in achieving deadly deceptions surrounding so-called negotiations with Iran.
These events have congealed the idea within Iran that rapidly pursuing nuclear weapons is the only way to survive since there is no appeasement with the West.
This is almost certainly why the President of Iran has reportedly just resigned.
You may not have heard that, but it's being reported the president resigned, which is a different position than the Supreme Leader, of course.
This is more of a diplomatic, somewhat executive position.
So the President of Iran has reportedly resigned, citing policy differences with leadership, almost certainly over nuclear weapons development.
Once Iran announces it is a nuclear-armed nation, Israel will either commit nuclear suicide with its Samsung option, or it will be destroyed through kinetic attrition and economic devastation as America's Zionists cry Holocaust.
In other words, I say, Trump's theatrical fake bombing of Iran, which did not destroy Fordo and did almost no infrastructure damage.
And by the way, I'm not saying, when I say fake bombing, I'm not saying that no bombs were dropped.
I'm just saying it wasn't bunker busters.
So there's a theatrical aspect to this.
Has seemingly set into motion a series of events that will allow Israel to continue destroying itself.
Given Israel's failed iron dome, lack of interceptor munitions, collapsing credit rating, non-functional ports, destroyed fuel refineries, and the mass fleeing of its own citizens from the country, it is increasingly difficult to see how Israel avoids a total collapse scenario, which would of course result in the neutering of the most destabilizing force in the Middle East since 1948.
And it might actually set a bunch of U.S. senators free to start putting America first.
Yeah, because I'm saying if Israel collapses, then the Epstein-file blackmail can't be held over the heads of U.S. senators and members of Congress any longer.
Hey, maybe Ted Cruz might start to put Texas first.
Who knows?
Now, there's one more factor in all of this that's highly relevant.
Another way that Iran can retaliate without killing U.S. soldiers is that they can close the Strait of Hormuz, which we have talked about many times.
And over the weekend, the parliament of Iran voted unanimously to close the Strait of Hormuz.
Now, apparently there's some other Security Council within Iran that now has to give it final approval.
So it's not a certainty that it will be closed, but it's possible.
And by closing it, in case you're wondering, how do they close the canal?
Well, it's very easy to close it.
All you have to do is throw a bunch of sea mines into the strait.
It's not a canal.
It's a straight.
You just float 100 mines in there and you just tell the world, hey, we've mined the strait.
Nobody come in here unless you want to be all blowed up.
And it's a very narrow strait.
I've mentioned before the sea lanes through which the ships pass is only, I believe it's only one kilometer wide.
So 20% of the world's oil and almost a third of the world's natural gas flows through a channel that's only one kilometer wide.
Think about that.
That's called a choke point.
And it looks like it's going to get shut off.
Now, my guess is that Iran will shut this off temporarily.
I don't know how long that'll last.
It might be only a few days.
But I believe that Iran has to do this symbolically to appease their own people to, you know, to be able to cheer.
Like, we did something.
You know, we hurt them, right?
We hurt them back.
Because let's face it here, you know, Iran was viciously attacked by the West.
And just for the record, what Trump did to Iran was completely lawless and unconstitutional and frankly a war crime.
I mean, Trump violated the 1973 War Powers Act.
He did not get congressional approval.
And yes, bombing another country is an act of war.
Trump did not get the UN Security Council resolution, as even Bush did back in the day with the Gulf War.
Trump didn't get that.
There is no internal legal justification for bombing Iran.
And what you keep hearing on Fox News and elsewhere that we cannot allow Iran to have nuclear weapons.
Well, that's a completely lawless statement that has no legal justification under the UN Charter or any international rules of law.
In fact, the UN Charter, which the U.S. largely authored, says that every country has the right to pursue domestic nuclear power.
And furthermore, Iran has been, they signed on to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, the NPT, and Iran has allowed all these years IAEA inspectors at all of its facilities.
And the IAEA inspectors have also said that there was no justification for the bombing of Iran because there's no evidence that Iran is actively pursuing nuclear weapons at its nuclear sites.
So Trump literally has no legal justification for this, and what he did was unconstitutional, a violation of U.S. law, a violation of international law, and a war crime on top of that.
But all that said, it might have been the way, at least maybe this is the justification in Trump's own mind, that this might have been the way to extricate The United States from this war and sort of let Israel just fight the rest of the war with Iran on its own, largely.
So, you know, it's a complicated situation.
It's a mixed bag.
You know, clearly it was a violation of law, but it might have been the least bad option among a selection of very bad options, possibly.
I don't know.
We'll have to see where this goes.
Now, if Trump drags us back into the war or he allows Netanyahu to drag us back in, then all bets are off.
And then it just turns out there's going to be another 10-year war, another Vietnam, but in the Middle East this time.
And I hope and pray that's not where this goes.
But why would Trump have his military engage in really like fake bunker buster bombing?
Because these clearly weren't bunker busters.
Why would he do that and then announce that it's a total success and that the enemy, let's see, the nuclear facilities have been completely destroyed.
Here's Pete Hegseff, the Secretary of Defense, who's completely unqualified to be Secretary of Defense.
He put out the following.
He said, last night we carried out precision strikes on three Iranian nuclear facilities.
And then check out this sentence because it sounds like the way Trump talks.
Quote, the operation against Iran was big and beautiful, bold and brilliant.
The strikes were amazingly and stunningly successful.
Okay?
So that's not a military statement.
That's just, what do you call that?
Just braggadocious bullshit.
Doesn't mean anything.
It was big and beautiful.
Okay, whatever.
So are fireworks on the 4th of July, you know.
He said, we managed to destroy the Iranian nuclear program.
Iran's nuclear ambitions have been eliminated.
Okay, so that's the official position of the Pentagon and Trump right now.
Of course, Trump said it has been totally obliterated, whereas Hagseth says it has been eliminated.
But they're practically synonymous.
So the point is clear here.
The point is that the position of Trump and the Pentagon is that we have completely eliminated Iran's nuclear program.
Therefore, there's no point for further bombing of Iran by America.
So think about this.
If the aim is to get us out of this war, it's kind of genius.
At the same time, if this war, if we get dragged back into this and we start bombing Iran again, then the question has to be, well, wait a second.
What are we doing now?
Because I thought you said we're not at war with Iran.
We're at war with Iran's nuclear program.
And both Hegset and Trump have declared that we completely destroyed the nuclear program.
So what are we bombing now for?
You know, if that happens, which I hope and pray it doesn't.
So kind of like what I mentioned yesterday, I was already on this path of conclusions yesterday, but the satellite images today just really confirmed it.
The satellite images show, I mean, look, I was expecting, I was going to see the satellite images and there would be like the top half of this mountain would be gone.
It's like there's a giant freaking, like, you know, a hundred meter wide section of the mountain is just blown to smithereens or something.
You know, I was expecting there would be like radiation alerts in the area, that there would be, you know, rubble blown from underneath out to the surface and all over the place.
There would be a giant gaping hole in the side of the mountain.
Now, you might say, well, that's not how bunker busters work.
They're more penetrators.
Okay, fine.
But we've seen images of penetrators in the past, and they made, you know, even in World War II, there were different penetrator type of bombs created that were not quite as big as the current one, but still very large.
And they left much larger holes in the ground.
And in World War II, they didn't even have to penetrate the extremely highly engineered concrete that now exists that Iran has no doubt been using.
An extraordinary feat of concrete engineering with, what did Ted Postel say, non-monolithic structures embedded in the concrete at different angles that deflect the weapon and deflect the blast of the weapon?
Yeah.
So the idea that you could actually blow away this mountain and blow away this facility with these bunker busters, you know, it appears to be nonsense.
And I'm even questioning whether bunker busters were dropped at all.
So I suppose that does leave open the possibility that maybe if they actually use bunker busters in the future, it could do a lot more damage than what we're seeing here.
Or if they did use bunker busters here, I'm not that impressed with what they do versus a mountain.
Now, I have no doubt that a bunker buster would completely destroy a typical bunker that's like 10 meters below the ground and has three feet of concrete for a roof or something.
Yeah, of course, it's going to blow that to smithereens, but that's not what we're talking about here.
We're talking about a mountain of earth that's an estimated 100 meters thick overall.
And then under that is some thickness of engineered concrete with these advanced features that can deflect blasts, etc.
So If bunker busters were used, they failed.
And there's got to be a bunch of engineers right now.
I don't even know which company made that.
Was it like Raytheon or somebody?
A lot of engineers must be going back to the drawing board saying, what happened?
How come this didn't really achieve the damage that we claimed it would?
Well, back to the drawing board for you.
It turns out that all your paper math doesn't match real-world physics very often.
That's what we're looking at here.
All right, so in summary, what I'm expecting here is the following.
I'm expecting that Iran will close the Strait of Hormuz for some period of time.
It might be as short as a day, but there has to be a symbolic closure as a demonstration of authority over the Strait.
And also as a negotiation tactic for whatever talks might be coming up to demonstrate that they can close it.
Secondly, I'm expecting through back channels, the U.S. will sacrifice one of its smaller military bases in the region, and it will allow probably Iraqi rebels to attack and overrun and destroy that base as long as there are no personnel killed in the process.
And for that very reason, that base is probably being evacuated right now, and there's probably a signal being sent to Iran to say, okay, here's the base that you can attack.
You know, go ahead and launch big-ass missiles, big-ass missiles at this base and blow it up and set it on fire and have all your people roll in there with their cameras rolling and chanting and cheering and everything's awesome.
And then your people will be happy.
Okay?
And from the U.S. point of view, who cares about losing some base?
Probably some senator will get another $10 million kickback on the contract to rebuild the base.
So they all win anyway.
They're all getting paid to rebuild it.
So nobody cares that the base would be lost.
And then the other thing I'm anticipating coming up soon, perhaps as early as today, but certainly this week, is that you'll start to hear the Zionists, as soon as they're done with all their cheering and dancing, you know, dancing Israelis is a thing.
It wasn't just 9-11, other times as well.
As soon as the Israelis are done dancing and they come to their senses, they'll be like, wait a second.
And they start looking at the satellite images.
They're like, Fordo isn't gone.
It's still there.
And at that point, you're going to hear Netanyahu saying something like, it was not fully destroyed and we need the U.S. to bomb it again.
So that's where this is going.
And you're going to start to see now friction between Netanyahu and Trump, where I believe, at least based on the current trajectory, Trump is saying, I want to get us out of this war.
And Israel is going to be saying, I want to drag America back into it.
And the way Israel does that is to say, basically to point the finger at America and say, your bombing mission failed.
And America's not going to like to hear that because everybody who watches Fox News is all convinced that we kicked ass, we did it.
And you're going to see a lot more people turn against Israel when Netanyahu starts to point the finger at the U.S. and say, you failed to do your job.
People are going to quote Hegseth and Trump and say, no, it's totally obliterated.
We completely destroyed the nuclear facilities.
It's been eliminated.
Our job is done.
That's going to put Netanyahu in a very difficult spot where he has to either call Trump's bluff and actually publicly disclose that Trump engaged in military theater, or he has to just try to fight Iran on his own, which is a losing proposition.
So Trump has actually managed to put Israel in a very, very difficult spot here with this.
And the carrying out of this plan, if indeed if I'm right about this, if this is Trump's plan, requires that Iran hold itself and exercise discipline and that Iran does not kill U.S. soldiers and does not attack live U.S. targets like aircraft carriers or ships or bases with soldiers in them.
Or also that Iran does not activate terror cells in the United States.
So that could be another false flag situation where Israel comes into the U.S. and starts blowing up power grid substations or something and blaming Iran.
So watch for that possibility as well.
But the bottom line is my assessment, which surprises even me, I did not expect to have this assessment, but I'm going off the data and the satellite imagery.
My assessment is that we are in much better shape than I thought in terms of a de-escalation theatrical event here and that the screws are being tightened on Israel and that Trump has given us a path to remove ourselves from this conflict in terms of direct involvement.
Of course, we'll always have indirect involvement with money and weapons to Israel, but possibly no more direct involvement, and that is a huge deal.
So that's my assessment for now.
Of course, it's subject to change, you know, depending on new information.
Obviously, this is a very fluid situation, so everything could change tomorrow.
Just stay tuned.
We'll see.
All right, now let's pivot here, and let me bring in some additional context.
Everything that I just covered assumes that, number one, Trump is wanting to pull us out of the war.
It's actually assuming that Trump is trying to distance himself from Israel.
And that's a pretty big assumption, and it may not be true.
So I just want to be clear That the whole podcast so far assumes that Trump is in control, that he's a military genius, that he's threading the needle, that he's trying to get the U.S. out of the war, etc.
Okay?
The alternative explanation to that would be along the lines of people saying, oh, Trump's an idiot.
He's just a Zionist sellout.
His military is incompetent.
There is no 5D chess.
It's just 2D stupidity, etc., etc.
And I can't categorically refute that possibility as well.
I mean, both of these possibilities exist.
It's just that I have a hard time.
Well, let me put it this way.
What we know for sure from the satellite images is that even if there were bunker busters dropped on Fordo, they were not effective.
They were not dropped into the same craters.
The accuracy wasn't there.
The effectiveness wasn't there.
And I can't imagine Trump being told by his military that it was a huge success, that we completely destroyed them.
I can't, well, you know what?
Let me correct myself.
Actually, I can imagine that.
Maybe they have Trump just in a room and they're just feeding them garbage.
And maybe they told him we destroyed it.
And maybe he believes it because, you know, he's not checking Twitter.
He's not checking independent media.
So, yeah, I guess actually there is a scenario where Trump believes whatever the military is telling him and he's not in control and he's not a 5D genius and he's totally loyal to Israel and he's not trying to get the U.S. out of the war.
Maybe he's trying to take us into a full-blown war with Iran.
So that scenario does exist.
Okay.
And right now, I think we don't have, at least as far as I can tell, we don't have enough information to know with high confidence which one of those explanations is actually true at the moment, which is a little bit scary.
Now, one of the analysts that I respect the most on this is Colonel Douglas McGregor.
And I've interviewed Colonel McGregor, I think, a couple of times.
I'll invite him back on as well.
But he was interviewed by George Galloway, who's also, I think, an extraordinary independent media analyst.
And, you know, the mother of all talk shows is that's what he runs.
And all around, you know, very sharp guy, George Galloway is.
But Colonel Douglas McGregor said something on his show that is rather extraordinary.
He said, well, you know what?
I'm going to let you hear it from him because it involves Israel and the idea that Israel doesn't have long left to exist.
I'll play that in a second.
And then I also have a new music video for you.
It's the song I played for you last week, but we have a brand new music video that we've just completed, which is the vastly improved music video.
So I'd love to play that for you.
And it's called, We're Running Out of Time.
But first, we have this week, I believe starting today, we have storable food specials at our store, healthrangerstore.com slash clean food.
That will get you to our mix and match specials.
And then also healthrangerstore.com slash food supply.
That will get you to a different special that offers, I think it's 195-day supply of food for one person.
And you could pick up multiple kits if you want to cover more time or more people.
And this is the first time that we packaged our food supplies, which are all certified organic, laboratory tested, ultra-clean.
And there are not meats in these foods, just to be clear.
There are products that have, such as our macaroni and cheese, that has cream, you know, real cream, real organic cheese, real organic butter, etc.
But we don't have any meats in these products because meat is not something that we choose to handle.
And, you know, there are supply chain reasons for that.
Animal, you know, I'm a humanitarian and I also love animals and I don't like the way animals are treated in the food supply, etc.
So I mean, that's a different discussion.
But these products are non-meat items, but they are very nutritious, high-density nutrition.
Some of them are superfoods, etc.
You can check them out at healthrangerstore.com slash clean food, all one word, or slash food supply.
One of those.
And if you don't see it yet, just wait an hour and try again because we're just now getting those online probably today as this is getting published.
So it may be delayed an hour or two hours or even three hours.
Just try again.
We do anticipate very, very high demand because of the situation in the Middle East and what might happen domestically.
A lot of people are concerned.
A lot of people want to shore up their food supplies.
I will say this.
Because our supplies don't have meat in them, I do encourage you to augment them with additional items that actually don't store very well.
And that would be things like, let's say, you know, olive oil or avocado oil or fresh sticks of butter or even lard, believe it or not.
You add lard to, let's say, vegetarian chili and all of a sudden the chili tastes better.
So, you know, whatever you want to augment your diet with, be sure to store that up separately because our kits don't contain things like that that could go rancid very quickly or things that require refrigeration.
But where our kits are really strong is in, you know, for example, the number 10 cans have the freeze-dried fruits and superfoods and micro-algae and miso soup and, you know, all kinds of things like that, plus nutritional supplements.
Just make sure you add additional items to your food supply.
All right, with that, I'm going to play a few minutes for you here of Colonel Douglas McGregor speaking just a few hours ago with George Galloway.
And Colonel McGregor said something extraordinary.
Here we go.
Well, I tend to agree with you, but there are two things that are now very clear.
Number one is that Iran is going to double down on its war with Israel.
In fact, within the next two weeks, I'd be surprised if Israel is not entirely destroyed.
Okay, so we're going to pause it right there.
Did you hear what Colonel McGregor just said?
He said he would be surprised if Israel is not entirely destroyed within, did he say, a couple of weeks?
A couple of two weeks?
Wow.
Look, I think what he's speaking to is the fact that right now, Iran has missile dominance.
I mean, let's be clear.
Iran has missile dominance.
Iran's missiles are penetrating the failed Iron Dome.
Missiles are hitting these critical targets across Israel, including military buildings, all kinds of targets in Tel Aviv, but also other military targets, refineries, ports, etc.
infrastructure targets, financial targets, and some of the Mossad building or headquarters types of targets.
And Israel appears to be powerless to stop this, absolutely powerless to stop this.
And frankly, so does the United States.
So let's assume that the U.S. flew the stealth bombers into Iran.
Let's just, let's believe, you know, the claims for a moment here.
Let's assume they flew them in and they dropped the bunker busters and they made loud explosions on that mountain.
Fordow.
Fordo.
Yeah, I guess it's Fordo.
They filled the sky with rocks and fire, whatever.
And then the bombers flew away.
Trump announces the biggest, the most beautiful, best success ever, total annihilation.
Hegseth says, completely eliminated, totally destroyed.
And then two hours later, Iran just rolls trucks out of buildings and launches more ballistic missiles.
And then a few minutes later, those missiles hit Israel as has been happening.
So it's like Iran is saying to Trump and saying to the Pentagon and saying to Israel, you know, we laugh at your bunker busters because that entire bombing campaign and all your high-tech stealth bombers and, you know, all your super penetrating munitions and everything doesn't stop the missiles from flying, does it?
It doesn't.
So Colonel McGregor brings up a very important question here.
And, you know, I don't see Israel being destroyed within two weeks, you know, for the record, but I do see Israel being severely damaged over the next couple of weeks.
And perhaps what McGregor meant, I mean, I'm just guessing, is that Israel could be completely debilitated within two weeks.
And that is indeed a very reasonable projection of current events.
But Israel could be destroyed within a matter of months or years, even maybe one year, or maybe Israel ceases to exist by Christmas of this year.
Because it's now increasingly difficult to see a scenario where Israel stays alive.
Being that the whole world now knows that Israel is a genocidal nation run by lunatic war criminals in possession of illegal nuclear weapons, a nation that bombs food aid workers and hospitals, slaughters women and children,
shoots doctors, etc., a nation that engages in surprise attacks on its neighbors, a nation that has a Greater Israel map that requires the mass slaughter of millions of innocent civilians all around the region in Iraq, in Lebanon, in Jordan for that matter, even in southern Turkey, etc.
The entire world, except for the brainwashed Western people, the entire world knows that Israel is the single most dangerous force on the planet right now because it's so insanely violent, filled with bloodlust, run by a satanic death cult, an apocalyptic cult of end times Zionist lunatics.
The whole world sees this.
And at the same time, the entire Eastern world sees that they can't let Iran be destroyed.
They can't.
If Iran is destroyed or overthrown, or if there's a revolution there, a regime change, then China and Russia are in dire straits at that point.
So they will do everything to support Iran, including handing Iran nuclear weapons that are necessary for Iran to defend itself.
And remember how that's been the mantra of the Israel supporters this entire time.
You've heard it over and over again.
Israel has a right to defend itself, they say, while they're bombing hospitals and murdering children and women in Gaza.
They say Israel has a right to defend itself.
Well, if Israel has a right to defend itself, then most of the world is going to argue that Iran also has a right to defend itself against Israel and even against the United States.
So this attack by the U.S., this surprise attack following Israel's surprise attack, has changed the future, as Netanyahu actually indicated.
Yeah, it has changed the future.
It's charted a new course for humanity.
But as Colonel Douglas McGregor says, that new future for Humanity probably has no Israel in it.
Very soon, there will be no Israel if Israel stays on this current path.
Netanyahu may be the person who brings Israel to its knees and actually destroys the country.
And then you're going to have the issue of all of these Israeli refugees, which is already happening.
They're fleeing.
They're fleeing to Cyprus.
They're fleeing to America.
Some are fleeing back to Russia.
There's a lot of sort of dual citizen Russian Israelis.
Some are fleeing to European countries, etc.
Well, if Israel is really destroyed with bombardment or even nuclear weapons, and let's say you have a million refugees of Israelis that have to flee Israel because, I don't know, it's radioactive or something, who's going to take them in?
Because in 1948, the Palestinians took them in.
Feeling sorry for them after World War II, the Palestinians took them in and they offered them, you know, a spare bedroom and here's a meal and here's some shelter.
We feel sorry for you.
You know, you went through the Holocaust.
The Palestinians welcomed the European Jews.
And what did the European Jews do in return to the Palestinians?
Of course, they murdered them.
They murdered them and they stole their homes and they stole their land and they continued to slaughter them and to commit genocide against them.
Candace Owens was just talking about this the other day, the actual history of 1948, the Nakba and the years after, when Israel kept saying, we have the right of self-defense and they just kept murdering and slaughtering and expanding and expanding, taking more land and saying, well, we had to.
We had to defend ourselves.
That's the way Israel has been operating this entire time.
Well, which country is dumb enough to take in a Trojan horse of Zionists that have a history of murdering you when you offer them aid?
Seriously, which country is going to do that?
Nobody.
And all over the world, the Israelis are absolutely despised because of what has happened since October 7th.
They are absolutely despised.
No one will take them in.
Maybe they'll wander the desert for 40 years again.
I mean, they put themselves in this situation because of their extreme cruelty, their inhumanity, their immorality, their violation of God's laws and the teachings of Jesus, etc.
So let's continue with Colonel McGregor.
Gosh, I only played like 10 seconds.
So let's continue because he's got a lot more to say.
Check this out.
Secondly, Iran is receiving and will continue to receive enormous amounts of aid and support, particularly from Russia and China.
Three, the Iranians have now collectively decided to close the Straits of Hormuz.
There are 50 oil tankers sitting in the Gulf, packed or filled with oil, ready to transport through the Straits of Hormuz.
They're not going to move.
They're going to sit there.
They are now hostage to the closed straits.
What are we in the United States going to do about that?
Well, frankly, we don't draw on the oil from the Gulf for the most part.
It's not going to make much difference to us, at least in the short run.
But this is going to have a terrible impact on the rest of the world.
There has been no thinking, once again, about the long-term strategic consequences.
There was no thinking about, is this the right way to achieve the aim?
Because if you're an Iranian right now, you're going to do everything in your power to build a nuclear weapon.
In fact, I would argue that there will be countries all over the world that will now build nuclear weapons because they don't want to be visited by the United States Armed Forces in the middle of the night.
We are the threat.
We are the rogue state supporting the other rogue state, Israel.
So you hear what Colonel McGregor just said there, that we are the rogue state, that it's the U.S. Empire, he's saying, that is the bully on the world stage, and Israel makes it even worse.
And what McGregor is talking about there is how these events will, of course, incentivize Iran and other nations to massively accelerate their efforts to acquire nuclear weapons.
So this is the end of non-proliferation.
This is the beginning of a world where just about every nation will have nuclear weapons.
And, you know, Israel put us on this path and Trump went along with it to this extent and drove the whole situation to this point.
Now, is the world safer or more dangerous if more countries have nuclear weapons?
Well, you know, obviously in the case of the Middle East, it would be safer if Israel gave up its illegal nuclear weapons.
But that's very unlikely to happen because Israel doesn't even acknowledge that it has them, although everybody knows it does.
So Iran would be correct to say in any upcoming diplomatic negotiations that Israel should give up its nuclear weapons first.
Israel should be subjected to IAEA investigations or inspections.
Israel should sign the non-proliferation treaty.
If Israel refuses to do that, then we refuse to do that.
And that's when Iran will probably announce that we now have nuclear weapons.
We've been given nuclear weapons by a friendly state.
We have X number of warheads, and we are now prepared to strike Tel Aviv if Israel doesn't completely cease all hostilities.
And maybe, maybe Iran's at the point where they just say, look, we're just going to keep pounding Israel with non-nuclear weapons until Israel's gone.
And if Israel launches a nuke, then we're going to nuke the entire country.
That's probably, I mean, that's a likely outcome of this.
And Israel will cease to exist over a period of time as practically every building that's standing is destroyed by Iran.
In other words, Iran can turn Israel into Gaza.
You know, mega, M-I-G-A, make Israel Gaza again.
I'm hearing that more and more out there.
And that's where this is headed.
Now, something interesting popped up from Pete Hegseth, the Defense Secretary, while I was recording this.
I saw this, and it confirms that the White House has a back channel to Iran.
And I want to read this for you first.
Hegseth says, quote, I can only confirm that there are both public and private messages being directly delivered to the Iranians in multiple channels, giving them every opportunity to come to the table.
They understand precisely what the American position is, precisely what steps they can take to allow for peace, and we hope they do so.
So this is Pete Hegseth confirming that they actually have back channel communications with Iran.
Now, whether that means they're cooperating to carry out satellite theater or, you know, war theater for de-escalation, we can't be sure.
But that's an interesting confirmation right there that there is a back channel.
Now, we're going to continue with Colonel McGregor.
Let's see what else he has to say.
And then finally, no mention is being made in this country in any way, shape, or form of what's happening in Gaza.
There's a complete failure to understand that Gaza is the catalyst for the larger war that's now going to begin against Israel.
Every Muslim country is going to come on board against Israel, along with Russia, along with China.
I'd be surprised if Mr. Putin doesn't make it very clear to Mr. Netanyahu that if he contemplates using a nuclear weapon, he needs to understand something.
If you do this, if you use a nuclear weapon against Iran or anyone in the Middle East, we will use a nuclear weapon against you.
I'd be very surprised if he has not already said that.
We don't understand what we've walked into because we're not informed.
We still think this is 1991.
Listen to the rhetoric.
I'm ready for peace now.
We've made our point.
We hope the Iranians understand us and will make peace.
Have you lost your mind?
The war is now just beginning.
So there you go.
The war is just beginning.
The war is just beginning.
He may be right.
I mean, clearly the war is just beginning between Israel and Iran.
I just hope that America can pull itself out of this war.
I hope that Trump is being the 5D chess Trump and he has this super intelligent plan to get us out of this.
But maybe I'm just being too naive.
Maybe it's just sheer, you know, it's just all stupidity and incompetence.
Who knows?
I guess we're going to find out.
But here's the thing.
So the Strait of Hormuz, which McGregor mentioned, and remember that Michael Jan and I have been talking about the Strait of Hormuz for a couple of years now, because we always talk about the straits, you know, the key choke points around the world, like the Strait of Malacca, for example, the Suez Canal, the Panama Canal.
And there are channels up near Greenland that are also really, really critical for sea lanes.
The Strait of Hormuz, as I mentioned earlier, is apparently about to be just shut off.
There's another thing besides energy that you need to know about that comes from Iran that's important to the world, and that is urea.
So urea is the basis for, of course, a lot of nitrogenous fertilizers.
And Iran is, I don't know if it's the largest exporter, it's certainly one of the largest exporters in the world.
Let me do an AI query on that and see if I can bring that up.
Okay, I pulled that up.
It says Russia is the largest exporter.
The U.S. is also an exporter, Uzbekistan, and then Iran doesn't give me the amount, but it says that Iran's exports of urea go to countries like India, Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, Turkey, and Iraq.
Clearly, the food supply for the Middle East is heavily dependent.
Well, and you could say Asia, if you count India as Asia, which technically it is.
So for parts of Asia and most of the Middle East, Iran's urea exports are really critical for food production.
Now, without urea, fertilizer prices are going to go way up.
And in places like India, that's going to result in many farmers being unable to plant crops.
Or if they can, then the price of their finished crops will go up.
And so that will result in food inflation for the end consumers.
The bottom line is that the closure of the Strait of Hormuz isn't merely a stranglehold on the energy demands of Western nations, including Western Europe.
It's also a critical pathway for essentially the ingredients for fertilizer that drives food and farming production in India and Middle Eastern nations.
So we're talking about an energy famine and a food famine at the same time.
And remember what my friend Michael Jan says, what three things go together in war?
It's war and it's famine and it's then pandemics.
War, famine, and pandemics.
It's this, you know, the holy trinity Of death, I guess, or the unholy trinity.
That scenario is shaping up right now because of what Israel is doing.
Israel is the instigator of all of this.
Israel didn't have to attack Iran.
They could have just let neighbors live, you know.
But no, they had to assassinate Iran's leaders and use car bombs and use missile strikes, bombing embassies and embassy buildings and, you know, exploding pagers in Lebanon and all kinds of insane tactics.
Israel started this.
It just looks to me like Israel is going to finish itself before this is all said and done.
But by the way, you know who's looking like a genius right now is all of you who took my advice and purchased diesel fuel tanks.
If you're sitting on 500 gallons of diesel fuel right now, you know, you're pretty smart.
Because guess what's going to happen to the price of oil if the Strait of Hormuz is closed off?
Yeah, oil is going to skyrocket.
And probably gold as well.
Maybe silver.
I don't know.
But metals will respond, as will all forms of energy.
So that could be happening right now today as you're listening to this.
Things can move very quickly today.
So the bottom line, folks, here is, of course, be prepared for almost anything to happen, including the possibility of nuclear detonations.
You realize that if Israel believes that Trump is sort of militarily divorcing itself from Israel's war, then Netanyahu might go totally berserk and start throwing nukes around.
I mean, he might just do the Samson option.
Because Israel is in dire straits right now.
It's far worse off than what Fox News and the corporate media are telling you.
Israel's on the verge of collapse right now.
A week later or two weeks later, it could be far worse.
So be prepared for anything to happen.
And that means having all kinds of backup supplies like we talk about.
Be sure to check out our sponsor, the satellite phone store, sat123.com, because satellite phones work even when the power grid doesn't.
And if you're concerned about power grid outages in the United States, which a lot of people are because of the risk of domestic terror cells and things like that, then make sure that you have a backup, like a solar generator type of system.
And as you're preparing, by the way, don't forget gold and silver because Texas Governor Greg Abbott just signed into law, this just happened yesterday, House Bill 1056.
Check this out.
Okay, check this out.
It makes Texas the first state in the Union, I'm reading from a press release, to establish a practical electronic payment system backed by gold and silver.
The landmark legislation recognizes precious metals as legal tender and creates a revolutionary transactional currency system that could fundamentally change how Texans conduct everyday business.
Wow.
So I don't even know.
I guess they're building this, but I haven't even spoken to anybody in Texas that's working on this particular project.
But apparently, State Senator Brian Hughes of Mineola was the sponsor of the system.
And it authorizes the Texas comptroller to establish electronic systems that will make precious metals functional money.
So in other words, it says Texans will be able to deposit gold and silver into the state-run Texas bullion depository.
Then they'll be able to access those holdings through debit cards and mobile apps.
Wow.
This sounds great.
The system works by allowing fractional transactions backed by physical precious metals.
When a Texan swipes their card at a grocery store or a gas station, the system automatically converts the appropriate amount of gold or silver value to complete the purchase.
So if you want to know how you can spend gold and silver, here you go.
This is how it's going to work.
It says the legal tender recognition provisions, those become effective September 1st of 2026, so a little over a year away, while the full transactional currency system will be operational by May 1st, 2027.
So the Comptroller's Office is going to have about two years to develop all the frameworks, the security protocols, vendor partnerships, etc.
Now, those of you who are paying attention, you may also notice that this is sort of a gold-backed CBDC, in a sense, that the state would know your transactions in gold and silver, or on the debit cards that are backed by gold and silver.
So this doesn't have the privacy of something like goldbacks, which you have in your hands, that the state has no idea, you know, how you're spending it.
So, you know, the Texas state electronic goldback system is great for lots of reasons, but it doesn't have the privacy of having physical gold and silver in your hands or physical gold backs, etc.
So keep that in mind.
And look, if you want to get physical gold and silver, just go to metalswithmike.com and that'll take you to our partner there, which is Battalion Metals.
That's just their new project name.
It's the same company we've been working with for years.
Or if you want to get gold backs, which are another form of spendable gold, sort of fractional spendable gold in one one thousandth of an ounce denominations that you can hold in your Hands, just go to rangerdeals.com and there you can see my links to goldbacks.
You can see some other forms of gold and silver.
You can see all of our affiliate partners there.
That's rangerdeals.com.
Or if you want goldbacks, you can just go straight to verified goldbacks.com.
And that's plural.
VerifiedGoldbacks.com.
All right, with that said, we're going to jump into the new improved music video.
And then after that, we're going to end today's interview.
And I'll be back with you tomorrow, God willing.
Pray for our world, pray for humanity, pray that this conflict does not go nuclear.
And, you know, pray for peace.
All right.

If you're interested in not just surviving, but thriving, you're really going to love our guest today because he's the founder of a company called Uberlieben.
And we'll talk about what that name means.
His name is Tim Garcia.
And he joins us by video to talk about this solution product line from his company that helps people survive and thrive off-grid, especially during emergencies.
So welcome to the show today, Tim.
It's great to have you on.
Absolutely.
Thank you for having me.
Yeah, thank you for being here.
And just for our audience to know, we partnered with your company to carry your product line because of the quality of the solutions that you offer.
We'll talk about that.
But just give us a brief overview, if you would, please, about what your company does and the product line that you have.
Yeah, so all of our products are, well, I'll just get into Überlieben as a name because that's always the first question that comes up.
But Überlieben is a German word meaning to survive, literally, or to live well.
So our focus has always been on less on the survival and more on the living well.
So incorporating these products into a lifestyle.
So yeah, I founded the company in 2016.
And I've always just had this passion for getting outdoors and doing all the outdoor stuff.
And for me, this product line that we produce is all about just simplifying and reconnecting with the elements.
So fire has always been a big part of that for me.
And yeah, the whole brand is built around just slowing down, simplifying, and reconnecting with these like lost ways, things that we've disconnected with over the years, like building a fire.
Okay, that's really great to hear because, you know, we live in such a Modern technology-driven world that most people don't know how to start a fire.
Right.
If not for like a BIC lighter or whatever, but those lighters leak, they leak lighter fluid all day long.
Right.
And if I mean, I've made that mistake.
I've bought lighters, put them on the shelf for a couple of years, came back to try them.
No fire.
No fluid.
Right.
So you offer the Pharoah bars.
Talk to us about that.
And also, I noticed your quality is much higher than sort of the cheap garbage that is sold on Amazon and other places.
So talk to us about that.
Yeah.
So for people who don't know what Ferroserium is, it's a mishmetal mix of metals, but it's very similar to what you have in a Biclider.
There's a little tiny piece of metal on there that it's like the flint that throws the sparks.
What Ferro Serium is, it's like a whole piece of that.
So the benefits to Ferroserium are, I mean, it's going to last a very, very long time.
It's going to work when it's wet.
It's going to work when it's windy.
It's going to work in any weather condition.
So it's very sustainable, like it'll always work.
And three, it's actually not that difficult to use.
So people think about, you know, like using a bow drill or some of these other ways of building a fire in a survival situation.
The benefit to a ferrocerium rod is that anybody can throw sparks with it.
So you do have to, like, there's a skill set that you have to, I guess, practice in order to get really good at it.
But like anybody can come in, throw a spark and like own that fire process.
Yeah.
Not that difficult to use.
Yeah.
I mean, look, I would just tell our audience, you have to apply some amount of pressure to the bar when you're doing it.
And that's what generates the sparks.
But what's amazing about it is it lasts forever.
You know, it doesn't go away.
And each one of your bars can start, I don't know, thousands of fires.
Have you even thought about how many it can?
I mean, it's more than anybody would normally need.
Yeah, we've rated some of them.
And these are averages too, because obviously the amount of pressure you put on it and the material you'll scrape off, all of these things will play a part.
But I think some of our larger ones are like rated for like 20,000 strikes.
But I actually think it's probably more than that on some of these just because, I mean, we've used ours.
We've used them very heavily and we still have rods that, you know, you can see the wear on them, but they're going to last for years and years.
Got it.
So you have this Hexa original right here that I'm showing.
This one seems to be pretty beefy.
Pretty good size rod.
Yep.
Yep.
So that's a half inch ferro rod, so it's pretty thick.
It's going to last quite a long time.
The benefit to the Hexa, that was a proprietary design that we designed years ago.
But essentially what it does is it has flat sides on it.
So the flat sides allow you to get more surface contact when you're scraping it.
Right.
And it's going to throw more material.
So it's kind of like partially worn.
Like if you had a ferro rod for a long time and you're using it, you would start to develop flat planes on the ferro rod.
Correct.
This is kind of like that right out of the gate.
So it just, it works really, really well.
Oh, okay.
That's, yeah, that makes a lot of sense.
Okay.
And the other benefit I want to mention here is that these sparks, they, they burn even when it's damp or wet or even when your fire starting material might be a little bit wet.
Like if you're gathering moss off trees to try to start a fire, you know, it might be a little bit damp.
So you're going to need some extra help with that.
And so talk to us about the fact that this, I mean, this burns, I think it even burns, technically, it could burn underwater, not that anybody would use it that way, but once it's lit, nothing stops it, the sparks.
Yeah, so basically what you're doing is you're scraping off the metal, the mish metal, and those little pieces of metal are ignited and they're bouncing around and they're burning at like 5,500 degrees.
So they're very, very, they're like little molten sparks that just, you know, if you throw sparks, you'll see them still kind of burning out.
And like, it's, it's, I don't know.
I'm kind of a pyro, I guess.
And that's probably part of the reason I like got into this.
But like, I don't know.
It's, there's nothing like it.
Like throwing sparks and like being part of that whole process is super cool.
Well, yeah, that's, and actually, let me reach into my pocket here.
Part of my everyday carry is a plasma lighter here, you know, the little electric kind.
You press the button, you get sparks.
Yep.
This is great for everyday use, but it requires electricity, obviously.
And this battery is pretty limited.
And obviously, it's only going to work a certain number of cycles.
It's reliant on technology.
Whereas your solution is a no-tech solution, which is a bonus.
So I've even done a book called Resilient Prepping where I give high-tech, low-tech, and no-tech solutions.
And what you're offering is perfect for no-tech.
Works no matter what.
Pretty much.
I mean, that's the beauty of, I got into like minimalist backpacking or ultralight backpacking years ago.
And I think that was kind of the draw into this minimalist mindset of like taking less gear out with you or even just having less stuff and knowing you could count on it indefinitely.
Well, speaking of less stuff, let's talk about your titanium stove.
I think it's titanium, isn't it?
The stove?
We have a stainless steel version and we have a titanium version.
So we do have cool.
So the titanium version, obviously, it's going to be pricey, but here's a minimalist stove.
Tell us about this because it's incredibly light, but it also, it's designed in a way to really focus oxygen moving through the fuel to produce fire.
So tell us about that.
Yeah, so what this is, it's a flat pack twig stove.
It goes by a bunch of different names, bio stove.
But what they are is there's five panels.
They pack flat into like a canvas bag.
So all the panels will fit into this.
Wow.
When you want to use it, you assemble the panels.
They all kind of click together.
There's a grill grate that goes on top.
I actually have one right here.
All of these panels will assemble.
You put the grill grate on top, and then you have this Super sturdy stove.
And what this does is the benefit of this is that you don't need fuel canisters.
You can literally just put dry twigs, moss, pine cones, whatever you can pick up, you can fuel this thing with.
So it's essentially like a little campfire that you can just, I mean, cook on indefinitely, boil water, whatever you need to do.
And just like the ferro rods, like this thing is, it's going to be used or it can be used just indefinitely.
As long as you have something to gather and put inside, it's good to go.
Very simple.
And what's the weight and ounces?
The weight on this one, I know the titanium is 7.7 ounces, which is very light.
Let me reference this.
No, that's great.
That's what I wanted to know was for the lighter one anyway.
Yeah.
Yeah, here it is.
It's 18 ounces.
Got it.
It's quite a bit lighter for the titanium one.
Okay.
Wow.
Even at 18 ounces, you're just about a pound.
I mean, that's not that heavy considering you're not carrying fuel canisters or anything like that with you.
Right.
So this combination then, this stove, I'm going to say there are a lot of scenarios right now where, let's say, people might lose power.
I'm not even talking about outdoorsy kind of people, just people living in the suburb.
They might lose power.
They might lose access to natural gas, power grids down, whatever.
They can literally boil water and, in essence, cook a meal on their back patio, let's say, with this.
And you're going to consume less wood too.
So if you were building, you know, a fire pit or something to do this on, you're going to burn a lot more fuel with this.
You're going to use far less.
Literally what you can gather in your neighborhood would work.
Yeah.
And talk to us about some of the materials that would be ideal for powering the stove.
You mentioned pine cones.
That's outstanding.
People should probably know leaves and grass, whatever.
Is there anything that's not obvious?
I mean, if it burns, you can put it in there.
I don't want to get too weird with it, but I mean, if it burns, you can put it in there.
It will work.
I mean, obviously, you know, the denser the material, like twigs and pine cones and things like that are going to burn a little bit longer.
But I mean, if you wanted to crumble up paper in there and burn, like it would work.
Yeah.
Well, there's a whole region in Nepal, I think, where they burn animal turds to cook for their stoves, right?
Like dried patties.
You know, they're like little fuel patties.
And that's exactly what it is, too.
It's like a bunch of grasses that are all dried up.
Yeah, that would totally work.
Yeah.
We've never taken that angle yet.
No, no, that's a whole new one.
Hey, your lunch smells like poo.
What's going on?
Well, that's actually just the heat.
Speaking of lunch and boiling water, then you also have a cook pot here.
So obviously this fills out the trio here of starting the fire, having the stove, and then the cook pot.
Tell us about this cook pot.
Cook pot is just a super durable.
We have it in stainless and we have it in titanium.
Obviously, titanium is going to be for that person who is weight conscious.
But the steel one, I mean, it's just a very beautiful, simple pot.
There's nothing crazy about it.
It's just a good quality pot.
It works really well, just size-wise, capacity-wise, with the Stoker stove.
But I mean, no frills.
It's a pretty simple, beautiful, minimalist pot.
How much water does it hold then by volume, roughly?
I believe it's 32 ounces.
Okay.
So it's enough to cook up, let's say, a two-person portion of something, like rice or what have you.
Yep.
Okay.
And then talk to me about the, how well does the titanium avoid crushing pressures?
Because an object like this, you could see that somebody could accidentally step on it or something like that.
How strong is it?
I mean, both the steel and the titanium are extremely strong.
There is benefits, like titanium has a very, I mean, it's a very strong metal.
It is.
I think some of the benefits, if we're talking about stainless to titanium, are obviously the weight is going to be far lighter with titanium, but also it cools a lot faster than stainless.
So that's a benefit that a lot of people like is if you're using the stoker stove or the pot, you're building a fire and you like want to get going after you finish doing your thing, it's going to cool a little bit quicker with the titanium over the stainless.
Okay, that makes sense.
And I want to mention everybody that all of these products and more are available in partnership with Uberleben at healthrangerstore.com.
And of course, we earn something on those purchases.
It helps support us as well.
And there are other products that we're going to be bringing in more.
And then the main website for Uberleben is here at uberleben.co.
And so, okay, so talk to us about your philosophy then in terms of how people need to interact with our modern world today with the complementary fundamental skills of resiliency and self-reliance.
Yeah, I mean, philosophy on a high level, less is more.
That's super important to me.
And I think that's important everywhere we go.
I think, you know, we're, yeah, I think less is more is super important.
But yeah, I think we've just lost our connection with the natural world.
I think, you know, we've done a lot of trade shows and things like that where we'll go out and demo the product, especially the fire starters.
We'll give them to someone who's maybe not experienced in survival skills or anything like that.
Allow them to throw sparks and like nurture a fire.
And just the light in their eyes is so cool.
So yeah, like you'll just, for me, this is something I think everybody should not only have access to, but we should like incorporate into our lives because I think we've become so disconnected with all the elements.
And I think fire is like a fundamental element that we just like don't engage with anymore.
So the act of throwing a spark, building a fire, cooking your food over a fire is, yes, it falls into the survival category.
And I think there's, I mean, it's valuable in that space.
But I think even on the daily, right, where we said like, you know, this is not necessarily just about surviving.
It's also about thriving.
That's a big part of what our brand is setting out to do is like taking these old ways of doing things, kind of wrapping them in a more modern aesthetic and making it accessible to everyone.
Right.
So, I mean, that philosophy will resonate with our audience and with myself as well.
Although, as a prepper, I'm not always less is more.
Sometimes I'm more is more, depending on what the thing is.
Yeah.
But overall, I certainly understand what you're saying, that we need to be able to survive on a lot less.
So let's talk about like bug out type of situations.
So, you know, I'm not going to get into geopolitics, but there's a lot of craziness happening in the world right now.
A lot of people are having to evacuate cities.
So if anybody watching, if you had to evacuate, what I'd like you to talk about is how this can be incorporated into people's bug out bags or a bug out vehicle, why it should be pre-positioned there so that if you have to leave, if the president or the prime minister or whoever just says, evacuate your city, and you're like, holy crap, we got to leave now.
You need to have this ready to go.
So talk to us about bug out scenarios.
Yeah, so I think one of the most important things if you're looking at packing a bug out bag would be fire.
Obviously, there's some other things too.
You want a cutting tool or you want, you know, there's, there's different things.
But for me, I think fire is one of the most important things that you should have in your bug out bag.
And if you're going to carry one thing, or even if you're going to carry a few, I would carry personally the thing that's not going to leak fuel or, you know, I think a ferrocerium rod is the most reliable means of fire that you can pack away in a bag and know that, you know, a year from now, you can pull it out and throw a spark, throw lots of sparks for a long period of time using just that one tool.
Yeah.
In fact, you know, I have had, I've looked at like little canisters of like fat wood that are also for fire starting.
And in storing them, I found that they, all the fat leaks out when they get hot.
So a little bit of sunlight.
In fact, I had some in a bug out bag in my vehicle and the vehicle got hot and all the fatwood leaked out and then it ruined everything else that was underneath it in the bag.
It all smelled because the fatwood also had some kind of fuel mixed in with it and it was like, oh God, now everything smells like lighter fluid.
Yeah.
You know, not cool.
And I've had the same experience with, you know, in the past, you know, you keep a couple lighters in a bug out bag and it just, I mean, haven't even been in an emergency situation necessarily where I needed those, but you pull it out a year or two later and like the fuel leaked out and you haven't this thing anymore.
So what's the point of being prepared and having a bag with things you can rely on if you can't actually rely on them?
Oh, I've definitely encountered that as well with so many different products.
Even like, you know, let's say rifle sights.
And then if you don't check the battery, guess what?
Hey, guess what?
The red dot is a no dot.
You know, so you got to ultimately it's got to collapse down to where you can function with a basic, basic level.
Like with a rifle, that would just be iron sights.
If you don't know how to use iron sights, that's where you need to start.
Same thing with fire.
If you don't know how to start a fire, that's where you need to start.
Do you have any like how-to videos that show people how to use these?
We do on our YouTube.
I'm pretty sure.
It's been a while since we posted some stuff, but I'm pretty sure we do have some how-tos up on the YouTube.
Okay.
And then what are you going to add to your product line coming up?
We're a lot.
We have a lot.
Again, focus for the brand has always been kind of around fire, but if you're focused on fire, there's a lot of stuff that kind of comes off of that if fire is a priority.
So obviously we have the Stoker Stove.
We have some other fire accompanying type products.
So we have like a wood or a couple different wood vessels for drinking coffee or water or things like that.
We have, again, some other products that kind of accompany the fire making process.
So we have something that's called a Tinderwick, which is a paraffin-infused hemp rope.
And it's kind of similar to what you're talking about with the fatwood.
It's a piece of rope that you can fluff up and it takes a spark very easy.
And then you can maneuver that spark to start a fire in your stoker stove or anywhere.
It's kind of like a matchstick, but that thing is always going to take a spark because it's got paraffin and it's hemp and it's always dry.
And so yeah, right now there's a lot of products kind of revolving around the fire making experience.
Okay.
All right.
Fantastic.
Are you seeing an uptick in customer interest?
And what are they telling you?
Like if they, when they contact your company and they want to buy things or they have questions, what are they using them for?
We see a lot of both.
Again, the category of products that we sell, they definitely fall under that survival or bug out prepping category.
So naturally, we do sell to a lot of that demographic or people who are thinking about those things, myself included.
But as a brand message, like I said, we've also pushed into more of a lifestyle brand where we want this stuff to be incorporated on the daily, more for just like mental well-being.
And, you know, there's a lot of that that I think is very valuable.
So it's not just fear-driven or based in preparedness, but also it's just important to like do these things for our own well-being and important to acquire the skills and practice the skills.
And yeah, that's always been a big thing for us.
So post-COVID, we saw huge surges in sales because of the fear, the prepared-mindedness that people have had.
And I think that's still continued.
But we try not to push the fear aspect as much.
And we just want people to be mentally, I think that's like the first thing for us is like to be mentally sound and we can navigate anything moving forward.
Well, I'm glad you mentioned that.
That's really consistent with our message here because I've said that the people who have the most fear Are those who are not prepared?
And when you have the skills and when you have the basic gear, and I agree, you know, you need a cutting tool, you need a knife, you need some cordage, you need a certain, you know, some basic things.
But when you have that covered and you've got the skills, you have a lot less fear.
So, right?
Right.
Absolutely.
That's kind of where we come with the more is less philosophy.
It's just like the more, yeah, I mean, the less you can do with just by having the skill set and practicing these skill sets on, you know, the daily or the weekly or whatever, the better mentally you're going to be prepared to handle whatever situations come at you.
You know, what's fascinating about this is looking at the whole history of Homo sapiens and the trouble that our ancestors went through for fire is like off the charts insane.
You know, first they had to like find some lightning started fire somewhere and then have a way to gather embers and keep the embers going and carry that around and then start some other fire to cook with or whatever.
I mean, have you studied the history of fire and just anthropology or archaeology?
Oh, absolutely.
I mean, it's fascinating.
And I think that's where, you know, on a psychological level, this stuff like just resonates so deep with me because there's, you know, there's genetic history there.
I think when we see a fire or we're able to spark a piece of, you know, material and start nurturing that fire, there's something, there's something deep in us that just lights up.
Like we've lost that connection and we need it back.
Like, I think it's so important.
You just think of, you know, how you feel sitting around a campfire in the evening, just the frequency of the light.
And like, there's so many, there's so many things there.
But man, it's like a lost thing that I feel like it's really important that we reconnect with that.
Well, totally.
And also, you know, we've been talking about cooking and boiling water to sanitize it, but of course, warmth.
Absolutely.
Warmth is arguably the most important point of fire, having shelter.
But it feels warm, like you said, sitting around a campfire.
Like psychologically, it's warm also.
Powerful.
Yeah, absolutely.
So when you are out camping, how do you manage to heat?
Like you say, you told me you live.
Is it okay if I say the state where you live?
Yeah, please.
Oh, it's Idaho, northern Idaho.
So it can get pretty cold there.
How do you heat with fire when you're out camping without having smoke problems?
Smoke problems like what?
Like just like giving away your location, smoke problems?
No, I mean just having smoke in your air or, you know, just dealing with smoke.
Yeah, I mean, if you're using, you're going to, you can't fully escape the smoke problems.
There's things you can do for efficiency.
You know, like you've probably heard of like these rocket stoves or there's different things with airflow that you can do to minimize smoke.
But to me, I don't know.
You could go like with a, you know, like a jet boil or some sort of like fueled canister for cooking your food and you're going to not have that smoke.
For me, something I've kind of learned to, it's become more important to me is like actually that smell of smoke and like that, that connection with the process is actually something I really enjoy now.
So you can fully get away with the smoke, but I enjoy the smoke and I think there's value in the smoke being part of that process.
Yeah, it makes sense.
Or you could always offer a smoke shifter.
Okay.
By the way, folks, we have a shortcut for you at our store, HealthRangerStore.com slash uberlieben.
And that's spelled U-B-E-R-L-E-B-E-N, just like the company name slash uberlieben.
And again, you know, a German name.
Why did you choose a German name?
I'm just curious.
Do you have German heritage or something?
A little bit, but I also take that stuff with a grain of salt because I know there's people who do the swab tests and like send it off and their goats are German.
So I don't know.
But yes, there is some German, but more it was just really inspired by the culture.
And yeah, there was just elements in that that were really inspiring to me.
And that's kind of what we built the brand on.
Okay.
All right.
That's perfect.
So what do you think is the most important way that people can get started with this skill set right now?
If someone's watching and they're totally new to this, they've never used a Faro rod lighter at all.
What can they do?
Today's a start.
I think it's not as intimidating as people might think.
So a lot of people get into the survival space and they look at skill sets like starting a fire and they get very intimidated.
That's a big mission of ours is to present these things to people, these tools, and show them that they're not that intimidating.
It's actually very accessible.
I have four daughters and from a young age, they were throwing sparks with these ferro rods.
So they're actually very easy to use.
And yeah, I think it's, you could jump in and start today and build a fire within a few minutes.
Very easy.
And the more you do it, the more you practice these things, the easier it's going to become.
So I would just say don't be intimidated.
These things are very accessible and easy for everyone to use.
Can I want to ask you to speak about the importance of having wisdom, understanding that starting a fire doesn't have to be a 4th of July explosive grill with gasoline type of event.
Like it can be tiny.
Can you talk about how, especially guys, for whatever reason, like macho guys are like, look, there's going to be a bonfire, you know?
Talk to us about keeping it small and simple.
I struggle with this as well.
We have a big slash pile on our property that we just put a bunch of gasoline on to burn some wood.
So yes, it is very important.
And I think that was one of the reasons we developed the Stoker stove.
So it's like a very Small product, and it does keep your fire contained.
So, you know, if you're using this, if you're actually using this to cook some food or boil some water, or even just for ambiance in the evening, like you don't need a massive fire, you don't want to burn a bunch of fuel.
You want to keep it contained, you want to keep it safe.
And I think that's one of the benefits to using something like this stoker stove is that it's going to keep it contained and very manageable.
Okay, yeah, absolutely.
And so I just want to tell our audience, I'm going to at some point do a demonstration here on my desk, not today, but I'm going to get your products here and I'm going to do a demo and then we'll put out the fire with a fire extinguisher.
And, you know, I'll try not to make a bonfire on the desk.
Yeah.
And we'll just show how easy it is to do.
But we'll, we'll demonstrate that later.
Is there anything else that you want to add before we wrap this up?
No, I think that's it.
As a brand, our message is pretty clear.
I think all the things I've already shared, like just get out there and use the products and reconnect with the art of building fire, reconnect with nature and get your head straight.
Yeah.
Good point.
Yeah.
There's actually a mental health benefit to getting out in nature and just getting back to basics.
Yeah.
Get off those blue screens and start some yellow flames instead.
I know.
Okay.
100%.
Yeah, exactly.
They say yellow light is good for you.
So, hey, fire, you know.
I know it is.
There's something there for sure.
That's right.
That's right.
Well, all right.
So the place where you can find the uber liban products is healthrangerstore.com slash uberleben.
We've got, we carry them all.
They are, all of them are in stock right now, because if they're not, then we put an out-of-stock symbol on it.
But all of these are in stock.
There's even a fire kit here that's got multiple items for you.
You can check it all out, healthrangerstore.com slash uberleben.
And we thank you, Tim, for joining us today.
Take the time to sort of showcase your products for us.
I'm really, I love your product line.
I've bought tons of Ferro rods and fire starters in the past, and most of them are super cheap kind of chintzy things, sadly.
Yeah, we can talk about that, but we do, we produce some of our FerroSerium in Austria.
So it's a softer blend, which means it peels more material.
It just works better.
So I didn't really talk about that, but thought I'd hit on that right now real quick.
Oh, that's a good idea.
Yeah, absolutely.
All right.
Well, thank you for your time.
And thanks for all that you do.
Mike, thank you for having me.
Appreciate it.
You bet.
Happy to have you on.
All right.
Take care.
All right.
So there you go, folks.
That was the founder of Uber Liban.
And, you know, look, you need this equipment in your bug out kit, wherever it is.
Maybe it's a bag that you throw in your vehicle or you have something already in your vehicle and you need to make sure that you can count on it.
So, you know, lighters and the fat wax products that I've experienced, they can have leaking problems when they get hot.
These products from Uber Lieben, they are essentially bulletproof.
They're going to be there for you year after year after year.
They do not degrade and they work every single time.
100% reliability.
So, you know, what's the value of that?
It's very high.
So check it out.
Again, healthrangerstore.com/slash uberleben.
And I'm Mike Adams, the Health Ranger.
Get prepared, everybody.
Crazy times are right ahead of us here.
So get prepared while you can.
Thanks for watching today.
