Mike Adams warns that an escalation in the Middle East war could trigger a 10 to 15-year global famine killing billions, as over 50% of food production relies on nitrogen fertilizer dependent on Qatar's Ras Laffan facility. He argues Israel's attack on the shared South Pars field prompted Iranian threats to destroy this terminal, which produces 22% of global LNG exports and 25% of helium. Since critical cryogenic heat exchangers are manufactured exclusively by Air Products in Pennsylvania with multi-year lead times, rebuilding would take over a decade, potentially feeding only 4 billion people. Adams concludes that Western civilization's fragility exposes it to depopulation if Iran executes these threats, urging immediate stockpiling of food and fuel. [Automatically generated summary]
Because that's exactly what could be unleashed here in just the next couple of days.
And once it's unleashed, there's literally nothing that anybody can do to stop it.
And I'll explain why in this special report.
Thank you for joining me.
I'm Mike Adams, the health ranger here.
And as you're well aware, war is raging in the Middle East.
What Trump had promised would only be a weekend war is now in its third week.
And as Michael Jan says, wars always grow.
They always grow in unpredictable ways.
And they always last longer than you think.
So this war is continuing to explode, and it's becoming incredibly complex and dangerous for the entire world.
And if things go wrong in a very specific way that I'll mention here, we're talking about a 10 to 15 year global famine that could kill billions of people.
And shortly, you'll understand exactly why.
And it all comes down to the fact that billions of people on this planet, well over 50% of the population, is only alive because of fertilizer.
And of course, I covered that before.
You know there's a fertilizer shortage.
You know that urea is now scarce.
You know that sulfuric acid is also scarce, and that's used to create phosphate fertilizers and other things.
And it's also used in mining for minerals like copper and zinc, etc.
But there's something else.
South Pars Gas Field Threat00:03:14
You see, in the last day, Israel attacked what's called the South Pars gas field.
Now, that's south from the point of view of Iran.
So this is one of, well, actually, I think it's the largest gas field in the world.
It's so large that it runs underneath the Persian Gulf.
This gas field is tapped into by both Iran and Qatar.
So from Qatar's point of view, it's to the northeast, and they call it one of their northern fields.
From Iran's point of view, it's on the south or southwest, and they call it their South Pars field.
And it's out of this giant gas field that energy is extracted in huge quantities and then loaded onto liquid natural gas tankers and then shipped to the world to power Western civilization.
Well, not just Western, but really all of modern civilization.
Without that gas, modern civilization, as we know it, cannot function.
That gas is now being threatened, like I said, by Israel that attacked the South Pars field.
But then, in retaliation, Iran threatened to burn other energy infrastructure to the ground in the region.
And I've got a video for you on that right now.
So let me show you.
And it's subtitled, so I'll read it for you.
This is a firm warning and a red line for the criminals, he says, who attacked parts of Iran's energy infrastructure in the southern region of the country as a result of this action.
The fuel, energy, and gas infrastructure at the origin of the aggression will be set ablaze, he says, and reduced to ashes at the earliest opportunity.
We declare to the cowardly and criminal, aggressive American military and the savage child-killing Zionist regime, you are compelled to throw your soldiers into their doom, he says, and lose your dignity.
The throats of your commanders, he says, and soldiers are under the boots of the warriors of Islam.
Is the strategic confusion in your face?
I think the reality of the battlefield is clear.
Think about the astonishing events.
You came with a victory scenario, and now you are searching for ways to preserve your survival in hidden underground think tanks.
Your era of bullying is over.
I think some of the translation isn't accurate.
Your only refuge to escape the blows of Iran's is to leave the region or choose death, he says.
And victory is only from Allah, he says, the Almighty, the wise.
Okay.
There you go.
I'm not mocking him, by the way.
I'm just trying to read this without using my own normal voice.
Anyway, the point is that he's threatening that Iran will destroy the energy infrastructure at the source of the attack that hit Iran.
LNG Trains Offline Now00:13:32
And then he names five facilities.
And let's see.
Those are the Samref refinery in Saudi Arabia, the Al-Hosan gas field in the UAE, the Jubayel Petrochemical Complex in Saudi Arabia, the Chevron Mesaid complex in Qatar, and then the Ras Lafan 1 and 2 gas refineries in Qatar.
Now, that's the one that matters, that last one.
Ras Lafan.
I don't know if I'm even pronouncing it correctly, obviously.
Most of us have never heard of those before.
Western civilization hinges on those refineries.
Ras Lafan 1 and 2 in Qatar.
It's the largest natural gas terminal on the planet by far.
If that facility is destroyed, and I mean if it's completely destroyed, which seems to be what Iran is promising, then the world goes into a 10 to 15 year famine where billions could die.
Now let me explain why.
So to understand this, you need to understand what a train is in the context of LNG or liquid natural gas.
So how do you take gas and turn it into a liquid so that you can transport it on those giant domed tanker ships with great efficiency, by the way?
Well, you do this through, I guess it's about five steps.
And these steps are linked together, kind of like boxcars on a train.
So I had to look this up as well, but step one is a gas pre-treatment to remove impurities.
Step two is a natural gas extraction that separates out the heavier hydrocarbons like propane or butane.
And then step three, this is the big deal right here, the refrigeration and liquefaction.
So you have to cool the gas to minus 260 degrees Fahrenheit.
Right.
And then it becomes a liquid.
Yeah.
And so that is a very complex and also energy intensive process.
And the equipment is extremely expensive.
Then step four is the end flash and fractionation.
So there's a pressure reduction and final separation.
And then step five is the liquid natural gas output that then gets loaded onto the ships.
So right now, I believe, yeah, I'm checking it.
Ras Lafan 1 and 2, they have 14 trains.
14 trains, okay?
So when you hear the word train, that's what this is referring to.
So the capacity of these trains is rated in million tons per annum or per year.
So MTPA.
So one train will typically produce something like four to eight MTPA or million tons per year.
Got it?
Okay.
So right now out of the Ras Lafan refineries in Qatar, the LNG production capacity is 77 million tons per year.
That's the largest in the world by far.
That facility is right now offline.
It's offline.
Why?
Because it's been hit by Iran.
And in fact, Iran hit it just in the last day with another strike that set it on fire.
Not all of it, by the way, not all of it, but parts of it were burning the last time I checked.
Now, Qatar did put out a statement that said that there was, what did they say?
Significant, oh, extensive damage, they said.
Actually, here.
Let me read the statement for you because it says there's extensive damage, but they have it under control at the moment.
Here we go.
Qatar Energy confirms that Ras Lafan industrial city this evening has been the subject of missile attacks.
Emergency response teams were deployed immediately to contain the resulting fires as extensive damage has been caused.
All personnel have been accounted for and no casualties reported at this time.
Qatar Energy will continue to communicate.
Well, you don't have to be a genius to realize that you don't want fires near the world's largest natural gas production facility that has gas under pressure just waiting to escape and explode and create the world's largest fuel air bomb, basically.
Yeah, very bad, right?
So it doesn't take much to take this facility offline.
And like I said, it's offline right now.
Okay, now this has 14 dedicated berths for the vessels.
Those are the ports for the ships, okay?
It's got 14 of them.
And it also has 14 trains.
Every year, over 1,600 tankers fill up there.
Every year.
Okay?
It also produces 25% of the world's supply of helium.
Yeah.
And this thing, this facility cost about $30 billion to build.
And it was built over decades.
Well, a couple of decades almost, from 1994 to 2010.
Got it?
This facility accounts for about 20 to 22% of all LNG exports that are traded globally.
Okay.
Half of the LNG tankers that exist on planet Earth are stuck in the Persian Gulf.
The Strait of Hormuz is closed, which means that those ships can't get out without the permission of Iran.
And like I said, the Ras Lafan facility is offline.
But I'm just getting started.
There's more to this.
There's much more.
Okay.
If you look at countries, especially Asian importers like Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, etc., India, on average, those countries have about 10 days of an LNG buffer.
That's what they had on March 2nd.
Taiwan had 11 days.
South Korea had nine days.
Japan, similar numbers.
I don't know how much energy those countries have remaining at this point or where they're going to get it.
I would imagine that Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, and we know India is in trouble too, but all those countries and many more are right now on the verge of running out of natural gas.
And the Strait of Hormuz remains closed.
Now, I'm not even going to mention the other five or the other four targets that Iran named Because they are significant, but they're not nearly as critical as this one that we are talking about here, Ras Lafan.
You're going to hear that name a lot, so get used to it.
The Lafan is spelled L-A-F-F-A-N.
And again, it's 20 to 22% of global exports of LNG, and it's critical.
It's critical to the functioning of Western civilization.
And you know that Qatar Energy has already declared force majeure, which means they've already defaulted on their delivery of this to those countries that I already mentioned and many others as well.
So where do these countries go for alternative sources of energy?
Mostly Australia, which does have its own natural gas, not on the scale of Qatar, but it has some, and of course the US exports as well, and Malaysia has some export capability.
Let's see, China, but they're not exporting anymore.
So the question that we need to ask is, out of those stages that I just mentioned, the stages of processing the gas into a liquid, you need to understand what those stages are.
And importantly, you need to understand how many years it would take to repair and restore different trains of this facility if Iran's attacks continue, which Iran promises to do.
And it doesn't take much because this is a self-exploding bomb, you know?
So you're about to learn about something called cryogenic heat exchangers.
For some reason, the initials are M-C-H-E, okay?
Apparently, and again, I'm only learning this too, but I had my AI research agents do all the research on this.
You know, the cooling of the natural gas into the liquid is carried out through steps, different cooling steps that are conducted by the cryogenic heat exchangers.
They're getting rid of heat, and that's why they have to exchange heat.
There's only one company in the world that makes these units at the sizes that are needed by Qatar.
Just one company in the world.
That company is called Air Products and Chemicals, APCI.
And it's located in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
Billy Jewel, you know, Allentown, yeah.
If you want to order one of the units that would be used in one of the trains in Qatar Energy, the lead time is three to four years for one unit.
Got it?
Okay.
One unit.
So if one train is destroyed, then that train is offline for three to four years because there's nobody else that makes this.
If multiple trains are destroyed, then the manufacturing wait time of this stretches out to eight to ten years.
You know, the more units you need, the longer you have to wait, obviously.
So right there, you realize that if Iran destroys multiple trains, which it can do, obviously, it's actually Iran's choice not to.
But if it does, then Western civilization is offline for eight to ten years.
Got it?
So if all 14 trains are destroyed, which is well within the capability of Iran, including the ports and the storage facilities and the pipelines, etc., let's say total destruction, which is what Iran promised to do, then the time required to rebuild that facility is 10 to 15 years.
Got it?
That's how we get to a 10-year famine.
Just rebuilding the berths for the ships there, you know, the 14 berths, if they were destroyed, that would take four to six years all by itself, according to my AI researchers.
Okay?
Yeah.
And other infrastructure could also be damaged that would add additional years to the rebuilding time.
And then the fleet itself, the fleet of vessels, and remember there are, what is it?
What is it like 1,600 vessels that are trapped in the Persian Gulf right now?
I forgot the exact number.
But if those get destroyed because of a giant explosion, then to rebuild them will take three to four years per ship.
And that's using Korean or Chinese shipyards, which they have the best shipyards right now to build the most ships.
In other words, if you destroy 10 ships, that's 30 to 40 years to build them back.
Got it?
So here's the question.
Here's the question.
Oh, and by the way, the cost to rebuild just four trains, not even 14, but just four trains is, in today's dollars, about $30 billion.
$30 billion.
So who's going to pay the $30 billion?
And then there's all the lost revenue during the time of the shutdown, which right now, that's over $100 billion a year that's lost.
That's revenue to Qatar.
So you see what I'm saying, that this could bring down the entire nation of Qatar.
$30 Billion Rebuild Cost00:02:53
Okay?
Yeah.
So, look, the bottom line in this right now is that Western civilization has built itself on the shoulders of a technology, you know, the trains that can create liquid natural gas, a technology that uses components that are very easy to blow up and very hard to replace, if not impossible at scale right now.
So in other words, all of Western civilization, the food supply, the fertilizer, industry, metals, you know, manufacturing, the power grid, you name it, all of it is way more fragile than you thought.
Way more fragile.
Remember what I've said repeatedly on this broadcast.
I've said, you know, store some food and store some diesel.
I've talked about diesel tanks numerous times, about getting a 500-gallon diesel tank, you know, a double-walled tank, UL-listed, and then call a diesel company, come out and fill it up.
Yeah.
How many times have I said that?
How many times have I said that I run diesel engines exclusively because diesel is easier to store and safer to store than gasoline?
And so I don't go to a gas station anymore to get diesel.
I just fill it up from my tanks.
Well, the value of the diesel in those tanks just doubled.
Diesel is over $5 a gallon on average nationwide and it's going to go to $10 a gallon.
That is, if this war continues, and there's no evidence that it won't continue.
There's no evidence that we're anywhere near peace, right?
So if you stored fuel, then you're a happy camper right now.
Well, at least you're less freaked out, let's say, because you've got supplies of something that's going to be very difficult to get.
And I've also said store food.
And of course, my online store sells storable food.
And we have a sale going right now, actually, which is crazy because we're probably going to run out of everything.
But you can take advantage of it.
It's our customer appreciation sale.
And it's at healthrangerstore.com slash appreciate.
And you will appreciate the fact that we still have food.
And it's clean, and it's organic, and it's lab-tested, and ultra-clean formulations, and rugged, packed.
A lot of it's freeze-dried.
A lot of it's packed in the polyethylene buckets, the ranger buckets, etc.
You can find all that.

Billions Starve Without Nitrogen00:15:37
But if you don't have those things, if you don't have food and you don't have fuel, things are about to get very difficult for you.
Because Western civilization can only exist due to the steady flow of massive amounts of energy out of Qatar.
That's just the way it is.
That's, well, Qatar and Iran and Saudi Arabia, you know, different forms of energy.
Oil from Iran and Saudi Arabia, etc.
But gas largely out of Qatar, out of this one facility based on 14 trains that each have one major component, you could say, which is this cryogenic heat exchanger that's only made by one company in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
And if those components get blown up by Iran, then the world will suffer a 10-year famine.
At least 10 years, maybe more.
And we could see billions of people starve.
That's how dangerous this is.
According to my AI research agents, if seven to ten trains were destroyed, then we would only have famine for five to eight years.
That's the good news.
Yeah, how's your food supply looking right now, right?
You see what I mean that you're going to have to grow some food?
If one to three trains are physically destroyed, but the port facilities remain intact, then this might be less than five years of shortages and maybe not total global famine because it hasn't taken all 14 trains offline.
So basically, the more trains go down, the more humans starve.
And the more trains go down, the longer it takes to build them back.
And we even have a timeline of that.
So between one and four years for the engineering, design, and procurement of all the materials necessary to rebuild if there's a total destruction scenario.
And then by the sixth year, they would complete site clearance and all of the marine works and all the civil work that's needed, you know, concrete, reshaping the facility, et cetera.
By year nine, there would be two to three trains operating again.
So two or three trains out of 14, nine years into this, and then to restore all 14 trains would take 10 to 15 years, according to my AI research agents.
Got it?
10 to 15 years.
During that time, billions could starve.
Now, assuming that you could get these cryogenic heat exchangers, assuming you could get them, you still have other problems.
You have contractor capacity.
There just aren't enough people in the world who know what they're doing around this equipment to build 14 trains at the same time.
So the large contractors, again, this is according to my research agents.
There are large contractors, Bechtel, for example, Technip Energies, etc.
They can maybe work on two to three trains simultaneously if they devote everybody to that.
Okay?
That's it.
And just recently, by the way, there was an expansion of four trains.
It took more than seven years, in case you're keeping track.
And I encourage you to search online to confirm everything I'm saying because you'll find it's all true, even though it sounds unbelievable that Western civilization could be dependent on such a vulnerable piece of equipment.
Like, we're all dependent on this in order to not die.
Think about it.
Just to rebuild the ship berths, these are called QMAX LNG berths.
They are 17 meters deep.
You would have to engage in dredging operations and construction, you know, marine construction, that would take a global fleet of dredging vessels that I'm seeing here.
They're called the Boscalis-class operations.
And that would take years just for the dredging and the construction of the berths.
And obviously, you can't export LNG without the ship berths.
Obviously.
You can't just put it in buckets.
Here, walk it out of here.
In order to finance this, you're going to need tens of billions of dollars of financing.
And I ask you this question.
What lender is going to lend tens of billions of dollars to Qatar to rebuild all this in the middle of a war?
And the answer is nobody.
No freaking body is going to do that.
So until the conflict ends, there shall be no rebuilding because there will be no loans.
No insurance.
No gas.
No Western civilization.
You see?
So without long-term safety guarantees, including Iran, right?
If Iran doesn't sign on the bottom line and say, okay, we will refrain from bombing this facility, then it will never be rebuilt.
Never.
And I guess half the human population will just die.
No, seriously.
Current estimates of fertilizer show that about 4 billion people, you know, right around 50% of the population, needs nitrogen in order to eat, you know, nitrogen crops.
So there was a study actually in 2004 that looked at this in great detail and it found that if you don't have nitrogen fertilizer inputs into global crops, you get about 50% of the yield.
50%.
So that means, with 50% of the yield, quiz time, how many billion people can you feed with half the yield?
And the answer is only half the population.
That's about 4 billion people.
That means that the other 4 billion will starve and die.
Okay?
So again, this is widely known.
Nitrogen fertilizers are responsible for feeding half of the world's population.
Now, you could argue that, okay, well, Qatar is only responsible for 20 to 22 percent of the global LNG exports.
But those exports make up a larger percentage of the nitrogen-based fertilizers.
In addition, because of this extreme shortage, you have to understand that the remaining available natural gas will be bid up in price by the industrial users and the countries that want to keep their power grids online.
You know, they want to keep the lights on.
So they're going to take the gas.
And the gas that will be used for fertilizer will be far lower than what you might imagine because it's going to be the most expensive gas because of the global price bidding on gas for the reasons I just mentioned.
So that means that farmers will have to use a lot less fertilizer or none at all.
And that's how you get to a significant reduction of global crop yields.
Maybe it's not 50%, but it's certainly more than 25%.
So if it's somewhere between 25 and 50%, let's say, that is, if Qatar energy is completely destroyed and all 14 trains go offline, okay, and we have a 10-year famine, the number of human beings that will starve to death on this planet will probably be between 2 and 4 billion people.
Got it?
2 and 4 billion people.
And a whole lot of those people will be in India and some in Indonesia, you know, some in South America.
And for those who manage to survive this, they're going to spend a much larger percentage of their income on food, which is going to thrust people into poverty because you have to eat, so you're going to pay whatever you need to, right?
It's also going to make home gardening incredibly valuable because, you know, you'll be able to grow your own food for a fraction of what it costs to buy.
And need I remind you, by the way, that right now we have the garden seed kits at healthrangerostore.com.
Actually, it's part of our customer appreciation sale.
Just go to healthranger store.com slash appreciate and then you can click on third-party vendors there.
You'll see all the seed kits that are available.
This is the time to buy them.
But remember what I said before, if you buy seeds, you should also stockpile fertilizer.
Do you remember me saying that?
I said that years ago.
And I'm sitting on pallets of fertilizer for that very reason.
And what do I call it?
Remember?
White gold.
That's right.
White gold, and people laughed at that at the time.
Nobody's laughing now.
In fact, people are crapping themselves thinking about a 10-year famine.
Now, granted, we're not, that's not a certainty yet because the Qatar energy facility has not been destroyed.
I mean, it's on fire, or it was on fire.
There was, quote, extensive damage, but the trains haven't blown up yet.
But that could happen tomorrow.
And if that happens tomorrow, I will instruct my staff to buy every lot of food that they can find and get it into our warehouse.
And then I will tell you that this is it.
This is the last train, so to speak.
This is the last train out of Dodge.
This is it.
After this, we don't know if we're going to get any more food.
Okay?
So that's what I'm going to do.
If Qatar energy goes up in flames, I'm going to do my best to secure supplies that will be available to you.
If Qatar energy goes up in flames, you should run out.
I mean, I don't want to cause panic here, but you should urgently acquire massive amounts of food.
No joke.
That is, if you don't want to starve.
Now, again, it hasn't happened yet, but Iran has threatened it and they've already set it on fire.
It could happen tomorrow.
It could happen tomorrow.
And I'm not joking about the rebuild time here.
If you look, I have my research agents also look at construction times of other facilities.
There's one in the U.S. called Sabine Pass that is 30 MTPA, you know, annual output.
Took seven years to build.
There's one in Australia that took seven years to build that produces 8.9 MTPA.
Let's see.
There's another one in the U.S. that is plaqua mines.
Took two and a half years.
So that was fast.
But the Ras Lafenfield, if it's completely destroyed, 10 to 15 years to rebuild it.
And then, let's see, I was giving some cost estimates, but if you're talking about the entire facility being destroyed, all 14 trains and everything else and the ports and all that, it's almost, it's up to $100 billion to rebuild it.
Just the storage tanks would be $3 to $6 billion for the 14 storage tanks.
Harbor dredging and the rock armor, $4 to $7 billion.
It goes on and on.
The helium and GTL plants, $10 to $20 billion, etc.
So, yeah.
Yeah.
Bad news.
Now, if this is Trump's way of making a lot of money for U.S. gas companies, and I hope that's not what is in his mind here, that's true.
U.S. natural gas exporters would earn a fortune because you've got U.S. ports, you've got Sabine Pass, Corpus Christi, Texas, Freeport.
That there's maybe 10 to 15 MTPA of extra supplies that could be sold off from the United States.
So that can only cover maximum about one-fifth of what Qatar Energy produces or exports.
So that's not enough.
There's some excess capacity out of Australia, the Northwest Shelf, Wheatstone, etc.
That could cover maybe 5% of Qatar Energy's gap.
Realistically, of all the facilities around the world, there's one in Oman.
It's very tiny.
There's one in Nigeria.
There's one in Malaysia.
There's one in Russia.
That's the Yamal field there.
But they're not going to sell it to anybody in the West anyway.
If you add them all up, you can maybe, maybe get about 30% of the gap of what Qatar Energy would normally be able to produce and export.
Maybe 30%, but that's stretching it.
So there will be a scramble for alternatives, of course.
And one of the things that's going to happen is you're going to see a lot of energy plants switch over to coal.
And coal is widely available.
So, you know, that could help fill the gap, right?
Power utilities.
They're just going to start shoveling coal to offset some of the gas demand.
This can happen in South Korea, in Germany, in Japan.
And also solar.
There'll be a lot of solar deployments to try to make up for the gap as well.
In Europe, they could reactivate some of the gas fields that they shut down because of all the climate lunatics that run Europe.
So, you know, maybe within a couple of years, well, I don't know.
It's Europe.
Europe Shovels Coal and Solar00:03:05
It'll probably take 20 years because of the paperwork.
All the permission slips and stamps and everything.
Yeah, it's probably 20 years.
But eventually they could have gas flowing in Europe again if they wanted to.
They're usually not that rational, so don't count on that.
But, you know, look, overall, there would be some compensation.
You know, the coal, the solar, a little bit.
But a lot of industry runs only on gas.
And switching these over to alternative power sources itself takes energy and time and expertise.
And so there would be a long wait time for any of the contractors or experts or builders who know how to do that.
So this isn't something that can happen overnight.
And that's why I say that during all of this, some percentage of the human population will starve.
It turns out there is a genuine physical shortage if this facility goes offline.
And I have published a book.
I just put this together for you.
And it's free.
And the audio book is done and free also.
And the book is called The Last Molecule.
How Trump's War on Iran Shattered the Global Energy Order.
You like the name?
I like the name.
I like the cover.
The cover is awesome.
You should see it.
Just go to books.brightlearn.ai.
And if you click on, oh yeah, click on audiobooks there.
You can't miss it.
It's a button right there at the top of the, or near the top of the homepage.
Click on audiobooks, and you're going to see this book.
It's called The Last Molecule.
And this book, which is nine chapters, this book has, again, full-length audio book, MP3, plus PDF, whatever you want to download.
This will explain everything about natural gas and the Strait of Hormuz and Qatar Energy and why all of this is critical for civilization.
It's all about LNG reserves and things like that.
So if you want to become an expert on this topic, read my book.
Like, how did you write it so fast?
You know how I do things.
So I have AI agents do things for me.
I give them instructions and prompts.
I tell them what to do, and then they go do it.
So, yeah, the book was researched and written by my AI agents using my knowledge.
And I don't know every single thing that's mentioned in the book, by the way, because I haven't read it yet.
But in this urgent situation, I wanted to make it available for you.
And I do need to read this book.
So I'll download the MP3s myself and play it when I'm on my tractor or something, burning diesel and wondering, where's tomorrow's diesel going to come from?
You know, fortunately, I've got some stored diesel, but that's not going to last forever either.
Think about it.
Nuclear Escalation Chance00:11:40
Now, if you were trying to achieve global depopulation, this would be the perfect way to achieve it, wouldn't it?
Shut down the Strait of Hormuz.
Or kind of convince Iran to shut it down for you.
So you know how Trump launched Operation Warp Speed, developed a bioweapon in the Department of Defense, and then sent it off to Wuhan for gain of function, and then put it in the jabs, and then use the military to distribute the jabs, scared everybody into taking jabs, which killed off one and a half million Americans and over 20 million people around the world.
But that's nothing compared to shutting the Strait of Hormuz and bombing Qatar Energy to destroy 14 trains.
If you destroy the 14 trains, like I said, according to my research here, between two and four billion human beings will starve to death.
That is depopulation.
And it seems to me that's exactly what the globalists are trying to achieve.
And this happened under Trump also.
Trump is like Mr. Depopulation.
Every time he's in the White House, people die in large numbers, you know.
Well, I mean, they were dying during Joe Biden's presidency, too, during COVID and the Ukraine-Russia war.
So I guess they're all part of the same death cult when it comes down to it, but Trump's no better.
I mean, here we are, cut off from the molecules, the hydrocarbons that power Western civilization.
Cut off with no end in sight.
And Trump, Trump has no solution.
He has no off-ramp to this.
It looks like we're going to try to land a few thousand Marines on some of those islands in the Strait of Hormuz.
How's that going to go?
It's going to be a bunch of dead Marines floating down the strait.
You know, that's not good.
We don't want that.
And then at one point, Trump just said, oh, we should just leave and let the Europeans figure out how to open the strait.
Yeah, you should just leave.
If you just leave, there might actually be peace.
Leave, like pull all the U.S. military presence out of the Middle East completely.
Shut down all the bases.
They're all blown up anyway.
Pull the U.S. out, pull the Navy out, the Air Force, all of it.
Remove the U.S. from the Middle East.
And I bet you the Strait of Hormuz opens back up automatically.
The only reason it's closed is because Trump and Netanyahu are waging war against Iran.
That's the reason.
So it's Trump and Netanyahu that are starving the world.
They're causing a 10-year famine if it escalates to that point.
Iran is just responding to being attacked.
Iran is just acting out of self-defense.
Iran didn't initiate this.
They didn't launch the first attack.
They were sitting there negotiating in good faith with Witkoff and Kushner.
And then Trump ordered the attack right in the middle of the negotiations, as usual.
So this is on Trump and Netanyahu.
This isn't Iran's fault.
Now, yeah, Iran could, of course, it can choose its own targets.
And Iran is controlling the escalation here, the escalation ladder, as it's called.
Iran hasn't yet blown up 14 trains of Qatar energy.
But do you realize it could blow up one or two to send a message?
Like, hey, you know those 14 trains you have there?
What if we just destroyed two of them and then we told you we're serious?
And if you don't leave, we're going to blow up two more every five days until we get to all 14.
It's your choice.
You either surrender to our terms or we are going to just burn down the entire energy infrastructure of civilization.
At this point, Iran is fighting for its own existence.
And they've been put there by Trump and Netanyahu.
So, of course, Iran is going to stick with its guns on this.
They're not going to surrender now.
What?
And give up everything they fought for and died for?
Not a chance.
You've got to understand the Persian people are not weak-minded, incompetent morons like, you know, the people running the Pentagon.
The Persians are smart.
They're good at strategy.
Okay.
And so Iran is controlling the escalation ladder.
And so the fact that Iran has not yet blown up the 14 trains is a negotiation token.
It's like, hey, you know, we could do more damage.
So why don't you, you know, why don't you call off your attacks and then we'll call off our attacks and then maybe we could de-escalate this thing.
Otherwise, if this thing continues to escalate, if Trump thinks, oh, we're going to land Marines and we're going to bomb them and we're going to keep attacking, guess what?
Iran's going to burn down civilization by destroying 14 trains that will take a decade to replace.
More than a decade.
So there you go.
There you go.
That's more than you ever wanted to know about liquid natural gas and where it comes from and the hardware.
And I do want to remind you, the number one piece of equipment is the main cryogenic heat exchanger.
Got it?
The main cryogenic heat exchangers, MCHE.
Repeat that three times because you're going to wonder.
I mean, you're going to need to know about this.
Okay?
And again, the gas fields in Qatar are called Ras Lafan.
There's 14 trains.
They all have a cryogenic heat exchanger.
And those are only made by one company in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
And if those all get destroyed, then billions will starve.
Okay?
Cause and effect.
Cause and effect.
And I guarantee you, Trump had no idea of any of this.
Nobody in the White House has any clue when they started this that they were going to unleash this whole thing.
Or if they did have a clue, then they're insane.
I mean, maybe that's the accurate answer.
Who knows?
But I don't think they even considered this because I don't think they have any knowledge about the way the world works.
You know, they're so full of themselves just bluffing and lying all the time, just making up things constantly that they don't realize there's a real world with real cause and effect that everybody else has to abide by.
You know, I mean, you can make up stuff in your press conference, but you can't make up molecules, hydrocarbons.
And without those hydrocarbons, the world doesn't eat.
Farms don't grow full yields, you know?
So there you go.
All right, so if you want to stay informed with my broadcast, you can find them at brightvideos.com.

You know, none of us can.
