| We got a couple things that we're going to talk about. | |
| This is going to be very heavy foreign affairs-wise, especially Middle Eastern foreign affairs. | |
| So if you guys are interested in that type of thing, you've come to the right place, my friends. | |
| We're live on my channel as well as on my brother's channel. | |
| If you guys are not following, you guys need to follow. | |
| It's called Read Report. | |
| Make sure to go support him over there. | |
| I think I got him tagged in the title as well, if I'm not mistaken. | |
| We got him to his first 1,000 subscribers. | |
| We're sitting over like 2,000 now, if I'm not mistaken. | |
| Right. | |
| I'm at 4,000 almost. | |
| I'm at 3.9K, I believe. | |
| Nice, nice, nice. | |
| I appreciate the love, guys. | |
| Thank you so much for the unwavering support. | |
| I've gotten like flooded in my DMs, my X DMs, everything like that. | |
| So much love to you guys. | |
| You don't understand how much that means. | |
| Really means a lot for my channel to blow up that quickly. | |
| And I should, again, I know the audio trolls. | |
| This nigga's got really cheap headphones, but I should sound better tonight. | |
| I played around with my mixer and set some things up differently. | |
| So it should be coming in really clear. | |
| But I have my chat up this time. | |
| So if there's any issues, please just let me know. | |
| But yeah. | |
| Yeah. | |
| So I guess what we could do is we could start with the meeting and how we got here. | |
| Just give me one sec. | |
| I'm like adjusting my chats real fast. | |
| Give me one sec, Ninjas. | |
| Oh, fuck. | |
| And sorry for delay, guys. | |
| Like, I am so dead right now. | |
| I literally, as you guys know, I do it. | |
| We're going to be doing a 3P today. | |
| We got After Hours coming up as well. | |
| We were going to do a regular show of FNF, but today's episode is very important. | |
| So probably won't do that. | |
| But we do got something very important tomorrow. | |
| We're going to be going crazy on Twitter tomorrow. | |
| So we're going to need all your guys' support. | |
| I'm going to cover that as well. | |
| So, you know, some bullshit has been going on and we're fucking fighting back, bro, honestly, because it's been pissing me off. | |
| My brother knows all about it. | |
| We'll talk about it more detail. | |
| I might mention it tonight, but audio should be good. | |
| You guys should be able to hear me here. | |
| And I think we are live on everything. | |
| Let me get the chat going as well. | |
| Let me show that on screen. | |
| And then we're going to go ahead and cover what we got going on here. | |
| A lot of developments, important stuff that we need to talk about. | |
| A bunch of stuff going on in the region all over the place. | |
| Okay. | |
| So how the hell did we get here? | |
| Okay. | |
|
Gulf Ring of Fire
00:15:17
|
|
| As you guys know, we have not had the best relationship with Iran, and this has been going on since what, 1979? | |
| And to be honest with you guys, we really want to go back with the history of Iran. | |
| You got to go back to like 1953 with Operation Ajax, where we basically overthrew their government alongside the MI6 and the Mossad and the CIA, which back then, yeah, it was the CIA back then. | |
| And it was because of their, you know, oil, essentially. | |
| They wanted to, you know, they wanted a little bit of autonomy with their own resources. | |
| We said no because the Brits haven't had a problem with that. | |
| We went in and overthrew Mossadegh, got him jailed and killed. | |
| And this led to the Shah taking over, or the Shah's father, if I'm not mistaken, taking over for roughly 20 plus years. | |
| This led to the Iranian Revolution of 1979 and the theocracy that we have in power now. | |
| And that's who's been in power pretty much the whole time. | |
| That style of governance. | |
| Obviously, they have a very big issue. | |
| Their top ops are Israel, okay? | |
| And they've had a problem with Israel. | |
| Oh, shit. | |
| Go top H here. | |
| Speaking of Israel. | |
| New book coming out soon, niggas. | |
| Why would we reserve you a less, though? | |
| Coming very soon, niggas, okay? | |
| So anyway. | |
| Sorry, that was from OSS earlier. | |
| So, anyway, Iran has been really, well, the entire Muslim world has had a problem with Israel's presence there. | |
| But through either coups, wars, assassinations, destabilization efforts by the West, Israel's basically toppled and destroyed every single Muslim slash Arab country that stood in its way in the Middle East from being the hegemon in the Middle East. | |
| And the only country that's left now at this point, guys, is Iran. | |
| Okay. | |
| And what Iran has done, knowing that Israel is a very capable military and a very capable intelligence powerhouse alongside the United States, is they've done a couple of things to protect themselves. | |
| Okay. | |
| And the things that they did to protect themselves was, number one, create the acts of resistance, which essentially funds and supports a bunch of proxy powers in the region, okay, to combat Israel's aggression. | |
| Okay. | |
| They support the Houthis in Yemen. | |
| They support Hamas in the Gaza Strip, who's literally right there on the Israeli border. | |
| I don't know if you could pull up a map real quick for me, Riyadh, on your side. | |
| And they also support the Houthi, excuse me, the Hezbollah, okay? | |
| Hezbollah in Lebanon, who's to the north. | |
| So if you guys look at this geographically, which my brother's going to pull up for you guys right now, basically what Iran has cleverly done is they've created a ring of fire surrounding Israel and also the Bashal Assad regime, okay, with Syria in the north, right? | |
| So this has created a difficult situation for the Israelis. | |
| Next, they have a threshold nuclear state. | |
| What does this mean? | |
| This means that they have talented scientists that have been having a civilian nuclear program, but at the same time, they've been working towards enriching uranium to high levels. | |
| Okay. | |
| We've seen it at 60 all the way up to 80%. | |
| And by many different standards, the Iranians can absolutely, oh, shit. | |
| My bad. | |
| Let me give you co-hosts here. | |
| I was wondering why it wasn't coming up. | |
| Okay. | |
| So by many different standards, right? | |
| And here's a picture of the Middle East here, guys, right? | |
| So we can go ahead and let me go through it one more time. | |
| So we have Iran, right, in the center. | |
| Okay. | |
| Then you see to their west is Iraq. | |
| Now, it is important to understand that for a very long time, the Iranians and the Iraqis fought, which my brother's going to go into a little bit of that later on when he gives you guys his monologue. | |
| But as of late, since the fall of Saddam Hussein, Iraq has become an ally for the Iranians. | |
| There are Iranian-backed proxy groups in Iraq. | |
| Okay. | |
| Then you have Syria, right, to the west of Iraq. | |
| Okay, this was run by Bashal Assad for a very long time, okay, right there in Damascus. | |
| Then you have Lebanon with Beirut, Hezbollah stronghold. | |
| And I would argue that Hezbollah has been the strongest proxy group in this acts of resistance against the Israelis. | |
| They've fought the Israelis on multiple occasions in the 80s and 2006, multiple skirmishes in the 2000s. | |
| And they've won, actually. | |
| They've actually beaten the Israelis on the floor on the ground many times. | |
| And then you have, obviously, the Gaza Strip down below, where we're all very familiar with where Gaza is now, obviously, after what Israel did with the genocide. | |
| And then you got the Houthis all the way down in Yemen, right? | |
| Now, the Houthis, right, and they control basically the western side, especially hug in the seaboard area of Yemen. | |
| Now, the Houthis are kind of interesting because with them, they're not just a resistance group, they're also pirate niggas, okay? | |
| And they basically have been choking Israel financially and have bankrupted one of their ports completely, okay, by boarding ships. | |
| And they're like, as my brother calls them, what do you call them, Reality? | |
| You call them cockroaches? | |
| Yeah, they're cockroaches because they just don't die. | |
| Yeah. | |
| And I'll go to that later, how much adversity they face, yet they still have a very, very strong existence and presence in Yemen today. | |
| Yes. | |
| So extremely difficult to deal with, extremely mobile, extremely, you know, they're a competent fighting force. | |
| The United States had to have a ceasefire with these niggas. | |
| So, you know, they're very elusive. | |
| So it's very difficult to hit them, right? | |
| They're probably, I would say, as well as their strongest, then the Houthis are just like the most difficult to deal with. | |
| And these guys have been sending missiles into Israel and creating this problem for Israel for a very long time. | |
| So one of Iran's, and it's important that you guys understand this because this is what's going to lead into what we talk about next. | |
| So Iran's four, they have four different combat strategies of combating Israel in the West. | |
| So number one is the proxy groups acts of resistance, right? | |
| Which they funded back, okay? | |
| Because this creates insulation for them, right? | |
| And protection from Israel. | |
| Next, their ballistic missile program, which honestly is the centerpiece of these strategies. | |
| It's not the nuclear program anymore. | |
| It's the ballistic missile program. | |
| Okay. | |
| It is a extremely dangerous and powerful ballistic missile program. | |
| Everyone under, well, everyone underestimated them. | |
| And they proved the world, they really shocked the world in the 12-day war. | |
| And we're going to talk about this in a little bit more detail about why the ballistic missile program has become basically the forefront of negotiations now. | |
| Okay. | |
| The Israelis and the United States really undersold how badly the Israelis were getting fucked up during the 12-day war. | |
| But now this has become the centerpiece of negotiations and what they want to talk about the most because it caused the Israelis quite a bit of damage. | |
| And quite frankly, the Israeli government was begging for a ceasefire because in a war of attrition, those ballistic missiles were going to level Tel Aviv. | |
| And the Iranians were extremely accurate and extremely lethal. | |
| And they were able to get around the Israelis' air defense. | |
| Okay. | |
| So their ballistic missile program. | |
| So their nuclear program, their ballistic missile program, and they also have a very competent and strong drone program as well. | |
| Okay. | |
| So drones and ballistic missiles. | |
| And then lastly. | |
| They also have a million plus men ready to fight on the ground. | |
| Yes. | |
| Yes. | |
| They have a, a lot of people don't know this as well. | |
| The IRGC and the Iranian military in general. | |
| Okay. | |
| Huge fighting force. | |
| Huge, huge fighting force. | |
| And the other thing you guys got to understand is that Iran's a big country. | |
| Okay. | |
| 90 million people. | |
| It's a big fucking country. | |
| All right. | |
| Compared to Israel's, what, nine or eight million? | |
| Yeah. | |
| And they have a ton of land mass, way bigger than Iraq, way bigger than Afghanistan or similar size almost. | |
| But the issue is the terrain is similar. | |
| And so one of the biggest issues we had when we were fighting in the Middle East, honestly, up until this day, but starting in 2003, we had a really hard time dealing with the terrain. | |
| Iran is very mountainous. | |
| Actually, you can see in this photo right here, Iran is incredibly mountainous. | |
| There's several different biomes that you'll come across in this land and in the Middle East in regards to Iran, Afghanistan, Iraq. | |
| And this is an advantage for the home country. | |
| This is a home court advantage. | |
| These people know their land. | |
| And this is precisely what we saw when the U.S. military was intervening in Afghanistan. | |
| The past, I know this is kind of abrasive to say, whooped our ass for lack of a better term. | |
| And that's just because they were so much more familiar with their homeland and the terrain, how to deal with it, extreme heat. | |
| Tehran is a really interesting position where, in some instances of Iran, you have snowy mountains, but then in other areas of Iran, you have desert that's incredibly hot. | |
| So that's also adds another element of difficulty for the United States and our military to intervene, especially if we get really deep into the waters of war and get boots on ground, which will result in, unfortunately, hundreds of thousands of casualties. | |
| So just a recap. | |
| So Iranians' strengths are this. | |
| You got the acts of resistance, okay? | |
| You have their ballistic missile program, you have their nuclear program. | |
| And then the last thing that they have is the ability to really inflict serious economic damage and what's also known as asymmetric warfare. | |
| The Iranians know they can't beat us in an actual head-on collision war. | |
| Okay, we'll just nuke them. | |
| They'll get destroyed. | |
| It is what it is. | |
| It's over, right? | |
| But what they can do, and what they've proven, actually, which we're going to talk about this as well, is that they can actually make it painful for us to fight them. | |
| Okay. | |
| They can shut down the Strait of Hormuz, which 20 to 30% of the world's oil goes through. | |
| They can hit oil refineries. | |
| They can hit oil fields. | |
| They can really demolish the Gulf. | |
| Okay. | |
| Qatar, Saudi Arabia, all of our allies are sitting ducks where they're at. | |
| And Iran has the capability to hit all of these locations. | |
| They could destroy our military base. | |
| And how do you pronounce it? | |
| I can never pronounce it, bro. | |
| That area, the base in the Middle East, the biggest Eluyad base. | |
| All right, whatever. | |
| I can't pronounce it. | |
| And I'm sorry right now. | |
| But they could hit that base, right? | |
| They already did a symbolic strike on it last year, right? | |
| In June of 2026. | |
| Or sorry, June 2025. | |
| Just so you know, this is when people refer to the Gulf, I feel like a lot of people don't know exactly what that is. | |
| This is the Gulf. | |
| So it spans all the way from Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, all these countries here. | |
| And they damn near border Iran. | |
| The only thing that separates them is the border between Iraq and Iran, as well as the Persian Gulf here and the Strait of Hormuz, which he was just referring to. | |
| So this is kind of the Gulf for a better understanding. | |
| Go ahead, sorry. | |
| Yeah. | |
| So those are the four things that's kept Iran alive in these multiple decades. | |
| Okay. | |
| So again, their ballistic missile program and drone program, which is very sophisticated, one of the best in the world. | |
| Okay. | |
| They have hypersonic missiles. | |
| We don't keep to just to remind you guys. | |
| Okay. | |
| Very advanced. | |
| The Axe of Resistance, which has been weakened significantly. | |
| Bashar is gone. | |
| Hamas has been dismantled. | |
| Hezbollah has been weakened significantly and hasn't been able to replenish. | |
| Their nuclear program, which they've always been a nuclear threshold state. | |
| They have the ability to, and they were going to get a nuclear bomb before they were getting hit by us. | |
| And then obviously, the ability to conduct asymmetric warfare where they're able to not necessarily defeat the United States, but make it where the United States would incur serious casualties and create economic destruction if anything were to happen. | |
| Okay. | |
| So we talked about Iran. | |
| We talked about the history of Iran. | |
| We talked about Israel and their top op, the United States. | |
| And we also talked about their ability to conduct warfare and their strengths. | |
| Let's go into what's been going on over the past few days. | |
| So over the past few days, okay, a drone went out to find the aircraft carrier, the Lincoln, okay, which has been out there with an entire armada of ships. | |
| We don't got a square screen share on this one, Rad. | |
| We could go just regular, just us, right? | |
| And then we'll get in. | |
| And then when you cover your part, you're going to have it. | |
| Sure. | |
| So this drone, guys, was able to get out there and collect vital information before being shot down by a fighter jet. | |
| Now, this drone is domestically made. | |
| It costs about $20,000. | |
| Okay. | |
| It was able to get out there, collect information on where the ships were, the aircraft carrier, all of its defenses, et cetera, before it telegraphed that information back to the Iranians. | |
| And they had to scramble a fighter jet to shoot down this drone. | |
| Now, here's the problem here: that drone is cheap. | |
| They make it domestically, roughly $20,000, maybe if not less, okay? | |
| Because that's probably what they sell to the Russians for. | |
| It's probably less to make. | |
| They have to scramble a fighter jet, which probably costs a bunch of money to scramble it. | |
| And then the missile that they used to shoot down that drone probably costs significantly more than that drone. | |
| I think you guys see where I'm going here. | |
| We're running into the same exact problem that the Israelis ran into when fighting the Iranians. | |
| And since the Iranians are fairly resourceful and make a lot of their own weaponry, besides a lot of their sophisticated stuff, which we're going to talk about that as well, with the Chinese, okay, they have an end they're also in their backyard, right? | |
| And the United States has a very long supply chain that they have to constantly replenish and take care of and to support and protect. | |
| Meanwhile, the Iranians are right there in their backyard. | |
| This puts us at a disadvantage. | |
| Now, I've told you guys this before. | |
| When it comes to warfare, the defending country is always at a waste, has a significant advantage over an invading country. | |
| Okay? | |
| So this drone got shut down, but they were able to go ahead and get the information. | |
| Now, this forced the United States to back up. | |
| They had to push the entire Armada fleet back a bit. | |
| Okay. | |
| On top of that, okay, the United States was slated to have talks with the Iranians in Istanbul, Turkey. | |
| Okay. | |
| And the discussion was supposed to be on three things: their nuclear program, their ballistic missile program, and their support of these proxies in the region. | |
| The Iranians said the only thing that we are open to discuss with you guys is the nuclear program, which they've always used the nuclear program as kind of like a giveaway, right? | |
| They've always refined and risked the uranium to high levels as a negotiation tactic. | |
| This is how the JCPOA came to play, by the way, which my brother explained last time, which I really encourage you guys. | |
| If you guys have not watched that, I think I have a clip on my channel. | |
| My brother explained the JCPOA in detail. | |
| Please go check that out. | |
| If you're not familiar with it, it goes into all the detail how I actually won Trump his 2016 candidacy, right? | |
| So anyway, and then they also said that they wanted to move the meeting location. | |
|
Iran's Nuclear Tactics
00:07:39
|
|
| Where did they want to move it? | |
| Riyadh, do you remember? | |
| So it originally was in Istanbul. | |
| Where did they want to move it? | |
| Oman. | |
| Oman. | |
| Okay. | |
| They wanted to move it to Oman. | |
| The United States said no to both. | |
| They said, we need to talk about your ballistic missile program and your proxy behavior, and we're not going to move to Oman. | |
| And the Iranians said no. | |
| Now, that was a non-starter for Trump because Trump wanted to deal with the ballistic missile program. | |
| He wanted to talk about the ballistic missile program. | |
| And now everything is starting to make sense, by the way. | |
| Why, for a very long time, and I was talking about this with my brother. | |
| If you guys remember, back in April of 2024, if I'm not mistaken, was it 20? | |
| Yeah, I think it was April 2024. | |
| They bombed the Iranian embassy in Syria, right? | |
| And the Iranians did not hit the Israelis hard as I thought they would. | |
| I was like, man, these guys are pussies. | |
| Like, man, these guys are paper tigers. | |
| They're talking about, you know, we're going to promise destruction to the Zionists, blah, blah, blah. | |
| But now I'm starting to see why they didn't do that. | |
| If you guys remember, it took Operation Rising Line, where the Israelis basically did their whole fucking, you know, Pearl Harbor type attack, for the Iranians to actually show some teeth and attack the Israelis back. | |
| And boy, did they fucking hold those Israelis back. | |
| They hit them back very hard. | |
| They had them back so hard that the Israelis had a fucking law at the time. | |
| Ben Gavir and all these guys were arresting journalists for reporting damage in Israel and damage in Haifa, damage in Tel Aviv. | |
| They absolutely demolished them back. | |
| Okay? | |
| And outside of Western media, which is run by them, by the way, outside of Western media, everywhere else in the world was reporting this. | |
| They were taking German journalists and saying, you can't record this. | |
| It's national security. | |
| Even American journalists, like Fox News, I think it was a guy in front of an ambulance. | |
| When the Iranians struck Tel Aviv, they couldn't record it because the Israelis did not want the Iranians and the world to know that they were getting hit back. | |
| And the Iron Dome, the David Sling, and the arrow were failing. | |
| Okay. | |
| Iran showcased some of their ablistic capabilities and they showcased some of their hypersonic missiles. | |
| That, my friends, is why the Israelis are terrified and not launching the first attack. | |
| And also, I'm starting to realize why the Iranians did not showcase some of their firepower. | |
| It invited aggression from the Israelis and the United States. | |
| Because now that the United States and the Israelis know what they're capable of and understand how bad these missiles can actually hurt Israel, it has made it where now the Israelis, if you notice, guys, they're not so care so much about the nuclear weapons anymore. | |
| They care more about the ballistic missile program. | |
| And the scariest part is this, guys. | |
| The Iranians didn't even use their best shit yet. | |
| They did not use their best shit. | |
| Their best shit is pointed at the United States resources. | |
| It's not pointed at Israel. | |
| Those are just the missiles they were able to scramble quickly to attack Israel in retaliation. | |
| So now everything makes sense why the Iranians have been so restrained and used such little firepower and why they've been so cautious in all of their responses. | |
| They understood that by attacking too hard, they show capabilities. | |
| When they show capabilities, this invites aggression from the West. | |
| So anyway, I'm going to turn it over to my brother. | |
| I went over the drone. | |
| I went over the talks. | |
| We predicted this a couple of days ago that they weren't going to be, nothing was going to happen. | |
| I told y'all the first thing they're going to try to do is get rid of their imbalanced missile program, which is exactly what keeps them protected in the first place. | |
| So anyway, Rhea, take it away, bro. | |
| I know you have a lot that you want to cover, but we covered Iran. | |
| We covered the drone. | |
| We covered why the talks fell apart. | |
| We covered the door. | |
| No, that's comprehensive. | |
| That's really good. | |
| And what I was going to kind of get into, and just to kind of tally off of that. | |
| Oh, shit. | |
| Can I read chats real quick, actually? | |
| Yeah, let me read these chats because he's got a lot to cover here. | |
| So let me get these in now. | |
| Okay. | |
| We got here, Mayor Sell, Sub Ninja. | |
| Thanks for the work you're doing. | |
| Your thoughts on Candice Owen spreading conspiracies about TPO San Kirk's death RIP. | |
| I don't cover that stuff, so I don't know. | |
| Martin, how can I get into clipping for you? | |
| Or is that OSS Reigns thing? | |
| Hit up, Brett. | |
| He's not going to talk to you unless you're one of the people. | |
| Good high IQ content. | |
| Thank you, Jason Gerst. | |
| Knightly Wisdom W show checking in. | |
| What the fuck, man? | |
| Is this a Martin Meyer collab? | |
| Why does bro look more like Martin than Marin himself? | |
| Heleni, thoughts on the U.S. warning Algeria that they may impose Qatza sanctions on Algeria over its purchase. | |
| Are you going to cover that, by the way? | |
| No, I was going to just stay strictly Libya because it's more relevant, but I can get into that a little bit. | |
| Yeah, because they bought 14th generation SU-57 fighter jets. | |
| Yeah, I saw that. | |
| I saw that. | |
| And I think that has to do with just the preparation for the war, but I can cover that in a little bit more detail after I tie this all together. | |
| And then I got, let me just make sure I got a missingbody. | |
| Shout out to my favorite San Agas from Gaza. | |
| Thank you. | |
| Martin, how do I get into clipping for you? | |
| I got that one. | |
| Good high IQ content. | |
| Bam. | |
| Can't wait to see your brother's channel blow up. | |
| I think he could be a force in uniting Christian nationals and Muslims against J Control. | |
| Sure. | |
| Your Myron, quick joke. | |
| What's the difference between? | |
| Okay. | |
| Crazy how negotiations get canceled at the same time Wendy's $5 biggie bag went to $8 after tax. | |
| That's an interesting comparison. | |
| W Brothers Real Niggas report. | |
| And then Pizza Gate is definitely Real Myron. | |
| Okay. | |
| Nobody denied it. | |
| All right, bro. | |
| Go ahead. | |
| Take it away. | |
| Yeah. | |
| So, no, it's ridiculous what the U.S. is asking of Iran. | |
| And we're pretty much asking them to cut their legs off. | |
| They're never going to agree to these things. | |
| And so a war is unfortunately imminent. | |
| I was hopeful that these talks would go somewhere. | |
| There's conflicting reports that the talks may not happen or they may happen. | |
| But I see here by the Times of Israel reported just actually about an hour ago, and what more of a reliable source than the actual source itself. | |
| I told you guys we look at Israeli media a lot, bro. | |
| We actually do. | |
| Yeah, and it reads here: U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday said, Iran's supreme leader, Ali Khomeini, quote, should be worried, end quote, in the wake of reports that suggested that planned nuclear talks set for the end of the week were unraveling. | |
| But the reported concerns over a potential breakdown of negotiations due to Iran's insistence that discussions focus on its nuclear programs. | |
| You can share it on screen if you want. | |
| Appear to dissipate later that day. | |
| Yeah, here, I can pull it up for you guys. | |
| Yeah, if you want. | |
| If it doesn't make sense, then don't pull it up. | |
| You're fine. | |
| I'm going to have to screen share for a little while anyway. | |
| So here. | |
| All right. | |
| The stupid ass nigga says, my Oregon outlaw says Mike is low. | |
| No, you're just fucking poor and you got shitty headphones. | |
| Shut the fuck up. | |
| Holy shit. | |
| My OBS is in the red. | |
| If I'm making any live. | |
| Yeah, bro. | |
| My OBS is in the red too, man. | |
| These niggas got Timu headphones. | |
| All right. | |
| So here. | |
| Share. | |
| Your stream should be able to see that. | |
| Okay. | |
| And then my stream should be able to see that as well. | |
| Okay. | |
| Yeah. | |
| They can see it. | |
| Where was I reading from? | |
| But the reported concerns over a potential breakdown of negotiations due to Iran's insistence that the discussions focus on its nuclear program appear to dissipate later in the day. | |
| With the parties confirming that talks initially scheduled to be held in Turkey would be moved to Oman. | |
| So I think the talks are going to happen on Friday. | |
| It's looking hopeful. | |
| But in terms of them coming to an agreement, I don't know about all that. | |
| But what I can say is if Iran does come to the table, that's a good sign. | |
| But like I said in the last stream, it's just a matter of if not when now. | |
|
Libya's Role in Regional Instability
00:15:18
|
|
| But I wanted to turn to some breaking news in Libya. | |
| This happened yesterday, and the BBC reported on it, as well as several other mainstream sources titled here: Libyan Prosecutors Launch Probe into Killing of Gaddafi's Son. | |
| If you guys don't know who Mamma Gaddafi is, he was the former leader of Libya. | |
| He was a revolutionary leader and very powerful before he was killed in 2011 by the NTC amidst the Arab Spring. | |
| But it reads here: Libyan prosecutors say they are investigating the killing of Saif al-Islam Gaddafi, son of the country's longtime leader, Mamma Gaddafi. | |
| The 53-year-old, who was once widely seen as his father's heir apparent, which means his successor, was killed during a direct confrontation with four unknown gunmen who broke into his home in the city of Zintan. | |
| His office said in a statement: The victim died from wounds by gunfire. | |
| Libyan prosecutor said on Wednesday, adding that efforts were underway to identify the gunman. | |
| In a different version of events, his sister told Libyan TV that he had died near the country's border with Algeria. | |
| Saif al-Islam's lawyer told the AFP news agency a quote four-man commando end quote unit carried out an assassination at his home in the city of Zinten, though it was not clear who may have been behind the attack, and I'll get into that. | |
| The public prosecutor's office said forensic experts had been dispatched to Zinten in northwest Libya to conduct investigations. | |
| Saif al-Islam was long seen as the most influential and feared figure in the country after his father, who ruled Libya, so on and so forth, was killed in 2011. | |
| So, what we have here, and I'll stay screen sharing just for a moment because there's a couple other articles I want to show you guys. | |
| But what we have here is obvious intervention. | |
| Now, in terms of the assassination, I'm just speculating. | |
| There's no real evidence yet as to who could have been behind this. | |
| But if we follow the direction of the wind or we see where the wind is blowing, we can gain a little bit of a better idea. | |
| It's really important to understand that this is a direct sign or implication of the war that's imminent in the region. | |
| And here, actually, I'll go full screen for you guys. | |
| Your stream should be able to see me. | |
| Okay. | |
| Bam. | |
| All right. | |
| So it's important to understand this is an implication of the war that's imminent. | |
| I think one of the reasons why this could have potentially happened is it seems that proxy groups, which I'm about to name, are gearing up to grab as much control in the region before everything turns to turmoil. | |
| As Khomeini said in a statement, I think two or three days ago, this is going to be a regional war. | |
| And he's completely right. | |
| And it's precise. | |
| And I'll tell you why. | |
| First things first, the UAE is on an aligned axis with Israel, meaning that they're serving Israel's benefit in their favors in the region. | |
| This has been evident with Sudan. | |
| This has been evident with Somalia. | |
| And now this is evident with Libya. | |
| Why? | |
| I'll tell you why. | |
| One of the leaders in the Middle East, his name is Abdul Khamid Debebe. | |
| This guy is supported by the West, and he's the current interim prime minister of Libya. | |
| He just signed a $20 billion oil deal with two major oil companies, one being based out of France, and then the other one being based out of the United States. | |
| And in signing this, this pointed a lot of eyes, especially for the UAE, to make a move in the region before this guy catches too much power because he does not have total control over the country. | |
| There's other factions in Libya that have control. | |
| Libya is a fractured country just like Yemen. | |
| So there's not one totalian ruler just yet, although there probably will be in the coming years. | |
| And so in doing this, it's evident that the UAE is supporting one of these people. | |
| The person that the UAE is supporting is a guy, Gaddafi, the guy who was killed. | |
| And why was he killed? | |
| There's sources coming out from people as reliable as Reuters and other news articles. | |
| And his name, and he rules, I believe in the East, his name is Haftar, Khalifa Haftar. | |
| And this guy went as far as to say that he's going to take full control of Libya and he got a $4 billion weapons deal from Pakistan that no one knows where he got this money from, by the way, you know, hint potentially Saudi Arabia. | |
| And he also wants to take control of the country. | |
| So in essence, there's a bunch of different factions supported by different countries to try and grab control of the region. | |
| The reason why this matters, if you look back, Saudi Arabia and the UAE were in tandem back in 2019. | |
| They had parallel interests. | |
| They were both fighting Yemen. | |
| Now, in this fight with Yemen, the UAE had split off from Saudi Arabia. | |
| They were initially supporting the central government in Yemen. | |
| Saudi Arabia and Mohammed bin Salman did not want the Houthis, which is the Iranian-backed proxy, to get too close to Saudi Arabian borders. | |
| And so he started arming soldiers in Yemen as well as bombing the hell out of Yemen with weapons that he received from the United States. | |
| I think he was the biggest purchaser of weapons for the United States in 2018. | |
| He started bombing the hell out of Yemen. | |
| UAE backed him here. | |
| The UAE slowly but surely pulled away from that military support in the north of Yemen. | |
| Why? | |
| I wonder why. | |
| They have a certain relationship with a certain country that we've said several times here. | |
| And so the UAE started supporting rogue militant groups in the south. | |
| These rogue militant groups in the south were fighting the Houthis and the government at the same time. | |
| So now you've got the Houthis fighting this government in the south or these governing factions in the south that is supported by the UAE. | |
| And at the same time, you've got the central government being supported by Saudi Arabia. | |
| Everybody's fighting everybody. | |
| This is why Yemen is so fractured. | |
| It's a very difficult war or situation to understand, and it's confused a lot of people. | |
| But there's several different proxy wars going on. | |
| This did one thing, though. | |
| This actually, and this was the mistake of Israel, this eased tensions for the Houthis because the Houthis went back, looked at the bigger picture and said, well, wait, Saudi Arabia and the UAE are fighting on our land right now. | |
| That's why the Houthis have been able to strategically survive despite all of the international tension to remove them from power and remove their military assets because they're infighting in Yemen by the UAE and Saudi Arabia, which is really stupid, by the way. | |
| If the Arab nations had lined up, they could have destroyed the Houthis a long time ago because they're fighting for regional influence via a proxy war. | |
| Israel is, or sorry, Iran is able to capitalize, which is why the Houthis are so strong. | |
| So fast forward in 2024, 2025, UAE and Saudi Arabia have economic tensions, they have disagreements, and they eventually completely branch off. | |
| The entire world sees now it's a public spectacle that these countries are no longer aligned. | |
| Matter of fact, they're opposing each other indirectly by a proxies. | |
| It's more of a shadow war and an economic war than a physical one. | |
| Regardless, what we see today is the UAE is fighting for control in North Africa. | |
| So that's going to be Sudan. | |
| We saw what happened in the capital of Sudan al-Khartou. | |
| They completely destroyed it and leveled it to the ground almost. | |
| And they're kind of getting back on their feet. | |
| And that'll be relevant in a moment. | |
| And they also destroyed neighboring villages, al-Fashid in the south. | |
| Why? | |
| Saudi Arabia and the UAE are fighting for this influence for a reason. | |
| It's not just to be the big bad Arab of the Middle East. | |
| It's more so because oil is no longer the hottest commodity anymore. | |
| It's losing traction quickly. | |
| The world is moving away from oil and it's exponentially losing value. | |
| Probably in the next 10 years, it's not going to be of any value anymore. | |
| If so, it won't be recognizable or reputable. | |
| And so Saudi Arabia is trying to move in a different direction where they capitalize financially off of their tourism as well as their regional influence. | |
| The UAE, same thing. | |
| Here's the caveat. | |
| UAE is ahead of them significantly. | |
| Yep. | |
| But here's the caveat with Saudi Arabia. | |
| They're still the custodians of the two holy mosques. | |
| And although that doesn't bring in a lot of money, it still brings in enough to keep them afloat as well as give them respect from the entire region. | |
| Those two mosques are respected by the entire Muslim world, Sunni or Shia. | |
| So Saudi Arabia has that guarantor of security regardless, whereas the UAE doesn't. | |
| So the UAE has been a lot more extreme in their proxy war, being in Sudan, and now they're getting involved in Libya. | |
| That's why it's pretty obvious that they were supporting a leader in Libya who was killed. | |
| So it seems like one other thing I'll say, too, just to add more credence to what you're saying. | |
| Why do you guys think they fucking took over Gaza? | |
| What have I been telling you guys forever that Gaza was going to become a beach resort, international city? | |
| They already showed, who was it? | |
| Jared Kushner, right? | |
| Literally, we're showing off like plans of what they plan to do with the Gaza Strip. | |
| They're going to turn it into another Dubai. | |
| Dubai set the standard where it's like, okay, we can now make the Middle East profitable off of tourism. | |
| And the Saudi Arabia, who's been competing with the UAE of who has more money and influence in the region from a tourist perspective, is like, you know what? | |
| We need to move forward. | |
| We got to get out of our old, you know, super strict Orthodox Islam mindset. | |
| And we got to, why do you think they legalize alcohol? | |
| They let women drive. | |
| Okay. | |
| They're allowing nightclubs to open up. | |
| Like this has all been happening over the past, what, 10 years, all this has happened, right, Ref? | |
| And Saudi Arabia. | |
| Saudi Arabia understands that the new frontier, you can't rely on oil forever as electric vehicles and everything else like that starts to become more popular. | |
| You need to find other ways to make money. | |
| And Saudi Arabia is catching on that tourism is going to be the way and they're trying to keep up with the UAE. | |
| Now, the other thing that is, and that is exactly why they're trying to take Gaza, because Israel's like, we want some of that money too. | |
| And so does the United States. | |
| So we can do it better than these niggas. | |
| You know, we don't have religious restrictions on us. | |
| We can absolutely take the market from these guys. | |
| So go ahead, keep going, bro. | |
| I just had to add that in there with Gaza as well. | |
| That's the new frontier in the Middle East, guys, is going to be tourism, gambling, booze, and Western, like a Las Vegas type effect in the Middle East. | |
| That's what they're trying to get to. | |
| Yeah, absolutely. | |
| No, that's very important to mention. | |
| A lot of Muslim Arabs will always make the argument that Western intervention destabilized the Middle East, which, for the most part, is absolutely true. | |
| But you do have to kind of point the finger at ourselves here. | |
| There does seem to be some infighting in the Middle East regarding control and influence, and that's because these guys are running out of natural resources that have kept them so delightfully paid for the last 20 years now. | |
| I mean, if you look at Dubai and the Gulf in general, from the 80s to 2005, even the change is, you know, just there is no word for desert and camel and tents to skyscraper in the world. | |
| So it's ridiculous. | |
| But the reason why this is all kind of relevant here to the Iran situation, and I can tie it together, is because it seems that the region is trying its best to stabilize and UAE is losing influence. | |
| So the UAE kind of lost here in Libya because Gaddafi was the guy that the UAE was banking on to take control. | |
| They had their interest in him and they were funding him. | |
| Him being undermined and killed, and some people may point to it being Saudi Arabia. | |
| It's too vague now. | |
| I don't like to be a conspiracy theorist. | |
| And so we need more evidence before I can even make that conclusion. | |
| But it's obvious that the guy was undermined and there were financial motivations behind it. | |
| Who knows what was behind it? | |
| But, you know, one can make the inference that it was Saudi Arabia. | |
| Regardless, if this war takes place and it happens, let's say in the next two days or three days, what we will see is probably a continued escalation of different assassinations across the Middle East, potentially, and even more tensions arising in this region. | |
| Why? | |
| Saudi Arabia and the UAE and these other countries that are kind of shadowy, like Turkey and Qatar, that get involved, but they don't put their name behind it, or at least it's not as obvious. | |
| Their proxy groups and their funding is going to seize because they're going to have to stabilize on the ground in their countries and put money into national security because Iran is probably going to go crazy and attack any country that poses a slightest threat to them. | |
| What this will do is open up the region. | |
| So Sudan may see a big difference. | |
| Libya is going to see a huge difference. | |
| And Yemen, the biggest one, is going to see a very large difference. | |
| Why? | |
| Saudi Arabia is going to pull its funding probably from the core central government in Yemen. | |
| And the Houthis are probably going to lose a little bit of support from Iran as well because they're going to be busy fighting Israel and the United States. | |
| And so you're going to see a really big turnout of civil war, civil unrest in Yemen. | |
| And the problem here is this Iranian-U.S.-Israel conflict is going to further destabilize the Middle East, not even because these countries are going to get involved, but because the small amount of effort that's been put into stabilizing these countries via proxies, via other resources and efforts, are now all going to be directed towards Israel and Iran. | |
| And what little headway or little steam or momentum that we had going towards repairing the Middle East, like these countries, like Sudan, like Libya, and all across really the entire Middle East, is going to be all for nothing. | |
| And the main focus is going to be this huge war between two somewhat nuclear powers, Israel being the nuclear power and Iran being everything but that. | |
| And they're almost at a nuclear weapon. | |
| So that's really important to understand. | |
| If war breaks out with Iran, everything in the Middle East reprioritizes overnight. | |
| Saudi Arabia gets pulled into deeper U.S.-Israel security stack. | |
| I'm sorry, United Arab Emirates gets pulled deeper into the security stack with the U.S. and Israel because they have an access and a security contract. | |
| And proxies like Hezbollah and the Houthis lighten up in Yemen, Lebanon, and the Red Sea. | |
| So Saudi pulls back from these proxy wars while the UAE loses its protection umbrella. | |
| That opens space for Saudi to replace Emirati influence in places like Sudan, Somalia, and Libya. | |
| Meanwhile, even Turkey may exploit some of this opening and expand its footprint too. | |
| So the bottom line here is this: an Iran war forces Saudi into statesman mode, and the UAE goes kind of into bunker mode. | |
| So this is going to hurt the United Arab Emirates, and this is going to help Saudi Arabia. | |
| But there's also a con for Saudi Arabia. | |
| It's going to really hurt their tourism, which they're pushing very hard. | |
| Mohammed bin Salman being the one who proposed the Vision 2030 that he had to push back in this whole futuristic city, the line, and this whole thing like that. | |
| That's going to get pushed back as well. | |
| So this war has a catastrophic shockwave effect across the entire Middle East. | |
| And that's going to directly affect the United States because we have to make sure that we're still capitalizing from a capitalistic perspective in the Middle East, making our money. | |
| getting our deals with Saudi Arabia, which has been weakening over time, and making sure that we can be the main beneficiary and have strong relationships with these countries that have geostrategic positions in places like the Strait of Hormuz and so on and so forth. | |
| So this is just, again, kind of the same redundant message, but a very certain small country in the Middle East is pulling us into an issue that a lot of Americans are going to feel oil prices are going to be very volatile. | |
| The economy is going to be very volatile. | |
| This war is definitely going to affect people in the United States. | |
| Not largely, but there will be some tangible difference for sure, especially over a long period of time, because this is going to be, I love the way certain people frame this. | |
| They call this these forever wars. | |
| I heard Nick say that, and I thought that's a really good way of putting it. | |
| We're probably going to be at war with Iran for, you know, over a year at least. | |
| This is not going to be a situation in Venezuela where we go in and take Maduro out. | |
| By the way, we had assets in Maduro's regime, no doubt. | |
| That's how we were able to seamlessly take him out overnight. | |
| Whereas in Iran, not going to be the case. | |
| We're going to have to have lots of boots on ground. | |
| We're going to have to deal with that difficult terrain that I went over earlier. | |
| And on top of that, they have an insane ballistic missile program, supersonic missiles that will absolutely penetrate our defense systems in our biggest base being in Qatar. | |
| I think it's called the Udayid. | |
| And then is that what you were talking about earlier? | |
| That's what I was talking about earlier. | |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
|
Long Term Consequences
00:11:02
|
|
| I can never pronounce it. | |
| Yeah, the Udayid and then these other large military bases and assets in the Middle East, they're also going to be under a lot of pressure. | |
| And what does this mean in turn? | |
| A lot of U.S. service members could potentially lose their lives. | |
| Ridiculous and absolutely not worth it. | |
| But unfortunately. | |
| Because Iran poses, just so you guys understand, they pose zero, zero, zero threat to the United States. | |
| Okay. | |
| They only pose a threat to the Israelis, which is why we're, you know, projecting all this military might on them and trying to force them to the table. | |
| There's a reason why the Israelis aren't fighting their own battle right now, guys. | |
| They're trying to create a layer of separation because, and this is why the Iranians are saying, look, if the U.S. attacks us, we're going to attack all of your allies in the region. | |
| That's why we're going to make it. | |
| They said they're going to make it a regional war. | |
| Like I said before, the Iranians know that they can't fight the United States haran. | |
| So that's going to have pressure points that make it too painful to continue the conflict, right? | |
| So it's going to be a victory with a lot of losses to get that victory. | |
| And the thing also that the Iranians have to their benefit is the Iranians know that Trump is getting ready to go to midterms. | |
| They know that Trump doesn't really want a war. | |
| And they know that the base is not going to like that. | |
| So they're kind of testing him, right? | |
| To see what he's actually going to do. | |
| Now, there's also a lot of important information that hasn't been reported that I got to talk to you guys about. | |
| The 12-day war was really beneficial for the Iranians because what they were able to do was get all their weak points exposed in real time. | |
| Right after the ceasefire of the six-day war, guess where the Iranians went? | |
| They went to China and they went to Russia. | |
| And they started spending a lot of money. | |
| Okay. | |
| They upgraded their air defense. | |
| And not only did they upgrade their air defense where they're able to detect Planes that escape radar, right? | |
| Like your F-35s and your B-2 bombers and all this other shit. | |
| They also got missile defense systems that shoot these types of aircraft down. | |
| Okay? | |
| So they basically got satellite from the Chinese. | |
| Chinese spy ships have been mobilizing. | |
| Chinese spies have been mobilizing. | |
| And they completely redid. | |
| They basically pulled out all of Iran's old air defense that was either that was Western-based, basically, right? | |
| And they upgraded to all Chinese technology. | |
| All right. | |
| Now, the issue here, right? | |
| You guys got to understand when it comes to modern warfare like this, right? | |
| How you attack is 100% contingent upon your enemy's capabilities. | |
| Okay? | |
| So when the Israelis attacked the Iranians before, they knew what the air defense was like. | |
| They knew that they could sabotage it. | |
| They had assets in country. | |
| So they were able to confidently, right, and safely attack the Iranians. | |
| And not one of their jets got shot down in the process. | |
| Now, their spies got caught in country, right? | |
| That wasn't good, right? | |
| And a lot of them got executed and killed. | |
| But they were able to pull off Operation Rising Lion relatively easy because they knew what the Iranian capabilities were. | |
| All those capabilities that they were able to, all those incapabilities that the Iranians were, that the Israelis were able to exploit, they fixed them. | |
| And not only did they fix them, they fixed them and they upgraded with technology that is comparable, if not better. | |
| Okay? | |
| Now, when it comes to modern warfare and the stakes are high and you're talking about people dying and you're talking about sensitive political situations, right? | |
| You're talking about a country like Israel that can't sustain long-term casualties, that can't sustain long-term warfare because casualties are a big deal for them, or the United States, where casualties at this point are completely unacceptable after the failed Iraq war. | |
| Well, all you have to show is that you have the ability to cause some serious damage. | |
| And by buying weapons and technology from the Chinese that is comparable, if not to the same level, even if it's just a level below, it's still extremely dangerous for the United States. | |
| Why? | |
| Because now a mission that would have been 100% success rate is now a 50% success rate. | |
| Now we're talking about your $2 billion B-2 bomber potentially getting shot down or one of them getting shot down. | |
| These are losses that the United States simply can't sustain at this point politically, especially Trump. | |
| Okay? | |
| So this is the situation that the United States and Israel are in, where we had the riots in the beginning of the year. | |
| They had an opportunity to strike. | |
| But the problem was: okay, we can strike, but are we going to be able to take them out completely? | |
| The answer was no. | |
| And if the answer is no, that means that they're going to hit you back. | |
| If they hit you back, they're going to hit you back really hard, right? | |
| Because at this point, if the United States strikes them, Iran knows it's now or never. | |
| This is an existential conflict now. | |
| Okay? | |
| So they're going to start hitting oil fields. | |
| They're going to bomb Saudi Arabia. | |
| They're going to hit the base in the Gulf. | |
| They're going to start shooting bombs into Israel. | |
| Hypersonic missiles. | |
| Israel's going to have to deal with Tel Aviv getting bombed again. | |
| Right? | |
| So the Iran that they attacked in June is not the same Iran now because you guys got to understand, right? | |
| And this is another thing, too, when it comes to military campaigns and shit like that. | |
| The Iranians saw what Israel and the United States can do. | |
| So they're able to collect an enormous amount of information. | |
| And what did they do? | |
| They refined their defenses to combat our attack strategy. | |
| Okay. | |
| So now, when we try to use our superior air power or when the Israelis come in with those jets, the Iranians bought weaponry and tools that literally counter the enemy that the Chinese all have, by the way. | |
| So now Trump has to think twice before doing anything because the Iranians have fortified their defenses to literally combat American and Israeli fighter jets, naval assets, etc. | |
| And the United States is well aware of that. | |
| And I think there was a super chat earlier that asked about Algeria. | |
| I believe the United States threatened Algeria with sanctions because they were buying military aircrafts or fighter jets from the Soviets. | |
| And the main issue and the main concern of the United States, and this is something that stemmed ever since the Cold War, I said Soviets, Russia, same thing. | |
| But this is a fear that always existed since the Cold War and the inception of the Cold War was Soviet influence in the East. | |
| And we're seeing that slowly grow. | |
| And so long as we distract ourselves with getting involved in unnecessary and irrelevant foreign wars and intervention in the Middle East, the Soviets can sneakily go around the lines and arm these different countries that will pledge allegiance to them. | |
| And that'll be able to undermine not only our power, but our ability to threaten them militarily. | |
| And another thing to keep in mind is we're kind of already at a disadvantage when it comes to our currency. | |
| That's why we did what we did in Venezuela. | |
| And you broke that down beautifully. | |
| A lot of people think that the Venezuela thing, several different reasons, but I find the main reason was because our currency is starting to become insecure. | |
| Britain is becoming a threat. | |
| Other countries in the East are leveraging Venezuela and they're not listening to Trump. | |
| They weren't listening to Trump from the beginning. | |
| And they had warnings actually from the Obama administration to tighten things up. | |
| So the intervention in Venezuela was a long time coming. | |
| I wasn't surprised that it happened. | |
| Everybody's mad from this like whole moral perspective. | |
| You got to look at the grand scheme of things. | |
| The reason why we did it is because our natural resources, despite I believe we're still the number one oil producer right now, because the Middle East is falling behind, we're falling behind big time in our reserves of natural resources. | |
| And not only that, though, the oil that we make isn't the oil that our refineries are built around. | |
| Our refineries in Louisiana and Texas and shit like that is built for the oil that comes from the Middle East and from Venezuela. | |
| Like that's what our entire oil infrastructure was built around. | |
| So the reserves that we, the oil that we manufacture here isn't the oil that our infrastructure is built around refining. | |
| Sorry, go ahead. | |
| No, no, no. | |
| No, great, great point to make there. | |
| And another thing that's very important to realize as well, this is another kind of goal of these Middle Eastern factions like the UAE and Saudi Arabia. | |
| The reason why they're meddling in these countries in North Africa is because North Africa is abundantly rich in rare earth or precious metals. | |
| And that seems to be one of the main commodities that's going to be in demand in the coming years, especially in Sudan. | |
| They have a ton of gold. | |
| And that's why the UAE has already exploited and capitalized on tons and tons of gold. | |
| And their gold reserves jumped significantly. | |
| Matter of fact, in 2019, Russia had sanctions put on them by the United States, or they were dealing with sanctions from other countries. | |
| And so they looked to Sudan for gold. | |
| And Sudan gave them a ton of gold. | |
| And in turn, the day they invaded Ukraine, bro, Hameti was in Russia, bro. | |
| He was in Moscow. | |
| Bitch ass nigga. | |
| He was there. | |
| Yo, he was in Moscow the day they invaded, bro. | |
| Yeah, no one knows that. | |
| Dropping off a bunch of gold. | |
| And in turn, the Russians gave us a bunch of military assets that helped us kind of fight off or fend off the UAE or the RSF, which is the militia that the UAE and Dubai are backing. | |
| And so this is like all going in tandem. | |
| This is all connected. | |
| And I don't want to be a nut here and draw this conspiracy board with pictures of evidence and red lines drawing to a conclusion, but you can kind of see that this is drifting in the direction of us intervening in the Middle East. | |
| I'm not, you know, anti-intervention. | |
| I think that what we did in Venezuela could potentially be beneficial short term, but long term, we're going to feel the benefits. | |
| And like you had mentioned before. | |
| I think short-term benefits, but long-term, long-term problems is what I think. | |
| Long-term. | |
| I think it was a bad idea, but I mean. | |
| No, we lost our moral high ground. | |
| Yeah, it was stupid, in my opinion. | |
| We can't wag our finger in Russia's face anymore and tell them we can't fit in that. | |
| And then we go and remove a leader overnight like that. | |
| And I don't really care. | |
| Like, again, from a moral perspective, I think it's silly to talk about, oh, that was messed up. | |
| Look, Venezuela's happy. | |
| Maduro and the Chavez regime, they were vicious dictators and they capitalized off of the drug trade and they still did have a drug problem. | |
| And so what we did was not entirely evil. | |
| But in the grand scheme of things, over a long period of time, I think it's just going to be a bad idea that's fruitless. | |
| And we're not going to see any benefits from it over the coming years. | |
| Yeah, we might have a little bit of a boom now, but it's going to hurt us later. | |
|
Regime Change Needed
00:04:24
|
|
| And it's not going to offset like the other thing, too, is like people are like, oh, yeah, well, it's because we're going to go ahead and go to war with the Iranians and they're going to shut down our shared remote or whatever. | |
| Like, yo, if that happens, we're all going to feel it no matter what, what we got in Venezuela. | |
| Okay. | |
| Because it's going to take time to, you know, get that whole thing set up properly and everything else like that and get the oil coming and flowing and everything. | |
| Like it's still an infrastructure and a supply line that needs to be, it needs to be set up and set up set up in a certain way. | |
| But the reality is, is that this conflict might come sooner than we expect. | |
| Right. | |
| And the fact that they canceled talks, I'm surprised. | |
| I knew that the talks weren't going to get anywhere, but for them to not even meet up, I didn't think that was going to happen. | |
| I thought they would at least meet, bro. | |
| But now they're not even going to meet. | |
| Iran is sick and tired of this shit. | |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| It really doesn't work. | |
| You can't be mad at them. | |
| Yeah. | |
| I've always told people, and I've said this many times, and I tell this to my friends when I'm educating this on this matter. | |
| I'm not a Persian apologist. | |
| I don't have a vested interest in Iran. | |
| I have no dog in this fight, to be quite frank with you. | |
| But Iran definitely has a valid grievance in not trusting the United States. | |
| We've undermined them several times. | |
| We've done crazy betrayal and backblowing deals to them. | |
| So it's only right for them to not want to step to the table, especially when we're asking them for unrealistic demands. | |
| Trump is being a maximalist. | |
| And right now, he kind of needs to be a minimalist to avoid war. | |
| And then we can slowly work towards the finish line and hopefully getting them to stop at least their missiles. | |
| But that's their main asset that's protected them, especially in the summer in this 12-day war. | |
| Go ahead. | |
| Yeah, no, I was going to say his brinksmanship is not a look. | |
| And I was explaining this to my audience earlier. | |
| Trump practices a style of negotiation called brinksmanship. | |
| Okay. | |
| And what he basically does, brinksmanship is the practice where you take the deal or the agreement or the grievance all the way almost to like the edge. | |
| And then you kind of tell the person when you're at the edge, all right, let's talk. | |
| Right. | |
| And he does this all the time. | |
| Now, the reason why this is a problem now is because the Iranians don't have the position of disadvantage that they had before. | |
| Okay. | |
| They've refined their defenses. | |
| Okay. | |
| They have missiles that can actually destroy your ally, which is why your ally is terrified to actually hit them this time, right? | |
| The Israelis are pussy. | |
| Like they did, that 12-day war literally like made them like it red-pilled them. | |
| Okay. | |
| Made them realize that they are not as invincible as they thought they were. | |
| And now I'm seeing, like I said earlier, now I'm seeing why the Iranians were being so measured in their responses back to Israel. | |
| Every time Israel would attack them, they'll send over like a symbolic strike here. | |
| They'd attack a little airbase here. | |
| They'd do some bullshit here. | |
| But when the 12-day war happened and they got the fucking Pearl Harbor event and they actually hit Tel Aviv for real, for real, they had to have known right there. | |
| And it's interesting because they said, yeah, this war is not over. | |
| We're going to have to have another one. | |
| Because once they saw Iranian capabilities, now the Israelis can literally say they cannot exist. | |
| They do not have a right to, they do not, they cannot exist. | |
| We have to get rid of their regime now because it's interesting because it's like a catch-22, right? | |
| And this is why I think they've they've they funded their proxy so much because it created a layer of defense where they wouldn't have to show their capabilities. | |
| Because once you show your capabilities, it's like a catch-22 because you defend yourself, you make your opponent fear you, and make them think twice about hitting you. | |
| But now they have even more resolve to destroy you because now you're an actual threat. | |
| You've displayed to them that you can destroy them, and when you show them that you can actually destroy them, they cannot have that in the region, right? | |
| Yeah, so I think that the 12-day war was very eye-opening for the Israelis. | |
| It made them realize that they're mortal and it made them like say, Okay, now we have to have a regime change. | |
| Before, right now, regime change, regime change. | |
| We were just kind of laughing at this nigga, like, all right, bro, like, whatever. | |
| But now, when he says regime change, they're like, Yeah, we kind of have to, yeah, we kind of have to do it now because, like, these dudes kind of do have some crazy missiles that could like fuck us up and shit. | |
| Um, those supersonic missiles, the videos of those hits, yo, were insane. | |
| Yo, there's a reason you can't find those missiles hitting on Western media. | |
| Fox News, ABC, MSNBC, none of them showed these hypersonics hitting at least not on prime time. | |
| I they did not show any of those hypersonics hitting uh Tel Aviv and Israel or all the things on like obscure news sites or like X, but in terms of mainstream media, you weren't gonna see any of that. | |
