And so what we're seeing is really the puncturing of the aura of invincibility and inviability that sustained American hegemony for the past 20 years, especially after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

And this is really a reordering of not just the global economy,

Because this signals the collapse of the petrodollar and with it, the entire US dollar-based reserve currency system, but also the global hegemony of the United States.

We're moving towards a multipolar world.

Right, so everyone says that the worst calamity that could happen in the United States is if it were to send ground troops into Iran.

At the same time,

The United States are committed to regime change in Iran.

We've never had a precedent in history where you were able to regime change from the air alone.

You need ground troops.

And so unfortunately, what's going to happen over the next few months is that pressure will build on America to send ground troops, especially from the GCC countries and from Israel, which are being pounded right now by the Iranians.

So remember that if the GCC countries, Saudi Arabia,

Qatar, UAE, Iran, if they go, then the petrodollar goes with them.

So the Americans need to protect these countries.

And these countries are going to demand that either the Americans bribe the Iranians to cease, and this is like $520 in indemnity, okay?

Mm-hmm.

or send ground troops to wipe out the Iranian threat once and for all.

And I know that there's no political will for ground troops to be used against Iran among the American people.

But remember that 78% of American people was against initial strikes against Iran in the first place.

So I've always argued that both Saudi Arabia and Israel are heavily invested in regime change in Iran.

In fact, Saudi Arabia sees Iran as much more of an existential crisis than Israel.
