What recent events are escalating tensions in the Middle East?
Pray, my friends, that this is not the beginnings of World War III. And I know for some time, many people have loved to say that phrase, World War III. I mean, I myself have put it in many a title on one of my videos. But what we are witnessing now in Iran may very well be something substantially greater than just an incursion, a campaign, a military strike. Most of you, of course, know the biggest news in several decades. The U.S. has launched strikes on Iran, killing its supreme leader, wiping out much of its government. But the fighting rages on. Of course, Iran isn't necessarily on its own the biggest threat to the United States. It, of course, does pose a threat. to the U.S. in the region. They have funded attacks on U.S.
troops. They have armed militia groups.
How are Iran's actions impacting US military presence in the region?
They have basically, let's just say, spread instability in the region. They are now closing the Strait of Hormuz unjustly and attacking civilian tankers trying to transport goods and oil. They have threatened the Red Sea. Certainly, Iran has been a regional problem. But the issue goes beyond this. The invasion of Venezuela. Now, Israel launching ground strikes with troops into Lebanon. It is expanding. It is much more than Iran. And the invasion, the attack on Venezuela, the capture of Maduro is 100% related to what is going on right now in Iran. The question then becomes, do the BRICS nations stand by? Will China let this happen? You know, part of me says they probably will. And this signals the United States, let's just call it empirical power, is back.
The question is, will China let it happen?
What is the significance of Israel's invasion of Lebanon?
Because if the U.S. is successful in its operation in Iran, U.S. global dominance is reaffirmed. And this means a lot. It certainly does. The one thing I'll say is American Standard of Living is going to go straight up. And I know there's a lot of people who don't like the war and are mad about it. But we can talk about economics, the petrodollar, the liberal economic order, all of these plans. And we'll start here from the beginning. And then I'm going to break down exactly why we are in this war. And I will start in no unclear terms. I do not. do not support U.S. strikes on Iran. However, I am also not a staunch anti-interventionist, libertarian or leftist or pro-Islamic.
How do the BRICS nations influence the geopolitical landscape?
My attitude is largely we have a bad track record on strikes in the Middle East in this capacity. Toppling the Iranian government may play out like the last time we did the same thing or with any other government and prove to create further instability in the region. It can potentially, nay, it is likely to, in my opinion, get worse. That being said, I am not someone who thinks there is never, never a time for intervention. I am typically in anti-intervention and the argument as presented, I've stated it already, Where we are now is that it appears the moves made against Venezuela have not sparked a massive detriment thus far. The moves on Iran may very well soon. But there are questions about whether or not we should, should not.
There are questions about whether or not Iran actually was producing nuclear weapons. And I will say this. Iran's government was very bad. It will be a good thing if they are completely dismantled and new secular government or let's just call it reasonable, stable government forms that isn't seeking to destabilize the region. That will be a very good thing. There are ultimately there are questions. Are the actions being taken by the U.S.
What are the potential economic consequences of military actions?
going to produce stability or instability? Will we get an excess of collateral damage and civilian deaths? Will any of that be worth it? These are questions that I find it very, very difficult to answer. But right now we are seeing a general split. Most people are opposed to the strikes on Iran. Of course they are. Right now we don't know what the aftermath will be. And it seems increasingly likely there will be boots on the ground. And what does that mean? It means... Well, it means things are getting more expensive than to get worse for Americans. We're going to see a bunch of fake news in the media.
