Iran War Restart | Likelihood of WW3 | Europe's Drone War

In this episode, we dive deep into the rapidly escalating tensions in the Middle East as indications point toward an imminent US and Israeli kinetic war with Iran. We discuss how this disastrous foreign policy could lead to Gulf States abandoning the US, effectively ending the Petrodollar and US hegemony. We also explore the dangerous unpredictability of Donald Trump, the shifting realities of drone warfare bypassing mass conscription, the total destruction of US soft power over Gaza, and the latest updates on Russia's slow war of attrition in Ukraine.
