Iran War Stalls | Gulf States Rebel | Israel Cornered

In this episode, we dive into the chaotic developments in the Middle East, starting with the sudden pause of the US military's "Project Freedom." Are Gulf states like Saudi Arabia and Kuwait actively rebelling by denying the US airspace and base access? We discuss Iran's strategy of economic endurance, the limits of American military supremacy, and whether we are witnessing the real-time collapse of US hegemony. Finally, we explore the intense pressure from Israel to resume the war and the growing demand in Washington to expose Israel's undeclared nuclear program.
