Alastair Crooke: BREAKING: Trump Eyes Iran's Pickaxe Mountain—"We'll Knock It Out Fast"

Will the US attack Iran — and is a tactical nuclear strike really on the table? This interview breaks down the threats around Pickaxe Mountain, Iran's mass mobilization and missile exercises, and why a limited strike may serve a narrative rather than a military goal.

The conversation then widens the lens: Iran, Ukraine and Yemen as theatres of one larger struggle over global order. Included: Hormuz, oil market manipulation, high diesel prices, Saudi Arabia's economic exposure, Houthi leverage in the Red Sea, undersea data cables, and the fragility of Egypt and the Gulf states.
