Larry C. Johnson: Iran’s Missiles DEVASTATE Tel Aviv & Haifa as New Supreme Leader Takes Power

Deep dive into the escalating Iran-Israel conflict and US military involvement. Iran's successful strikes on advanced radar systems have degraded US/Israeli defensive capabilities, reducing missile warning times significantly. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz threatens 21% of global oil transit, risking a worldwide economic crisis as prices surge. Gulf Arab states face imminent food and water shortages as maritime traffic halts. Russia and China emerge as key diplomatic players while US regional influence wanes. Analysis suggests military victory over Iran remains unlikely given its size, terrain, and defensive capabilities. Rising oil prices fuel global inflation and economic uncertainty. Discussion covers shifting public opinion on Middle East policy, challenges to dollar supremacy, and the likelihood of a negotiated settlement rather than unconditional surrender. Also examines GCC vulnerability, India's energy dependency, failed Western strategies, and the broader consequences of escalation for the international order. Hosted on Acast.
