Larry Johnson: Trump Goes Nuclear on Pickaxe Mountain as Hormuz and Bab al-Mandab Tighten

from Dialogue Works

In this eye-opening analysis, we break down the escalating Middle East crisis and the severe limitations of US military power. Discover why strikes on hardened sites like Pickaxe Mountain are futile, and how nuclear escalation would trigger a global catastrophe. We explore the logistical impossibility of a US ground invasion, the failure of naval coalitions to secure the Strait of Hormuz and Bab al-Mandab, and the devastating ripple effects on global oil prices and shipping insurance. Learn how Yemen’s strategic pressure could force Saudi Arabia to negotiate, why Israel cannot afford a conflict with Turkey, and the geopolitical blunders of nations aligning too closely with Washington. A must-watch for understanding modern warfare and global trade dynamics! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
