Matthew Hoh: Iran & US Hit Absolute ROCK BOTTOM

Tensions escalate in the Strait of Hormuz as the US and Iran clash over MOU interpretations, with Trump declaring the agreement void. Despite threats of further strikes, analysis suggests a return to full-scale war remains unlikely due to global economic pressures, particularly oil flow. The discussion highlights Israel’s growing concern over US-Turkey relations and potential F-35 sales. A major focus is the massive funeral for Iran’s late Supreme Leader, which defied Western narratives of internal dissent. Finally, the interview examines controversial US legislation aiming to deeply integrate Israeli military and intelligence operations into the Pentagon, effectively insulating US-Israel policy from public opinion or congressional oversight.
