Munitions and Manoeuvres_ The Risk of Conflict with Iran
from Conspiracy Theories Exploring The Unseen · host Michael Fortune
In recent conversations, General Dan Caine, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, raised alarm bells in the Oval Office, warning President Trump about the United States' military readiness for a potential conflict with Iran. His focus was clear: the critical shortages of munitions and the lack of international backing are putting U.S. personnel at risk and could hinder operational success.Let’s unpack that a bit. The U.S. military’s stockpile has faced severe depletion lately, not from lack of effort, but due to ongoing commitments. Right now, we’re heavily invested in defending Israel and providing support to Ukraine in their ongoing conflict, which has stretched our resources thin. Just to give you a picture, while U.S. supplies are dwindling, Ukrainian forces are expending an alarming 6,000 to 8,000 artillery shells daily. That’s a consumption rate that far outpaces what the U.S. can currently produce.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/conspiracy-theories-exploring-the-unseen--5194379/support.
