Let's be clear. The US and Israel are losing BADLY.
Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz
That strait controls 20% of the world's oil, 25% of the world's natural gas and 35% of the world's fertilizer (we are entering the planting season for like 70% of the world's arable land).
There are no feasible military options to reopen the strait. UNDERSTAND THAT. There are no feasible military options.
Western allies-Europe, Japan, S. Korea, Australia, India, Taiwan all rely heavily on oil from the gulf. Taiwan has enough oil for like 10 days of power left. Then their industries go black.
Who has oil? Russia.
We are pushing these nations towards Russia and China.
the Gulf state's relationship with the United States was based on our security guarantees. That is being shown to be a paper tiger. Now the gulf states have limited options for security, but they are likely to take serious body blows to their economies.
Make no mistake, Iran will be dictating terms to the US and Israel.
And that will be HUMILIATING.
And it all didn't have to happen
A weapon of mass destruction (WMD) is a nuclear, biological, chemical, radiological, or other device intended to kill or injure large numbers of people and cause significant damage to infrastructure or the environment. They are characterized by their ability to produce high-casualty events, unlike conventional weapons.
Can jeff explain how a handmade hand grenade is a WMD
