Laith touched on the nuclear “threat” from Iran, but the far-greater threat is Israel. Iran has already displayed their superiority in conventionally-equipped drones and long-range missiles. Iran demonstrated their ability to target specific houses in Israel, with reconnaissance drones, then take them out with precision missiles. These are no longer the Hezbollah “bottle-rockets”. Even the Houthis were able to target the US aircraft carriers, with the resulting loss of two, almost three, $50 m Hornets. Iran has far greater capabilities, including powerful, Russian electronic jamming systems, far beyond the capability of western countermeasures.
Israel is war-weary, and stretched militarily, even with a few thousand foreign mercenaries. The hunter has become the prey, with its back to the wall. I just hope there are enough US advisors in Israel to disable their nukes, if it comes to that… 😱
"Persons of conscience" and "US Advisors"??? are not going to stop Israel's quest for Self Immolation!
Neither the US, nor Israel are moral countries; There are many examples proving this: If you doubt me, tell me how many years Madeline Albright served as Secretary of State, after she gleefully proclaimed that "1/2 Million dead Iraqi children was worthwhile" for destroying a country that did not threaten the US"???? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madeleine_Albright
10:30-40; David North [International Editor, World Socialist Web Site] once referenced Nuremberg, and the fact that today’s war crimes would be prosecuted likewise and added, ‘if I had anything to say about it, the original sentence would apply.’
I concur.
On another matter, consider doing a presentation on strategic escalation.
The whole working class must rise up and put an end to current tendencies. If this does not occur, the consequences for humanity will be apocalyptic.
Thank you for your work, Dimitri. Much appreciation for your guest.
I’m only 1/3 of the way through. You don’t need to be pro-Hamas. If you have a conscience about the genocide of the Palestinian people, this is a must-watch.
