About this episode

In this episode, we dive into the escalating tensions in the Middle East as the US seemingly preps for a major military strike against Iran. We discuss the performative nature of recent negotiations, the catastrophic global economic impact of a Strait of Hormuz blockade, and whether the US military has the munitions to sustain a prolonged war. We also explore the implementation of Palantir AI drones, the threat to the Petrodollar, and take a deep, critical look at Israel's societal mindset, ethno-supremacism, and the moral injury affecting IDF soldiers. Are we watching the accelerated decline of the US empire?
