The Iran War Expert: The Most Dangerous Stage Begins Now

Iran has figured out that we can't beat them. We're not weakening Iran. We have strengthened Iran, and we can't stop. There drone attacks and what you're seeing is far more chaotic decision making is happening in the White House than's happening in the government of Iraq. And it's evidence Trump is losing power. So when I look through the response to the last conversation, the audience had lots of different types of questions. Like there's ninety odd million people stuck right in the heart of this that often don't really have a voice. What do you think happens next for them? And what is Israel's role in this? Well, Israel's playing two roles here that have not helped us correctly assess the situation. And we'll talk about that. And then what do you think happens with Europe? NATO is for all practical purposes dead. And what happens next? So for 21 years, I laid out what a hypothetical bombing campaign of Iran would look like. And when I was here last time, every single thing we talked about unfolded in the first several weeks of the war.

So when you did this 21 years of modeling these attacks, how did America come out of this situation? So there was a consistent set of findings and America can bomb them, attack them. We could even threaten to murder all 92 million of them. But the bottom line is That is the real danger for us. Guys, I've got a favor to ask before this episode begins.

Uh Professor Robert Pabe. Good to see you again. Great to see you again, Steven. It's been four weeks since we sat down and talked about everything that was happening in the war, and it's all moved at light speed. You made some predictions then, many of them have come true already, and many of them still unfolding, but I wanted to get you back to talk about What the hell is going on? And I think that's kinda how I started last conversation.
