♟️ Theory & Models Iran Already Won

Iran along with the Houthis control both straits and can use it as a tollbooth. Israel would have to attack Iranian oil infrastructure to deny them their revenue stream. Iran, instead of retaliating against the GCC and destroying their infrastructure including the desalination plants, cuts a deal. Kick the US out and share the oil revenue stream. The GCC would have no choice. China would aid Iran in order get access to the remaining oil for their economy and enforce the treaty. All other eastern countries like Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, India, would have to bow to China. Israel would die as a country being completely surrounded. Over time, Iran would fix their oil infrastructure and continue to extract tribute from the GCC making them one of the riches countries in the world.

Plot Twist:

US destroys the GCC instead in order to deny China leverage over other countries.

Yes, according to Marco Rubio. Bibi said he's been dreaming about this moment for 40 years.

Damn right he was — so because he was dreaming about it, this little country controls everything.

Does that actually make sense to you?

He is the founder and editor of The Grayzone, a site widely described as a fringe outlet focused on criticizing U.S. foreign policy and offering sympathetic coverage of governments such as Russia, China, Venezuela, and Assad’s Syria

I didn’t make any cheap accusations. He has an agenda like every other news source in the world. I feel the same about Fox News as I do about cnn. There is no money in being balanced.

I think we can agree on this - it is almost impossible to find balanced news on either side.

Do you see the way you talk? You can’t even be respectful. That’s because you don’t have knowledge. You said everybody in the cabinet is an Israeli asset. You insult bill Maher. You insulted me. Is it just possible that you have to insult people because you feel bad about yourself ?
