I hope everyone had a nice break and welcome back to the end of the world.
So, as you know, World War II has started. United States and Israel have
started. United States and Israel have start to attack Iran and we are now in the fourth day of this
war. And we can expect this war to last
war. And we can expect this war to last for many weeks, possibly also for many years. But I promise you that after this
years. But I promise you that after this war is done, the world will never be the same again. So what what we will do
same again. So what what we will do these next few weeks is use game theory and understand and analyze the geopolitical situation.
And so I'm going to teach you the ideas, the theories, the techniques to understand the world around you and make predictions. and we can know if our
predictions. and we can know if our analysis is correct because all this is happening in real time and so we can test it against reality. All right, so
let's go over some basic facts about what's happened so far. So in the early morning of Saturday uh in Tran the
Israelis and Americans launched a decapitation strike against the Alatona uh Hami who is the supreme leader of
Iran. Now there are
Iran. Now there are arguments and and disputes about as to what happened. The Americans and
what happened. The Americans and Israelis said that they had real intelligence about where the leader was and so they sent airplanes to just bomb
the crap out of a place. They also had a spy who was able to record the body of the dead to this was announced. At first, the
Iranians denied this and the Iranians insisted he was still alive. But
eventually, state media um admitted that he did die in the air strike. But then
what they also said is that they had told he's 86 years old and he chose to die. He could have gone to Moscow, but
die. He could have gone to Moscow, but instead he chose to stay in Tran and die for his people. But not only that, but
he died along many of his relatives. He
died along with his daughter, his son-in-law, his grandchildren. So the
entire So many of the family died in this assault.
Also, there's been reporting that he had prostrate cancer. Okay? So he was going
prostrate cancer. Okay? So he was going to die fairly soon as well. So what you need to understand first about the war is that even though the Americans and
the Israelis claim great success in decapitating the leadership of the Iranians from the Iranian perspective
this is a martyrdom martyrdom. Okay.
And so the religion of the Iranians is called Shia um Muslim. And this is different from
um Muslim. And this is different from Sunni Muslim. So uh Sunnis are the majority.
Muslim. So uh Sunnis are the majority.
They're about 9% of all Muslims in the world. The Shia have always been the
world. The Shia have always been the minority. And as such, they've always
minority. And as such, they've always been persecuted. So in the Shia faith,
been persecuted. So in the Shia faith, the core value, the force that binds everyone together and gives them purpose and meaning in life, that galvanizes
them into action is the idea of martyrdom, which forces jihad. to
sacrifice yourself for your religion.
Sacrifice yourself for the common good.
So think of the death of Kam as a sacrifice, a self-sacrifice in order to motivate their radiance in this war.
Okay? So that's the first thing you need to understand that for the Iranians, this is not a biblical war. This is not an economic war. This is not a war of resistance. This is a jihad. Okay?
resistance. This is a jihad. Okay?
Right? It's a war against the great Satan to avenge their leader. They will
fight to the death. All right? That's
number one. Number two is this.
Also, that morning when um the was killed, they really struck a school in the south of Tran killing about 150
school children. These are girls in
school children. These are girls in primary school. And again, there's not
primary school. And again, there's not debate and argument as to what happened.
This really said that first of all, the school was next to a military base. We
are targeting military base. And second
of all, it wasn't us which struck the school. It was a air defense missile
school. It was a air defense missile that went off course. Okay. And the
Iranians insisted no. The the Israelis purposefully attacked the school to kill the school children. And then you're like, why would the Israelis do that?
But then these few years, well, we've seen what they've done in Gaza, in Palestine to the Palestinians, and it's pretty consistent what the Israelis have been doing. All right? So this action
been doing. All right? So this action against the Israelis, it's meant to show to themselves in the world that we are now allin. Okay? We've made the
now allin. Okay? We've made the sacrifice. We are now committed to this
sacrifice. We are now committed to this war to win this war at all costs and this action has also provoked the Iranian people to resist with their full
might. Okay. So I want you to keep this
might. Okay. So I want you to keep this in mind and again we don't have complete evidence that it's the Israelis who did this but given past actions from the
Israelis this is fairly consistent with what they've done. Okay. So we can assume that this is something that do did why they did this what the purpose
is something we we will discuss as we move on okay it's very complicated next I want to show you this this is Dubai and Dubai is considered one of the
wealthiest safest cities in the world there are thousands tens of thousands of westerners who move to Dubai because it's clean you don't pay any taxes you
make a lot of money and you there are great restaurants and this is really the economic model of Dubai. It's one of the
Gulf the GCC countries, okay? The Gulf
uh coastal countries. And for the longest time, Dubai had a really good deal because they were under the protection of the American military. So
they didn't have to pay for defense.
They and then they were in the Middle East, which is the oil producing um center of the world. And so they focus on aviation, they focus on logistics, they focus on finance, on tourism. They
be extremely wealthy, right? I'm not
sure if you've taken Emirates, one of the best airlines in the world. So their
airport, Dubai airport, is the busiest in the world. And Dubai for the longest time was flourishing under American
protection. And Dubai said to the world,
protection. And Dubai said to the world, listen, we're like Switzerland. We're
neutral. We don't want any involvement in any wars. we're here just to take care of our citizens, to make sure every has a good time to make money. And then
right after the war started, the Iranians attacked the uh GCC. Okay, Dubai, Abu Dhabi,
uh Ban, Qatar, Kuwait, they attacked these places and these places were like, "What's going on? We're neutral, man. We're not
on? We're neutral, man. We're not
involved in this war." and the airport was shut down in Dubai. At at one point, rich the rich people in Dubai were
willing to pay about 250,000 US dollars just get on a plane and get out of there. Okay.
there. Okay.
So, um the reality is this. For the
longest time, Dubai had a reputation for being safe and that's why people move their money there. Guess what, guys?
After what the Iranians did, it's dead.
Dubai as a city in the long term it is dead because you're a wealthy westerner.
You're not going to move to a place where it could be attacked any time by the Iranians. You might move to
the Iranians. You might move to Singapore. You might move to Hong Kong,
Singapore. You might move to Hong Kong, Japan, South America, but you're not moving to Dubai. Okay. So, the big question for us is why do I do this? It
would say it's really Americans who attack you. Why go after the GCC? All
attack you. Why go after the GCC? All
right. and not only that, but they're escalating the attacks against the GCC.
So, it's something that we will look at very closely today. Well, the short answer is because these places, even though they they pretend to be neutral,
they house the American military. They
allow the Israelis and Americans to use their airspace to attack Iran from. All
right. So, this is Bahrain. Now, Bane is interesting, okay? Because I I want you
interesting, okay? Because I I want you guys to remember this, but Bane will probably be one of the major centers of this conflict because first of all, this is the um American fifth fleet. All
right, this is their naval base in the Middle East. And as you can see, the
Middle East. And as you can see, the Iranians are attacking it with missiles and it's being blown up. Bin is
interesting because it has about 50% or even more. Okay. Shia, which is the
even more. Okay. Shia, which is the religion of the Iranians, but the people in charge are the Sunnis.
And so what is the what makes this strike really important for from our perspective is first of all, not only are the Iranians attacking US military
assets, not only are they destroying the economies of the GCC, but they're also also trying to ignite a religious war, right? If you're Shia, you're loyal to
right? If you're Shia, you're loyal to the Aatollah. And if he's dead, then you
the Aatollah. And if he's dead, then you must as a religious obligation now commit jihad against your enemies. And
it's no different in other religions where listen, if you want to kill the Pope, the Catholics would be really angry at you and they would want to kill you, right? So now you have the Shia who
you, right? So now you have the Shia who will probably eventually arise creating a revolution in Ban. Okay? Okay. So I think Boran
in Ban. Okay? Okay. So I think Boran will be the first to fall. Dubai will
probably go bankrupt. Okay. But in the long term we can expect the entire GCC area including Saudi Arabia to eventually collapse. Okay. And this
something we will use game theory to understand. All right let's continue. So
understand. All right let's continue. So
we will know how this war develops just based on geography. Okay. So this is a map and this map even even if you don't really know the war, even if you don't know the participants, even if you don't
know the weaponry, this map will tell you exactly how this war will progress.
All right, so some certain things to keep in mind about this map. This is
what we call this area. Okay, really
small about it's 33 kilometers wide.
Okay, people can swim across it. It's
really really um uh narrow. Okay, this
small area guys, it's called the str moose.
All right, and it's important because it's really the center of the world.
This one area is the nexus, the pivot of the world. Let me explain why. First of
the world. Let me explain why. First of
all, from the GCC, you have 20% of all the world's oil flowing through this narrow straight. Where does it go,
guys? It goes to Asia, India, Pakistan,
guys? It goes to Asia, India, Pakistan, South Korea, China, Japan.
India depends on 60% of its oil from this area. China depends on 40%. Japan
this area. China depends on 40%. Japan
75%.
Prime Minister Takiichi of Japan has said that listen if the circle closes we run out of oil in about 8 n months. The
entire Japanese economy would collapse in 8 9 months. If the circle moves were to close and guess what the Iranians have closed the circle moves okay so we
can expect that the entire global economy will suffer greatly over the next few months. All right. So that's
point number one. Point number two is okay so the GC sends oil across the shoo and what do they get back in return?
Food guys.
All right so people don't appreciate the GCC but it is really the lynch pin of the American empire because what is the American empire? The American empire is the petro
empire? The American empire is the petro dollar. All right. The idea of the petro
dollar. All right. The idea of the petro dollar is this. The US dollar is worth nothing. It's only valued when people
nothing. It's only valued when people want it. But the GC says that if you
want it. But the GC says that if you want oil from us, you have to pay us in US dollars. Okay? Then that is the basis
US dollars. Okay? Then that is the basis of the value of the US dollar.
So if the GCC collapses, the American economy and American empire both collapse at the same time.
The problem though is the GCC is an artificial construct of empire. It does
not exist naturally. Why? Because that's
no food. That's no oil, no water. Okay
guys, no food, no water. So these cities are able to grow in the millions because of all these petrol dollars flowing in.
If you close off the moose, there's no food coming in, right? They're all going to starve.
How much food does the GCD get from overseas? 80%.
overseas? 80%.
80% of all the food it consumes comes from overseas that it imports. It does
not grow by itself. It imports.
All right.
So the sugar moose is really key and again the Iranians will close it in order to strangle the global economy and therefore bankrupt the American empire.
All right. Second thing you will notice is these mountains.
These mountains is what we call Iran.
All right, this is Iran.
This is GCC.
Okay, this is not a fair matchup, right?
Because these are mountains. And what
can you do in mountains? We can hide rocket bases. You can hide drone bases.
rocket bases. You can hide drone bases.
You can hide missiles. And that's the entire Iranian offensive strategy. All
right. From here they can hide missiles and drones from which to attack the GCC.
And what are they attacking? They're
attacking um three things, right? They're attacking
American military bases.
American military bases.
That's number one.
Okay. Is it possible for the Durkens to defend against these hacks? The answer
is no. THEY'RE NOT. IT'S NOT. IT'S THE
SILLIEST THING IN the world. You have
all these bases in the Middle East, but you cannot defend them against the Iranians. That's kind of strange. Okay,
Iranians. That's kind of strange. Okay,
that's number one. Number two is oil and energy.
How hard is it to blow up an oil field with a drone? Not hard at all. Can you
defend these oil fields? No, you cannot.
All right. Number three, and that's most important, is water.
Okay, you guys don't know this, but the GCC has little access to fresh water. So the
only way that it can produce water is what is what we call dalination plants.
Okay, these factories that take salt water and then through electrical chemical process turn it into fresh water for the population to use. 60%
of the water supply and as you see comes from the alination plants. Okay, 60%.
Is it hard to blow up the dalination plant using a drone? The answer is it's very easy. You understand? Okay, so you
very easy. You understand? Okay, so you have this absurd situation where Iran is a mountain fortress where it can hide its offensive capacity
and the GCC it's just this desert, this flat desert and it is exposed to attack and there's nothing it can do about it.
Okay.
So, at any point in this war, the Iranians can choose to just destroy the entire GCC and there's nothing that
anyone can do about it.
Okay? But Iran also has a weakness.
Okay? And this is fundamental. So, Iran
also has a water problem. Okay? So, for
the longest time, they suffer a drought issue.
Okay? this climate change.
And so what the plan of the Israelis Americans is is destroy the water supply of the Iranians because the fortress it
it is a mountain fortress but it can also be a mountain prison as well where people are trapped inside with no access to water. Okay. So what we're going to
to water. Okay. So what we're going to see right now, we're we're already seeing attacks on civilian infrastructure, hospitals. In the
infrastructure, hospitals. In the future, you will see attacks on water supply, on dams, on reservoirs,
on power plants. The point, the idea is to make Iran so inhabitable that the people will will have to rebel against the people or there'll be a refugee
crisis in Iran. Okay. So as you can see from this map, this war it is the end of the world. Okay, both sides have the
the world. Okay, both sides have the potential to destroy each other. It's
really a question of how far do they want to go, right? We we can also say this is almost a game of chicken.
Okay, we can blow we can blow each other up.
How far do you want to go?
And the problem is this. The problem is that the Iranians are Shia which believes in martyrdom and you've
killed the religious leader that K. So
they're willing to go very very far. The
GC the GC countries are Muslim but they're materialistic. They love money.
they're materialistic. They love money.
And also most of the population are expatriots, foreigners. 90% of Dubai are
expatriots, foreigners. 90% of Dubai are foreigners. Guess guess what's going to
foreigners. Guess guess what's going to happen if they suffer? They're going to run away. Okay, so this is not a fair
run away. Okay, so this is not a fair matchup.
The big question that people have is first of all, are the Americans going to use ground troops?
Because the only way that you can defeat Iran is by using ground troops. Okay,
that's a big question we will look at over the next few weeks. Will will
America send his army half a million 2 million soldiers to topple the government? Okay, that's question number
government? Okay, that's question number one. Question number two, nuclear
one. Question number two, nuclear weapons.
If you're losing a war, would you choose to use nuclear weapons?
Okay, that's another big question that we have. Okay, another big question that
we have. Okay, another big question that we have is who gets involved? Because
this situation is so dire that Europe, okay, specifically Germany, France and Britain
are talking about entering this war. And
guess what? If that happens, it is possible that Russia and China will also enter this war on the side of the Iranians. This is World War II,
the Iranians. This is World War II, okay?
because of the importance of the political moves, because of the importance of the Middle East, everyone has to get involved at some point.
And we're going to use game theory to really try to understand what what's happening on the ground and where this could lead us. Okay.
All right. You guys understand? All
right. All right. Let's continue. Okay.
So again, there are American bases all over the Middle East and originally these bases were
established to protect them from basically their own people. Okay, these
are monarchies that were imposed on these nations by the Anglo-American Empire, the British first and then the Americans came to support these
monarchies.
And so they provide defense.
But then you're like, wait a minute here. I mean, didn't we just say that
here. I mean, didn't we just say that these American bases can actually defend these people that they're exposed? And
the and the reason and the answer is yes, that's true. But remember that the American military was built during the
Cold War. Okay? And the Cold War was a
Cold War. Okay? And the Cold War was a war between the Soviet Union and um America. And so the cold war was defined
America. And so the cold war was defined with something called MAD, mutually assured destruction, because both had nuclear weapons. Okay? So they didn't
nuclear weapons. Okay? So they didn't really go to war against each other. And
so in other words, these bases aren't really meant to defend uh these nations from other enemies.
They're really meant to impose American authority in the Middle East. Okay? And
it's the idea of this. It's the idea that empire it is really a
image. It is a hallucination. It's an
image. It is a hallucination. It's an
idea. Empire is the it's an aura of invisibility and inability. Okay? If you
fear it, then you obey it.
But it's not really designed to fight a war. Okay? And and so that's why we have
war. Okay? And and so that's why we have this absurd situation.
And because there are so many bases in the GCC, that gives the Iranians the perfect pretext to attack them in order destroy the GCC economy, which will destroy the American empire. Right? All
right. So this is how the war shipping out. Okay. So So the red is the Israelis
out. Okay. So So the red is the Israelis and the Americans. The yellow are the Iranians. And as you can see, the
Iranians. And as you can see, the Iranians are attacking everywhere, primarily Israel, okay? But also, as you can see,
Israel, okay? But also, as you can see, a lot of focus on Bahrain and Qatar. And
again, the intention is to destabilize the economy and the government, okay?
It's it's to try to get as much instability as possible, right?
Okay. And as you can see, the Americans and the Israelis are focused on Tran.
And so the Americans is use some something we call shock and all.
And the very idea of shock and all is you decapitate the enemy. You cut off the head, the
the enemy. You cut off the head, the body will fall down. Okay. The problem
though is again the Iranians see this as a religious war and so the Iranians have of have announced total war.
Okay. And so what this means is that right now command and control in in Iraq is decentralized.
There's no one person telling everyone what to do. Every region has its own orders, has its own strategy. And so if you knock out Tran, everyone else keeps
on going. So you knock off the take off
on going. So you knock off the take off the head, it doesn't change anything.
Okay? But unfortunately
the um Israelis and Americans use this as a military doctrine. Military
doctrine just means how to how you design your military for what purpose.
And so the even though the Americans seem like an invincible army, they are not equipped to fight a 21st century war against drones, against religious fanatics. Okay? They're just
religious fanatics. Okay? They're just
not all right. But unfortunately, because of
all right. But unfortunately, because of military doctrine, they're going to keep on attacking Tran. Now the great irony of all this is that the Iranians who
will be most supportive of you of regime change are actually in the cities because they are educated they're progressive the people who are most fundamentally against you will fight you
to the death are religious fanatics the Shia militants living in the rural areas okay so this is a really silly thing
where you are actually destroying those who who will most likely support you And you're leaving alone those who are most
likely to commit jihad against you. All
right.
Any questions so far guys? Are you
clear? All right. So another idea that I want you guys to understand is idea of asymmetry.
Asymmetry.
All right. So what is asymmetry?
Asymmetry means that the two sides are choosing to fight different wars using different techniques because one is much stronger than the other.
Okay, America has a great empire. It has
unlimited resources. It has a USD. It
has it controls the world, right? Iran
uh is a country that has been under economic sanctions for the past 45 years. It's poor. It's technology is
years. It's poor. It's technology is very limited. Okay. But as we learn in
very limited. Okay. But as we learn in this class, actually those nations that are poor actually have more energy.
They're more open and they're more cohesive. Right? So let me give an
cohesive. Right? So let me give an example. This is what we call the Shahad
example. This is what we call the Shahad drones. Shahad drones. Each of these
drones. Shahad drones. Each of these drones cost $50,000 at most. Okay? At
most. It can go as cheap as $35,000 US.
But one of them is one of them is $50,000. As you can see, you can fit a
$50,000. As you can see, you can fit a lot of these drones to a truck that can go anywhere in Iran and they can hide anywhere. All right, so the thing to
anywhere. All right, so the thing to understand is first of all, these drones are cheap. They're easy and they're easy
are cheap. They're easy and they're easy to make. They make about 500 a day.
to make. They make about 500 a day.
Okay? And estimates are about there's 80,000 um right now that the Iranians have. So
they can go on for a long long time.
Okay? And one of these drones again can knock out a dissalination plant. It can
knock out a oil field. It can knock out a hotel. It can do a lot of damage.
a hotel. It can do a lot of damage.
Okay. And it's easily transportable. You can hide it anywhere.
transportable. You can hide it anywhere.
You can you can use it from anywhere.
Okay? And that's what the Iranians are using as an offensive weapon. And how do Americans defend against this? They use
something called a fad. Right.
Right guys, this is what they use. FAD.
FAD stands for thermal high altitude air defense. And they also have like Patriot
defense. And they also have like Patriot systems. There's a lot. Okay. The thing
that you will that you need to know know about the system is it's really expensive. This missile guys cost $1
expensive. This missile guys cost $1 million.
$1 million.
So, there's this $50,000 drone coming your way and you throw a million dollar missile at it. Okay? And often these missiles miss, so you have to throw two or three missiles at it. Okay? So, you
you're spending two to $3 million on each $50,000 that the spend.
That's kind of silly. Second thing
you'll notice is that this thing is really big and really slow and therefore you can't really move it around.
Therefore, it's pretty easy for the Iranians to spot where this is and attack it. And when these planes blow
attack it. And when these planes blow up, that's a lot of money, guys. Okay?
Then you're like, "What? But this makes no sense. You know, the Iranians have
no sense. You know, the Iranians have drones. They've had drones for like 10
drones. They've had drones for like 10 years. You've also seen drones used in
years. You've also seen drones used in the Russia Ukraine war to devastating effect. Why don't the Americans know
effect. Why don't the Americans know this? Why did they prepare? Okay. And
this? Why did they prepare? Okay. And
again, it has to do with military military doctrine because military doctrine determines how you fight a war.
It determines on your bureaucracy and it and it determines how you spend your resources. Okay? And unfortunately, the
resources. Okay? And unfortunately, the Americans are used to fighting something called the cold war, right? And the cold war you can actually
right? And the cold war you can actually fight the war. You can actually use uh kill each other because then you people use nuclear weapons. The cold war was about flexing.
Flexing. Okay, you see how big and powerful I am?
Okay, that's all it was.
These weapon systems are designed to scare the crap out of you. They are
designed to impress you and as a result, they cost a lot of money. They don't do anything. All right, so that's the
anything. All right, so that's the entire American military. It costs a lot and it doesn't really do anything and it's not resilient. It's not innovative.
It's not open. All right. Also, the
other thing I have to say this, okay, is if you look at the American military, it's corrupt.
So, this is really about corruption.
So, the Americans don't really care about winning a war. What they care about is spending as much money as possible because then they get a cut. It
doesn't make sense, right? And that's
why the Americans are in situation as they are. All right, let's continue.
they are. All right, let's continue.
All right, so um something that people don't really talk about, but you need to understand it's the water issue in the GCC in the Middle East in Iraq. All
right. So, um
this is a map of the world and if you are like blue, Brazil, Canada, you have nothing to worry about because you have a lot of water, a lot of fresh water,
very little population.
All right? So, um 100% just means 100% water stress just means that you drink as much water as the
environment produces.
Okay. So, you want to be below 100%. To
be sustainable. Ideally, you you you want to be at 10%. Okay.
If it goes above 100%, it means that you are drinking more water, using more water than the environment actually produces. Okay? So, you're putting
produces. Okay? So, you're putting stress on the environment.
So 200% is really bad, right? Because you're
you're using twice as much water as environment produces.
Guess what, guys? Look at the Middle East. Okay, Egypt,
East. Okay, Egypt, 6,420%.
Saudi Arabia, 883%.
All right. Ban almost 4,000%.
Dubai 17,000%.
All right, these. So water is a huge issue. Again,
these. So water is a huge issue. Again,
it doesn't matter if Iran kills American soldiers, destroys American military. It doesn't have to do
American military. It doesn't have to do that. All it has to do is destroy the
that. All it has to do is destroy the dissalination plants and then the GCC is destroyed. Okay.
destroyed. Okay.
But it's also true that Iran has water issues. 72% is pretty bad.
Okay. So even though the Iranians could destroy the GCC much faster than the Americans could destroy Iran,
Iran is still in trouble. Okay. So so so let let me give you an example of this.
This is like so sorry. So this is another map that shows you uh the issue of water scarcity. Okay. And it's just basically the Middle East. Okay. Their
biggest issue in the future is water.
Okay. And that's where the geopolitical tensions will rise in the future over water. India is also affected as well.
water. India is also affected as well.
Okay. All right.
All right. So, let's look at the map, guys. This is called Lake Heria in
guys. This is called Lake Heria in northern Iran. It's the sixth largest
northern Iran. It's the sixth largest saltwater lake in the world or it used to be. Okay. This is what it was in
to be. Okay. This is what it was in 1984. Th This is a shallow. This is a
1984. Th This is a shallow. This is a deep. Okay? You guys see that? It's
deep. Okay? You guys see that? It's
really big, right? 20 years later, guys.
This is what it looks like.
There's no more water here. You can walk from here over to there. Okay, there's
some water over here, but it's shallow now. That's how serious the water issue
now. That's how serious the water issue is in Iran. And that's the weak point that the Americans and the Israelis will attack. All right. They want to make
attack. All right. They want to make sure that Iran has no access to fresh water which will cause devastation in their nation. Okay, that's strategy
their nation. Okay, that's strategy number one. Strategy number two is this.
number one. Strategy number two is this.
This is a map of the different ethnic minorities in Iran. As you can see, it's a very
in Iran. As you can see, it's a very diverse place. In the center are the
diverse place. In the center are the Persians, but you also have 10 other groups as well. And in the borderlands, it's basically a different
country, right? Like these are basically
country, right? Like these are basically different countries.
And so these places have more common common areas with their neighbors than they do with Iran. Okay. So the second weakness of Iran, the first is the
water. The second is the ethnic makeup
water. The second is the ethnic makeup of the country. So the strategy of the Americans and the Israelis moving forward is destroy Iran as a coherent
nation state divided into ethnic archives and have them fight over water.
That is the grand plan of the Israelis and the Americans. Okay.
All right. This is this is this is the vision where Persia is limited and then all these other places are sponsored by the Americans and the Israelis. They're
given money. They're given weapons.
They're given political support. And
then this war will wage over water forever. Okay? And this is how you
forever. Okay? And this is how you destroy Iran and make sure Iran is no longer a viable threat to you. That is
the plan of the Americans. Okay? As as
you can see, it's pretty evil plan. And
that's why they have not announced it, right? Because if you announce it,
right? Because if you announce it, you're like, why are you doing this?
What the Persians, what did the ever do to you to warrant you coming destroying their civilization? And the answer is
their civilization? And the answer is nothing. Right? So the Americans will
nothing. Right? So the Americans will never admit they're doing this. But if
you look at the map of war supply of ethnic um tensions, this is the optimal game game theory strategy for them to use against Iran. Okay, does that make
against Iran. Okay, does that make sense? This is a long-term plan that
sense? This is a long-term plan that they have in place and it's all moving towards this plan. But now the question then is how can the Iranians respond to
this? And the answer is this. This is a
this? And the answer is this. This is a
map of the Muslim world. Okay. So the
um light green are the Sunni people.
Okay. That's 90% of the entire Muslim population about two two billion people.
Okay. Then you have in dark green the Shia.
So as you can see the main place of the Shia is Iran. Okay, Iran is one of the few Shia nations in the world. But you
can also see from this map that Shia are spread throughout the world. Okay. And
so the first thing that the Iranians want to do is create a jihad to unite all the Shia against American Empire.
All right. So what they want to do is create a uprising and it's already happening guys. Um the
Shia in Pakistan stormed the American embassy in Pakistan and the Americans killed a lot of people. Okay. the Shia
have have attacked the American embassy in uh Iraq.
The American embassy uh are being attacked in a lot of places. Right? So the first strategy is
places. Right? So the first strategy is to create a international global jihad of the Shia against the American empire and it's already happening. it will
continue for a long long term long time because the Americans have killed the um Kame okay and that requires vengeance.
The other thing though is that it can unify the Muslim world. Okay, if you look at
this map, most of the Muslim world is actually run by dictatorships that are not popular at all. Okay. And they're
allowed to exist because they're like an empire, right? You go to Saudi Arabia,
empire, right? You go to Saudi Arabia, Egypt, uh Algeria, uh these places, they're all run by clients
of American Empire, right? So if you rally the people who hate their governments and you overthrow them, then
that makes Iran the leader of the the Islamic world. Not
just the Shia world, but the Islamic world. This creates something called tax
world. This creates something called tax Islam.
That is the end goal, guys. Okay? If you
do that, then you don't have to worry about the Americans and the Israelis anymore. Right? So the Israeli game
anymore. Right? So the Israeli game plan, the American game plan is to fracture Iran into ethnic enclaves and they'll fight over water for the rest of their lives and they all die. The
Iranian game plan is to create a religious war, a crusade that unifies the Shia people that overthrows the American Empire and establish something
called the Pax Islamaka.
All right.
All right.
So again, the key is the GCC.
All right. So the game plan is this. You
have to destroy the GCC. Why? Because
the GCC is the lynch pin of the American Empire.
So what the GC does is it sells oil.
sells oil and then for US dollars.
Where does it put US dollars? It puts US dollars into the American stock market.
All right. So this this is investments of the UAE, okay? Saudi Arabia and Kuwait into the US financial markets. As you can see
from 2012 up to today, it's been exploding.
All right? Because the US financial markets is one of the safest places where you can put your money. The
intention is this. The intention is, hey, if I cut off oil and these countries no longer have access to US dollars, they're forced to spend whatever resources they have on
protecting themselves. Okay? And then
protecting themselves. Okay? And then
guess what happens? The stock market collapses. The summer collapses. The
collapses. The summer collapses. The
stock market is the real growth engine of the US economy. the entire US economy collapses with it. All right, there are
about maybe seven companies in uh America that accounts for about a quarter of stock market growth. Okay,
these seven countries, these seven uh companies of course are are AI companies. Nvidia,
companies. Nvidia, um um Microsoft, Google, Apple. Okay, these
are the companies when and then these companies are heavily invested in by the GCC nations. So if these nations are
GCC nations. So if these nations are long long no longer able to invest in the stock market, these companies will collapse in value and with that that
would lead to economic depression in America.
It doesn't make sense. All right, so that is the situation for today. Today
was just an overview, guys. Okay, I know we covered a lot. I know there's a lot to take in, but over the next few weeks, we will explore each issue
um in depth and really understand what's really going on. Okay? All right. So,
any questions, guys?
Any questions about what we've just learned?
Okay.
Um if other countries such as Italy, France, China or Russia they have also joined this war like what's the
cause of they join the war because of oil or those resources.
Okay, that's a great question. Okay, so I don't want to spend too much time on this question because we will explore this question as we move along. Okay. So
the question is what brings the world into this conflict and the easy answer is um just oil access energy access okay
they need to protect their energy supplies because remember uh it's a very complicated situation because Europe is now fighting Russia. So so Europe is not buying any oil resources energy
resources from Russia. Therefore it
depends a lot on the on the GCC. So the
GC is not providing them energy then the Europe will go bankrupt. Okay. So Europe
needs to enter this war on behalf of Americans.
Okay. And then you Russia which cannot allow Iran to fall because if Iran falls then they'll come after Russia next.
Right? China is actually neutral.
China's okay with either scenario. But
that's just the way that the Chinese system is set up. Okay. So we're going to explore this question as we move along. But it's a very complicated
along. But it's a very complicated issue. All right. Okay. And each nation
issue. All right. Okay. And each nation will have its own different strategic interests to consider.
Right. And what we need to know what what we need to figure out is that this war in the Middle East is actually connected to to the Ukraine war. And as
we move along, I'll show you how these two two things connect together. Okay.
Any other questions, guys?
Okay, great. So um we'll continue this discussion on Thursday.
