I got to toss them in the other room. Yeah, yeah. So we've got Ryan Dawson coming on for an interview. It's going to be great. We're going to get an update. It's been a few days since we've had an update from Ryan. So this is going to be awesome. Great conversation as always. Ryan is a geopolitical expert on Iran. Well, a general geopolitical expert. On Middle East, yeah. I did an update in your space, but those get lost in the ether. Exactly. Because they're going 24-7. But Ryan, thanks for joining us. Thanks for taking your time out. Give us a... Wait, let me make a picture. Shout out to Scott Horton today. I got... He was on sale. Hilarious. Okay. We have... Ryan Dawson. Ryan, give us an update on what's happening with Iran. You can see the grin. I know you like seeing Citibank get bombed in Dubai. I'm sure a lot of customers of Citibank didn't mind that. They were part of the mortgage-backed security fraud. In 2008 and a number of other things. It's deeply tied to Trump, personally. If anybody's seen Trump's Zionist ball and chain, they'll understand that. Yeah, it's just been glorious in a sick kind of way. I mean, so war is terrible. But we know when the most evil entity on Earth is getting smashed, it's pretty much worth it. I wish all those schoolchildren didn't have to die and all the suffering could go away. But in the long run, it's a net positive because Israel's been murdering children basically every day since its inception anyway. And man, doesn't it just make your heart melt to know that people in Gaza can look up at the sky and just see it coming down? Bam. And they're coming down at will. So, let's see. So much has happened. Like, where to start? Okay, last time I was on, we were talking about the Hezbollah attacking across the blue line. That's right, yeah. Yeah, that continued Haifa is basically defunct. The port doesn't work anymore. Their eyes and ears in the north have gone dark. Even their Leviathan gas rig out in the water got hit with a drone. Their Ben-Gurion's getting smashed. And a lot of IDF soldiers have been hit by these cluster munitions, these anti-personnels. They're not releasing casualties. BB's missing. I asked people if they'd check the sewers, probably down there with a dirty mattress. Where's BB? Where is he? I hope he's in more than one place, if you know what I'm saying. That would be a dream. I hope he's in many places as rain. Iran did issue three demands. So, well, this is like, kind of. They issued three demands, but the IGRC is like, no, no, more than that. But the political arm made conditions for ending the war. But not really, because there's no way they're going to accept them. But the demands are such. So, one very, quite reasonable, but Trump can't do it, is that the U.S. and Israel are going to pay reparations for all the damage they cause in Iran. Now, this is great if they even do a portion of that, because Iran does need foreign currency, because Iran was basically wiped, useless. That's why they started selling in yuan, Chinese currency, because their own currency is kaput, and why not get the main enemy of the U.S.? That's going to help BRICS in general. But yeah, the U.S. and Israel would have to pay in their own denomination to fix all the things they blew up. And I think that should start with rebuilding schools and hospitals, because they've hit both. Both of them have hit both. Then, they demand, it says, it's worded in such a way of legalese, but I'll just break it down, that Iran is allowed to forward their weapons programs. That includes ballistic missiles. That also includes their energy programs for nuclear power. So, don't get off our back about that. We're doing that. You can't see anything. We have a right to defend ourselves. We have a right to arm ourselves. And the third one is that they need international guarantees that this won't happen again. Now, that one is vague, because it doesn't spell out what those guarantees would be. But one has to assume that one of those has to be that the U.S. removes its military presence from the Gulf states, because that is the direct threat to Iran. Those bases have been destroyed anyway, and to say, look, you can't return, or in just some minimal level, maybe, you can't come back. And, you know, the Gulf states are going to need reinvestment when this is all over, which, you know, this can go on for a month. It could go on until September. It can go on all day, because although the U.S. has run short, and they will run out of standoff munitions, and they've basically completely run out of defensive interceptors, it doesn't really hurt the United States, continental United States. I mean, they can, okay, fine, our bases are blown up. Fine, the carriers are still there. We can still bomb you, but they're going to have to get in closer, because they don't have enough tomahawks and standoff munitions, glide bombs, and so on to use, which means they're vulnerable to anti-air attack. We've already seen that first with the refueler shot down over Iraq by Iraq. Iraqi militias in Iraq got it and ran. They gave them the tip of the hat for doing it. Then five more, they said damaged, which is, how do you damage a thing as fragile as a plane? Like, they're destroyed. Five more on the Sultan base of Saudi Arabia. I think that was secret where it was, but whatever, I don't care. I'm kind of like Ethan on TikTok. Here's the exact coordinates if you want to bomb where their nuclear facility is. I put his tweet up, and then it went viral, and then he got banned. It sucks. He's got another channel, and he already has more followers than his old one that's a year old. Nice. That's what it takes. You just got to be the right person to share your stuff, but he has the right to do that. It's not treason or anything like that. Israel's a parasite. It's showing where Israel's weapons were, not in America. Exactly. Even if they're American-made weapons, so what? It's Israelis that have them. Israelis that use them. Israel started the war. Israel is a pariah state of God's chosen lunatics. They deserve to blow up and die in hell. They've got Trump over a barrel with Epstein. This is Epstein's fury. AIPAC should be illegal, should be registered under FARA, shouldn't even exist. I fully support showing where Israel's vulnerable. Why not? Those are the demands. Now, what's the U.S.? Trump, a few days ago, said he would only accept total surrender. He's going to have to backpedal from that. He's getting a lot of pressure from his allies, especially, basically, and Kevork said this, too. You should have him on. He said closing the Strait of Hormuz was Iran's own Samson option. He's kind of right. It's not instantaneous. And this explains, also, all these people, like, why doesn't it unran? Why don't they just unleash, like, all the hypersonic missiles and blow Israel up in a day? Well, when you look at it, the clock's on their side, right? The U.S. and Israel are bleeding. They're getting pressure from their allies, especially in East Asia, Japan, South Korea, China, too. You know, even though they're allowing some ships, it's still reduced dramatically. And it's forced them to lift sanctions on Russia, which all the Democrats really hate. I think we should never have had sanctions on Russia. I don't think there should have been a war in Ukraine. All that was dumb. But it's, you know, supposed to be, you know, the majority of U.S. politicians think Russia is, like, big evil. It threatens U.S. hegemon, whatever. But you're making them richer than ever, so they love it. Russia and Azerbaijan have benefited from this war more than anyone because they're, that's who gets to sell the most oil and liquid gas. Qatar's been taken off, completely taken off, and so has Iraq. So, that basically is, like, Russia and Australia for gas, number one and two. But Australia's so cucked, they're going to take their proceeds and help bail out the Gulf states. Unbelievable. Now you know who's banging kids. So, Trump's got a lot of pressure, and he really hasn't accomplished anything. He's like, yay, you got oil up to, what, $94. It was over $111 at one point. This is from $59.60 before. He's, his big mouth has talked about several different ways of reopening the strait. He started with escorts, even the French janitor, and then they, I guess they, an adult talked to him and said, sir, we can't do that. Then he's like, we'll send in the Marines. 2,500 Marines. Like, sir, you need to add another zero. You need, like, 250,000 Marines, which you don't have. Even the Army would, that would be tough to get 250,000, 300,000 guys. And stage them where? And in the age of satellite warfare, you just can't do that without everyone seeing it coming and then being harassed and so on. They talked about, well, okay, we're going to, we're going to raid Crag Island and, you know, like Iran didn't know that was coming. Yeah, that's like four Iwo Jimas, you know, fun. The only way to get them there, by the way, would be those Osprey tilt rotors, I guess. It's kind of like a helicopter hybrid. You have to drop them off because you can't get into the strait aquatically. I mean, you can try, but you're going to get rid of the land batteries. So, and the little drone, it's just a mess. You'd lose everyone before they arrive. So, if you're going to double it, let's say 5,000 Marines, that's a lot of air that you've got to transport over. Some of them are going to blow up in the air. And when they get there, they're dug in and defended. And then what do you end up with at the end? Even if you secure the oil, you can't send it anywhere. So, what's the point? Kind of low up. They're just trying to find something doable and call it a win and find an off-ramp. They don't have one. I mean, they don't have one without losing face. They could admit Israel dragged us into this. We can either keep digging a hole or just say, look, we blew up the Navy. We stopped the nuclear program. That was our goals. We win. La-da-da. Walk off. Go ahead. Because there was never was a nuclear program. And the Navy was never the threat. Iran's Navy doesn't matter. It's always been the ballistic missiles. So, they can't get those. So, I just want to go back to the Karag Island. That's been the big talking point. That's meant to be the kind of mode by which there's boats on the ground. You're right in saying that there's apparently about 5,000 troops. They're going to try and get in there via helicopter. I believe the IAGC has maybe 1,000 to 3,000 troops there. Well, see, they're basing that on a paper from 1986. So, they have no clue. That's 1,000 men, 1,000 soldiers, and however many workers, say another 1,000. From the 1980s. Whatever. That intelligence is useless. You think there's more? Yeah, because they've seen this war coming for a long time. And you have the 80s, the 90s, 2000s, 2010s, 20s. I mean, yeah, I think there's more. Okay, so they basically are going to try and land into Karag Island via helicopter. You're going to have Iranian soldiers there, and there's going to be a battle on the ground. The reason to take the Karag Island is because you obviously can't transport the oil, but it's to take control over Iran's oil and try and bleed them back because a large proportion of Iranian oil goes through there. They can recalibrate it, it goes elsewhere. But the problem with that is that you're going to lose about 50% to 70%. So, it's more about hurting Iran, probably, and just claiming victory. So, what's your thoughts on how that plays out? Before it's a ground battle, you've got to land them there. You're going to lose offspring in the air, and just bang, all of them dead. You can have suppressive fire. I mean, they already bombed the island. So, what? They didn't bomb the energy, though. They left it there because they're afraid to death. If they blow that up, then kiss the Saudi oil fields goodbye. So, you can't touch it. And you can't. And they could actually use that. They could actually fire from it because you can't fire back. If you hit it, you're toast. They're dug in. And they're not going to sacrifice too many, but it's enough to take these out. If you come in, and you've got to get off of there, too. They can easily hit you with ballistic missiles. Let's say you take it and try and hold it. How are you going to hold it? They're going to pepper you. It's a dumb plan. It's some G.I. Joe Hegseth plan, it seems like. It doesn't make sense. Like, we've had all these war games before, and that is something, like, was already suggested and already countered and all the problems with it. But they don't seem to look at any of these war game exercises or all the logistical problems of sending the Marines in to take that island, especially if you can't leave from Kuwait or Iraq because those airfields have been destroyed. You think it's, you know, the longer the trip, the more at risk you are. Now, they also are saying, well, we're going to come in from the sea. Like, from where? Can't use Bahrain. You could have to come into the strait. You can't even get oil tankers out. Like, those boats full of Marines would be the only target. Like, everything would focus on those. You're not getting in there. And you could lose them all. It's so stupid. I don't want to lose all these young men. Yesterday, like, one of the six on the refueler that was shot down over, basically, it ran into another refueler. So, really, two. He had a two-year-old child and twin seven-month-olds. Now, they don't have a dad. Like, yeah, he died for Israel refueling planes. And he said, well, you know, you were refueling planes that were bombing other people and their children. So, you got to look at it like that. But I feel bad. You got to look at the war. Like, these – it's the weirdest thing. Like, people, dumb order followers, like, they have families. They're, like, otherwise good people. They just do – they think they're fighting for their country or the constitution or that Iran was about to attack us, whatever lie they've been told. Well, I'm not sure how it is in the U.S. Well, I'm not sure how it's in the U.S., but in the U.K., what happens is, like, a lot of working-class kids end up joining the Army or the Marines because they're, like, okay, this is going to give us a good career. We'll be on a decent salary compared to in our local area where the opportunities and the pay isn't there. And so, in reality, for a working-class person, it becomes almost, like, the only choice a lot of them have. There are a lot of FHSs that are fucked up in high school. So, they end up in the military because it's less indignant than flipping burgers at a fast-food joint. So, they just join the Army or the Marines. And, of course, they don't say that. They're, like, oh, I'm – you know, all the more glorious reasons. But it's mostly welfare for screw-ups. Like, yeah, you can join the Army at least. But there's others that just couldn't afford college or whatever, and they go. And some because their family's in the military, so they're in the military. There's a whole bunch of different reasons. Like, they're all different of why you end up in there. But there is definitely an economic incentive. And even since the second Gulf War, George Bush did this. It's a path to citizenship for illegals. Like, well, if you'll join – if you'll be cannon fodder, you get to cut in line and become a citizen. So, there's different incentive for different groups. But a lot of it – a lot of it is just the highest-paying job a poor person can get. Okay. And now, going back to the military situation, you mentioned that they're running out of defense interceptor missiles. So, A, where are they at that? And B, what's happening with Iran? Are they able to hit all these countries quite easily now? Well, it's hard to tell because their radar was blown up. So, even if they did have the interceptors, they're useless because without the radar, they don't work. So, it's – I'm not sure whether it's because they ran so low that they ran out or because they're shooting in the dark. So, they want to save them until they can repair that radar. I'm talking about northern Israel in particular. Because even drones, which are – you can hit drones. You don't even need – you can hit a drone with a lot of things. They're just cutting right through. Kabam, kabam, kabam. And it's a total lockdown in media. But it's getting out anyway. There's a lot of fake stuff out, too, but whatever. Israel's locked down. They had a bunker collapse. The ceiling caved in. They call it a shelter. It's not a shelter. It's a bunker. It's got soldiers in it. A shelter is for civilians. They do have air raid shelters. Those are not being targeted. Those aren't very deep. If they were targeted, they'd be destroyed. They work for the kind of Katusha rockets, not even a real missile from, say, Hamas or something. But it wouldn't matter. If a ballistic missile hit that, it'll all die underground. So, just coming back to it. So, they're struggling to defend themselves. Is Iran able to hit them up? Something that happened today was the UAE. So, the Carriage Island war. And, obviously, you know how you want that. You're going to be like, this guy only talks about Perez news. Yeah, it's part of the war. Yeah. So, what happened was, obviously, the Carriage Island, the foreign minister of Iran, as well as the IGC, came out and said that, actually, UAE has been used to directly attack Iran. They used Ras al-Khaimah, and they used a place close to Dubai. They said, where they fight. Yeah, in fact, I heard the UAE was saying, bring it on, Iran. Bring on your worst. That's what they were saying, right? Did you hear that? I mean, they can say that, but we know they can't back that up. But, they're fired from these two main locations. Exactly. But, I heard they said it. Hit them, Iran. Yeah, yeah. I think they're trying to say they could take you, Iran. I think you need to show them. And, they said they don't like Shia, as well. Anyway, jokes, jokes. But, anyway, coming back to it. So, they said they're fired from those two locations in densely populated areas in order to hit Iran. So, Iran said, we're going to respond aggressively. We're going to hit your ports. We're going to hit your military bases. And, we're going to hit the locations you're fired from. What's happening with that? And, what's your thoughts? Usually, when Iran says they're going to do something, they do it. So, there's nothing complex there. That's what they're going to do. I guess I'm trying to ask, why has you, like, with the other countries, they're complicit. But, they're kind of trying to hide it. Use a bit of our airspace. But, we're not really involved. But, with the UAE, so blatantly firing from their country. I mean, this is them joining the war. In a kind of more progressive manner. Well, there was an incident where a distillation plant was hit by the Israelis, which they tried to blame on the UAE. And, the UAE's like, no, no, no. It wasn't us. Because, they don't want their own being hit. Which makes you think, what a great friend. They're trying to get your water destroyed. Exactly. Israel doesn't care about these Gulf Arabs. They just use them as, they're, oh, so this reminds me. And, this would suck. They are talking about mobilizing Al-Qaeda in Syria to hit Lebanon. Therefore, since the IDF, the diaper force was getting their dad ass whooped, they want to get the Wahhabi Sunni Salafist types to go in there and die for them. The problem there is, Jelani doesn't actually have a unified force anymore. Because, these are all mercenaries. They're being paid by Turkey. But, then Turkey's being paid by a bunch. So, really, it's a coalition of financiers. They have divided and are fighting each other. So, how well Al-Qaeda can reorganize to go into Lebanon, don't know. What would be hilarious is if they break that barrier and Hezbollah invades Syria instead. Or, he takes a piece of Syria. Because, the Latakia region was never really taken. It's the only thing left. It used to be the opposite. Only Idlib was Al-Qaeda. Well, now they have everything except Latakia. And, so, there's still SAA there. And, that's, you know, there's no mistake why that's in Western Syria. It also has a Russian base there. The only Russian naval base on the Mediterranean, by the way. So, but that's just my dream. But, that could be a problem. Hezbollah has shown it can take on the Israelis all day, every day. But, if you add in, and we don't know what the force would be because they're not unified. But, if you add in Al-Qaeda, what, I hope they do it in a way just to show the world, look, Israel and Al-Qaeda are on the same team always happen. Yeah, exactly. That they even floated the idea, which lets you know they can do such a thing, shows the partnership. It's you and I know that's always been the case. I agree. I agree. I had a debate with someone. If people know what actually happened on 9-11, they would understand. Exactly. No, no, you're totally right. In complete agreement. So, coming back to what's in terms of the specifics of the war, from Iran's perspective, how much can they sustain these attacks? I mean, the bomb, the attacks on them have become ferocious. I saw a video today where the U.S. fighter jets were kind of a bit more closer to Iran. I know the risk is it could be shut down, but again, Iran has the risk where they need to calculate whether they want to risk shooting down and then showing their locations as well. So, it becomes a bit of a complex calculation. So, what's your thoughts on that? Economically, it's devastating, which is why I think the first demand was reparations for everything you destroy. It's a way of saying the more stuff you blow up, the more you're going to have to pay for later because you're going to lose this war. The kind of things they're hitting aren't of strategic value battlefield-wise. They're not hitting, like, ballistic missile salvos or something. They're just blowing up buildings and infrastructure and whatnot. It's not that important as far as mitigating their ability to commit offense. So, it's just more stuff you're going to have to pay for later. But it is a huge bill at the end of this because you're going to have to rebuild everything. It does lower the standard of living for your citizens. So, they're going to have to rebuild it. And it's hilarious to do this to Trump, too. Say, we're going to rebuild this and Trump's going to pay for it. It's kind of what he was saying about Mexico. Exactly. That's hilarious. Get in here. Get in here, Kushner. Let's build this up. You're not going to build anything in Gaza. You're going to rebuild Tehran. Okay. And now, my audience want to ask you this, but I've got to ask it. Where's Bibi? Where is Bibi? I heard he was in that bunker that collapsed and got injured in his vagina. But what is your thoughts? I mean, there's two prevailing thoughts that he actually possibly did. So, the six-fingers stuff is not true. They took a video that may or may not have been AI, but they took his video and then took frames out of it and then ran that through AI and created six fingers. Right. Because you cannot freeze frame anywhere in that video where his hands are like that. So, that's garbage. But often, they put garbage out in front of something real to create that baby with the bathwater effect. He hasn't shown his face. He hasn't said anything. People think he's dead. I hope not. I hope he's suffering. I hope he lost his legs, his ears, and his eyes. He's on a feeding tube somewhere. Possibly going into a conscious coma like Ariel Sharon. Yeah. If that happened, now I'd become a Shia and I'd believe in God. So, if all that happened. Yeah, exactly. So, just obviously, there is two possibilities. One is that he's either severely injured and or dead. The other one is that he's maybe in some kind of underground bunker, obviously using a green screen, and therefore, he can't provide real evidence that he's alive. Because anytime he does, people are going to think it's AI. He needs to be in a public situation, in a public place, amongst people to verify that he's still alive. But I think because he might be in a bunker in a random country, he's probably not able to produce that. A bunker in Germany. I think he can't do any kind of live stream from anywhere. He's afraid of electronic signal because he knows China or Russia will get it and give it to Iran, and they'll get targeted. They'll get a missile at the best. He may have injured his face, so he can't show himself at all. Any kind of wound. Or he could be dead. But I don't think he's dead because if he had died, we all would have heard the angels singing outside simultaneously around the world. So, we would have felt it in the force. He would just feel evil leave, you know? Yeah, yeah. But the Israelis, if you look, they look very nervous in their meetings, and he's not there. He's out at security meetings. So, he's been hit or he's just in the corner crying. He does not have a way out of this. And I'm sure Trump is like, what the, you dragged us into war. You said, blah, blah, blah. It's not going like that at all. He's still sticking to the script publicly. But behind closed doors, you've got to give him a berating. Because if America walks, that's the end of Israel because Iran was not going to stop. What I said, their plan to stop the war only meant with America. There is no plan of ending the war for Israel. But then America would never agree to it, though. At one point, they're going to have to. Now, America would have to have some condition like you have to stop bombing Israel. And then Iran will counteroffer with kiss my ass. I mean, OK, you know what? They do have something. They could say, OK, lift all sanctions. Yeah, lift all sanctions. Give the, you know, remove the settlements in the West Bank. Possibly give the Palestinians a state. These could be the demands in order to remove the, you know, to stop bombing Israel. But sorry, you just mentioned sanctions. But sanctions weren't part of the three-point plan? No. Well, that's weak, don't you think? Because that's a major issue for them. Well, I mean, if you're making reparations for all the things they blew up, there's plenty of money. I don't think they want to sell to Europe and the U.S. I think they're moving east. They're selling everything to Asia. But yeah, there's other, you know, on Swift and on certain individuals, that's something they did not demand. So I thought they'd include that. And that may be the counteroffer to stopping the violence for Israel. Well, yeah, I think the sanctions should be the minimum. I think that's going to be a mistake if they don't have that in there. I think getting out of the Gulf, too. And that's kind of done, don't you think? Yeah. They definitely can't go to Bahrain. They don't want it. Well, I think the Gulf, you're right, the presence has been minimized. I don't think the presence will end because, you know, my view on that. I think these Gulf states are subservient to the United States of America. They're such weak people. And as you know better than anyone else, Saudi, Israel, and the United States of America are so integrated and interlinked for decades that they almost won. And the second thing is because the CIA and Mossad are so integrated and integrally linked, so more like MBS fears that he'll get the King Fassel treatment, that he could just be assassinated at any time. And I agree with you, actually, on Saudi Arabia. I guess I'm thinking more Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Iraq. They have very weak presence in Iraq and never should have been there anyway. UAE and Saudi Arabia are so cocked, but look, the investment won't return. And they can say, look, we're just – they never said we're ending this – we're lifting the siege on Hormuz either. They just said we'll stop the war. You want that? Well, lift sanctions. I mean, that could be an option as well. They left quite vague. They just – here's the three demands, but they – you know, when you say things like genuine guarantees, okay, what kind of things are those? Guarantees how? They left it up. I think they realize you can't negotiate with the U.S. You can only negotiate with power. So this isn't even – it's really – this is our demand. It's not a negotiation. You're going to do this or we're going to keep bombing you. Yeah, yeah. And this is the problem I've got, Ryan, that I can't see an end in sight because of Israel. I think the U.S. and Iran could make a deal, but I just think Israel's control over the United States of America is never going to allow a deal to be made. It kind of depends on the reaction of the U.S. public. If it looks like they're all saying get rid of all these Republicans for the midterms, then Trump has to react to that. He's not going to react to anything moral or makes economic sense or that doesn't matter. But he doesn't want his party to lose because then he will get impeached and he could go to prison. So he does have to worry about that. So if you live in America, you need to be making some noise like, end this war. This is stupid. We're losing soldiers. This is for Israel. We gain nothing. I'm voting Democrat. Even if you're not, just say you are because that's how you get out of the war. Yeah, true. Although I do, you know, my, my view on this is I actually don't think he'll get impeached. I think there is, I think part, we know the Democrats and the Republicans are bought off by Israel. And so this probably would have been some kind of assurance he was given by them that he would never get impeached. I mean, if they lose everything. I don't know. Like he'll get impeached. Well, he get, will that impeachment get confirmed in the Senate's the problem? Maybe not, but the Congress will impeach him. Yeah. I don't think it'll be confirmed in the Senate because I think he's got guarantees. That's why he went. Well, even if so, that's going to cost him a lot of bribe money to get the votes to not impeach him. So make him spend it, you know? Yeah. Yeah. And his party will lose power and he won't be able to get anything else done on his agenda. So that's true. It's more than that. Yeah, that's true. They'll turn on him too. And they're like, I lost my seat because of you, you know, they'll turn on him. That's true. That's true. And the other thing it does is it makes Thomas Massey like a contender for president. I think it makes him. This war has, if anything, put him on the front. Matt and Epstein, I mean, I'd vote for him. Thomas Massey and anybody could have a lawn chair for his running mate. I'd still vote for him. Exactly. And I think those two issues are so important to Americans that he would basically place himself in a very important position to win. You have to remember that even the Democrats are kind of being pro-war and so has the Republicans and he would actually be the anti-war president or candidate, sorry. And then the guy being behind Epstein and then working with Ro Khanna and the Democrats, he's kind of, he has got a very good chance of winning. What's your thoughts? I think he, you know, he needs financing. We, so we'd all have to get by him. He's got to win his race in Kentucky, stay in Congress. I think he will, even though they're spending millions and they're outspending him, you know, six, seven fold. But, and only people in his district can vote in that. So it's a super conservative area, but he can win that. If, if he had the financial backing, he'd win. Like he wouldn't be going up against Trump. He's term limited anyway. So it would be JV Vance, I suppose. And he's got the machine behind him, but the longer this war goes on, the more they bleed and the better the anti-war person looks. So this is in a disgusting way, serendipitously, the best thing ever is the destruction of Israel is getting an anti-war candidate possible for president. It's the depletion of us standoff rounds and interceptors that lowers their might and power and leverage across the globe. And without that many casualties. So it's like done in the best way possible. Yeah, this is true. The end of the U S empire may be happening right now. Ryan, one last question. What do you expect to happen in the next few days? More of what we've seen. That's no dramatic changes unless they really do that Marine raid. That's going to be a disaster. I think it's a bunch of talk. I think it's kind of like the escorts, but yeah, they're so dumb. You never know. Like you can't really base these things on what makes sense. They're like, well, they don't make sense. So it's all, all that stuff they mount off is possible. You're going to see heavier missiles with Haifa out. You might see West Jerusalem start get targeting and Demona and they'll leave the Northern Israel to Hezbollah. They got that. And there'll be more bombings in the UAE, more, more fireballs in the UAE. Stick with that smile. Yeah, exactly. And actually my, I'm just reading this, they're saying, they're saying Massey Dawson, 2028. That's the ticket they want. But I just make me the attorney general. Yeah, exactly. So you mentioned about Demona. That was actually one thing I was going to ask you. When do they start targeting Demona? I know yesterday they were targeting to the Negev, which is the air base, and they've got some nuclear capability there as well. Is they going to start hitting Negev a bit more harder? Are they going to go for Demona? What's your thoughts? Well, they're like their craft that can actually deliver nuclear weapons is actually in Jerusalem. Demona is where they have their power plants and their uranium-235. But it's not like you hit that and it blows up. It's not. I mean, well, a power plant, you could cause a fission reaction. You don't want that. That would kill a bunch of civilians. But if you want to get rid of their capacity to hit you with bombs, you got to hit West Jerusalem. Interesting. It's right there near the coast. We showed exactly where it is. You could target that. With Haifa gone, that's two ports down. Ben-Gurion, if you keep pressure on there, that'll become unusable and they can't resupply. They're going to have to capitulate. They can lie about the damage and casualties until they can. And it's a lot worse than what they're letting on. No doubt. No doubt. Now, one last question. I know I said it before. About the ground invasion. We've talked about Karaj Islands. What about what's your actual thought about these two things, which is real ground invasion through Iraq, a proper 500,000, maybe even more army of a ground invasion and all them using a nuclear bomb? It's like, oh, we're going to send in the Kurds. That didn't happen either. Yeah. Going in on the ground, this is a logistic nightmare. It would take months to prepare. I don't even know if you could get in northern Iraq. You might have to start in Saudi Arabia. If they decide to do that, we'll all see it coming and they'll be harassed the whole time. And it's just that. No, I don't see that happen. Nukes. Oh. Israel would do it. I think America right now, like they can't justify it. They can't even justify what they're doing without a nuke. And, you know, for Israel to start a war and lose and so America nukes Iran, that would be the end of all nonproliferation. Everybody would be racing to get the bomb. Yeah, they would. And it would be, it's a real risk of clap back. Iran can build a nuke and use one on Israel. So I almost want a nuke. No, it's, I think that's off the table. Trump doesn't like the N word. He really, I honestly think he thought this was going to be like a 48 hour war. Kelly, I'll a total clap, like another Venezuela. He did not want a war war. He's it's contained to an air war. Mouthing off about troops on the ground is Hegseth and Kuster. There's weasels in his ear. They all have no idea what they're talking about. You don't have an, you don't have a staging ground. You don't have it. You can't just put in a half a million soldiers and go across the Zagris mountains. Like you can, but no, you cannot. Yeah. The public will isn't there. It's an unpopular war. You look how unpopular we get when you get 30,000 casualties. Forget about it. And why doesn't Israel send their Marines to the island or their army into Iraq? Yeah. Well, this is the question. Exactly. Well, this is the question that those Americans who are supporting this, are they not waking up to the fact that even the, if they do go to courage Island and all they do this ground invasion, why is there no Israeli soldiers doing it? Because they're pussies and they just, why? I mean, their soldiers are doing it, but they send in the goy, go die for us, goyum. They hate you and they use you and you go anyway. You're going to lose your sons for what Iran was not a threat to the United States at all. This is not in our national interest at all, but there's some people that just hate the Muslims. And what's the ironic thing is like some of the, say like rape and whatever in the UK and here and there and terrorist attack, almost exclusively Sunni, never from Iran. You can't just be like the Muslim because a Muslim from anywhere did a thing. So therefore we have to invade Iran. It doesn't make any sense at all. It's like blaming Christians in Sudan, killing each other and saying, well, that's what Christians everywhere do. It doesn't work, but they, a lot of it's prejudice. They're, they're thinking where are they getting these missiles from? They built them themselves. What are you talking about? Like, no, no, they're just like sand derka derka, right? No, Iran has a higher average IQ than the United States. Um, maybe not every individual state, but higher than the average of the United States and way higher than the rest of the Middle East, including Israel. Yeah. Yeah, I agree. And you're right. That's just a fact. There's nothing to disagree about. Like, that's a fact. The only people outpacing Iran is East Asia. Yeah, this is true. This is true. Uh, and maybe some of these, uh, European countries as well, uh, like the Nordic countries. But yeah, I, yeah, sometimes Finland does, but, uh, yeah, it's kind of a tie. It's really just like it's Singapore, China, Japan, Korea. That's right. Are always the top five. And then it's like Finland, Estonia, and Iran. Like, those are the other ones. Yeah, true, true. Ryan, obviously, always. The one closest to Asia. Nah, bro. This guy, bro. Uh, this guy's got Asian supremacy. This is a problem. Well, you know what it is, is they had a rule against fucking your cousins and that matters. Like, not inbreeding does a bit better genetics. I agree. Not a racial thing or any of that. Just they didn't, the way they had it is they got that out first. So, another big thing is if you look at it, like Norway, Finland, and Japan got rid of leaded gasoline first. Leaded gasoline did drop IQ points by about 10 points. True. So, sometimes it's an environmental thing. And also, the East Asian countries, basically, their harem system didn't basically take out the best of the female population out of the genetic pool as well. They had a specific edict. So, there was many things that they did that, over time, benefited their IQ. I completely agree with that. There's a thing. I think Andrew Tate would agree with this. Like, the more feminine you are, the worse driver you are. So, who are the worst drivers? Asian women. And who are the most feminine? Asian women. There you go. That's crazy. Okay.
