The Iran War’s Dangerous Endgame
(00:00.43)
It’s always a devil in the details and devil in the details on the Iran war. Marco Rubio, our secretary of state said that there’s some good signs of peace deal can be reached. However, we put out statements, the Iranians put out statements and again, they don’t match. I don’t know who’s lying. I don’t know who’s saying what. I don’t know really what’s going on.
What I do know is it moves markets very violently. still moves oil markets and people that are trading on some of this information that have that information, they’re doing really, really well. But I want to get into some of the details. As it stands right now, Iran is saying that, sorry, we’re not giving up any of our nuclear material.
hearing. What I’m hearing is that in essence, we’re going to have to come up with some sort of conclusion sooner rather than later, our own assessments. And again, you’re not going to hear Hegseth talking about this or anyone, know, but these are assessments that eventually gets out Washington Post and other places that Iran is reconstituting its drone making capabilities and a myriad
of other things. So you get the the you know, all of the armchair warriors out there, we got to go in, we got to finish them off. We got to invade, we got to do this, we got to do that. Okay. Okay. As it stands right now, as it stands right now, we have burned through more than 50 % of our advanced missile defense arsenal.
Now, I want you to wait for this, okay? We fired more than 200 THAAD interceptors to counter Iranian ballistic missiles. Israel, on the other hand, didn’t use any of theirs.
(02:19.038)
I’m just telling you this is this these are facts, you know, again, don’t shoot the messenger. Don’t get angry with me. OK, is it a fax? They they really didn’t use much of theirs at all. Little few, few and far between. We were the ones that did that. And now we are we’re down by 50 percent. If Iran still has its capabilities of launching missiles,
You don’t think that they’re aware of this. And they’ve already said you attack us again. We are going to take the gloves off and we’re going to attack infrastructure within the region. Again, what else are they going to hit in Iran? And you had whack jobs out there like Shapiro and Mark. Blow up Cark Island. Take out this. Take out that. They’re going to do the same thing to the UAE and.
all these other places which will do what to the global economy? We have a basically a mutually assured destruction situation right here without nukes. That should have been thought through ahead of time in my opinion. In my opinion, I said, you know, I’m not there, but, know, we saw that this was going to be problematic. Everyone else saw that this was going to be problematic.
Interesting yesterday.
the House, Mike Johnson pulled, pulled a vote because they wanted to actually utilize the War Powers Act. Basically, they canceled the vote on a resolution directing Trump to withdraw U.S. forces from Iran or win approval from Congress to continue the war. They wanted if this was a that was put up there.
(04:21.262)
They couldn’t defeat the measure Republicans in the house Couldn’t defeat the measure. So Mike Johnson had to pull it That’s where Congress is right now Some other interesting details that are taking place and again, this is flying underneath the radar We are pulling our arm sail to Taiwan
or pausing it. And we’re doing this to preserve munitions. Now that’s what we’re saying. I don’t know if that’s the case. I don’t know if that’s an excuse for us to say, hey, you know what, we’re stepping away from Taiwan or, know, Xi Jinping may have, you know, checkmated us on something. I don’t know. I’m just telling you that we are pausing the arms sale to Taiwan. Again, not really making
much news out there. This is where we’re at right now. Again, you don’t know what to believe when things are put out. It’s kind of, you know, it’s like that little boy who cried wolf. Oh, we’re this close. Almost there. We got it. No, it’s not.
Iran also demanding reparations to fix their country. they’re saying, we’re gonna put a toll booth up in the Strait of Hormuz, we’re gonna put a toll, you know, because we’ve gotta pay for this. I think that the only way that’s gonna come down is that they’re gonna have to get some sort of money. Again, I’m hoping that my belief system,
in regards to this entire thing is wrong. Okay, I hope that I’m off on this.
(06:25.547)
Look at where we’re at right now.
we’re at right now. Yeah, again, I mentioned this weeks ago that the president just needed to declare victory, know, borrow George W. Bush’s mission, mission accomplished banner that he put up and walk away, spin it however you want to spin it, say we needed to take out their ballistic missiles, and we made them weaker, say whatever you need to say, okay, again, your people are going to believe it. Your people are going to believe it and walk away.
because I don’t see very much of a great end game. And I know, I know the same thing. It’s parroted again and again and again and again. know, it reminds me of that.
The movie Idiocracy, which again, great. It’s unfortunate that it’s coming true. In the movie, they’re set in the future. People are just ridiculously dumb and ruining their crops because they’re pouring sports drink on it. And it’s got electrolytes in it because it’s got electrolytes in it. That’s why it’s great. Bruno’s got electrolytes. And it’s just like, Iran can’t have a nuclear weapon. Iran can’t have a nuclear weapon. Iran can’t have a nuclear weapon. They weren’t close to having.
nuclear weapon, our own intelligence said so, but again you say that and Iran can’t have a nuclear weapon and again it just it doesn’t compute that they weren’t close to having a nuclear weapon but and that’s that’s what they’re selling that’s what’s for sale and people are gonna choose to believe it or not believe it but
(08:10.287)
could be me calling me crazy. No one was worried about Iran. Let me ask you a question. January the 5th, you’re even thinking about Iran? Is that even a thought on your mind, a concern out there? No, I don’t think so. Anyway, watchdog on wallstreet.com.
