Food For Thought: Trump's Iran war – 'They have chosen death. We have to fight it out.'

"Control over the collateral is ultimately what this is all about and how does city of London survive this? When I took a step back and asked myself the question, you're dealing with Trump, you're dealing with Israel, you're dealing with China, you're dealing with this, you're dealing with all these things, how do they maintain what they currently have? Because they have nothing else. They have no navy, they have no military. They have no this. They have no ability to project power. So, they have to hold on to what they currently have, which is the the ability to create chaos and pull a vig off of it on all sides of the equation. In that respect, Iran, the IRGC is a very powerful tool. The same way that the elites in Israel are a very powerful tool, just like the neocons in the United States are a very powerful tool. And all of these tools when you take a step back and you realize how China, Russia and United States and their demographics are evolving, really all of those look like rapidly depreciating assets. You either use them or you lose them. Americans have no interests in dying for Israel anymore."
