Transcript

Welcome back to the show everyone. It's your host Danny Haiphong. We have a big show for you today. So please hit that
like button as you come on to boost the stream in the algorithm. Welcome, welcome, welcome. I want to talk about
Pete Hegsth's warning to US adversaries. FAFO.
Uh this was the warning the secretary of war sent to so-called US adversaries in front of a crowd of 800 generals and
admirals in Kaneko, Virginia during a much hyped rare emergency meeting. The
warning though has been spurned worldwide. Yemen is resuming attacks on US ships affiliated with the largest
energy corporations in the world such as Chevron and Exxon Mobile. Russia is recruiting harder and faster to confront
any NATO escalation coming its way. And Arshnik are moving to Barus any second
now should Trump make good on his tomahawk threat. And as the US sends tankers to Qatar in a fresh fresh
escalation against Iran, Iran is warning that the US should not push its luck in a war against it. To discuss all of this
and more, I have with me great friends of the show, former CIA analyst Larry
Johnson and former Chief of Staff to the US State Department and retired Army
Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson. Gentlemen, good to see you again. Hi there. Hey, Danny.
Hey, hey, hey. Great to be with you. Everyone, hit the like button once again. That helps boost this stream. Now, let's first begin with some not so
well-covered news at the moment, but we're going to open it with these infamous words now from uh Pete Hegth.
His warning to so-called quote unquote US adversaries at this disastrous speech
that he gave in front of 800 generals and admirals in Virginia. to our enemies.
F A F O
if necessary our So I only wanted to play that because he paused for effect. There was no real
response. That was uh there's 800 people plus in that room uh generals and admirals. They didn't respond very
kindly to that. There was no claps, no cheers. But as this was happening, uh,
Colonel works in LA, we have, uh, the Enserella resuming attacks in the Red
Sea. Uh, now they hit a Dutch cargo ship in the Gulf of Adon earlier last week.
And now what is happening after that actually injured two people and
and uh made the ship un uh uh inhabitable. The
uh reports are now that Yemen is looking to
actually continue strikes against US exporters in and around the area of the
Red Sea. includes Exxon Mobile, Chevron, 13 American corporations are now going
to be targeted by Ensurala despite this so-called ceasefire that Trump brokered
earlier in 2025. So, I wanted to start with you, Colonel. Uh, actually, let me start with you,
Larry Johnson. Uh, the where do you place this move in its significance in
the context of uh other uh buildup? We see Israel desperately intercepting the
freedom flutillas, the Samud flotillas and we also see of course a military buildup by the United States in the
region visav Qatar. Uh but yet you have Yemen continuing its attacks now on US
ships. A pretty big development that's not being spoken about. Lots of silence on the US side. What are your thoughts on this? Well, it's it's all theater
from the standpoint that remember when Trump announced that the Yemenes had capitulated in the end of March after 7
weeks of efforts to shut Yemen down and Trump had said, "Yeah, they've
capitulated and all all we did was we just declared victory and left. Yemen did no such
thing." So that's what makes um Hexess juvenile remark in that context about
you know the f around find out um you
know as I was surveying the crowd it was it was an older crowd so some of them
could be excused for not necessarily knowing what that acronym is. would be more appropriate for someone hex's age.
But, you know, the United States clearly is taking a variety of uh military
postures that seem to indicate we're going to we're going to do something. The the buildup of the naval force and
the and the air power off the coast of Venezuela, uh that that can't be indefinitely s
sustained. That's that's expensive. Um and and similarly we're we're getting
the reports that uh the um tankers that are refueling tankers KC135s are now
heading into they went into Britain and apparently are reportedly going to the Gulf. So all that besp speaks of you
know the possib we saw that same pattern before the US attacks on Iran on June
24th. Now, the the thing that really bothered
me about what Trump and Hex said was not so much what they said.
It was the silence of all of these officers. None of them
had the balls to stand up, throw the flag, and walk out.
Well, I like my job too much. I want to hang on to my job, my career.
I mean, look, either they agree with what Trump and Hegith are saying, which I don't,
or they've got the stones, the spine to stand up and say, "No, what you're
you're the particularly this female commander of Southcom. What Trump has
ordered in terms of military action in that region is illegal. It's a criminal
act. It's an illegal order." And she should have stood up and said, "No, I
think you know Colonel Wilkerson pointed out the last time I think the last the guy to do it
was Fred Warner. You know, we couldn't remember the name last time, but then it came back and he was replaced by a guy a
general that was known as Mad Max Thurman. And you know, whenever you've got whenever you're a general and they
call you Mad Max, it's usually not a term of endearment.
Yeah. in in and Colonel Wilkerson uh staying with the Yemen story and I find
it very interesting that uh you know Yemen hit this Dutch ship. They've sunk US uh uh fighter planes, those Hornet
jets, and now they're resuming attacks. But no one is talking about this even as the US uh Heg Seth and Trump are both uh
blustering about how the US is the most powerful military force in the world that can uh show its enemies uh f around
and find out uh that it is at any given moment. What's your what's your thoughts about this and the overall situation uh
that we find ourselves in vis? Well, I think it's rather fascinating
and and I'll have to say that of all the billion dollar or near billion dollar
militaries around the world, six or seven at least, um the people who gained
my imminent respect are the youth, the Houthis, Alansar. Um, they are
indestructible apparently, indeigable apparently, and very effective
apparently, and honed and aimed at specific targets that in my view they
should be honed and aimed at if they want to do something to relieve the murderous genocide that's happening in
the Levant. And let me just back up for a moment and and give you and your listeners a little bit of insight into
modern shipping. When you talk about modern shipping, I'll give you an example. When I used to
ship my entire Air Calvary Squadron to Korea for exercise team spirit, this was
all beginning to happen. We would the army would lease really big huge
onload offload ships like from Sweden. They would be automobile carriers. There
would be other sophisticated large ships carrying huge cargos and I would put my
entire squadron on there virtually all my helicopters, tanks, APCs and such.
That ship crossing the Pacific to Korea from Honolulu
had maybe 10 people on it. Everything else was automated. And that's the way
the these ships are today. So, it's doesn't take a whole lot to frighten the
few people that are on a big ship like that and it doesn't take a whole lot to disable a ship like that if you know
what you're doing. And apparently the Houthis do. Um, so this is really a
consequential act with regard to international shipping. And I'll tell you another thing that most Americans
and others of your listeners don't know. When I was doing the disruption of
petroleum products in the world exercise in Beijing in 2009 with virtually the
world participating including Lloyds of London, including Marad, the maritime
people who look after ships at sea and so forth and including insurers other
than Lloyds, including Lloyds. And one of the things that we discovered in that
exercise was just how volatile shipping is in the world and how easy it is to
close down shipping lanes and cause insurance rates to go through the roof and to cause people not to shift and to
go to land routes even though they may be more expensive rail you know whatever it might be truck. So when the Houthis
do this, this is way above their weight in terms of impact. And we have been, as
Larry intimated, we have been utterly inconsequential in doing anything about
it. And yet claimed that we had won. So the empire looks feckless, stupid,
ignorant, and incapable of even taking on this small group of terrorists in Yemen. terrorists I use guardedly.
Right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You you would have gotten the the I've been corrupted. I've been corrupted
by the south side of Chicago is full of terrorists according to Trump in exile.
You're right. Or everywhere all the US cities. Uh Larry, your your uh to you back back
to you, Larry Johnson. you know, your your thoughts about this because a lot of people are saying that Iran uh is is
going to blow up again uh very soon and uh yet we see both uh the Trump
administration and Israel have no capacity and capabilities to quote unquote finish their uh conflicts, their
wars against Yemen, against the Palestinian people even. And yet there's talk about even more war. Uh how how do
you see this uh playing out, not not necessarily a crystal ball, but the just
the scenario of the US getting deeper and deeper into into war and now Yemen
saying it's going to escalate given everything that the US has done up until this point.
Sort of like watching a perverse frat party where all of the frat boys are completely three sheets to the wind
drunk. They get their car keys. They all go out and get into the car into the cars and drive off. You know, there's
going to be a crash. Okay. And and that's that's what I'm looking at right now. There's going to be a crash. Uh
there there is too much war talk not just with respect to Iran but uh with in
Ukraine with Russia and in Venezuela and in Gaza. I mean it's like this it's it's
like an infection or or or some sort of uh you know mass sickness that has taken
hold of the world. So, um, and there's a private part of me, particularly with
respect to Israel, that I hope they do it because they're going to get their ass kicked and I do want to see the
Zionists get their ass kicked dramatically. So, that's the only thing
that's going to stop the genocide. We've we've already seen that the vast
majority of countries in the world are content to let this murder go on. Oh, they may they may, you know, make some
statements and oh, we think that's really bad, but they actually don't do anything that they're capable of doing,
such as shutting down commerce, closing down the embassy. Now, do give the go the president of Colombia credit. He
threw the Israelis out yesterday. They'll shut down the whole delegation. Basically, they told him, "Out of out of
our country. We don't want you here anymore." Good. That's a start. If if
you know 150 countries didn't then maybe Israel would start getting the message that it can't continue to be this
murderous group of thugs that they have been. Um it is clear that Iran learned
some lessons from that 12-day war which started on June 13th concluded with this
you know Kabuki theater bombing of Qatar of Aluded Air Force Base in coordination
with the United States lifting some sanctions on on Iran. But prior to that the the Iranians had
been a little cherry in terms of their um relationships with Russia and China.
I mean, they were friendly, but they they essentially rebuffed offers of strong military support.
You know, I don't know if it's one of those eedran commercial moments. This is way before your time, but there there
used to be a commercial in the 60s where this woman had a headache and her mother was trying to talk to her and she'd go,
"Mother, please. I'd rather do it myself." That was a little bit like Iran, you know, we'd rather do it
ourselves. Leave. Let us figure this out. Well, they realized that they need some help, that, you know, they'll get
by with a little help from their friends. And the Russian and Chinese have been pouring in substantial
resources, military resources, technical resources, human resources to support that. So that
they're uh Iran is much much better prepared now for the next round that's
going to come. And I would argue that the west is far less prepared because
you know already what was it 50% of all US THAAD missile batteries you know the
the terminal high altitude air defense systems 50% of those are deployed in in
Israel right now um we only produce 50 missiles a year maybe it's up to 70 now
but when you consider the fact that you fire two of those at a cost to 13 million a piece at every inbound
hypersonic Iranian missile that those THADs can intercept, you rapidly deplete
them. And and so what what we're going to see in this next go round is a much more rapid depletion of uh of Israel's
air defense system. Yeah. And uh Colonel Wilkerson, talk
about uh uh the role then of Yemen because Larry was talking about Iran's
friends and of course Sarala is one of its its biggest. How has its escalations
uh in the Red Sea, its not only its promise to hit US tanker, you know, oil tankers and the like uh but its ongoing
operations both against uh those trading with Israel via the Red Sea and Israel
itself uh through its uh you know nearly daily missile launches against it. How
how has that assisted the situation or changed the situation in any way uh now
that there's talk of a renewed war against Iran? Well, I think it's it's
it's a much broader tapestry than just Yemen. Yemen adds to it, of course, and is a proof positive of the empire's
factlessness, having pronounced that we had defeated them and left, and they're still very
much alive and very much doing damage. But I'll pick up on Larry's point that I
I I think we're at a Barbara Tuckland moment right now where the people in the
world are so woodenheaded and that was her phrase and I think it's an excellent phrase led by the empire so woodenheaded
that we are marching toward what is inevitably going to be in the beginning
a very vicious violent regional war that
will turn perhaps itself self into an exchange of nuclear weapons. But even if
it doesn't and Israel goes down and the United States inevitably comes in to try
and prevent Israel from collapsing completely and takes on Iran full boore,
then there's a distinct possibility that it will widen quickly, join Ukraine in
that widening and we will wind up with a not just a regional war, but we'll wind
up with a world war and we'll be all on the side of those with nuclear weapons
contra contemplating use of those weapons before it's over with. And let me back up for a moment and tell you
that I have no doubt in my mind, not any doubt at all, that BB Netanyahu will
resort to a nuclear weapon if he's going down. And if Trump delays in any way or
enters the frey only incrementally and not in a way that gives BB immediate
relief as he is going down just from a conventional response by Iran, he'll use
nuclear weapons. So we're at a point where
Marber Tuckman would say wouldn't people are everywhere and we're marching the war. The difference the salient
huge different is differences. We're dealing with nuclear weapon owning
states and I'm not even mentioning the new pack between Islamabad and Riad and
some other developments that Larry was hinting at with regard to Russia and China and their ultimate support for
Iran. We're headed into a scenario that is not just
productive of a regional war of great consequence, but that regional war getting out of control and becoming more
or less a western front war, if you will, from all the way from the Arctic down to the North Arabian Sea and
nuclear weapons possessed by several people in that war. That is a really
frightening scenario. Now, let me jump in that. Yeah, but the
raising Barbara Tuckman and and sort of the inanity of World War I. I mean, when
you go back and try to explain, okay, what did World War I start? Why? I mean, what was the real reason?
you sort of like you really come back I don't know you know it's not like you
know if you're sitting in your house and you have a firearm and someone is breaking through your door or breaking
through the window and you then you shoot them there's at at least there's a reason why you use the violence
but we're sitting here looking saying why did why did England literally
sacrifice millions of its of its people and in the process
they ended up destroying their status as the preeminent global empire. That was
that was sort of the high water mark for the United Kingdom and because after that that started the decline
uh as the the the empire was coming apart. I think this if if it goes the
way I fear that it's going to go with this with this war that we're on the horizon of again a war totally
avoidable. Yeah, totally avoidable. Iran's willing to talk and negotiate. Russia willing to
talk and negotiate. Hamas willing to talk and negotiate.
It's the United States against yes for an answer. And in the process, I think
we will end up destroying our own hegemonic role. Now, some will see that
as the silver lining. Um and and I'm sort of inclined to agree with that that you know the United States has been on
this power drunk uh ride for 70 years 80
years and in in the process we've shown a lot of death and misery around the world and really haven't worked on
making the world a better place and uh now on the threshold of us taking
to our natural conclusion that which we pursued and it's it's going to I I think it's going to end up destroying us.
Yeah. And uh Colonel Wilkerson, finally before moving on, I just wanted to ask
you, do you see that what hap has happened in in Gaza, the fact that, you
know, Israel for all the people that can kill all the Palestinians, they can't uh wipe away the resistance, that certainly
does not look like the case at all. Uh Yemen, Ansar, the US and Israel have not
been able to weaken them one bit. actually they seem more defiant and more
uh and and stronger in their resistance uh than uh prior. And then of course
Iran the 12-day war revealed that Israel really did have to rely on a surprise and now there seems to be no surprise.
It just seems to be very out there and open uh and Iran has been you know
viewing this and acting upon this for months now given that there's been now months of talks of renewed strikes and and they have those clamors have gotten
louder. Uh what's your view on this? Well, Larry summed it up. I I think and I'll just take it a little more deeply.
Um we have created a situation, we the American Empire, and I won't even throw
too many of our allies in there. There are a few I'd throw in there like Britain, that little lackey over on the
other side of the Atlantic. We have created a world where twothirds
of the people in that world hate our guts. twothirds of the people in the world
hate our guts. Now, a lot of that is instantaneous with the support we've
given to this horrible situation. And I I can't put an adjective on it that's
adequate to describe it in Gaza and more broadly in Southwest Asia.
A lot of it is due to that. I mean, just the revulsion that the world feels its
leaders won't do anything. Larry's absolutely right about that. They're a feckless bunch of bastards. They won't
do anything about it. Petro in Colombia. He, as Larry said, he kicked the last four out. I think it was four that he
kicked out of Israel. He told him not to shine anywhere in Colombia anymore as a diplomatic delegation. He'd already
kicked most of them out. Um, that man's shown some courage, but not many world
leaders have shown it. They Oh, they talk a good show, but they don't stop trade with Israel. They don't cut off
oil to Israel. They don't do things that would really hurt Israel. They just talk
a good show. So, we're at a point where the world is balancing, moving fast,
swift, more swiftly than I thought to balance what they consider to be an an entirely unwelcome
and even dangerous empire. And that's more that that's
happened since 911. It's really happened since 911. You could say it's been building since we gained the hubris that
we gained post World War II, but it's really been happening since 911. We haven't had an we haven't had a single
competent president. We haven't had a single, in my view competent leader of
the military establishment, and I include Millie in that. I applaud his remarks. I applaud his ethics as he
expressed them anyway. But I don't applaud his war fighting or strategic skills at all. We haven't had anyone
willing to stand up to the commanderin-chief and tell him he's naked as a freaking Jbird in the Oval
Office. None. No courage whatsoever. And we have people going out and praying.
I've been reading it how they prayed about what Hegith and and Trump said at
Quanico and they wanted to extol the wonderful American military. How great it is. They were talking to these
wonderful warriors out there. How dare they do that? Poppyccock. Poppyccock. We
haven't won anything that the military participated in in 25 plus years. We
have a miserable military leadership and we have a miserable military. I'm sorry
boys and girls out there. I know I was in you for 31 years, but I tell you
what, you aren't the greatest military in the world like everybody's claiming. And if you want proof of the pudding,
get into this business that Larry and I have just described because you are going to suffer a 100% hellacious defeat
and the empire is going to crumble. That's what we're looking at. And as we
crumble, as we crumble, Danny, we will go to nuclear weapons.
Yes. Um, there is a really bad audio issue going on on all of our sides. I
feel like I don't know what is happening. NSA is NSA is coming in. I can tell you that
it's crackling. Everyone, me, you, Larry. Um, I'm not sure what's going on.
I'm hearing it on my end. I'm not hearing it on my end either. Um,
and I don't really know how I would fix this. Um,
let me see if I can do something really quick here. Um,
you think I'm joking about the NSA?
I am not. So, I I changed the definition and everyone is still saying it's breaking
up. What I can It's probably It's probably my bombass.
What I can do uh is I will remove all of us and see if that does anything. Um
let's see. Uh that's not it. Let me just You want us to log off and log on?
Yeah, maybe if you can do that. I can't do that. Uh
all right. Is it still crackling everybody? Is it still
Uh, it says the stream is crashing on YouTube's end. Uh,
man, this is really frustrating. Um, really frustrating. I'm not sure what's
going on here. Is it still going on?
Yeah, it is. It still is.
And I told him who I told them who you were and they asked me if you were effective
and I said, "Yeah, I think so."
I changed after you. Is that any better?
No, it's not. I can hear it on the other side. Um,
we might have to How about that? Uh, I checked uh
try to turn off reduce microphone background noise. Was that help at all? I don't know. I
say change the bit rate. I changed it on my end. I can't really um do it anymore
from my end. Uh let me try taking off this and see if that's got anything to do with it. Now
it's everyone everyone's saying restart the stream but that's that's a very
difficult I just did that so yeah yeah I'm talking um
talking over the computer now right right well what I could do is I
could uh people are saying it's only my voice
now okay yo I knew you were doing it I knew you were doing it
Hold Let me see. Uh, I don't want to waste too much.
Go to the audio settings and try hitting reduce microphone background noise.
People are saying it seems to be just me. What I'll do is I'm going to uh
I'm going to reload and unplug in everything. So, if you guys actually
uh All right. All right. It's everyone's
audio. It's not just me. Yeah, you're coming in loud and clear to
me. Yeah. So is Larry. Yeah.
So, I'll reload myself. Um but I don't think I don't know if that's going to
fix anything. I'll be Meanwhile, Larry and I can have a conversation. Yeah, we we'll take control. We're
running the show. By the way, here here's what I got out of that discussion. Um, we we have
apparently an Ahmad Chalaby operating with regard to Venezuela.
Yeah, that guy named Rodil. Yeah, exactly. And yeah, with Gary B with Gary Bernson.
Yeah. And everything's going through Laura Loomer and Steve Miller and not going through Tulsi or anybody else in
the complex. Yeah. Trump is believing it just like he's believing Kellogg when he gives him
briefings on casualties and such with regard to Ukraine. Yeah. That's what I've been alarmed by
this. So, you know, what Trump said a week ago, I took as trolling. But then
since then, you've had JD Vance as well come out uh with this nonsense that
Ukraine's winning, Russia's losing, Russia's suffering mass. I mean, it's just it's all nonsense. It's all a lie.
And yet, you know, I can understand someone with Trump's, you know, limited mental faculties embracing something
like that. All right, I'm back, everyone. Is it any better? Any better? We'll find out.
Is my mic any better? Because uh I can also just um
It's better. Uh or is it cracking still? Sound is very good. Everyone says sound
is very good. Yeah. So, you're good. So, look, we're we're having a discussion here, Danny.
So, just wait a second. So, no, but but but the fact that you know
Trump last week said after he called after he called Russia a paper tiger,
he said he said, "Oh, I'm not going to say that again." And he said it again. Yeah. On Monday. So, it's like they are
they're hellbent on on pushing Russia into a confrontation.
I think so. And again, I think that's deeply dangerous.
And they got enough willing NATO people idiots to go along with them that it's
scary. Yeah. Yeah. All right, Danny, you can take control of yourself
back in. Hey,
and I just ran a a combination CIA DoD coup.
Hey, hey, hey. You know, um I would be the target of such a thing. So, if it's gonna be any it's gonna be anyone in it,
it'll it I want it to be you guys. Um, but um, all right. People are saying it's fixed
now. Give me one one uh one more uh, okay, I'm okay. Say for the chat.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10. E, sansu. That's Chinese. So, give me someone in the
chat. Just tell me I'm good and then we're gonna get right starting. All right. Good. Um, okay. Let's get right back to
it, gentlemen. So, I wanted to now uh
talk about some of the other um kind of
embarrassing in Yeah. My my question to you was going to be um you know, given
Israel's just and the United States's inability to achieve their so-called objectives in
the region, some say destruction and and killing is that. I don't necessarily believe that's the entire thing even if
uh that's a big part of it. But at the same time, I wanted to pull up what's
been going on. Okay. So, we have uh this
scene uh during Benjamin Netanyahu's visit to the White House. Trump uh
published photos from this meeting where he had a phone on his lap while Netanyahu was phoning Qatar apologizing
to the prime minister there about the the strikes that happened uh earlier in
September uh in an attempt to kill the Hamas negotiators on the part of Israel.
Now amid this theater of course we've seen uh the United States sending
tankers. This is the national interest. Why did they send aerial tankers to Qatar? Previous deployments of these
KC135 Strato tanker aerial refuelers in the Middle East have often come before
US military action, citing that this was occurring in the wake of the US's
intervention into the 12day war. Uh how about we start with you Colonel
Wilkerson especially in response to the significance of this buildup and this
kind of theater you know this theater around Qatar also comes with security guarantees to Qatar around especially
the alyu day at base which Iran happened to strike um at the eve at the very end
of the 12-day war. What's your assessment of this situation? I think there are poss there are several
possible scenarios. I think it's all a faint. Um, but I don't think that's the
most likely scenario. I think the most likely one is that we understand and
probably have talked about with him BB Netanyahu's intent to go up and take the
uh the war toxin, if you will, to Iran again. Um, and this time he plans on
finishing them off in in other words, regime change. Um, and I think maybe BB
even knows this. I'm not sure he does because his military acummen of late has
slipped majorly. Uh, and all I have to do is look at the IDF's invasion, recent
invasion of the last part of Gaza to say that it slipped marketkedly. So, I think
he's counting on and has probably got assurances from Donald Trump, although I don't know how much stock he puts in
those assurances um at this point that Trump will follow him because otherwise he's going to be
destroyed. Uh Israel, the rump state of Israel, what's left of Israel is going to be utterly destroyed. Uh and he's not
going to affect regime change in Iran. He may do some damage, but he's going to be the one who's damaged the most.

Part 2 of 2

So this is prima facie evidence if you will that we're preparing for this just as it was that we were preparing
for the nuclear site strikes with the B2s and um and the 12-day war. Um that's
the most likely thing we're doing is very visibly positioning forces.
But it's pretty hard not to visibly position them. I mean, I I remember a newspaper. Remember Katie Cor? Katie
Corick used to sit on my corporal's desk and pull her skirt up a little bit and get all the poop from my corporal about
the chairman's office. Well, Katie became a little bit more sophisticated than that later as a defense
correspondent. And she would tell me from time to time, "We know exactly what the points are. We go here, here, here,
and here, and we know what you're going to do in terms of deployment of forces." And that's true largely. Now, you can
faint and fake with that sort of thing as I was hinting at the first option possibly, but most of the time when we
deploy that, it's costly. It's very costly and therefore we're going to do something with it.
Larry, to you. Yeah. No, I mean, you can't um you know, we've had this naval force parked off
the coast of Venezuela now for, you know, four or five weeks. Um, and so
they're not going to stand there. That's not a 3 to four or five month deployment. So they're there for a
purpose. Uh, and it's it's not nothing good. Um, and the same the same way
building starting to build up this tanker force for some sort of air op
whether it's being directed at Iran or directed at Bram, which would be even crazier. Um, you know, we've, uh, Trump
still works under the delusion that the US military is capable of doing
more than it actually can do. And, you know, that should have been the lesson
out of the last failed attempt to shut down the Houthis. um with all with a carrier task force
with destroyers with you know missile destroyers we were we had to run away and we ran
away in Afghanistan after 20 plus years we essentially ran away out of Iraq
after 14 years so you know the United States cannot point to any situation
where we've used military force that we've been able to totally dominate except maybe Grenada
because they didn't have an army and and Panama because we had all of our military bases already inside the
country. Yeah. And um and it's it's deterior Danny. It's
deteriorated majorly since Just Cause and uh Desert Shield, Desert Storm. It
it's just deteriorated. It's deteriorated in terms of leadership, strategic accumment, and a defense
industrial base and product of that defense industrial base. I mean, we just
aren't the same military we were 20 years ago. And we weren't all that
capable then. Look at what we've done now. And and Larry's right. You can't
put the US Navy on the high seas in multiple theaters and expect any of them
to be victorious at any given time because there's not enough power there to do anything.
Yeah. Yeah. Well, and and and sort of in addition to that, maybe another way to say it is
actually our military hasn't changed and that's part of the problem because the
world has changed technologically. You know, you could go back. I remember
at I'll call it the dawn of the use of a video teleconference in the military. Uh
I remember it very clearly. It was like 2003. Uh we were in Stogart
uh and we were doing this was a this was a Yukon uh exercise. You've got both you
have Aricom and Yukon both based at at patch and Kelly barracks there. And I
remember this Marine colonel sitting down in front of this tiny screen that
all of a sudden, man, he was he was having video chats with these different, you know, he was like a monkey with a
watch and from then on uh when I would do work
at JSOK, I you'd come in, you know, we'd be working an exercise, but like from uh
0800 to 0930, uh you know, there was uh Stan Mcrist
doing a global video teleconference. And so you would see you would see different
uh command centers in in Iraq and in Afghanistan and in Somal. I mean it was
truly global. And they do that twice a day. But the point is that as we've developed
this technology, we've we've forgotten that now things that we used to be able to hide pretty
easily are not easy to hide anymore. Particularly the movement of forces. You
know, you go back 80 years to World War II and somehow the Soviets were able to
mass the movement of the forces that were brought forward for Operation Uranus that the surrounding and ultimate
defeat of the sixth army at Stalenrad. So we're no longer in that situation
that you you can't easily hide this stuff and particularly with the United States and Russia and the Chinese and
the Indians with different satellites, you know, eyes in the sky
and and like Lord Sauron and you know Lord of the Rings with that one big eye, man, we got lots of eyes everywhere.
Yeah. About the about the only place you can hide anymore is under the sea in submarines. Yep.
That's about it though. Yeah. And uh lastly on West Asia before
we By the way, Danny, I gota I gotta add this. Last night I read a report on how
many nuclear weapons have been uploaded to Israeli submarines.
And what was the uh Very very disturbing. Very disturbing.
Yeah. That's their ultimate last line of defense. Yeah. Yeah. Well, that's what I was
wondering about is given that the for me the the genocide,
the sparking an open conflict with Iran, of course, moving into all these other
fronts, Lebanon, Syria, etc. Uh that's all that Israel really has left beyond
the nuclear option, uh other than the nuclear option. and u what it's doing
now won't uh satisfy uh the Israeli regime. It's it's it's obviously not
satisfied uh with what it's been able to do up until this point. Um, and I also
wanted to ask for for a quick uh minute or two before we move on to uh the Ukraine situation about where the Bram
airfield fits into all of these escalations given that Trump very openly said that the US wants that airfield
back especially to surveil China which actually is quite the misinformed
opinion but uh or misinformed objective given how far away even that
airfield is to to uh any so-called Chinese nuclear testing site that hasn't
even been used. Are you talking about Bram? Yes, the Bram Bram airfield. Yeah. So, uh Larry, how about for to you first and
then to Colonel Wilkerson. Yeah, it's Trump's foreign policy Tourett syndrome. He just shout shouts
out random stuff happens to pass through his mind. Comes and goes. Uh I I don't
think there's actually any serious uh plan or intent to try to do that because frankly the United States is not capable
of doing that without sustaining significant losses. Uh so um you know he
he put that on his wish list I guess you know but it's the same thing as remember we're going to uh conquer occupy Panama
take over or take full control of the Panama Canal when that was a thing. Greenland, remember Greenland,
Canada, 51st state. So, you know, it's just it's a form of this is a form of
political Tourette's syndrome is is all I can attribute it to.
Colonel Wilkerson, your thoughts. Well, Donahghue was going to land the 18th Airborne Corps minus on Kenrad,
too. I mean, you know, this this whole bunch of yo-yos is crazy.
So now to the uh Ukraine situation because uh it it is escalating uh
dramatically at least from the words that are coming out the promises that are being made especially on the US and
NATO side. So quietly as Hegs Seth and Trump were thumping their chests in
front of the generals and admirals in Virginia, uh this was announced that the
US will provide Ukraine with intelligence for long right the range strikes in Russia where Kiev would be
able to hit energy sites to target Putin's revenue and reach Moscow with missiles. And uh this isn't all uh when
it comes uh to this. you have NATO. Um, and here are just some absolutely
unhinged comments coming from the uh former UK defense secretary Ben Wallace
about what NATO should be doing um in order to uh beat Putin back.
First of all, um I think what we have to remember is what motivates Putin. Putin is in love with the idea of dominating
Ukraine, taking Ukraine. Crimea is Russia and Russia is Cremain. Crimea. He announced in 2014, if you read his
speeches of 2014, he compares uh Crimea to the Holy Mountain. Uh so we have to
help Ukraine have the long range capabilities to make Crimea unviable. We need to choke the life out of Crimea. Uh
and I think if we do that, I think Putin will realize he's got something to lose. If it is not inhabitable or not possible
uh for it to function and that bridge, we need tourists in from Germany. We need to smash the cursed bridge because
that's an ego. That's a statue to Putin's ego. So, choke the life out of Crimea and
make it unfunctional. Yes. I I got to I got to say what comes to my mind is into the valley of death rode
the 600. Cannon to the right of them. Cannon to the left of them fied and thundered. Into the valley of death rode
the 600. Britain's last time in Crimea.
Yeah. Well, you know, in in Vladimir Putin at uh Valdi, uh he spoke to the
Valdai conference. He he said, "Bring it on that Russia is strong enough to
withstand any of these threats." Here is what he said. He's still Danny, he's still speaking on
many occasions when Yes. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. It's still It's still happening as we speak live.
Yes. Here we go. uh endeavor. Russia proved on many
occasions when threats to our peace and security come up come to the four and
threats to our sovereignty and our statethood, we are swift in responding. No, you should not provoke us. Never
ever did it end badly for the provocators and
uh uh no exceptions will happen in future. There will be none. Our history
proved that weakness in unacceptable because it it gives rise to temptation to a
delusion that and anything may be resolved uh with us and they may have
their way from the position of of of force and indecisiveness and weakness.
Russia will never demonstrate that. It is something that we will never demonstrate. Those who cherish the dream
of inflicting a strategic defeat of us, let them know that. So let them know
that there will be no strategic defeat of Russia. Russia is ready for any of this and and these are these are quite
strong moves. Uh maybe we can begin with you Larry. Uh the this is what we were talking about under the B
administration. These long range strikes approving these long range strikes uh the danger of them and then of course uh
the absolutely unhinged words from while he's the former defense secretary of the UK, he's definitely speaking NATO's
language there with regard to Russia. Your thoughts? Well, show the intelligence. Strike with
what? I mean, you know, you got to got to have put something. They've got to have something to launch. That would be Let's
These really aren't long range. These would be intermediate range uh missiles, ballistic missiles or
cruise missiles. Um the tomahawk they've zalinsky requested the tomahawk but
problem with the tomahawk is the only real system that would work in Ukraine as a ground launch version. Uh there are
not many of those ground launch launchers per se. And then compounding
it is because of its capability of handling a nuclear warhead. Even though
the Tomahawk that you know what currently exists as the Tomahawk cruise missile has not is you know been uh
configured in that way for well over 25 years. Nonetheless
if if such a weapon system was put in there uh this would immediately you know
escalate it beyond what Russia is doing already and would put tactical nuclear
warheads on the table. So, uh, you know, I think that's unlikely, but again, this
US, uh, I I think the US in part is playing a game where it wants to appear, oh, yeah, we're trying to support, but
but the life is draining out of the Ukrainian military that the, uh, the
Russians now are making pretty significant advances in Neprop,
um, in the Nepro oblast. They're also moving north and
from in Zaparisia up up you know basically going up the the river. Um
they are making significant progress in in Daetsk. So there's not there's not a
single area on the battlefield where Ukraine can point to and say, "Oh man, we're not only we holding the Russians
back, but we're pushing them backwards." And Russia is increasing the number of
forces that it's applying in that area. And and yet in spite of all that, you're getting this these claims by Trump and
by JD Vance. I was I was especially appalled by Vance going along with this. I really I really thought better thought
he was better than this. And sadly, he's not. But joining in on this, you know,
Russia's losing all these people, suffering mass casualties. They're not. But if that's what Vance
and Trump want to choose to believe, go ahead and believe that because it's going to bite you in the ass.
Yeah. To you, Colonel Wilkerson, your reaction. Well, at the end of the day, Danny, I keep coming back to this. You know, when
you get a comment like from that former British defense minister is just a Bley who idiot. When you get a comment like
comes out of Maruda from time to time or a lot of these little junior partners in NATO, when you get those kind of
comments that Russia is not a strategic power, that Russia does not have the
capacity to do this or do that. Not only are they lying through their teeth about the immediate evidence at their beck and
call should they want to really look at it, Russia has 6,000 plus nuclear
warheads. Dude, what are you talking about not being strategically capable?
You want to test that? You want to go to that? I think some of these people do. I think some of these people are really
high on some bad stuff and they want to test that. Um, we might be getting at
the southern end of this arc of crisis down there in Southwest Asia. As I said, we might be getting very close to that.
Damn, we don't want to add another place in central Europe where we get close to that. You threaten Russia to the point
where they think they're existentially threatened, they have been crystal clear. They will wipe you out and they
have the capacity to wipe you out several times over.
Yeah. And in this Oh, Larry, please. Well, I was just going to say Gil Dotoro said recently that at least among the
political elite, there's a growing dissatisfaction with Putin over what they view as him being too soft.
Yes. And too too restrained. Now, that
that may be true. Uh, you know, I don't doubt that Gil's telling what he understands, but watching Putin, you
know, because after, you know, he did that speech for about 40 minutes and he's been sitting in a chair now for two
and a half hours answering questions from the stage. He just did Glenn Diesson was there. Glenn just asked him
a question. Um, but uh, you know, Putin, from what I've been able to pick up,
just you know, the tidbits here and there, Putin's being very straightforward about, look, we don't
want to fight with anybody. We'd like to get along with everybody, but we're not
fools. We recognize the hostility and these and these provocative actions that
others that Europe is taking place. Um, and we will respond accordingly. And
nobody should dare underestimate our resolve, but uh he did, you know, he's
not turning fire on Donald Trump. You know, he I saw the one quot he said
something to the effect, yeah, Trump can be a little emotional, you know, but you know, you talk to him
in private, he's not so bad. Uh which actually is is the is the case from what
I've heard. But um you know Putin is not showing the signs of a guy under stress.
He is showing the signs of we know what we're doing. We know what we're going to accomplish and we're trying we'd like to
do it diplomatically, but if it's not done diplomatically, it's going to be done militarily.
And Danny, another thing about that Quanico meeting that just blows my mind
away. I mean, it really does. You got Higg, Seth, and Trump insinuating, if not directly, saying
that the rest of the world's evil and vile. Not just Chicago, not just, you
know, Portland or whatever. That's their latest bent. But they've been saying that about the rest of the world. I got
news for them. The rest of the world, or at least twothirds of it, thinks we're
the violess. We're the evil. We're the power in the world that's detrimental to
everyone else's future. They better get that in their heads and
do something about it or we're toast. Larry, you know, there's also the fact
that Europe Ursula Vanderlayion and the rest of the EU, they've committed what
is it about 4 billion euros or something to the effect for a drone wall for
Ukraine. uh Silinski is requesting uh the uh gamecher
Tomahawk missiles. I even is this is there a capability for
NATO in the United States now that it's okay these long-range strikes to prolong
this conflict to the point where it does lead into a kind of forever war which is
unpredict I guess uh since none of us have crystal ball um could uh end up
badly for Russia or is this all this a miscalculation? Now the the the forever wars you know
that Europe does not have the economic depth nor does the United States to
sustain such a thing and Ukraine doesn't have the manpower. So I mean this really
this is ultimately about logistics. Um this will come to an end. uh in in in
the same way that you know the the terrorist war that the United States initiated against Russia back in 1999
with the Chetchins, you know, that lasted for 10 years. Russia, you know, they made some
mistakes along the way. uh they had some setbacks here and there, but they continued to march forward and and
accomplished the ultimate objective of turning Cheschnney actually into a
peaceful uh federal part of the Federal Republic of Russia. And now the the the
Muslim uh battalions and brigades coming out of there uh are some of the fiercest
fighters and the most patriotic of Russians. You know, this is the West,
particularly in the United States. We've never suffered the the kinds of loss
and and we've just never had the kind of suffering that Russia has experienced in
its history. And when you go back to the first year of of the war in the great patriotic war
when Germany launched Barbar Roa, you know, the the Russians lost in that
first year. I think it was like 3 to four million soldiers in just that year.
I mean, a scale of loss that in the United States would be unimaginable.
And yet instead of, you know, collapsing into a fetal position and crying on the
floor, Russia, you know, sucked it up and moved forward and beat the Germans
and, you know, the United States helped. But that was that was largely a victory by the then Soviets o o over Germany and
they were able to uh, you know, sustain and expand industrial production. uh
they they were able to uh you know grow grow enough food to feed themselves and
train enough soldiers to to fight the battle. I mean when all was said and done 27 million Russians was a horrific
price to pay. No country in the world lost more people. China was second in line to that. So that is part of the
Russian character. So if if Ben Wallace
stupidly believes, oh, if we blow up that Crimea bridge, the Kirch Bridge, boy, that's going to really crush the
Russians, just doesn't show that he does how ignorant the man is, and that he does
not understand the Russian soul, the Russian character. And compare that, Danny, to the fact
that we haven't seen a war in our front yard since 1865.
How do you think we would take that? How do you think we would stand up to that? Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, uh, you know, Colonel Wilkerson, uh, same kind of
question to you about the drone wall, the, you know, the,
uh, military, you know, militarization, the constant militarization of Europe and NATO, now the promise of Tomahawks,
uh, or at least the the request from Zalinski with, uh, a lot of, uh,
inconsistent messaging from the United States about what is going to happen from here. Uh, what do you make of all
of this? Well, all a drone wall is is a zofly zone with another name. Um, how
are they going to do this when their economies are collapsing? How are they going to do this when they can't even
remotely get close to 5%. I doubt if they can get remotely close to 4% of GDP
for defense. Their publics will throw them out. Their publics are going to throw them out. You got three dead men
walking right now and you're Mcronone Merz and Starmer. The governments are
going and many of the other governments will go too when they awaken to the fact that they've been drugged into a
situation, NATO alliance included, that is not in their interest. So NATO is
collapsing. The whole EU is collapsing in many respects through bad leadership,
through the autocracy that the EU really represents, and through just bad economic management across the board.
So, all Russia's got to do is sit on its uh hunches, literally, and keep plugging
away. And, you know, my great fear is that they'll get to some point where
they'll say, "Wow, this is ripe for the picking. I don't think they will because I think Larry's
right and others who feel the same way. Russia has no desire for extra territory. What it's concerned with is
security of its existing territory. And we threatened that security multiple
times through deceit, through perity, for absolute lying outright from 2014
on. And they don't trust us anymore. And they're going to ensure that that is not
the case when they finish this. They're going to feel safe again,
you know. And there there was this uh people are circulating this article uh I
don't know if you've seen it in the Financial Times. Russian missile upgrade up outpaces Ukraine's Patriot defenses.
This is in the Financial Times. Kiev's interception rates fall as enemy strikes dodge US interceptors in the final
seconds. Larry, could you talk about what this means? They cite the Kinjao missile, but I know that Russia's
arsenal is quite diverse and there's a variety of missiles that it has varying
speeds from hypersonic to lower than this. But what's your uh uh what how how
could you help explain what they are talking about here when it comes to this problem? It's not even just the Patriot
systems not being numerous enough. It's that they they can't intercept what
Russia has with whatever Ukraine is able to muster when it comes to patriots.
Yeah, this is the Financial Times captain obvious moment. Yeah, thanks for telling you what we've known
for three years. Look, the the Russians in contrast to
the United States, the United States has yet to field a single operational
hypersonic missile. And that's a missile that travels above the speed of Mach 6
and is maneuverable. It because you know there are are intercontinental ballistic missiles.
They go in excess of Mach 6, but they're you know you launch it's like I shot an arrow in the air and where it fell I
know not where it follows it follows a gravitational path. Whereas this the
hypersonic missiles that Russia has at least four um variants you know from the Kinsaw the
Iskander I forget the name of the other and then there's the Arashnik at least four United States doesn't have
one and you know so Russia's perfected over uh over the years they finally
realized they can send in t you know drones which are decoys and you know the
problem for the uh Ukrainians was they don't know how if that decoy is real or not or if it's actually carrying a
warhead. So they fire off their air defense missiles and at some point by
the particular the Patriot missile batteries the Loheed Martin only produces 550 missiles a year. Okay,
and that's missile not launcher. They produce far far fewer launchers.
Well, we just had an attack last uh was it last, you know, was it Monday that
was described as the largest missile drone attack since the start of the war?
And yet we heard the same thing said, you know, about a week and a half earlier and then the same thing was said
a week and a half before that. So, you know, Russia on average is firing about
every week almost a barrage upwards of 600, 700, 800 combination missiles and
drones. So, if you figure that Kiev is going to try to, you know, they're going to try to shoot down just half of that.
So, they're they're going to launch their Patriot missiles and that means they're going to need to launch two missiles per 400 targets. Do the math.
Two times 400, that's 800. right there. That's almost two years of Loheed Martin production.
So, like I said, Financial Times has finally learned how to do math. You know, Ukraine, Ukraine is caught in
a situation where the the West, the United States, and the Europe cannot
make uh missile defense systems and the actual missiles fast enough to replace
what's being fired against missiles that uh Russia is well capable of making far
faster than any than the United States and Europe combined.
Yeah. and and Colonel Wilkerson, your comments. Uh we were talking before the show about the the Tomahawk missiles. Uh
how do they compare with uh Russia's arsenal? Uh given that uh there have
been I know we've covered on the show of conversations about the ent you know the United States's military arsenal in
general just being very old in a sense uh in terms of the production um the way that production happens uh in the United
States and its reliance on contractors etc. But how do the tomahawks compare then to
old technology? We took delivery of tomahawks in 1984 in Pacific Command.
And immediately our our commander-in-chief, who would later be Reagan's uh chairman, Admiral Bill Cra
said, "I need the D. I need the D. I don't want this C bel version because my
war plan uh attacks me with not only defending Japan but also getting the
attention of the Russians on the Western Front should they attack in Europe. And I'm not going to get their attention
with this little pin prick weapon you've given me. I need the D. The D was the nuclear varant. That'll tell you
something about the tomahawk when it first came out. It's even with the upgrades, even with what we've done to
it, it's still very very it's much more costly than it was in those early 80s. And it's still very slow and it's easy
to shoot down. So, I mean, I wouldn't, if I were Russia, I wouldn't look at the tomahawk as a threat in any way,
fashion, or form other than a pin prick wherever it might hit. And if it should hit something that that pin prick is
going to major damage to, well, okay, that's damage. But it's not a wars
stopper and it's not a war changer. Yeah.
And unless they've extended the range, if I remember right from PCOM, it was about a 585 nautical mile missile. So
it's not that extraordinary long range either. And it's slow compared to a Rashnik. It's very slow.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Um uh I wanted to I have one more uh
segment to cover. Uh Larry, I know that you have to go in about nine minutes. Uh Colonel Wilkerson, could you say we can
begin with you, Larry, and then I got I'm on my time right now. So,
all right. All right. Well, let me just uh let's briefly then comment on this while I still have you guys. Um, you
know, uh, Vladimir Putin, he did respond to the paper tiger, uh, comment, uh,
that Trump made, uh, which many saw as a 180 by Donald Trump. I don't know if we
look at Trump's policy on Ukraine. I don't know if we could call anything a full 180, but this is what Vladimir
Putin had to say about Russia being called a paper tiger.
But we are Oh, sorry. I thought there was English subtitles so I will read it. Uh so if we are fighting the entire NATO
block um and are moving forward like this advancing feeling confident
um and that means we are a paper tiger then what is NATO itself? So you know a
pretty damning response Larry what's your uh what's your reaction to
this? Well, this is, you know, I put it in the same category as whether you're listening to Ben Hodes, David Petraeus,
Mark Kemik, you know, all former generals, all um I think all were part
Well, Petraeus never headed Yukon, but but they've always made fun of how
little progress the Russians have made. Yet, these are the very guys that failed to uh conquer Iraq in 14 years and
conquer Afghanistan in 20 years. So, it's like they got no room to talk.
I I think I think Putin's response was exactly spot on.
Yeah. Yeah. Colonel Wilkerson, that would me I feel the same way.
If I hear Kellogg say one more time what his litany is, I'll probably get sick.
Yeah. Right. And then there's this development uh
that's been uh going on now for a bit. But uh there is there is going to be the
archnik um and president Lucenko, Alexander Lucenko of Belarus who said
any minute now the archnik is coming for to Barus. And I I guess I'm curious
about your uh reactions to this given that uh if these long range strikes
occur the first time that they occurred under the Biden administration, Russia did launch an arrnic. Um it did it did
test out the arric and it did hit Ukraine. Um, do you see that if any of
these threats are are made good by Ukraine, if it begins to use US intel
again for these long range so-called long-range strikes, medium-range strikes, that Russia will uh use the
Arashnik weapon again to send the same kind of message? Oh, yeah. No, I think so. But I mean
they've been very clear both lav roof and Putin essentially said that if the west
allows these attacks to go forward and Putin's been quite descriptive saying look they can't do it without US
personnel actually providing uh key key information and operational uh
involvement. So it it's going to be considered an he said an act of war. So
you know they won't just limit themselves to a rushnik. uh they're trying to avoid it, but if if
the West keeps pressing, uh this thing can get out of hand very quickly. Just as the start of World War I starts with
an assassination, and man, next thing you know, you got the whole world fighting on two fronts.
Yeah, Colonel Wilkerson, your thoughts? Woodenheadedness.
Yeah, I agree. I agree 100%. I I think Putin has been more than circumspect.
I'm not sure that I could have restrained myself the way he has restrained himself with regard to
striking what is clearly NATO support of Ukraine in Poland and other places. By
the way, I heard this morning that uh there were some things happening in Poland that might be very very positive.
One of which is uh the new president introduced legislation to declare the I
think it was the Azoff types or the Azoff battalion whatever as anathema to
Poland. Mhm. Yeah. Right. And Poland was just subject to
that uh false flag which has gone quiet. the whole drone false flag, all that's
come out of that, Laren Colonel workers and is more promises of money for more
drones themselves. Yeah. Um maybe we can close here with your final assessment on the situation
in Ukraine from both of you because uh where it is now given that uh the Trump
administration the diplomacy side of the USRussia um uh talks and all of that seem to have
frozen for the time being and the US side keeps talking escalation whether
it's Keith Kellogg's cornflakes as some people call them constantly talk about gamechanging tomahawks And uh you have
NATO uh looking for permanent war it seems like with Russia. And you have
Russia continuing its advance. Actually it seems like every other day there's another report about its uh strikes on
Kiev for example being bigger than the last. Uh we can start with you Larry and then Colonel Wilkerson.
Yeah. Yeah. Because I've only got about a minute left. No, it's very simple. It's April 1945 Berlin. That's Ukraine
situation. Colonel Wilkerson. Ditto.
They don't I will say Yeah. Go ahead. I'm sorry. I was say there's no escape. There's no
path path to victory. Yeah. I I was just going to say that who
knows what Donald Trump is going to say. Fortunately, it doesn't accompany itself
with action lots of times, but who knows what he's going to say. I mean, on Monday, he's saying one thing about
Ukraine. On Tuesday, he's saying another thing. And on Wednesday, he's converting everything to the Western Hemisphere.
And on Thursday, he's converting it to the Western Hemisphere so he can fight Democrats in our cities with the
military. Right. Yep. Yep. It is certainly an empire of
chaos as our friend Pepe Escobar calls it. Uh gentlemen, thanks so much for joining me. I just want to point to the
