U.S. Running Out of Ways to End Iran War (Daniel Davis)

Professor Marandi appearing on the Daniel Davis channel.

The headline for this video is correct. The problem is that the US and Israelis are not prepared to accept terms offered by Iran. The Israelis will not stop attacking Lebanon or Gaza and the US wants control of the Strait of Hormuz.

Marandi points out that it's been the US-Israeli side that have broken negotiated agreements to stop the fighting multiple times. No deals can therefore be made with the US regarding Iran where the only way the situation will be resolved is if the US actually physically withdraws from the region.

With no other choice Iran is going on the offensive to target the US in the region, hitting their economic assets, and also their allies. Marandi points out that Iran doesn't need to strike tankers coming through the Strait to stop oil shipments but can directly hit oil installations. So far they have held off doing so (to prevent a global economic calamity), but will strike if they are attacked in a similar fashion.   

The war between Yemen and Saudi Arabia is another front in this conflict. Already some oil infrastructure has been hit by the Yemenis - and if things continue, the Gulf States will no longer be viable in their present forms. Oil prices on the open market are heading toward 150 dollars per barrel and will go much higher if this continues, with money going to other producers, and none to the Gulf region.

Whichever way you look at the situation the end result seems to be a loss for the US, the Gulf States and probably Israel (that has guaranteed US economic support in any event).

Russia Begins To Isolate Kiev. Elites Rattled as Rail Link Hit (The Duran)

Trump publicly blames Zelensky for the diesel price shortage even though he personally authorized the strikes on Russian oil refineries that caused it. In this episode we break down how the failed Ukrainian drone offensive, Eric Schmidt's grim admission that Kiev is losing the war, and new Russian strikes on the Kiev to Poland rail line all point toward Russia tightening its grip on the Ukrainian capital much like it did in Odessa. Is Washington preparing to abandon Kiev, or will the pressure for escalation from Sikorski, Rutte and Schmidt win out?

Merz Failed Platform of War and Deindustrialization (The Duran)

Germany is in political turmoil as the AfD surges to record highs following the Saxony Anhalt election, leaving Chancellor Friedrich Merz and his CDU government reeling. In this episode we break down why Merz looks like a dead man walking, how his disastrous Bundestag clash with Alice Weidel exposed the CDU's weakness, and why Brussels may punish German voters the same way it targeted Hungary and Poland. Is Germany's political establishment about to lose control entirely?



The Duran looking at politics in Germany. One of the key things they point out is that deindustrialisation for many Germany people is seen as a disgrace. This is what globalisation has brought. The end of the clip is excellent, where Alexander urges a future AfD Government to move instantly, to restore the Deutsche Mark, talk to Putin on day one, restore gas supplies to lower energy costs, and likely begin the process of mass deportations (the unnamed polices he refers to) - all before the EU can organise to stop it.
On top of this, Merz is a dangerous globalist clown. The only benefit is that he is encouraging ordinary Germans to vote for the AfD. 

Note: It's important that Europe sorts itself out now before countries become balkanised and civil war breaks out. Signs of this are already apparent. It's up to voters to change things, by voting for nationalist parties, before the situation really slides out of hand.

Putin Warns Russia And Europe At War If Europe Troops Enter Ukraine; Big Houthi Victory; BRICS Meets (Alexander Mercouris)

Putin has just delivered his bluntest warning yet, telling Europe that sending troops into Ukraine means direct conflict with Russia, a message he chose to deliver from the BRICS summit stage in New Delhi alongside Modi and Xi Jinping. Alexander breaks down why Putin timed this warning now, how a stunning Houthi battlefield surge in Yemen has forced Saudi Arabia to shut down a critical oil pipeline, and why Donald Trump has twice turned away a desperate Mohammed bin Salman.

Houthis Seize More Territory as War Turns Against America /Patrick Henningsen (Daniel Davis)

Excellent must see interview with Henningsen who explains the context for the war with Yemen, that the Houthis only attacked after the truce was broken, and that the Saudi mercenaries have been poorly treated and are not prepared to fight against a determined opposition. Plus the US can no longer occupy, or set up, bases in the region because they're easily targeted. The existing ones are largely destroyed. They basically lost already while causing oil prices to skyrocket due to their failure to fully back off. Iran won't back down until the MOU demands are met.

Best comments on You Tube:

@Lucy-s2q3i
US military are mercenaries for Israel. For billionnaires. Our gov is for rich. Bribed. Not for Americans.

@Enonimus9999
The CIA and Mossad ISIS goons currently control Syria, and those Nazis want the same for the entire Arab and Muslim world. But thanks to the Yemeni, Iranian, Russian and the CCP resistance, it will not happened.

Diesel Crisis Worsens as Houthis Tighten Grip on al-Mandeb Strait (The Duran)

Diesel and gasoline prices are hitting historic highs as Donald Trump finally admits the United States is at war with Iran, a war he now says will not end until after the midterms. In this episode we break down how a spiraling energy crisis, a resurgent Houthi offensive against Saudi Arabia, and Scott Bessent's plan to use the energy shock against China could collide into a genuine economic storm for the West. Is Washington sleepwalking into a crisis it cannot control?

Yemeni Forces Take KEY Red Sea PORT CITY as Saudi-Backed Mercenaries FLEE (Rachel Blevins)

The Yemeni Armed Forces are on the move, taking control of the strategic Red Sea port city of Mokha, in a shocking offensive that sent Saudi-backed mercenaries fleeing. Now, not only does Ansar Allah have increased control over the Bab El-Mandeb Strait and Yemen’s western coast, but they are not stopping there…



The clip also covers the situation in Ukraine, where there are no longer any interceptor missiles able to shoot down drones or ballistic missiles fired by Russia. As a whole, the Middle Eastern States lack air defence missiles to protect against Iranian attack - the same as we see in Ukraine.

Putin's Advice to Trump; Ratcliffe's Ukraine Power Grab (The Duran)

Ukraine's military and financial collapse is accelerating as Russian forces bomb Black Sea ports and logistics hubs while Kiev runs low on fuel and cash. In this episode we break down Putin's blunt advice to Trump to simply stop helping Ukraine, the CIA's Ratcliffe pushing to replace Witkoff and Kushner as chief negotiator, and the New York Times and Spectator reports admitting Ukraine is losing the war. With Zelensky flying to the UN chasing more money instead of missiles, how much longer can this go on?

Peter Schiff: Economic Armageddon - Bonds & Dollar in Crisis (Glenn Deisen)

Peter Schiff is the CEO of Euro Pacific Asset Management and the host of the Peter Schiff Show.



A few observations: Schiff is probably wrong about US tariffs. He talked about investing overseas in regions that were producing things, and seems to think it's okay that the US has outsourced a massive amount of their own productive capacity. Furthermore, sanctions on Russia helped their domestic industries. Of course prices for goods will rise in the short term under a tariff regime, but longer term protectionism protects local production. Schiff comes across as having TDS despite the fact one can fairly criticise a lot of what the President is doing during his second term. 

Also, causing an economic crisis might actually be the plan. Losing the wars in the Middle East and against Russia might be an objective for Trump. He wanted to wind back US overseas commitments and the they tried to kill him. Although Trump is old he does actually understand second and third order consequences. It's how he operated previously. It's possible he is still using this strategy, giving the Deep State and Israel everything they want, and more, that's leading to disaster.

Scary Osama bin Laden 911 2007 video (Evenoffend)

This is some dude making his own 'convincing' Bin Laden (fake) video after those 2004 threat videos were released featuring a highly questionable OBL. Before this time other fake Bin Laden audio messages had been released that were disputed by independent experts.

The question is why make fakes if the real person was still alive? And this video was put out long before the rise of AI. The presentation simply demonstrates that poor quality videos could be passed off as the real thing. 

There were actually death notices for Bin Laden in December 2001. He reported died in the mountains of Afghanistan where his personal bodyguards were captured. 

The later 2011 Bin Laden raid story is an obvious hoax with no pictures, further faked images circulated online, and his body was thrown overboard from an aircraft carrier?! Eyewitnesses to the raid reported that the only helicopter to land at the compound crashed on take off - the tail rotor was photographed and published in newspapers worldwide:

Obama's SEAL Team 6 Coverup - Explosive Paul Craig Roberts Interview (XRepublicTV)


The reason they kept this fakery going for so long was to scare people during US election cycles and to justify the invasion of Iraq. Check out this short clip proving that the US faked footage about the 2011 raid. The ears do not match:

Wesley Clark to Fox News Bimbo We use radical Islamists for ..

General Clark pointing out that Al Qaeda would not exist without the support of nation states and that extremists are used as tools when it comes to attacking other countries. This is from 10 years ago, so he's talking about what was going on in Syria and Iraq at the time, and likely Libya. Also, the Fox host is not a bimbo, she was trying to steer Clark away from talking about US involvement in what was happening - using extremists for regime change operations.

Douglas Macgregor: U.S. Defeated in Iran & Israel Will Not Survive (Glenn Deisen)

Douglas Macgregor is a retired Colonel, combat veteran, and former senior advisor to the U.S. Secretary of Defense.



Excellent assessment from Macgregor. The title for this clip does not tell the whole story. Macgregor sees the war against Iran as a no win situation, with the US, that is under the influence of the Israelis, withdrawing from Central Asia, following on from the British Empire, and that the war in Ukraine is now finally on its last legs. Economic disaster is on the way too. He thinks there will be (political) revolution in the West against the globalists, and there are already signs of this happening. People on the street can see the truth directly, and also via the alternative media, and are acting accordingly. The main thing to consider, in terms of creating a better future, is that truth and transparency is essential. Thankfully we are already on this path.

Piers JUST FOUND OUT Israel Had Advance Warning About Oct. 7th! (Jimmy Dore)

In this segment Jimmy discusses a new report that UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed warned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu roughly 10 days before October 7, 2023, that Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar was planning a major operation that could destabilize the region. The report, published by Haaretz and based on reporting by Israeli journalists Shlomi Eldar and Ruth Yuval, says the warning came during a reported 45-minute phone call, while Netanyahu's office has strongly denied that the call or warning occurred and the UAE has declined to confirm or deny the specific conversation.

Jimmy connects the report to earlier reporting that Israeli officials had obtained Hamas's attack plan before October 7 and to broader questions about intelligence failures, while he mocks late-to-the-party Piers Morgan for being shocked and outraged by these reports. The segment concludes with Jimmy discussing an upcoming appearance on Morgan's program to debate skepticism of the official 9/11 narrative.



There were plenty of warnings from a number of different sources, highlighted in the clip. Dore also reminds viewers that Netanyahu was recently shown to have funded HAMAS. The point is that sections of the Israeli leadership are willing to sacrifice their own civilians in order to kick off fighting so they can eradicate their enemies.

Russia BOMBARDS Kiev with MAJOR STRIKES + NEW Geran Drones SHOCK the West | Mark Sleboda (Rachel Blevins)

After a brief pause to entertain Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff (Trump’s sorry excuse for diplomats) over the weekend, Russia has returned to carrying out major strikes on Kiev. The Russian Defense Ministry confirmed strikes on defense-industrial facilities and transport-logistics hubs in Kiev and the surrounding region on Monday night.

International Relations and Security Analyst Mark Sleboda noted Russia is using both ballistic and cruise missiles, but it’s also utilizing advanced Geran drones with jet-powered engines that appear to be under manual control, as they “loiter around Kiev until they decide which target they’re going to hit.”

To say that the latest Russian military advancements are driving the West crazy would be an understatement.



The interview also takes a brief look at the escalating war between Yemen and Saudi Arabia. This second conflict zone is pushing the world towards an economic disaster as Gulf State oil supplies are cut off.
