HIDE THE DAMAGE, ESCALATE THE WAR /Col Doug Macgregor (Daniel Davis)

Lying about the state of affairs, when it comes to US wars, is normal. It's more of the same. But as things stand, it's obvious that the US has lost the conflict against Iran. 

Macgregor predicts that the US will launch a new strike against the Iranians that tries to hit their deep underground bunkers and punish the civilian population. Iran will obviously retaliate and the result will be an economic calamity as they knock out power and oil infrastructure in the region. He worries that the Israelis will eventually employ nuclear weapons to take out their main Middle Eastern rival. 

If Iran is not taken out then expect the demise of the Gulf State countries and the withdrawal of US forces. Will Turkey, Egypt or Pakistan intervene to protect Islamic holy sites if Saudi Arabia collapses?

When it comes to the war in Ukraine, it's likely that the Russians will continue their grinding operation and wait as Europe implodes under mass migration, rioting, and also economic collapse. In the end the globalists have doomed themselves. They expect to be able to manage the situation but things will almost certainly spiral out of control.

Russia FINALLY Takes the GLOVES OFF: Proof Putin is LISTENING to His People | Col. Doug Macgregor (Rachel Blevins)

Russia is ramping up strikes across Ukraine, as the U.S. is preparing for another round of war against Iran. President Trump can’t seem to make up his mind as to who he should blame for the soaring energy costs Americans are beginning to face, as he tries to use one losing conflict to distract from another.

Ret. U.S. Army Col. Douglas Macgregor noted that Russia’s recent escalation in strikes is proof President Putin is listening to the Russian people, as frustration builds over Kiev’s attempted drone attacks. He also said it’s “obvious” the U.S. is preparing for more war against Iran, and the threat of Israel using nuclear weapons is still on the table.



Macgregor points out that there is no realistic plan to take out Russia or to win against Iran, and that attacking them is folly - that Trump has little idea when it comes to these matters. He says it's a repeat of past military interventions. He suspects that the only reason these wars have gone ahead is due to Israeli influence. 

The ultimate goal for the Iranians is to have the US expelled from the Middle East, and that the war of attrition in Ukraine is on its last legs. Russia has no choice now but to take over all of Ukraine and to annex the southern region.     

The video also covers the up coming firing squad execution of an Islamist US military officer who killed 13 service personnel in 2009. Macgregor argues that firing squads have traditionally been reserved for infractions in which a level of honour is still on the table, and that the appropriate method here should be hanging.

Russia HAMMERS Kiev with Jet-Powered GERAN Drones: Bridge Strikes JUST the Beginning | Mark Sleboda (Rachel Blevins)

Russia is unleashing a new phase of war on Ukraine, as its jet-powered Geran-4 and -5 drones are used in strikes across Kiev, including in hits on the North and South bridges over the Dnieper River.

International Relations and Security Analyst Mark Sleboda noted that NATO wanted to “bring the war home” to Moscow… and now Russia is the one bringing the war home to Kiev. He pointed out that the expanded strikes come as Ukraine continues to look for new ways to put pressure on Russia, and the Russians make it clear that they can apply far greater pressure in return.

Seyed M. Marandi: If Saudi Arabia Collapses, the Entire Region Will Transform (Glenn Diesen)

Prof. Seyed Mohammad Marandi is a professor at Tehran University and a former advisor to Iran's nuclear negotiation team.



Marandi points out that Saudi Arabia, under the rule of MBS, who acts like a tyrant, has steered itself into disaster. Any Saudi attacks on Yemen will likely receive retaliation from Iran also. They're headed off a cliff. 

The interview goes on to cover the US being kicked out of Iran friendly Iraq and the extremist rule in Syria. The bottom line is that the Gulf State countries are fragile and that further conflict may result in their demise. All roads lead to an economic calamity.

Saudis Fighting ISRAEL’S WAR in Yemen: Ansar Allah Hits Back with NO-FLY ZONE | Robert Inlakesh (Rachel Blevins)

Ansar Allah has declared a “No-Fly Zone” over Saudi Arabia, as the Kingdom announced the start of a new operation involving 100 fighter jets, targeting the Yemeni Armed Forces along the Red Sea coastline.

Independent Journalist Robert Inlakesh noted that not only is Saudi Arabia fighting “ISRAEL’S WAR” for them, but they appear to be fighting “to the last drop of oil,” as the economic consequences of the U.S. war of aggression against Iran continue to mount.

A reminder that while the Axis of Resistence continues to fight back, the future looks increasingly bleak for the U.S. and Israel’s vassals in the Persian Gulf...

Kiev Bridges Knocked Out; Russia To Intensify Strikes; Alarmed Zelensky Threats; Merz Rushes To Kiev (Alexander Mercouris)

Russia's Defence Ministry has announced that strikes on Kiev will intensify, and Alexander explains why the Dnieper bridges now sit closed to heavy traffic with no tunnels to replace them. He traces the campaign to a multi year Russian build up in Geran drone technology overseen by Dmitry Medvedev, then turns to Peskov's pledge to fight with full force and Putin's visible irritation at Modi's proposal to freeze the conflict. With Merz leaving Kiev empty handed, does anyone in the West have a plan for what comes next?

Who Controls Hormuz? (The Duran)

Washington believes it has taken control of the Strait of Hormuz, but in this episode we argue the oil is only flowing because Iran is allowing it. Alexander explains how China, Russia and the BRICS states quietly pushed Tehran to let tankers through, and why the Trump administration is reading that as Iranian weakness ahead of possible new strikes around the midterms.

Putin's Dark Valdai Speech; Kaliningrad Warning; Khrushchev Playbook Returns (The Duran)

Putin just delivered his most sobering Valdai speech yet, and in this episode break down why he believes the world is closer to a general conflict than at any time since 1945. From the Kaliningrad warning sent to every Western government and the CIA report claiming Russia's economy will collapse, to the choice between Putin's China and BRICS multipolar strategy and Medvedev's harder Khrushchev style line, the message from Moscow is that good relations with the collective West are finished.

Can the U.S. Afford to Annihilate Iran? /Seyed M. Marandi (Daniel Davis)

Russia Pounds Kyiv as US Pushes Peace Talks /Patrick Henningsen (Daniel Davis)

Russia keeps rejecting ceasefires because they're a scam so Ukraine can rearm for more fighting in the future. The key point with the recent Russian strikes vs Kiev is that they came after Ukraine repeatedly tried to hit Moscow and damage their energy system. How much longer can Ukraine hang on in this war of attrition? Henningsen does a good job outlining key aspects of the conflict.  Currently the US is making a LOT of money exporting energy products to Europe. A peace deal would put an end to this money making scam.

Iran Demands US Admit Defeat, 23 years Over in Iraq /Col Doug Macgregor (Daniel Davis)

Iran was cooperative when the US invaded Iraq. They kept out of the fighting but were smeared by the Bush neocons who failed to launch a war against them back in 2007-8. Macgregor points out that privately Trump wanted to withdraw from the region during his first term, but has now been 'swayed' to follow Israeli demands. As a result the US is facing defeat at the hands of Iran where all Iran has to do is hold on to the Strait of Hormuz. 

The Iranian demands are for the US to withdraw from the region, and for the Israelis to back down in Gaza and against Lebanon.

Much of the video has Macgregor explaining the history of the wars fought by the US against Iraq and the stupid and destructive policies put out that failed to reshape the region. The conflict was mostly about serving Israeli interests since the neocons were driving the policy, and produced the WMD lies.  

If the US removes itself from the Middle East Macgregor thinks that Iran and Turkey will assert their influence over their neighbours, as they have done historically. He points out that US interventions around the world cannot solve regional problem that need to be dealt with locally.

Russia Attacks Ukraine Energy System Hits Key Substation Power Plants; Massive Blackouts; Dobropilia (Alexander Mercouris)

Russia has struck the Kyivska electrical substation, the critical hinge joining Ukraine's western and eastern power grids, alongside the Tripilska thermal plant and a Kiev hydro station, triggering blackouts from Kiev all the way to the Donbass. Alexander explains why Russia spent years probing this target, how a global transformer shortage leaves Ukraine unable to repair it, and why Moscow's real aim is to hollow out Kiev rather than topple its government, while Dobropillia resistance collapses and Biletsky's Operation Vivaldi stalls before the rasputitsa. Is this the opening of the decisive campaign Russia has been preparing since October 2022?

COL. Douglas Macgregor : America’s Toxic Military Culture (Judging Freedom)

Macgregor points out that a complete military victory is the only option for Russia in Ukraine. The mainstream media and politicians have said that Russia is on its last legs and yet all of Europe allegedly needs to prepare for war. They are talking out of both sides of their mouth at once. The reality is that Ukraine has lost and suffered massive casualties.

While the US has spent trillions on its military over recent years it's now unprepared to fight a modern war against drones and ballistic missiles having failed to implement the lessons learned in the ongoing conflicts. Macgregor points out that when the economic calamity arrives much of the US Navy will be sitting in port, and that the focus should then be on domestic affairs, not international.

The key thing about the war against Iran, and the pending global economic disaster, is that it's a function of Israeli control over both President Trump and the US Congress. The Congress could put an end to it, but they won't. The Democrats only pretend to be somewhat in opposition but continue to provide enough support to allow continued fighting. There's no successful US-Israeli outcome in this situation, only a road towards disaster.

EXPOSED! LBJ Was Behind Coverup Of Israeli Attack On USS Liberty! w/ Larry Bowen (Jimmy Dore)

In this segment Jimmy speaks with Larry Bowen, president of the USS Liberty Veterans Association, who details the June 8, 1967 attack on the USS Liberty and the survivors’ longstanding claims that Israel deliberately attacked a ship it knew was American. Bowen disputes the official mistaken-identity explanation, describes reconnaissance flights, the attack and casualties, and says survivors were threatened if they publicly discussed the incident or their awards, while Jimmy brings up later allegations of a government cover-up and disputed evidence concerning Israeli knowledge of the ship’s identity.

The conversation then focuses on efforts to obtain a congressional investigation and public recognition for the 34 Americans killed, including a 2026 House resolution associated with Rep. Thomas Massie, while Bowen argues that political considerations and pro-Israel lobbying have hindered further investigation. The segment concludes with Bowen urging viewers to contact Congress and visit the USS Liberty Veterans Association website, while the two broaden the discussion to U.S.-Israel relations and their own views about government accountability.



The Israelis have been conducting false flag attacks for many decades. Their globalist supporters also want open borders for Western nations. They are no friends of Western nations. The truth must come out and be aired widely for this corruption to stop. 

Additional comment from social media:

Excellent interview. The ugly truth is that the corrupt Israeli, and also US, Government has no problem killing their allies, or even their own people, if it serves their interests (when it comes to war). They'll kill military personnel and civilians to get what they want. At the same time the connected globalists have no problem flooding Western countries with refugees from these conflicts, or even economic migrants, because they see Western people, as a whole, as a threat to their agenda. Look at all the protesting and activism vs the wars in the West vs almost no concern shown on the streets in other countries. The way out of this mess is to expose the criminality and then vote for nationalist/isolationist Governments in the West. The current crop of left leaning globalists in power only really pretend to show concern, but they're Epstein class puppets and don't actually do anything to protect their own citizens, or take a stand against what's been going on.

Douglas Macgregor: Israel vs Turkey and Qatar: New US War Strategy? (Glenn Diesen)

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



The US is still demanding the complete capitulation of Iran, which means that a peace deal will not be possible. Iran can still destroy all land based US forces in the region through ballistic missile and drone attack. This means that the US cannot prevail in this region militarily.

The Israelis are now correctly seen by everyone as wanting to eradicate their neighbours. Countries with which they had relatively good relations must now see them as a serious threat, namely the Gulf States and Turkey.   

Macgregor further reports that the US is seriously planning an invasion of Cuba. 

Looming over all of the wars is an economic calamity brought about by a corrupt financial system that burdened the world with mountains of debt. Things are unravelling due to the rising oil price and actual fuel shortages.

Macgregor believes there will be a rebellion by the people of the West against their globalist masters as things get worse.
