That’s better. I also learned one simple trick…
I agree with some of what he said, but not other parts.
Specifically in Syria. While they might not want to fight, we do.
We have wanted to take out Assad for some time now.
Then, Iran might get involved/be next.
Things spiral fast, especially with so many pieces involved.
Gen Z has this, don’t worry.
Yep. He doesn’t even mention, Turkey which is odd as they have the most formidable military in the region. I’ve followed Zeihan on Russia/China since I read his latest book, which is pretty good, but the ME isn’t his sweet spot, IMO. I’ve been steadfast since day 1 that we are there for Assad’s ass, which I think we’ll get one way or another. He does not think it pops off in a larger war, I think it’s more likely it does than not. Zeihan sometimes fails to calculate the power of the religiously insane to make poor decisions. Anyway, threw this vid out there because most commentary is how it all escalates, not how it does not.
