Summary

Almost 3 weeks in. The objectives have changed six times. No allies are sending ships. The Arab states are furious. Iran says they never asked for a ceasefire. And the president said on camera, that maybe we shouldn't be there at all. In this episode, I walk through: — The six shifting justifications for the war — What Iran is actually saying vs. what Trump claims — Why no country will send warships to the Strait of Hormuz — Why the Arab states are getting bombed and who they blame — Every realistic offramp — and why none of them are easy Brave The New World — See the pattern. Know the playbook. Take action.
