## Resource

This interview dives deep into the escalating US-Iran conflict and the severe limitations of current US foreign policy. We explore how coercive threats and regime change strategies are backfiring, as Iranian public opinion remains firmly united against external pressure. The discussion highlights critical military, economic, and political hard limits facing the US, including munitions shortages, rising energy costs, and vulnerable regional allies. With Israel hesitant to engage and global powers bypassing US sanctions, the weaponization of the dollar is accelerating the push for alternative financial systems. Discover why escalating this conflict risks imperial overstretch and economic disaster. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
