Wilkerson gives a blunt assessment of the war, warning that both the United States and Israel are not in a good military position because of Iran’s smart tactics and growing military capabilities, including technologies developed with support from Russia and China.He also discusses the consequences of the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, which is sending global oil prices soaring and threatening energy security in Europe.In this interview we ask:• What is the current military balance between Iran, Israel, and the United States?• Could Turkey be drawn into the conflict after reports of missile interceptions?• Is Israel trying to trigger a wider war that could pull NATO into the conflict?• How will Europe deal with the energy crisis if it refuses rapprochement with Russia?• Are there plans in Washington to destabilize Iran using insurgent groups similar to past wars in Syria and Iraq?• What could the future relationship between Arab states and Iran look like after this war?Wilkerson argues that Iran can afford to take a long strategic view, while the United States lacks a coherent long-term strategy. He warns that a full invasion of Iran would be catastrophic and could severely weaken U.S. global power.This interview examines the risk of regional escalation, the global oil shock, NATO dynamics, and the shifting balance of power in West Asia.Topics CoveredUS-Iran warIsrael-Iran conflictStrait of Hormuz crisisTurkey and NATO escalationMiddle East geopoliticsGlobal oil pricesUS foreign policy🔴🔴🔴Follow us on Substack: https://substack.com/@indiagloballeftTwitter: https://twitter.com/Indiagloballeft Instagram https://www.instagram.com/indiagloballeft/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61559411353392Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/69Y9iCWUv8ha3ATsPWtWk0?si=ee1f0de3de094f17Telegram: https://t.me/+WNlqoiv1Rhg5NjEx🔴🔴🔴
