  • Andrei Martyanov: Russia’s “Game Over” Strategy Is Now LIVE
    Analysis of escalating US-Israel-Iran tensions, with Israel pressuring Washington for military action despite US strategic limitations. Examines Iran's robust air defenses, missile capabilities, and readiness to fight—contrasted with America's depleted arsenal and inability to sustain large-scale operations. Discusses Russia-Iran military cooperation (SU-35s, Mi-28s), joint naval exercises with China, and the irreversible decline of Western industrial-military capacity. Highlights Russia's decisive edge in hypersonic weapons and strategic delivery systems after US abandonment of arms control treaties. Warns that any US attack on Iran would trigger catastrophic consequences, including potential Hormuz Strait closure. The West's geopolitical collapse accelerates as multipolar powers reshape global security architecture.

  • Richard D. Wolff & Michael Hudson: Is Trump Killing American Capitalism? The 2026 Economic Breakdown
    Trump's second-term economic policies backfire: dollar decline fails to boost exports (US mainly ships raw materials), manufacturing jobs drop 70,000 despite tariffs, and foreign investment flees to more stable economies like China. Tariffs on steel/aluminum ironically raise production costs, making US factories uncompetitive. As Western empires decline amid rising BRICS competition, elites respond not by taxing themselves but by cutting social welfare, escalating military spending, and using divisive rhetoric to fragment the working class—while preparing repressive capacity for coming social unrest over austerity. The interview exposes how "populist" rhetoric masks policies enriching the 1% amid capitalism's deepening crisis of inequality.

  • Alex Krainer: Iran Vows to Open The Gates Of Hell Going On ‘OFFENSIVE AIR DEFENSE’
    Analysis of escalating Middle East tensions following Trump-Netanyahu talks. Despite intense pressure from pro-Israel factions, evidence suggests Trump seeks to avoid war with Iran while negotiations continue. Israel faces growing regional isolation as Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and other powers strengthen ties with Tehran—Saudi Arabia recently pledged $800B in Iranian investments. American public sentiment is shifting sharply against unconditional Israel support due to Gaza's humanitarian crisis and Epstein revelations. The US confronts a strategic choice: back a isolated Israel or align with resource-rich regional powers representing over a billion people. Meanwhile, Europe's political establishment faces imminent collapse as unsustainable policies unravel. The coming months may determine whether diplomacy prevails or Israel—potentially acting alone—triggers a catastrophic regional conflict.

  • Matthew Hoh: Is Netanyahu Pushing the US Into War With Iran?
    Analysis of escalating US-Iran tensions and the likelihood of military conflict. Despite trillion-dollar defense spending, US military limitations reveal inability to simultaneously threaten multiple regions. Iranians show diminished fear of war after surviving Israel's 12-day assault. Experts argue the root issue isn't Iran's nuclear program but unresolved Palestine conflict—solution lies in Gaza, not Tehran. Discussion covers dangerous Israeli ambitions for regional dominance beyond mere deterrence, unrealistic regime change fantasies (Shah's son), weapons industry profiteering prolonging Ukraine war, and European leaders ignoring economic realities while pushing militarism. Warnings about long-term consequences: oil shocks, dollar devaluation, and accelerating global abandonment of US financial hegemony.

  • Stanislav Krapivnik: The Civilizational Battle Shaping the Future of the World
    Analysis of failed Ukraine peace talks: U.S. approach lacks diplomatic seriousness while Ukrainian elites profit from prolonging war. Russia won't relinquish territories and sees no middle ground until Kyiv's desperation forces surrender. Discussion of civilizational states—Russia's emerging identity built on traditional values, sovereignty, and non-interference versus the West's top-down liberal ideology. BRICS offers alternative model based on mutual respect and economic cooperation rather than regime change. Europe faces demographic collapse, unassimilated mass immigration, and elite detachment—heading toward inevitable internal conflict. The only sustainable civilizational idea respects national sovereignty: "We leave you alone internally; you leave us alone internally.

  • Scott Ritter: Trump in MAJOR Trouble — China & Russia Arm Iran With Deadly Weapons!
    Analysis of escalating Middle East tensions as Netanyahu pressures Washington for military action against Iran. Experts warn any US-led attack would trigger catastrophic regional war—with Iran likely destroying Israel through ballistic missiles, potentially prompting nuclear escalation. The Trump administration shows dangerous disarray, with sycophantic advisors unwilling to challenge reckless decisions. Iran has spent years preparing for this confrontation, building missile capabilities and regional alliances with Russia and China. Diplomats from Oman and Qatar desperately seek de-escalation, recognizing no side can win this conflict. Discussion connects Gaza's humanitarian crisis to broader regional instability, while China advances plans to replace dollar dominance with renminbi. Ukraine negotiations similarly falter under incompetent US diplomacy. A "march to folly" scenario looms—leaders marching toward disaster with open eyes but no strategic foresight, risking global conflagration.

  • Col. Larry Wilkerson: The U.S. Just Hit a Point of No Return
    This interview explores Iran’s stance on a potential comprehensive deal with the U.S., arguing that Palestine lies at the heart of any real agreement. Sanctions, nuclear negotiations, and regional tensions are framed within a broader struggle over sovereignty and Western influence. The speakers claim Iran seeks sanctions relief while resisting pressure to abandon its allies. They warn that war with Iran would trigger regional escalation, economic shockwaves, and global instability, while reshaping power dynamics between the West and rising powers like Russia and China.

  • Mohammad Marandi & Larry C. Johnson: U.S. & Iran on the Brink as Critical Negotiations Unfold LIVE
    Iran's strategic posture after the 12-day war: shifting from defense to offense while pursuing diplomacy in Oman. Officials warn that any U.S. or Israeli attack would trigger immediate regional retaliation—targeting oil infrastructure, Gulf bases, and Israel—collapsing global energy markets and the world economy. Despite Western pressure, Iran refuses to abandon sovereignty or regional allies. Military capabilities have expanded with Russian/Chinese cooperation: advanced air defense systems, underground missile bases, and drone networks. Public opinion in Iran increasingly supports nuclear deterrence after repeated aggression. Analysts stress that U.S. military limitations—evident in Afghanistan, Iraq, and against Houthis—make victory impossible. Iran's strategy: negotiate reasonably to expose Western intransigence while preparing for existential defense. War would devastate American interests far more than Iran's, potentially triggering domestic U.S. instability. The West's economic hegemony is already unraveling—a conflict would accelerate its collapse.

  • John Helmer: Shadow Fleet Showdown: U.S. Seizes Russian Tankers as Global Power Deals Unravel
    Analysis of the "Anchorage formula" dispute revealing deep factional splits in Moscow: Lavrov declares the U.S. violated any Anchorage understanding through escalating tanker seizures and sanctions, while Kremlin business factions (Dmitriev) believe deals with Trump envoys can restore economic relations. The U.S. wages unprecedented naval warfare—intercepting vessels from Scotland to the Indian Ocean—aiming to strangle Russian energy exports and fracture Russia-China-India-Iran cooperation. Moscow debates whether to convoy-flagged tankers with naval escorts, risking direct U.S. confrontation. Meanwhile, European leaders show political weakness, prioritizing domestic survival over collective resistance to American pressure. The core dilemma: negotiate under duress or resist knowing escalation could trigger wider conflict. Naval brinkmanship intensifies as global trade routes become contested battlegrounds.

  • Larry C. Johnson & Col. Larry Wilkerson: The New Axis? Russia, Iran War Shield & China’s WARNING
    Analysis of stalled US-Iran negotiations reveals deep mutual distrust following last year's failed talks. Discussion of the limited US naval presence in the region—just one carrier and three destroyers—suggests military action would be disastrous given Iran's defensive capabilities and potential Russian-Chinese response. Assessment that economic warfare, not diplomacy, drives US policy: deliberate creation of dollar shortages triggered bank collapses and currency freefall to provoke unrest. Broader context includes China-Russia coordination on alternative financial systems (CIPS) challenging dollar dominance, and Europe's self-destructive energy policies. Critical examination of US hypocrisy: Iran has killed virtually no Americans since 1979 while US actions (including enabling Saddam's chemical weapons use) contributed to hundreds of thousands of Iranian deaths. The nuclear issue masks regime change objectives
