Iran Sees the War As an Opportunity to Reshape The Region

On Monday morning, British intelligence analyst Alistair Crook was the guest on Judge Napolitano’s Judging Freedom Podcast.Besides stating the obvious that Iran would not be interested in negotiating after the assassination of the Ayatollah, in response to Judge Nap asking, “Does Iran have any interest in compromising with the United States?” Alistair Crook answered, “No, they don’t. I need to explain it because it sounds a bit counter-intuitive, but Iran is seeing these events more as an opportunity to change the whole, if you like, geopolitics of West Asia and invert it completely to remove the United States from West Asia.”

Crook goes on to give a brief history of the region, reminding the listeners that Iran was the major player in the region up until about 1974, when the United States decided to shift the power based on the creation of the petrodollar, to the Sunni Sheikh-led nations. Crook said that in 1974, after the huge rise in the value of oil, “America actually encouraged those states to increase the price. They said, ‘Keep it up; you can do what you like, but providing all the reserves and excess savings, you have put those into the United States, states or investments with the United States.’”

Iran sees the current war as the opportunity to undo what they perceive as fifty years of containment. The question for everyone is: Is the Epstein class, i.e., Global Britain and its minions (Trump), so desperate to preserve their hegemony that they would resort to a nuclear bomb to prevent the realignment from occurring?
