The guys break down the latest chaos in the Iran war, from the shaky “ceasefire” and Strait of Hormuz tanker stops to drone strikes, air defense gaps, and the global economic fallout. They also dig into the reported Israeli base in Iraq, covert action options, whether the U.S. goal is a non-nuclear Iran or regime change, and how China and Russia could exploit the crisis.
The episode also covers Ukraine’s growing edge against Russia, drone warfare lessons the West still needs to absorb, and Iran’s internet control through “white SIM cards” and regime-monitored access.
