[00:00:00] پاکستان و امیر قطر می [00:00:01] of گفت چون این دو نفر کمیته حل اختلاف بودن. ما الان با [00:00:05] تضمین داریم دیپلاسی رو دنبال می کنیم. یعنی [00:00:09] اولاً یک [00:00:11] of شرایطی قرار دادیم که [00:00:14] آمریکایی ها اعتمادشون رو به ما [00:00:18] اثبات [00:00:20] of کنند. تا این شرایط اولیه [00:00:23] of عمل نشه ما وارد مرحله [00:00:24] of دوم نمیشیم. زمانی که آمریکایی ها اومدن به جای [00:00:28] انگلیسی ها. در سیاست خارجی ایران وارد [00:00:32] of شدن که بعد از کودتا علیه آقای [00:00:37] of مصدق و نهضت ملی شدن نفت رو اینا از بین بردن اون موقع [00:00:41] of آمریکایی ها اومدن وارد سیاست خارجی ایران شدن از اون موقع تا [00:00:45] امروز هیچگاه آمریکایی ها به تعهداتشون عمل نکردن [00:00:49] آمریکایی ها [00:00:50] هم میگن که به ایران [00:00:51] of نمیشه اعتماد کرد اولاً دروغ [00:00:56] of میگن [00:00:57] of ما تا حالا به هیچ کشوری حمله نکردیم. هیچ [00:01:00] مرز سیاسی کشورهای دیگه رو زیر سؤال نبورد به [00:01:04] تمام تعهدات بین المللی مون عمل کرده. چه [00:01:08] کسی از برجام خارج شد؟ آمریکا خارج شد. اونا [00:01:12] منظورشون از اعتماد کردن تسلیم [00:01:14] of کردن ایرانه. اونا اعتماد رو برابر با نوکری [00:01:18] می دونن. خب حالا اگر ما اعتماد کردیم. بالاخره باز [00:01:22] تضمین می خواهیم. اون تضمین یکیش تنگی [00:01:26] of هرمز. ما زمانی تعهد میدیم که تنگی هرمز باز. [00:01:30] باشه که این ها خرابکاری نکنن تهدید [00:01:33] نکنن به ایران حمله [00:01:37] نکنن [00:01:38] به همین دلیل ما اومدیم برای اینکه این [00:01:41] تضمین رو در حقیقت تثبیت کنیم با عمان [00:01:45] نشستیم این نقشش [00:01:47] a مشخص شده نقشش به توافق رسیده دیگه باید همین [00:01:51] روزها امضا [00:01:52] بشه. [00:02:08] in of of of [00:02:11] a [00:02:14] a [00:02:20] of There has [00:02:23] been over this weekend a major exchange of [00:02:26] of missile fire by Iran and the US targeting. tankers [00:02:30] and even a US [00:02:33] destroyer, the new [00:02:36] of secretary of of Iran's supreme national security [00:02:39] council said [00:02:41] in a very recent interview that Iran didn't use [00:02:45] ballistic missile for that attack on the [00:02:48] destroyer, but new weapon, but [00:02:51] let's go to Iran's escalation ladder, which we've talked about [00:02:55] before, this is a country that takes its [00:02:58] of time to send messages and does so when necessary [00:03:02] and to serve a strategic objective, unlike the [00:03:05] Americans, what is [00:03:08] of Iran's intent in this new round? you know, one [00:03:12] seems obvious to me, which is to punch a hole in Trump's [00:03:15] claims that tankers worth 9 billion dollars are getting [00:03:30] all [00:03:31] a along, what the Iranians were doing is since the war [00:03:34] started on February 28th, the primacy [00:03:38] was given to the [00:03:39] of diplomacy, that was the key thing, and as far [00:03:43] as the military was concerned, it was responding it for [00:03:47] that to whatever the Americans were doing in the [00:03:50] in region, so it was a proportionate response from the Iranian [00:03:54] military (IRGC). now when we look at [00:03:57] diplomacy, what they were trying to..." complises [00:04:01] create [00:04:02] a regional framework. what that [00:04:06] means is when we say [00:04:08] a regional security framework, it means that all [00:04:12] the issues concerning the region should be [00:04:15] of resolved by the countries [00:04:16] of the region itself without any interference from [00:04:20] outside pass. that's [00:04:22] a regional framework and this is something entirely [00:04:25] new. just to put it [00:04:27] in a context, this is the thinking [00:04:29] of the... new world owner [00:04:31] of which has the [00:04:32] of support of two great power Russia and China in the [00:04:35] multipolar [00:04:37] of world, so what we saw was that Iran's foreign [00:04:41] minister Abbas Arakshi in the month of May [00:04:45] and June, he traveled to Russia, he met up [00:04:48] with President Putin for an hour and a half in Saint [00:04:51] in Petersburg, after that in early June he [00:04:55] traveled to China met up with his [00:04:58] counterpart Wong. he got the support for this [00:05:02] framework from both the countries and after that when he came [00:05:06] back the Iranian leadership would have discussed this [00:05:09] that look we got the support and after that that on the 30, [00:05:13] 23rd of [00:05:16] June, [00:05:18] Iranian president, he did a state visit to Pakistan to get Pakistan on [00:05:22] board, the Pakistan leadership, because Pakistan is [00:05:25] playing very important role in this re [00:05:29] framework, the idea of which is about is coming [00:05:32] from Iran, but this is one the key [00:05:36] fundamentals the new world order, as I pointed [00:05:39] out, as a consequence of that what, has happened [00:05:43] is that on the 31st of August two big [00:05:46] events happened simultaneously on the same [00:05:49] day, on 31st of August in [00:05:53] Islamabad in sorry in Istanbul in [00:05:56] Turkey there was a announcement [00:05:59] that there will be a formalized arrangement was made [00:06:03] to be called Macca joint defense [00:06:06] agreement where there are three countries which [00:06:10] is Pakistan, Turkey and Saudi Arabia, the [00:06:14] concept is of collective security, which is what this new [00:06:17] world order fundamental thinking is [00:06:20] about, so on the same day, [00:06:23] 31st of August, the SEO summit also happened in [00:06:27] Kirgistan, and in Kirgistan when you look at [00:06:31] the joint statement, there was total support given to [00:06:34] Iran, support not only to Iran its [00:06:38] territorial integrity and sovereinity. to [00:06:42] the fact that there was aggression on Iran by America and [00:06:46] Israel and that Iran should have [00:06:50] or can have peaceful uses of nuclear energy [00:06:54] under the NPT, so there was total support for [00:06:58] Iran and the Iran thinking of regional [00:07:00] framework. now once this was done on the [00:07:03] 31st of August, this is when the Iranian [00:07:07] leadership decided, now we need to give [00:07:10] primacy to the military. power [00:07:14] and that is when the lead was [00:07:17] taken by the secretary the supreme national security [00:07:21] council major general masin reiz. [00:07:25] now he is a extremely important man, so after [00:07:29] that there were tanker to tanker hits, now you see a [00:07:32] tanker does not have any defensive means, but the [00:07:36] key thing was what resided, he [00:07:40] fired something unusual. that the Iranians had not done [00:07:44] before, and first thing to note is that the firing [00:07:48] was not done by the IRGC navy, [00:07:52] it was done by the IRGC aerospace [00:07:55] force and what was fired was a anti [00:07:59] ship ballistic missile with a [00:08:02] suppressed trajectory or depressed [00:08:05] trajectory and this missile is being called Kasim [00:08:09] Baseir. now this was basically fired [00:08:13] as demonstration to tell the Americans that [00:08:17] look all your fleet which is part the naval [00:08:21] blockade that you have put there, naval blockade [00:08:25] is an act of war, until now the Iranians [00:08:29] were quiet about it, so this was clear [00:08:32] indication about the vulnerability that the US military [00:08:36] faces and sentcom acknowledged that yes [00:08:40] this missile ballistic missile was fired, but our [00:08:44] aircraft carrier obviously it was George Washington. now [00:08:48] what happens is that whenever there is a aircraft [00:08:51] carrier, then there are lot of guided [00:08:54] missile destroyers which provided [00:08:57] basically the security which provide the defense, [00:09:01] and what these guided missile destroyers have, what [00:09:05] is called the ag system. [00:09:09] now in this edges combat system, the... [00:09:12] interceptors are there and the interceptors or the [00:09:16] American destroyers are of ratio company, there are three [00:09:19] types, the SM2 which is standard missile 2, [00:09:23] standard missile three [00:09:25] and standard missile six. the long and short the story [00:09:28] is that the missile that was fired [00:09:32] antiship ballistic missile with depressed trajectory, it [00:09:36] basically means that it it did not leave the [00:09:39] atmosphere, it stayed within the... stratosphere [00:09:43] on the higher reaches the atmosphere, so we are looking at [00:09:47] altitude of about 60 to 80 or 90 [00:09:50] kilometers, it stayed there and it had [00:09:54] a speed of close to 10 mac and [00:09:58] mac is the speed of sound and it it [00:10:02] fired at by the IRGC aerospace [00:10:05] force, it was fired a distance of around [00:10:08] 1000 kilometers and with a warhead, [00:10:13] which has a weight of close to 1.3 [00:10:16] ton. now this SM6 ballistic [00:10:19] missile or hostile basistic ballistic missile or hostile [00:10:23] ballistic missile. within the [00:10:26] atmosphere, but it is in the descent phase, it is coming [00:10:30] down, because ballistic missile [00:10:32] for follows a parabolic path, it is very clearly defined [00:10:36] path, but the problem here is that this missile [00:10:40] is coming at such a speed and the SM6 [00:10:44] interceptors the Americans, they have only been tested [00:10:48] in a controlled environment, not in operational [00:10:52] environment, and when you have this missile [00:10:55] coming at such a speed, it does not give any [00:10:59] reaction time to the SM6 and the radar the [00:11:03] ages system, which is very good radar to [00:11:06] basically identify the that yes there is hostile [00:11:10] missile coming and to kill that missile, so the [00:11:14] point i making is as far as the Americans are concerned, they [00:11:18] are totally diffenceless against this missile and the Americans know [00:11:22] it, and what this missile can do is [00:11:25] because of its 1.3 or 1.2 ton [00:11:29] warhead, it has explosive power and it has [00:11:33] kinetic energy, so if it hits the [00:11:36] ship, it can actually go through the deck the [00:11:39] ship, that is what it can do, so the point [00:11:43] here is mosin raz has made it clear [00:11:47] that this is the capability we have, and what is being told [00:11:51] to the Americans is on the one hand, [00:11:55] that look, you lift your naval blockade that [00:11:59] you have put in place, it was put two times, once on [00:12:02] the 13th of April, and after that early [00:12:06] July, [00:12:07] you know, I think it was early July after they signed the Mou [00:12:11] on 17th of June, so the point being made [00:12:14] is that this is your vulnerability and we'l hit it, [00:12:18] and already now the reports are saying that [00:12:21] Centcom, they have moved their ship further back. [00:12:25] and what reiz has further announced is that look, [00:12:29] wherever the line the blockade now is the [00:12:33] blockade, starting from there, there will be [00:12:36] restricted zone, restricted zone that [00:12:40] covers the gulf kilometers, this will all be [00:12:44] restricted zone, so the long and short is [00:12:47] enormous capabilities they have in state of hormos, not to go in the [00:12:51] details right now, i'm just trying to give you a br [00:12:56] of what's happening, so what they are basically saying [00:13:00] Iranians is that on the one hand, we are [00:13:03] announcing very soon a restricted zone, because [00:13:07] razi has said that this is not state of hermose, this is [00:13:11] state of Iran's dignity, that is what they are [00:13:15] calling it, now on the other hand, they have made [00:13:19] the conditions for assumption of talk with [00:13:22] Trump extremely harsh. extremely [00:13:26] difficult and of all the condition, if you ask me, I have [00:13:30] to pick up a single one, I would say that they want the [00:13:33] American forces out of West Asia, [00:13:37] this is very big thing in, because you see what I [00:13:41] earlier mentioned to you, that they have created [00:13:45] this regional framework, the physical manifestation [00:13:48] of which is the Makka joint defense agreement with [00:13:52] headquarters in Saudi Arabia. and the [00:13:56] first secretary general to be from Pakistan, it's a [00:14:00] very big thing, and top of that, already [00:14:03] two countries, Sergi Labrov has said, they are [00:14:07] interested in joining this, you know, this Macca [00:14:11] joint, the Sinai is in part of west Asia, but all [00:14:15] the Egypt is in North Africa, and then Algeria [00:14:19] has been mentioned as another country, so [00:14:23] this is what is being created. is get the Americans out of [00:14:26] West Asia, so let me just [00:14:30] finish this broad overview by telling you that [00:14:34] Americans today have no military options at all [00:14:38] given their vulnerability, and what is their vulnerability? [00:14:42] They have enormous military capabilities, they are one [00:14:46] country which spend one trillion dollars on the [00:14:50] Pentagon on the defense budget, but [00:14:53] unfortunately the K capabilities they have, they are the [00:14:56] 20th century warfare, big destroyers, [00:15:00] big aircraft carrier or has changed, these [00:15:04] are the vulnerabilities are now, now no longer the assets [00:15:08] and I am not even talking about right now the [00:15:12] enormous cyber capabilities that today the [00:15:15] Iranians have, so Iranians are wise [00:15:18] people who have gone step by step, there are far [00:15:22] too many other vulnerability also, which they can destroy and [00:15:26] the Americans know it, [00:15:39] some these points. Minsen Rizay of course [00:15:42] announced that it said that Iran would announce [00:15:46] shortly this new No go zone [00:15:49] around Hormos which would extend to the US Navy's [00:15:53] blockade line. We don't actually know where the [00:15:56] blockade is um because the [00:16:00] Americans don't announce where their their ships are based [00:16:04] in in various waterways but it's sounds, you were [00:16:08] talking about going to the north the Persian Gulf, it sounds that Iran is now [00:16:12] expanding the military theater in [00:16:15] waterways, well into the Arabian sea and [00:16:19] Indian Ocean, from where the US Navy [00:16:22] ostensibly enforces its blockade, um, [00:16:26] but [00:16:26] you know, here's the thing, the US Navy is [00:16:30] likely to strike iranian ships in any waters, anywhere [00:16:34] in the world, so it's not a blockade in... [00:16:37] waterway [00:16:52] there are reports and you have satellite [00:16:55] pictures, because the Iranians are [00:16:59] helped by the Chinese space capabilities which are way [00:17:02] ahead that the Americans, which is why in [00:17:06] 2019 President Trump in his first term in office, he [00:17:10] created the space force new service. Now [00:17:14] the point here to understand is that reports [00:17:17] clearly say that the blockade is 300 [00:17:21] kilometers away from the Gulf of Forman and [00:17:25] the Ccom reports now are coming and saying they pulled back [00:17:29] now another 100 kilometers so we are talking about [00:17:33] a 400 kilometer present line. Now [00:17:46] Iranians have the missiles and the drones, [00:17:49] Iranians have drones which are jet part, which [00:17:53] are long range, which can fire with precision [00:17:57] because the space capabilities provided by the Chinese, [00:18:01] their bedu three constellation as well as their Yagon [00:18:04] augmentation satellite systems. which are there in the [00:18:08] lower orbat which provide you a persistent [00:18:12] stare the theater, the theatre [00:18:15] today, when you look at the north, it goes to [00:18:19] the entire Mediterranean sea, and now you look at [00:18:23] south, in the Indian Ocean region, we are talking [00:18:27] about the capability of Iran to hit [00:18:30] digogasia, and digo today [00:18:34] is one logistic base the Americans which is... [00:18:37] serving three commands, it is serving the Africa [00:18:41] command, it is serving sidcom and it is serving pacific [00:18:45] command, and given the cyber capabilities that [00:18:48] today the Iranians have, first of all [00:18:52] cyber capabilities are such that they can [00:18:56] anywhere in the state of hermose or around that [00:19:00] disturb or disrupt, [00:19:03] the communications, ship to ship communications. [00:19:07] the US Navy and ship to show communications [00:19:11] and as far as Digo Garcier is concerned, the [00:19:15] entire logistic base the Americans which is huge [00:19:19] base is automated, so it is all [00:19:22] digitized. Now when you have all digitalization, that [00:19:26] means your missiles are a particular bunker, your fuel is [00:19:30] somewhere else, then your loading sites are somewhere else, then [00:19:34] they have massive runways for their stealth. [00:19:38] numbers everything is there digitized and the brain of a [00:19:41] digitization is what is called the PLC, [00:19:45] programmable logic controllers and today [00:19:49] the Iranians have come very long way from [00:19:52] 2010, please recall in [00:19:55] 2010 the Americans and the [00:19:58] Israelis they had done their [00:20:01] stuckness [00:20:03] you know. [00:20:08] their centrifuges malware and what they [00:20:12] did with that was that the centrifuges the [00:20:15] nasan facility nuclear facilities they were [00:20:19] disrupted so today the Iranians have come a [00:20:23] long way and they can disrupt the PLCs which are [00:20:27] there indigogartia in other words create [00:20:30] disturbance create complete chaos at digo [00:20:34] garsia [00:20:41] everything, their drones and missile capabilities [00:20:44] and everything what they have is underground, the [00:20:48] Iranians, this is a... work done over decades, what [00:20:52] they have done, over decades they have studied the [00:20:56] Americans, the military capabilities of Americas and [00:21:00] the strategy the [00:21:02] Israelis and of course [00:21:05] the America, the US Navy has retreated to Diego Garcia [00:21:09] because they've lost access to the fifth [00:21:13] fleet headquarters in Bahrain has been destroyed [00:21:17] there, so now the logistics all the ships [00:21:20] it is coming from digo garsia and because [00:21:24] petset kept this, he did not disclose this, perhaps [00:21:28] even to his commander in chief, the destruction which was done [00:21:32] so early by the Iranians in Bahraine [00:21:36] to the logistic center that we we then [00:21:40] now we have the reports the problems that Abraham [00:21:44] lincoln area faced, it was all [00:21:47] because of not publically as [00:21:51] to what all has happened on Abraham Lincoln, so [00:21:55] Abraham Lincoln now, I think is somewhere in Thailand, [00:21:58] Thailand, yeah, why would they go all the way to Thailand and not to [00:22:02] diego Garcia? no, Diego Garcia basically [00:22:06] is a port for the refilling, it is [00:22:08] logistic, but for the repairs and everything they have [00:22:12] to go to Thailand, because now east Asia they have [00:22:16] basically three allies, Thailand is one. ally [00:22:20] South Korea is another and Japan is another and then of course [00:22:24] they have Australia, this is what they have. now as far as [00:22:28] Pacific Command is concerned, there they have massive [00:22:32] shortages of interceptors and [00:22:35] initions and all these interceptors they [00:22:38] take years to build, not that, [00:22:42] you see America's industrial, military [00:22:45] industrial capabilities, they are very... [00:22:50] google right now to build them up to a war surge [00:22:53] level that will take few years and nothing [00:22:57] happen a hurry, so the point is that when you talk of a [00:23:01] theater, the theaters are under the command [00:23:05] of and the not command really, they are under the [00:23:08] observation, total observation 24 [00:23:12] into 7, what is what we call persistent [00:23:15] stair the Iranians, i also think the war [00:23:19] with the... Iran is um [00:23:22] offering opportunities to break [00:23:26] all the US dominated global networks from [00:23:29] insurance to shipping even you [00:23:32] know AI data centers right uh these are all [00:23:36] potentially targets on Iran's escalation ladder if [00:23:40] the US persists at this ridiculous war, but you you [00:23:44] made a really important point about the US fighting a [00:23:48] 20th century war. in the 21st century, it [00:23:51] is, it is outcassed, as we [00:23:55] have seen, um, but but [00:23:59] so then are its allies, because they [00:24:02] operate under those same paradigms, right, [00:24:06] militarily, um, and that means Israel [00:24:10] is included in this, Israel will be outclassed [00:24:13] in a direct Iran-Israel [00:24:31] in Beirot right now, the situation southern Lebanon has become [00:24:34] untenable. Israel is blowing up entire villages and towns [00:24:37] every single day in the south, and as we know, it was [00:24:41] Iran's number one demand in the failed MOU, from last [00:24:45] June, a withdrawal of all Israeli forces from Lebanon, all regional [00:24:48] states, does this... [00:25:01] of all, let me start by telling you that [00:25:04] Israel is not a military [00:25:06] power. we Israel's military [00:25:10] capabilities are overblower. Israel basically is [00:25:14] a state which does terrorism. israel's [00:25:18] unique thing is Musad. "that is [00:25:33] that the Iranians are very clear that they have to also [00:25:36] clear the security zone that they have captured in southern [00:25:40] Lebanon, and any case Beirot is the is their [00:25:43] red line where you are sitting, you see now, [00:25:47] but coming back to Israel, please remember..." when this war started [00:25:51] in just a couple of weeks, the [00:25:54] Israeli chief of army, he publically made the [00:25:58] statement that the IDF is over stretched. [00:26:04] because they are everywhere, they are fighting a war with, [00:26:08] they are with southern, southern Lebanon, they are in [00:26:12] Syria, they are with the yemenis, so they are all [00:26:15] over and they are fatigued, so the point I'm [00:26:19] making is a showdown that you are talking about [00:26:23] between Iran and Israel after the American [00:26:26] leaves, I don't think it makes any [00:26:29] sense, because yes of of course [00:26:33] Israel will have the capabilities of sent com, there is no [00:26:37] doubt about it and in the US congress and and [00:26:41] in the US congress, but the point the matter [00:26:44] is that once the once the american [00:26:48] forces leave and in that time frame [00:26:52] even this maka joint agreement would also [00:26:55] have further expanded and one the things the [00:26:59] Makka difference agreement is the concept o collective [00:27:03] deterence, there are two key concepts, one [00:27:07] is collective security, the other is collective det, so [00:27:11] even today if the Israelis have to attack [00:27:15] turkey, if they have to fight with Turkey, Turkey has no interest in [00:27:19] fighting with the Israelies, but if they [00:27:22] fight then they have to dftail this in their [00:27:26] war scheming that there are three countries, [00:27:30] now whether one will fight, or how many will fight, what [00:27:34] sort of capabilities will be provided by the other two countries to [00:27:38] Turkey. Israelis have to keep that in mind, and [00:27:41] as this agreement, more and more [00:27:45] countries joined, Iran, Iran's hand will be [00:27:49] strengthened, not weakened. we are looking a [00:27:52] situation, perhaps even [00:27:55] you know by next year [00:27:56] the entire situation will change and change to [00:28:00] the detriment of Israel. not to the benefit of his [00:28:04] royal. [00:28:34] In today's show we'll be revisiting the genocide in south Lebanon which is [00:28:38] continuing to see killings, displacement and the destruction of [00:28:42] homes unfolding every day despite a supposed cease [00:28:46] fire. Well, the scale of destruction in [00:28:49] south Lebanon is almost [00:28:52] unimaginable for most of us. This [00:28:56] is an area that is 10, 20 [00:29:00] times the size of Gaza that is... occupied by the Israelis [00:29:03] and they have been uh [00:29:06] conducting uh total ethnic [00:29:09] cleansing campaign. you don't make an agreement with the zinished entity and [00:29:13] expect that they will keep to it. they violate every cease fire [00:29:17] every treaty every agreement usually before it's even [00:29:21] come into effect. and of course that was the same uh in Lebanon from [00:29:25] June [00:29:25] onwards. [00:29:48] Iran's IAEA NBA slams the International Atomic [00:29:51] Energy Agency for referring Iran's nuclear file to the security [00:29:55] council saying the move has no legal [00:29:58] basis.
