After this, we aren’t returning to the Middle East. Maybe,as Professor Jiang forecasts, Israel will become the new hegemon dominating the region, using AI driven surveillance governance on biotracked, imported workers living incities like these.

TheUS took billions of military equipment and investment losses last week, most of which were apparently “unexpected” by Pentagon planners. Those losses continue, and they are being compounded by a growing and shared realization among our Arab allies in the Gulf that the US government never intended to defend them. The Arab role in the US-Arab partnership was to spend and invest in American projects and the MIC, overpay for a wide variety of US products and services, and do what they were told.

Saudi Arabia, the Emirates, Bahrain and Qatar among others have sought to diversify their economies, and develop friendlier relations with both West and East, including with Iran. Perhaps this is why Israel needed the US to act now, and not a few years from now. Sovereignty, economic resilience and political independence of other countries in the region, from North Africa to Egypt to Iran, is utterly intolerable to Israel,as she seeks her expansion and destiny.

When we consider US “wars,” we usually start from an incorrect assumption. The US has engaged in one long continuous war since 1947 with the establishment of the CIA and the national security state – and the US has pursued continuous debasement of the US dollar since 1971. This is why most observers were not celebrating the end of 20 years in Afghanistan, because overnight those resources – and profits – seamlessly shifted to Ukraine, and from Ukraine, to Venezuela, and to Iran, with the same profiteers of the continuous war always well rewarded. The American experience of war is continuous, against minor enemies whose role was to persist, and burn, feeding the machine. This designed destruction for some, with profit creation for others, was conducted under the soothing umbrella of mutually assured destruction that might be executed, wouldn’t dare be, by Russia and China.

These wars have never been about threats or values – they have been about money and resources, driven by the multinational moneymakers, who invest and package everything from consumer goods, weapons, energy and AI, to land, housing, natural resources, food production networks, and water. TheGreat Takingis ongoing, withmonetization, elite extraction and leverageof what we thought was our production, our prosperity, and our peace.

Raging Western debt, never intended to be repaid, is now driving a US need to possess and control human and energy resources, and concentrate that control into ever fewer hands. War, in addition to its profiteering aspect, is historically the great destroyer of debt owed to the losers, by repudiation, or through elimination of note-holders, whether individual or state.

The US war on Iran, beyond a diversion from Epstein accountability, is about US control over the flow of the world’s energy to constrain and confront China, and facilitate more US debt. The US intends to be the sole uber-dominant global power, a vision that splashes hilariously in the verbal diarrhea of an ill-informed and angry old man in Florida.
