We are witnessing a historic moment.
In just four days, Iran managed to destroy some of the world's most valuable and expensive military bases, along with costly military equipment and facilities. These are the American bases in Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia. Their construction took decades and cost trillions of dollars. A significant portion of the military spending accumulated over more than thirty years has evaporated.
Radar systems costing hundreds of millions of dollars each were destroyed in moments. Entire military bases were evacuated and demolished. The United States has never experienced such destruction in its entire history, perhaps with the exception of Pearl Harbor, but that was just one attack.
No enemy in a conventional war has been able to inflict such damage on American forces. The military situation is so serious that media censorship is preventing the dissemination of most new information about this war.
We are supposedly talking about the world's largest military power, possessing the greatest air capabilities. Yet, on the fourth day of the alleged American attack, we see no evidence of American control over Iranian airspace. Where are the recordings of aircraft flying over Tehran or anywhere else in Iran? To understand the difficulty of this war, we are already hearing bizarre ideas from the Trump administration on the fourth day, such as sending military escorts for oil tankers leaving the Gulf. Do you want to send American ships into a region covered by thousands of Iranian missiles? Right now, no one can pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
And there is talk of arming Kurdish militias to invade Iran. Have you seen a map of Iran? Do you realize how vast it is? Do you think a militia of 10,000 can invade it? Or even 50,000? Or 100,000? Iran will swallow them up.
The United States and Israel, in my opinion, have already lost this war. They can kill millions of civilians in their homes and bomb buildings with powerful bombs, but they will not win this war. Iran's military infrastructure and weapons are located deep underground throughout Iran, and neither the United States nor Israel has a real chance of reaching them.
No, yeah, it was a real bone-headed move to start a war just to get people to stop talking about Trump's million points of mention in the Epstein files.
