Scott Ritter joins The World This Week to discuss the U.S. and Israel’s war of aggression to overthrow the Iranian government with no credible rationale or legal authority, unleashing a conflagration that could alter history.
Guest: Scott Ritter. Interviewer: Joe Lauria. Producer: Cathy Vogan.
Samson Option?
Iran has more than enough hypersonics in its stockpiles to inflict serious damages on Tel Aviv and every single Washington military base throughout the gulf for at least the next few months. The IRGC has been building and planning for this exact war for over 40 years. Many Neocons and other Zio freaks actually thought that after Khamenei was martyred the Iranian people would quickly lose their resolve. What bumbling boobs.
The arrogant and sadistic Zio settlers are sooner or later going to get sick and tired of having to constantly shuttle off to shelters in the middle of the night.
From what I’m gathering, Tehran has choked off the Strait of Hormuz and is permitting petroleum trade only with China, Russia and other good hearted allies.
The co-conspirators: Trump and the Zio supremacists, may have bit off more than they can handle, which brings up the seminal point of my comment — will the West Asian psychopathological land-thieves reach for their nukes?
Thank you, Joe Lauria, Scott Ritter, Cathy Vogan! Undoubtedly, “Aggression on Iran” is a banger! Simply, Outstanding! Super, Impressive!! Straight f/fire!!! No doubt about it, this whole 3-D facade society, is all just castles, built on sand. The foundation of torture & murder, Trump’s-Vance’s, Inc., Operation “Kill, first. Think, later,” executed with impunity, is at the core of this facade.
“The Worm.” In less than 96 hrs., March’s Full Moon will bring out the WH’s lunatics, Marco “El Gusano” Rubio & DJ “The Worm” Trump, a “self-propagating malicious” POTUS. The USG’s standalone malware, POTUS, IS phkn w/plant, animal, human life, universally! The Worm’s wired to operate in a malicious, undesirable, inhumane manner i.e., “V” for Vendetta. Hence, Trump’s-Vance’s, Inc., “The Worm’s,” bloody, f/wars, on the land, in the air and on the sea, rock’n impunity.
AND, “The Tapeworm” aka Parasitic Flatworms, live large, in the US Congress. A network of corruption, the US Congress, is, “working tirelessly,” only, for Israel. It’s beyond, absurdity. Beyond, stupidity. Beyond, anything, a normal human species would ever, so f/even, conceive of doing!!!
Here “we” be @ “Operation, Wait & See.” I opt for Operation D.T., “Dump Trump.” TY.
The funniest thing I’ve heard in the last few days is that the Geniuses at the Pentagon were surprised that Iran launched retaliatory attacks after the assassination of the leader of their religion. They apparently expected the response to be what they learned as Plebes at West Point …. “Thank you Sir, May I have another?”
Gee, so naming your favorite TV celebrity to run the DOD really does have real impacts on the world? And a part of the stupidity appears to be sticking one’s fingers into one’s ears and saying NAH NAH NAH loudly, as Iran had been publicly saying that this would be their response to any further attack for quite some time now. To predict this, all they had to do was listen. But that is far beyond the abilities of the Pentagon, despite $Billions spent on hi-tech listening gear. Instead, we find ourselves in exactly the same spot as in Vietnam, a war against a determined enemy that we simply do not understand or even bother to listen to.
But, one thing we do know for certain about Donald Trump, when this goes wrong, he’ll be blaming somebody else.
Trump has recently declared that if Iran is to continue in its attacks then he would us ” overwhelming force” against them in pursuit of regime change. I believe that’s Trump code speak for using nuclear weapons. I rule out nothing with these sociopaths.
Scott Ritter has made the case here and in other videos that Iran has the missile firepower to deplete US and Israeli defense resources forcing the US to withdraw its military from forward positions. The global oil shock will continue and Trump will be facing massive defeat at the US mid term elections. Hi global plans and push against China will also take a hit. I don’t think he will allow it to get that far. Already Western media are pushing the narrative that Iran has stockpiles of 60% enriched uranium which could be the basis of up to ten nuclear weapons. This threat will be hyped by both the US and Israeli leadership as an existential threat that must be stopped by any means. Without consulting Congress Trump could then authorise nuclear bombings in Iran, so overwhelming in their effect that the Iranian leadership will immediately sue for peace. The Democrats and MAGA will accept this criminal action because they too cannot conceive of a US military loss. Trump cannot afford to lose and understands the fragility and self-absorption of the American psyche. As I say, I rule out nothing with these sociopaths.
Actually, Trump probably does not know this, as the old saying goes “Amateurs study tactics, professionals study logistics,” but Donald Trump’s plans to attack China have already taken a hit. Both him and Biden’s Administration had been saying 2027, but now?
These modern expensive missiles only come off of assembly lines at a given pace. Modern warfare requires stockpiles of such weapons. American stockpiles of expensive anti-missile missiles had probably only been rebuilt since the June ’25 USreal war against Iran. The last war appeared to suddenly end when the stockpiles were running short. This is sure to deplete them again, especially since Iran has recognized this as a weakness to be deliberately exploited.
Which means that someone who does study logistics is going to be doing the math that says that an even bigger war against China has to be delayed for more production time. Meanwhile, China is, as the old Patriots on Bunker Hill used to say, keeping their powder dry.
This war also prevents Iranian support for Hezbollah and Hamas Now the Israeli land grab can continue until the Palestinian people have disappeared from their land. The Zionist are evil people!
Great interview and analysis. Thankyou Mr. Lauria and Mr. Ritter. All my questions were answered. Now we have to wait for those 90 or so hours. That’s a long time. Anything could happen before then.
sad
sad
great
to think that my EU country’s foreign minister was proud
to be the first foreign minister BN called to let him know
abt the imminent “hit!“ against iran!
it is so far beyond embarrassing. as are the sickophant [sic]
statements of EU leaders who, instead of finally abandoning
their arrogant stance and siding w spain’s pedro sanchez to
condemn the illegal act of aggression, cheered it on.
re. the USofCIA being prepared for some ‘day after’:
did they EVER bother to worry about what happens
after they wreaked havoc in a country?
they do not need to care. destruction being their only [g]aim.
as to scott ritter worrying abt. proper pronunciation:
i’m actually impressed. you are the first US american
i hear pronounce ali khamenei’s name correctly.
goes to show: if you know your trade you know it.
War Whore$ Rule OK.
Here we go again.
Time for regime change… in the USA!
It’s actually the entire system that needs replaced, including oligarchs, mainstream media and Democrat/Republican representatives, all of them but a handful.
Is is being done in the United Kindom, where a vacant seat has just been taken by the Green, while Labour and Conservatives, the British equivalent to Democrats/Republicans, were obliterated. Why not in the USA? There are upcoming elections….
[Reactions from the depraved ‘elite’ in Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom and the European Union confirm that regime changes are needed there too!]
ALSO:
The war on Iran does not distract us from the fact that only half of the 6 million Epstein files have been released (obviouly these will be the most compromising ones).
Release ALL the Epstein files!
Every child born today upto a few years from now, will be of conscription age when ww3 breaks out.
Jeez that’s heavy
Scott Farquharson from the San Fernando Valley?
? III may have already begun. A major religious leader has been assassinated. Will two billion Muslims “take this lying down”?
Historians may well agree that World War III began in 2014 with the coup that overthrew the government of Ukraine.
Another faction might pick Feb 2022, as the beginning of the kinetic war involving a world power against what was really the NATO alliance.
When did World War 2 begin? In America, we go with whatever Oxford says, and the Brits entered the war in September 1939. Thus America picks that date instead of Dec 8, 1941. However, two of the major powers in the war were fighting each other from 1937 forward after militarist Japan attacked China. Italy and Germany were both aggressive powers which had fought wars and invaded nations before the German Reich began fighting Poland. But, Oxford holds to the belief that World War 2 began when the United Kingdom declared war on Germany. The Era of Appeasement is just simply not to be mentioned in polite company.
When World War III began will be largely determined by who wins, since the winners write the history. I can easily believe that I’ve already been living through World War III for a decade, and if I survive it I won’t really care what some academics say about when it ‘began’.
