Carlson starts off highlighting Lindsey Graham, who vowed; "...if Hezbollah, which is a proxy of Iran, launches a massive attack on Israel, I consider that a threat to the... state of Israel, existential in nature. I will introduce a resolution [in] the United States Senate to allow military action by the United States in conjunction with Israel to knock Iran out of the Oil Business..."
Carlson then asks: "So what would war with Iran mean? Well, it's hard to know because virtually no one who's talking about it in public is operating from a deep interest in America's interest. Is this good for us, or is it not?"
If, as Sen. Graham suggests, we start bombing critical infrastructure in Iran, Macgregor warns "the destruction would be wholesale" as Iran would target "all the bases we have in Iraq and Syria - with around 1000 Americans - would be targeted... and this time accurately."
According to Macgregor, "The chosen destination" if we continue on this path, "is Armageddon," and the implications (of which nobody seems to be considering) for the United States, Europe, and the Middle East are grave. For example, "just on the economic side, about 20% of the world's oil passes through the Straits of Hormuz every month - probably 25% of liquefied natural gas, and you're talking about shutting down 2 to three million barrels a day of oil from Iran.
"You know this entire region is involved in the war. This is not an Iranian Monopoly by any stretch of the imagination," he continued.
The two also discussed how one of the primary challenges of in contemplating war with Iran is the unpredictable nature of such conflicts. Economic sanctions, which have been the go-to strategy for years, have failed to cripple Iran's military capabilities. When military force comes into play, a whole new set of unknowns emerges.
The U.S. military, as it stands, may not be adequately prepared for such a conflict - particularly if the enemy has new weapons systems and capabilities.
"We've had the luxury of sitting around forward operating bases and striking opponents that were armed with AK-47s, and command detonated mines and the occasional mortar or rocket. Very, very low-intensity combat," he said, referring to the types of engagements the US military has grown accustomed to.
Nuclear wildcard?
According to Macgregor, "This is a high-end, conventional war that we're looking at, with the potential to go nuclear - which, obviously, I don't think we or the Russians want to happen, but we have the wild-card in Israel. They do have a nuclear capability."
"We don't know what the trip wire is for them to employ such a weapon. At that point of course, all bets are off and I think most of the world would turn against Israel. Right now, they just have to worry about the Muslim world against them," he continued, explaining that by focusing on Hamas and Hezbollah as immediate threats, the broader implications are obscured. For example, attacking urban environments such as Gaza comes with a high risk of civilian casualties - the consequences of which would catastrophic, both morally and strategically.
"Hezbollah has a very large operation in Mexico," says Macgregor. "There are no doubt many, many Hezbollah agents inside the United States. We can only begin to imagine the kind of trouble they could cause."
In the midst of all this, the question arises: How will a war with Iran affect American domestic politics? History shows that war is often used to stifle dissent, but in today's connected world, censorship can only go so far. Public opinion, initially in favor of violence against Hamas, may wane as the conflict escalates and images of destruction flood the media.
"But what's most important, I think, for Americans to understand is, if we attack Iran on the basis of Hezbollah's alleged willingness to attack Israel, if Israel gets into a real shooting war with Hezbollah, they have the largest armed forces in the region."

AS ONE OF THE SICK TRIBE SAID DISCUSSING THIS USELESSNESS
"iF THEY EVER PUT DOWN THE PEN AND PICK UP THE SWORD" ...
will never happen, ohhh how far the mighty Norsemen have fallen, christianity worked for the parasites .
Yeshua taught the WAY to God, based on commandments that show love and protect individuals rights and prevent the individual from losing rights and being left with government priviledges (examples are the right to build and own property, right to travel freely, right to happiness, right to procreate, right to use land, right to family inheriting property, own livestock etc...) included in this are the cancellation of ALL national debts in the 50th year and ALL personal debts in the 7th year (protection from national and individual financial slavery!!)...
Christianity is not taught by Yeshua as Christianity claims authority above God (expressed by the obvious fact there are 1000s of denominations who cannot unite under God's LAW because they have rejected God's instructions)
Paul's CHRISTIANITY preaches:
Romans 13
Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.
Where as John, who was taught by Yeshua states that:
1 John 5:19
We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one.

This is why this area is important (the Holy Land) and why it has had significance throughout history, it's geographical location has proved pinnacle to linking trade routes.
I don't believe for a second Israel had their sights on any other homeland however many times it has been played down.
Nows the time to say, " Be Very Afraid " " You should Be Very Afraid " I am freaked out !!.... We live in a hologram !!..
Armageddon is the final battle of good against evil.
This is Jews on Jewish media pretending to have impartiality, its theatre.
Nobody is able to quite say which countries are opposing Israel outside of the "Israel" owned media, ie nobody, because if they were to tell you Israel has compromised world security (on the basis of land and food security) you wouldn't buy into the nuclear bombs myth.
While your expecting mushroom cloud doom porn, your ability to feed and educate yourself is being slowly removed by competition, inflation and purposefully manufactured resource management, these fear mongers will never tell you your enemy is already at work in your immediate location, where ever you are right now, making you look to Iran as the holder of world peace and economic stability, Iran is hoping to be "self sufficient" on energy and hopes to "export" its own energy at its own prices on its own terms.....Israeli not like, hence the nuclear fear canard comes out of their box of tricks.
Nuclear enrichment helps countries have "autonomy" on electricity (ask Charles....see hinkley point power station etc), Israel needs the myth to keep the world not wanting Iran to develop its own self sufficiency program that will help undermine Israeli hedgemony in the middle east. The only down side is Iran without nuclear energy plants active up and running will leave them in possesion of materials other countries would love to have for warfare (irradiating areas highly populated...creating another like chernobyl causing health risks and slowing agriculture and poisoning water etc..ie dirty bombs see:Iraq how that injures population growth etc).
Tucker Carlson is the face the ignorant American will trust, the blue eyed boy who is still on payroll, still allowed to use their platform.
Nobody wins a nuclear war when every country has assets that are up for robbing. The premise is ridiculous. Israel wants everything.....EVERYTHING.....intact.
We are told every country that has a dog in the nuclear arms race can and will risk "complete" destruction in some domino like effort, it's a myth so powerful it can start a war without a single nuclear weapon being seen, the fear is the only tangible part of this threat, what did we all learn about Saddam, he had WMD. it worked as well, the fear from the threat is enough to gain the compliance needed, coming by way of consent, rather than conquest.
Iraq vs Jews (UK, USA, Israel.....under the political shield of Zionism).
Next up.....Iran (Iraq 2.0) same threat, same fear, same tax paying audience, same Jewish plot.same political shield (Zionism) same collateral (notice how many bored unemployed western males there are aged 18-50...wow thats a coincidence!!)
Also Neutron bombs leave everything intact, only killing the living.
So I agree they want everything intact...
So the silent killers...they use instead
The damage in Gaza will be cleaned up, just like the twin towers, just like the London underground, just like London or Dresden in WW2 etc etc...but things move foward, arrive that little bit closer to the Jewish goal of world government.
The next phase of this modus operandi has been accomplished hasn't it?
Isreal has AGAIN expanded it's territory, while proving hopefully to EVERYONE ACCROSS THE WORLD nothing is too precious or valuable to prevent or delay the next phase.
With regards to explosives, there are explosives that can make a mess and do serious damage, so instead of one massive uninhabitable area instead targetted specific places can in liberal fashion will be completely destroyed, but not some massive atomic crater where they still want to live and build their unholy temple.
Partly why the vaccines came out. Knowing the longevity clause on the recipients, as people fall away independently in a staggered time frame over say a three four even five year period, national governments can replace these peoples "maintained" homes with the unvaccinated peoples of their choice, reducing the surpless business and divesting it with infastructure carefully placed to capitalize on this massive plundering excercise. Easier to replace a few jobs at a time while reducing the economic dependancy, also adding as much totalitarian changes as a smooth transition, softly softly catch a monkey....Im speculating here, I don't know the future anymore than you but seems more likely when the need for a full frontal war is the least preferable option and less desirable (more messy and delays the ultimate goal.....world wide enslavement for us, world wide citizenship for them)
The Jews chose territory (land) over real life people (not even hollywood actors....real people were murdered, not just killed...murdered!!)
A murderer can sit down next to you, and look you in the eye, chat with you and get up and leave you there, unharmed, but once someone has accepted they have the keys to your life and the benefits of you being dead is worth it to them, he will murder you if wants to.
That is what these article writer pussys never actually brief you or I on is that Jews have no qualms lying, stealing whole countries, or personally killing men women and children....they don't feel the same trauma as you or I might that would prevent us from actually taking someones life, or seeing it through perhaps past intense rage, our spirit acts as a preventitive cautionary lock and it takes a certain type of individual to WANT to murder and even raise the standard on that.....to wholesale.....then raise it again ....and do it for a reason with dedication.....then when you think they wont.....they will raise the bar again.....and kill you for fun.
"For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?"
The point is, Satan and his children will obviously want no pushback, and prefer a clean trajectory to reach their goals, but that aggression is there if it is needed. This is not a joke either.
"I send you out as sheep amongst wolves"
Notta Israel is the puppet child and Pinocchio's nose is many miles long.
GAZA will be their Achilles heel.
This Israel is the whore who rides the beast.
Mark it.
