Conversations Among The Ruins

Iran Regime Change Op | Trump Invading Greenland | Can We Avoid WW3?

Are we witnessing the start of a new regime change operation in Iran? In this episode, we break down the recent protests, the alleged involvement of the CIA and Mossad, and the media propaganda machine pushing for intervention. We analyze the "kill switch" on the internet, the circulation of fake footage, and why influencers are suddenly tweeting in lockstep. We also discuss President Trump’s increasingly erratic foreign policy—from the successful "kidnapping" of Maduro to his reported obsession with buying or invading Greenland. Is this "54D Chess" or dangerous megalomania? Finally, we look at the terrified state of NATO, the reality of US manufacturing constraints compared to Russian drone dominance, and the terrifying possibility that we are stumbling toward World War III.
