55:41Now PlayingIs Donald Trump trying to take control of Iran’s oil? Recent statements about Iran’s energy infrastructure, Kharg Island, and the Strait of Hormuz have sparked a fierce debate about the real objectives of the U.S.-Iran conflict. Trump has openly discussed taking Iran’s oil export hub and controlling key energy routes, raising questions about the future of the war and America’s role in the Middle East.
Dr. Allan Lichtman examines the historical, political, and economic implications of these remarks. Are these statements negotiating tactics, wartime rhetoric, or evidence of a broader strategy centered on energy resources and geopolitical power?
Join us LIVE as we break down the latest developments in the Iran conflict, rising oil prices, the Strait of Hormuz, U.S. foreign policy, and what history can teach us about wars fought around strategic resources.
