8:47Now PlayingJimmy shares a video analysis explaining why the US cannot drop a nuclear bomb on Iran, arguing that doing so would break the "nuclear taboo" in place since 1945, trigger a global arms race, and push Russia and China into direct confrontation. The video outlines that Iran's nuclear facilities are buried deep in mountains, meaning multiple bunker-buster nukes would release radiation poisoning US allies and troops in the region.
The video also warns that Iran would respond with cyberattacks on US civilian infrastructure, unleash its Axis of Resistance proxies (Hezbollah with 100,000+ missiles and Houthis), and block the Strait of Hormuz, spiking oil prices to $100-200 per barrel and crashing the economy. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger add that the US possesses even worse non-nuclear "energy weapons" and weather weapons that remain classified, concluding that Trump likely meant those, not nukes, when threatening to "end a civilization."
