YouTube Description
as posted by the channelJimmy reports that Iran has escalated its strikes against US allies in the Persian Gulf region after the US launched "Project Freedom"—a humanitarian effort to escort commercial vessels through the Strait of Hormuz—by launching ballistic and cruise missiles at the UAE, striking the Fujairah oil terminal which allows the UAE to export oil without entering the strait. Iran's message is clear: "If they are not allowed to sell their oil, no one in the region is allowed to sell their oil either," directly challenging the petrodollar system and proving that the United States "can no longer guarantee the flow of energy."
Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger note that Iran has more ballistic and cruise missiles than the US has in the region, and that US bases have been so heavily damaged that they will take "years and years" to rebuild, with 13 out of 19 US military bases destroyed or rendered unusable. Jimmy concludes that Trump's only adviser who supported the war was "mental case Hegseth," while everyone else—including General Caine, Marco Rubio, JD Vance, Tulsi Gabbard, and CIA Director Ratcliffe—told him not to do it, but "he did it anyway because Benjamin Netanyahu said to” and because Trump is "completely controlled" by Israel.
