In this video, I break down the recent escalation between India and Pakistan—what’s being called Operation Sindoor. We’ll look at what triggered the strikes, Pakistan’s response, the rumors about downed Rafale jets, and what all this could mean for the future.
🛑 Spoiler alert: I still haven’t caught up on The Last of Us, so don’t tell me what happens in Season 2, Episode 2.
Topics covered in this video:
* Operation Sindoor: What it is and why India launched it
* Pakistan’s claims about shooting down Indian jets
* What SEAD is and why it matters
* The dangers of disinformation during a conflict
* Why asymmetric warfare—not just fighter jets—could define the next phase
* How online bot farms in India, Pakistan, Russia, and China are shaping the narrative
And yeah, the timing is wild, because I just released a book The Last Republic, which imagines an alternate history where Mormon Prophet Brigham Young founded the Nation of Deseret—and the U.S. launches its own precision airstrikes.
