Will Israel Cause a World War?
video description
I will say boomers did cause a mess but that was more because of the free love movement and the rise of new age communism

Longtime listener, first time caller. So grateful that you make these videos! Your perspective is fascinating and while there have been times i struggle to agree, ive grown so much from the way you frame things. One topic not mentioned in this vid that I think is critical to either escalation/escalation is big tech.
Quite understandably, big tech is driven by shareholder value so in a sense we've screwed ourselves, but the amount of subversion and extremism coming from echochambers help create revenue (more time on platform = more ad ) is ripping us apart - reducing empathy and hacking pack mentality. It hurts to see but it's so clear. I'm not sure there's a clear fix either as it's just a flaw of our existing political/monetary system.
Observationally as someone not in the US, but in a five eyes country, wouldn't be surprised if Biden doesn't go for war in the middle east and Trump pledging he will (feeding into the big tech echo chamber) as a PR campaign tactic. Alternatively, I could also see the other happening (possibly more strategic for trump) given his existing base. Not supporting Israel if thigs escalate would ruin confidence in US allyship and possibly give China more of a reason to invade Taiwan (not that allyship justifies anyone of any country dying in war.
Again, all thoughts based on no fact. What happens will happen, but it sure is fascinating to watch and guess. I really hope the dominoes don't start (or continue) to fall but there are so many variables that the incremental chance (particularly next year) will be a test that's for sure.

I feel like there are two major aspects I often hear people talk about but you don't mention. Firstly that for a lot of western countries, especially the USA, there is strong feeling of patriotism/nationalism formed from an idealized and ideological mythology of WW2. For USA it is almost sort of a rebirth story where for Europe it has less emphasis but still very much a driving force of politics. To me it seems like the biggest factor in focusing on self interest in western countries is that the legacy of WW2 is fading and once gen A becomes of voting age those ideas will become a minority. Western countries will then gradually begin shifting to self serving politics rather than focusing on international ideological projects. Secondly the wealth of all nations is being funneled into a small portion of society. This is happening at different speeds depending on the country but even European countries with strong distribution mentality is seeing this effect. I don't know the exact effect this will have on war, but personally I think it will lead to less chance of major outbreaks of conflicts as they will prefer to maintain the status quo or slowly shift politics rather than acting based on random events they have no control over.

Israel was SUPPOSED to start a world war, but a) they waited too long, and b) destroyed their western support base. The US military is too weak to fight right now, and Israel got high on their own supply of degeneracy, so their military, of which was historically propped up by the US, is weaker than it's ever been.
Long story short, Israel only had ten to twenty years left after they lost to Hezbollah in 2006, of which was their first true unilateral war, and we're now seeing their end days. Even if they pull off another 9/11, everyone will know it was them, and their vassal states won't be able to do anything because Western Europe is dead, and the US is collapsing. Oh well!

33: 00 You forgot to mention the biggest butterfly effect of US Middle East policies, because of those shtty policies, it alienated tons of Americans from foreign policy making them feel like being isolationist is best choice since US screwed up so badly.
Seriously if US population resembled one after WW2 ended, there would be ZERO block of foreign aid for UA.
It's literally no brain choice and yet some rep. block it. This likely would never happen if US in middle east never happened, more people would trust US and US would have more legitimacy in the world as well as with it's domestic population.

Mostly agree with all of this.
perhaps except for how well you stated the war in UKR going. it should be said that the RUS forces started the war in terrible fashion and looked very incompetent.
But it would appear they are learning and and learning fast, when you factor in the logistical advantages like cost of weapons production, active man power, the ineffectiveness of sanctions ect.
it would appear they have a lot going their way.
As you said everything is subject to change, what the change will be is really anyone s guess.
it will almost certainly involve revolution as you ve predicted

tell me you are biased without telling me you are biased. Will Hamas cause another world war is THE TRUE title of this video, if this guy was not a biased fool. Israel did not start ANYTHING. Isreal offered PEACE dozens of times and the Palenstinian leaders REJECTED IT EACH TIME because only 95% of the land was NOT ENOUGH. THEY WANT IT ALL AND THEY WANT TO KILL ALL JEWS, AFTER THAT CHRISTIANS.
This guy is a fool and talks crap, has no idea about history and has been brainwashed by modern education and media. DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS FOOL.

The Ultra Orthodox are not to the right in Israel's system of Netanyahu's party which is Likud. The Ultra Orthodox parties have been part of left wing and right wing government coalitions and are just interested in getting more money for their community and for the government not to make their education system teach any secular studies (not just science, even math is not something they want taught) that are part of the core curriculum, to keep their population exempt from the draft and other sectarian intrests.

The question itself implies that Israel bears exclusive responsibility for causing a global conflict, insinuating that its actions alone can drag the entire world into a disaster. This perspective is unfortunate. Israel has not initiated the war; instead, it finds itself drawn into the conflict. The agency of numerous other powerful and significantly more populous entities than Israel is essential to escalate this conflict into a global war.

Maybe things stop here? Every day I see evidence to the contrary. I also agree with you. How can America possibly sustain a war on foreign soil when we can't even solve our own internal problems? With so much division on every issue, I feel like the federal government will collapse and that slack will be picked up by the individual States. Then they will carve out their own power blocks defined both geographically and ideologically.

I disagree with your framing of there being excess males. That s an anti-human stance. War is not inevitable. Another perspectives is that we are deling with limited resources exacerbated by excessive inequality. We must collectively accept less in the short term especially at the top to mitigate conflict. This is called Jubilee. The Rich must sacrifice their Power and Wealth and the masses will put down their pitchforks.

Wrong question. Does Putin set us all up for a wider war. Unfortunately I think yes. Israel or Hamas are not in control of each their own destiny at the moment. They are both reacting to external pressure. First Hamas and then Israel. There will be many more fires burning around the world and they will be linked to Putin. Look at Venezuela as they are starting a war right now.

If China attacks Taiwan and fails, the government will become more unstable. If not overthrown, there could be an internal coup. If China attacks Taiwan and wins, the issue then goes away and they no longer have it to rally their nationalists around. They would have to find something else. I tend to think the best thing for the PRC is to keep the Taiwan issue alive.

Israeli here, Haredim are not, or at least traditionally not considered right wing and more as you said a secterian party mostly interested in promoting secterian issues and diverting more of the national budget to its sector, they were part of plenty of left wing governments, maybe you confused them with the religious zionists?

1. US sent ships to attempt to get US hostages when the opportunity arises.
2. The key is Saudi Arabia possibly allying itself with Israel against Iran. Saudi does not want to and cannot fight Iran. But israel can.
What Saudi has is money and US tech. Enough money to fund Israel to fight everyone in the region.

Listening to you talk about potential future conflicts sounds SO MUCH like you just talking about history that has already happened. It's almost as if it is inevitable at this point. I, as I assume you also do, hope we don't fall into a crisis, but the current data and events sure do scare me

It s important to realize most nations enter wars within a week of the first hostilities, usually due to an alliance pact or because the war exposed obvious vulnerabilities within one of the sides. If the conditions today didn t provoke other nations to join, they won t in the future.

To all fellow White people/Europeans: Let go of this Abrahamic obsession, stop falling for this Talmudic subversion. Enough is enough. (They) have done nothing positive for us throughout history. Won't be any different know. Let this Semitic infighting pan out in whatever way it will.

They would have to draft people and nobody wants to fight for a bunch of zionist Jews. Meaning people will surrender or run away whenever they can, and the military will need death squads to keep regular troops from running off or surrendering.

I dont think Isreal war in Gaza will lead to an expanding war
This is already a expanding
War with many factions taking sides for or against the U. S. and it doesn't help that weak leadership is emboldening opposition to the U. S.
