The Truth About World War III – Prof. Jiang Xueqin

Do you believe that the war in Iran is

the catalyst to start World War II or

the end times?

>> I do. I I do. I I do. And I I I think

that I think that that's why they do it.

I think that people in the Pentagon know

that this war in Iran, it'll be it'll be

disaster because America is not ready

for a war. To fight a war, you need

first of all, you need manu

manufacturing capacity, right? You need

to be able to produce bullets and tanks

and planes. And America offshore its

manufacturing capacity to China. There's

no way that China is going to produce

tanks and bullets for the American

military, right? Okay, so that's issue

number one, military capacity, uh,

sorry, manufacturing capacity. Number

two is political will. And the reality

is that American people don't understand

why America would start a war in Iran.

And Americans have no ill feelings

towards Iranians. Okay? It's not like

Afghanistan and and Iraq where Americans

were gaslighted into believing that

Saddam Hussein was responsible for 911,

where Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass

destruction. You know, they you could

make a case like against Iraq and Saddam

Hussein. It's impossible for you to make

a case against Iran because Iranians

have been extremely cooperative. In

fact, you would argue that they've been

they gone out of their way to be as

peaceful as possible with America

because, you know, America assassinated

their top general in the Middle East,

General Salami, which is a declaration

of war. Basically, it's an act of war

when when you kill an ambassador, envoy

of a nation, right? But the Iranians

never retaliated. They never responded

really the and then you have operation

like hammer. you have all these acts of

provocation, right? And the and the

Iranians have shown tremendous restraint

and the Iranians have, you know, tried

every way in order to negotiate a peace

treaty, a new nuclear deal with with

Trump and Trump has always rebuffed them

and Trump has always tried to provoke

them. So, so Americans don't really

understand what the problem here is,

right? So, so to rally the nation

against for a war against Iran will be

really hard. I I I I think they'll have

problems with a draft, right? because

you'll need a draft in order to send

troops to Iran. And like which Americans

are going to go fight this war, right?

And then remember like the biggest

problem in Vietnam was fragging. I'm not

sure if if you term fragging, but but

fracking is where soldiers killed on

offer because their officers were

idiotic or incompetent or sent sent to

their deaths because the officers wanted

to rise up in in the rank. So fracking

was a huge problem in Vietnam. So so

basically troop morale. Okay. you're

you're going to have a problem of troop

morale if you fight this war in Iran.

The third problem is just logistics,

which is say that Iran is three times

the size of Iraq and Iran is

mountainate, right? So Iraq was a

desert, which makes it ideal for an air

campaign. Um, and this war was wrapped

up in two weeks time. There's nothing

the Iraqis could do about it. And also

because of sanctions,

>> you said 3 weeks in your in your lecture

that they brag that it was three weeks

to

>> Yeah. Two or three weeks. Yeah. Yeah.

Right. So two or three week, right?

Yeah. But but but I mean like like from

so from perspective you know if we did

that in Iraq we can do the same thing I

Iran and and and so like if you just

look at the reporting they're looking at

about a week's long campaign in order to

decapitate the regime and I'm like

that's going to take years man to

decapitate the regime but they don't

really understand that. So logistics

will be a huge problem. And if you just

look at the American milit military

doctrine, it's shock and all, right?

It's like we go in, we blow things up

and then we leave. It's but like to

fight a war in Iran, you need to go in,

establish fort operating bases, control

log districts, win over the population,

and then slowly advance against tan. And

and that's what the Russians do and

that's what the Russians are doing very

well in Ukraine. Americans don't do

that. Americans are like, you know, go

in, do it on the cheap and then get get

out get out and then they release or

whoever. So take take care of the rest.

So logistics is not going to work out

for the Americans. And number four is

Russia is is going to get involved,

right? Because because like let's just

assume that Americans go in and take

over Iraq. Well, now the southern

underbelly of Russia is exposed. They're

fighting this war in Ukraine. So the

eastern fl eastern flag is um occupied.

Now the s southern flank opens up you

know and the southern flank is is as you

know mostly Muslim right and it's very

easy for the Americans to embed

insurgents ISIS insurgents you know

which which is basically CIA to disrupt

the southern flank of Russia so Iran is

an exious crisis for Russia they have to

protect Iran otherwise they're exposed

in in the south China gets most a lot of

its oil from Iran Iran exports about 80%

of its oil really cheaply to China and

if Iran were to close off the if you

move then China would lose its oil

supply. So China would need would need

to get involved as well. So, so there

are these geopolitical dimensions that

really didn't exist during the 2003 Iraq

war. remember because because after the

war on because after 911 the world was

sympathetic to uh towards America and so

when you know Bush declared war against

Iraq he was able to build a coalition of

the willing right you had to you had

Britain Tony Blair heavily involved in

the the war and the United Nations was

also involved as well in rebuilding Iraq

after the war and but you know with this

um war in Iran the United States is

basically alone and it's going to be up

against major geopolitical adversaries

including China and and Russia problem

number five is that America is now

politically polarized. It's a very

divided country. So, you can imagine

that this war in Iran, then you're

you're going to see massive protest. You

know, the entire left is galvanized and

you'll see this massive protest. ICE and

um homeland security will go in and and

you you're going to have a Vietnam

situation where the war can't be worn

overseas and then the war is probably

going to be loss of home. So, so I mean

I I can go on, but but I mean like it's

it's a hopeless situation for the

American

>> I I loved your lecture, your

comprehensive analysis on war in Iran

because I think most people are

predicting that America defeats Iran in

a war, but you explained and again you

reiterated it here how Iran is a

mountainous region. So they're going to

have to deploy troops. You speculated

around 100,000 and that it would end up

being a hostage a hostage situation

because they wouldn't be able Iran would

not let the troops leave, right? So they

have to deploy them by plane. But Iran

has good technology in order to shoot

down planes,

>> drones, drones. All you need is drones.

And you know, you know, Iran is has

prepared for this war and we know

because of the weaponry, right? Where

have they focus all the resources? On

drones, right, and on ballistic

missiles, which is which is the ideal

situation if you're anticipating an

American invasion. So some something

else I forgot to mention which is very

important is the religious nature uh the

religious framework of the Iranians.

They're different from other Muslims and

that the Shia Muslims, right? And Shia

Muslims as you know they believe in

esquetology you know the 12 IM they

believe in martyrdom. Um if you go back

in the 1980s and you look at Iraq

Iranian war I mean like if you if you

just look at the like like the framework

or um in the beginning right you had the

Iraqis who were backed up by both the

Soviet Union and Americans. They had

advanced helicopters tanks and then the

Iranians had to destroy their own

military. They don't they didn't really

have in the air force. They had they did

have planes. they couldn't they couldn't

actually uh fix their planes because

they got all their materials from from

the Americans. And so what they what

they did was they just went out in the

front lines with the rifles and they

just scared the living [ __ ] out of out

of the Iraqis, right? Because these

people, the Iranians, they're not afraid

to die for the homeland. They're not

they're not afraid to die for the for

the religion. Deal with people who have

actual religious faith and zealatry in

the war.

>> So you you cut out for a second, but

yeah, you mentioned the difference.

Sunnis Sunnis in uh in Islam. We still

do believe in in martyrdom or you could

see the resistance fighters in in

Palestine right now that they they do.

So what do you could you explain the the

difference in in martyrdom? What was

your your main difference between Shia

and Sunni if you could explain that?

>> Yeah. So again I don't know as much

about the Islam Islam Islamic faith as

as you do. Okay. But the Shia has always

been a minority a persecuted minority

within the larger faith and yeah about

10% they always and they've always been

persecuted because they're considered

like heretics, right? uh because they

follow ali and and the way they've been

able to survive as a group is cohesion,

right? They they and but also martyrdom

where it's it's the greatest honor

sacrifice yourself for the the cause and

so so this is one factor. The other

thing about the um is that they're

Zoroastrian as well. So even though you

know they are on the surface Islamic you

know in their hearts their soul is Zor

Zoroast and Zoroastrian has always been

an esqueological tradition and and you

know this is the Persian Empire. So they

have this you know belief in estology.

They have this deep um national pride.

They have this these are extremely brave

people. Um the the she are are sort of

notorious for for the fan for being

fanatics and for for being zealots.

Right.

>> And they deserve credit for that. Did

you see them burn the ball statue two or

three

>> days? Yeah. And and like look look I

think when they did that that's to say

that we're all in now. Okay. If you hit

us this time we're going to go on. It's

not gonna be like last year when you hit

us, we'll be like, "Okay, like you know,

we don't we don't really fight." It's

like you now you hit us, we've made the

commitment to go all in. We will fight

you to the death.

>> Yeah, I know you you definitely I want

to get into faith on later, but there's

so much more to talk about

geopolitically and your predictions, but

you definitely know a lot about Islamic

Empire and the differences. And what's

what I really liked about your analysis

was the comparison to Zilinsky and

Ukraine, right? Zilinsky was a former

television actor just as Trump. Trump

was a reality TV star. So, their focus

is going to be on optics and

appearances, right? And so, that's why

Trump is probably going to have an

invasion in Iran because it's going to

look good on TV. Zilinsky, his grave

mistake, and you were completely right

about this, was the fact that he was

fighting a losing battle. He should have

retreated, but he wanted to be on the

front lines, and he was wearing the

turtleneck and always trying to appear

as a good leader. He had hubris, and

that was the his downfall is

prioritizing his ego rather than the

good the goodness of his country.

>> Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. No, that that's the

issue with American military doctrine.

It's all for the audience back at home,

right? So you look at Desert Storm, it

it was the first TV war, you know, the

the Persian Gulf War back in 1999 and

and you know, see it's actually what

made CNN so powerful, so so famous,

right? So so you know, American

military, it's for for them, it's like,

you know, it's about winning within the

optic and it's it's disaster against

Iran because remember for the past 20

years, America has never really fought

an enemy that is willing to fight to the

death, right? So you when they went into

2003 when they went to Iraq the

population had turned against Saddam

Hussein anyway. He was very unpopular

because of all the economic sanctions

because it was dictatorship and people

really believed that this war was a war

of liberation and that it would bring

democracy and economic prosperity to

Iraq. And but then of course we saw what

happened and and and the people who saw

it happened really close up of course is

Iranians because they live next door.

And so they they know exactly like when

the Americans come in it's not to bring

democracy. It's not to reinstall the

sha. It's it's not to uh get rid get rid

of the the Islamic theocracy. It's to to

break up the nation into ethnic enclaves

so that it could be divided divided and

ruled. It's to destroy the nation of

Iran which is what they did in Syria and

Libya. You go to s the you remember

forget this but in the 70s and ' 80s

Libya, Syria and Iraq, all three of

these nations were vibrant middle class

countries and then because economic

sanctions because of the Americans these

all these nations were destroyed. You go

to Libya today, it's no longer a

functioning state. You have slave

markets in in Libya. So so the Iranians

know this this is a war to the death and

and they will fight to the death.

>> Yeah. I want to ask you so there's two

conflicting things going on, right? When

it comes to esquetology, what it's

stated for to create greater Israel, to

expand from the Nile to the Euphrates,

is that they need to intentionally

spread anti-semitism so that Jews can

operate as a monolithic group. But how

does that coincide with the fact that

they also need support? They they need

to have people hating Iran and also

thinking that the US and Israel are the

same country and should work together.

How How do you spread anti-semitism

while also Netanyahu is paying people

$7,000 per post? He's going on the Neelk

Boys podcast. How do you spread

anti-semitism but also get support?

Because if you don't have that faith

that this war is something good probably

why the Vietnam War was such a disaster

is that they knew from the jump which

you stated in your lecture that this was

a losing battle but they kept on

fighting because the casino effect right

once you go into the casino you can't

leave because once you lose you want to

make back your losses. So how do you how

are they intentionally spreading

anti-semitism while also gaining support

for this war?

>> Right. Okay. So this goes back to the

founding of Zionism. Okay. So this is

Theodoro Hersel. This is the end of 19th

century and he was trying to create a

homeland for the Jews, right? And

they're looking at different

possibilities including like you know

Uganda and in Israel uh Palestine. But

the problem with Palestine of course was

that you had Arabs living there already

and so so herself was going around

promoting this plan and it was backed by

secret societies and by transnational

capital. And the problem of course is

that Jews were like this is [ __ ] We

are happy in Britain. We're happy in

Germany. We're happy in America. Why the

hell would we want to go to a desert

where where everyone's poor and it's

just backwards? So, so only about 3% of

the entire population of Jews around the

world at that time ported the idea of a

homeland for for for Jews, right? Also,

there were these religious

considerations in that if you do this,

if you set up a homeland for the Jews,

you're going against the will of God

because Jews believe that they they will

return to Jerusalem when the Messiah

appears and God will appoint the Messiah

to to appear. So, let's just wait for

the Messiah to appear and then we'll go

home. Okay. So, so that that that was a

faith of Jews at that time. Then of

course you had certain events that

happened in 20th century which compelled

the Jews to return to um Israel um and

and to found the state of Israel and

that of course is the Holocaust in World

War II. If you look at the history of

World War II and the rise of Hitler,

well, you know, you know, there's a lot

of suspicious activity. Okay. I mean

like like like I don't want to get into

it because I I don't I don't want you

banned from anywhere. Okay. Yeah,

>> but but yeah, no, I mean like like but

if you look at some of the evidence the

evidence will tell you is that Hitler

had every reason to work with the

Zionist, right? Because Hitler's

ambition was to get rid of the Jews. He

didn't want to kill the Jews because

that would look bad. What he wanted to

do was get the Jews and make them leave,

right? And then then you have the

Zionist in in Palestine who want the

Jews to come to come to Palestine. So of

course they work together. In fact, they

had these memos of cooperation where

where where Hitler would send Jews to to

Palestine.

>> They have our agreement.

>> Exactly. So you I mean like and it's

these are documents. Okay. So so the

idea of anti-semitism is not you know

like let's hate Jews. The entire point

of anti-mitism is let's get the Jews to

go back to Israel and leave us alone.

Right. I mean the entire message of

anti-mitism is like Jews are only loyal

to Israel and therefore they should go

to Israel and leave us alone.

>> Right.

>> Right. And Germany had uh had such a

great economic recovery. I don't know if

you're allowed to say this, but it's

just factually true that Germany was in

an economic disaster after World War I,

but after they changed the banks and

they kept them private, if I'm not

mistaken, and they refused to interact

with transnational capital the way that

they were before, Germany recovered in a

way that Europe had never seen.

>> Yeah. Yeah. No, I mean like look, I

mean, back in 1930s, Hitler was Times

Man of the Year. I mean he was

celebrated in throughout the the world

for restoring the German economy mainly

by nationalizing the German economy by

restoring sovereignty monetary

sovereignty right because because before

Hitler most of the German economy was

geared towards repaying war debts

reparation and Germany was being

controlled by something called the bank

of international settlement in basel

Germany which is like the central bank

of central bank and in existence the

entire point of the bank of

international settlements is to force

Germany to pay all its resources to

other nations. Okay. So, so Germany was

being bled out and then Hitler promised

national rejuvenation. He promised prom

promised national sovereignty. He didn't

want to conquer the world. He just

wanted to be left alone, right? I mean

like like like like that was his message

like you know we the German people ought

to have our own nation and we ought to

rule this nation by ourselves. But

because uh Hitler was destroying

transational capital because he was

kicking out the central banks right the

bank of the national settlement then the

response is to declare war right. So, so

you you can make the argument that all

Hitler wanted was national sovereignty,

but that national sovereignty would

disrupt trust national capital and

therefore capital had to conspire to

create a a war to get rid of him. And

and look look this is a pattern

throughout the 20th century like

whenever you try to defy Tres capital

then they they um then they go after

you. Okay, this is true for every nation

with everyone, right? You you look look

at a lot of these nations that have been

destroyed by the American military or

the nations that are being that are

being targeted by the American military,

right? These nations that have destroyed

or Libya, Syria, Iraq, they don't have

central banks. Countries that are being

targeted right now, Venezuela, Iran,

North Korea, they don't have central

banks either, right? So you can make the

argument the entire point of the

military industrial complex is to make

the world safe for transational capital.

And that's it.
