Speaker 2 (00:08):
All Right, Trump says, give negotiations one last chance before
the United States formally enters the war. I'm not saying
he's made a decision, but he says he's going to
get pick two weeks, but he wants there's a substantial chance,
as he put it, for a deal with the Mullahs.
(00:28):
He wants to give it that chance. Agree, disagree, six

Speaker 3 (00:43):
Good morning, Jeff. I'm not sure how widely known this
is to the public at large, because sadly, our news
media tends to emphasize what I would call trivia or misinformation.
But in two twenty twenty three, the University of Technology, Sydney,
(01:05):
specifically August ninth, twenty twenty three, produced a report that
Iran has the world's second largest lithium deposits. So right
now China is dependent upon Chile and other countries for
(01:27):
the lithium extraction, which then is sent to China where
it's refined. So I would say if I could sit
down with President Trump, I would say to him, mister President,
here is the opportunity of a lifetime. The US and
many other countries of the world, advanced countries of the world,
(01:50):
need to extricate themselves from dependence on China for lithium,
which is process lithium, which is now controlling or influencing
the world market in terms of pricing. So the best
way to bring peace to the Middle East is through
(02:12):
a collaboration with Iran to develop that market. And this
documentation is also known to the US Army. Because I
verified what I had read on the University of Technology
Sydney's website, I was able to locate a I'm going
(02:36):
to tell you precisely what it is, so it is
now known by the US government. But because we're so
with such a big behemoth, I think that you have
all these specialized people here, there and everywhere, and a
lot of times critical information is not really shared.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Right, No, Maryland, You're absolutely right. Look, Iran, besides its
vast oil and natural gas you mentioned the lithium, Iran
has I mean, just almost an infinite amount of natural resources.
It is resource rich, and to be honest, that's why
the Chinese are backing the Iranians because they want to
(03:15):
plunder that country. That's what they want. They want to
suck a dry by the way, like they're sucking Afghanistan dry.
And so one of the big stories over the last
forty eight hours is that Chinese transport planes have been
seen landing in Tehran, and Xi Jinping has told Israel,
(03:37):
these planes are going. We're not telling you why or
what they're what's in them, but you better not shoot
any of them down. You shoot one of those planes down,
you're at war with China, and you don't want to
be at war with us. So what are the Chinese
doing there? We don't know. What are they supplying the
mullahs with, We don't know, what are they taking out
(03:58):
of the country. We don't know. But there's no question
that even more than Russia, China now has become really
the big protector and guaranteur of Iran. Iran is effectively
a client state of China. And so this is another
(04:20):
Things are happening so fast that it's hard to process everything.
But what Israel is doing now, obviously with US helping
them every step of the way, is they're reshaping the
Middle East and they're possibly reshaping the world. If Iran falls.
What I mean by if Iran, if the Mullas fall,
(04:42):
if they lose power, this is a massive blow to
China and Russia and to Pakistan as well. It is
a especially to China. It is a massive, massive, massive blow.
There's no question about it. They will have lost one
of their top client states. And that's why the fight's
(05:05):
going to be on for what kind of a government
replaces the Mullas And what is scaring Trump And he's
right to be worried about this because it's scaring everybody
in his team is if Iran descends into pure anarchy,
civil war and chaos, that's the one thing you don't
(05:25):
want because then you're gonna have Isis on steroids with
nuclear components and shattered nuclear facilities and enrichment sites and
centrifuges littered all around the country. So that's why you know,
everyone's saying, well, why doesn't Trump just jump in, Why
(05:47):
don't you just jump in? Because he's looking at the
global chess board, you know, expression three D chess. He's
playing three D chess and so far again fingers crossed,
he's kept China at Bay contained him for the most part.
He's kept Russia and Pakistan at bay. The entire Muslim
(06:11):
Middle East is quiet, and Israel is rolling them. Now,
think about it. The second the United States jumps in,
and I know, from our domestic point of view, we're saying, well,
we just want to hammer four do we just want
to annihilate and decimate four dou It doesn't matter China.
(06:33):
The world will say, well, where's China. It's one thing
for Israel and Iran to fight it out, because that's
a proxy war. This is a proxy war now between
the United States and China, and to a lesser extent,
Russia allied with China. But this is now a proxy war. Now,
a proxy war is always a proxy war. Fine, you
(06:55):
don't get involved. We don't get involved, and you know
our proxies are fighting, so it's all fine. But the
moment we make the official declaration that we're in, the
world's gonna look to China and say, and your proxy
now is being ganged up on by the great Satan,
the United States and the little Satan now Israel, and
(07:18):
you're just gonna let them fall. So Trump is looking
at this and saying, why I jump in China. Now
may respond, Russia may respond. The Muslim Middle East may
be inflamed. Let Israel do what it's doing. We're on
the verge of victory. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
