This conversation unpacks deep skepticism about the narrative being pushed by former President Trump and his allies regarding the supposed end of the war with Iran. Key points include:

1. Nuclear Monopoly and Regional Power:
Analysts argue that Israel views its nuclear dominance as essential for regional hegemony.

Iran or other nations developing nuclear capability would challenge that power structure, making future nuclear proliferation in the Middle East likely.

The broader context includes financial and geopolitical interests from Western institutions like those in New York and London.

2. Trump’s Oil & Sanctions Policy:
Trump suggested he’s allowing China to buy oil from Iran post-conflict, calling it a practical move to help Iran rebuild.

Doug Macgregor calls this delusional, pointing out Iran's potential to close or mine the Strait of Hormuz, which would severely disrupt global oil trade.

He notes that China and Russia likely support Iran behind the scenes, reducing U.S. leverage.

3. Critique of the War Narrative:
Trump and JD Vance claim Iran's nuclear and missile programs are destroyed and peace is now possible.

Macgregor rebuts this, insisting Iran still has thousands of missiles and significant war capacity.

He argues that what U.S. officials call a “path to peace” is, from Iran’s perspective, a path to submission to Israel—something Iran will never accept.
