The Middle East is entering a new era. Following Israel's strikes on Lebanon, Iran launched direct retaliatory missile attacks and announced a historic new doctrine: any attack on the \"resistance axis\" will trigger a direct Iranian response.
Simultaneously, a massive geopolitical shift is underway. Pakistan is brokering a new regional security alliance involving Iran, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Egypt, backed by Russia and China, effectively pushing the US out of the Gulf.
As the US pushes for a peace deal, Israel attempts to derail negotiations. We also discuss the collapse of the post-WWII global order, the decline of the petrodollar, and the shifting balance of global power.
