There's internet in Israel. If that were the destruction Wilkerson is talking about, there would be thousands of videos of it.

Even if people managed to film (which is hard since they are in the shelters when missiles arrive), they would get into very very deep trouble for posting these videos online. 

These videos would allow iranians to evaluate the precision of their missiles and to adjust them in the future. So it’s a matter of national security not to post such videos, and fairly so the controls around it are super tight.

Still doesn't make sense for them if they want to hold onto power as a regime. If it carries on too long and they cause Israel too much damage, they risk a nuclear attack.

Religious fanatics don't care about nuclear strikes. They are glory and martyrdom. They will endure any cost. It's a different rulebook to the one the west subscribes to. The regime is riding a wave of popularity and patriotism which will shore them up for years to come. All countries unite in wartime.

In this broadcast, retired Colonel Douglas Macgregor offers a sharply critical reaction to President Donald Trump's recent address regarding the ongoing conflict with Iran. Macgregor labels the address as "theatre of the absurd" and warns that the current U.S. strategy is leading toward a major global catastrophe.

Key takeaways from the discussion include:

Economic Impact: Macgregor argues that the U.S. is endangering the global economy by escalating tensions. He emphasizes that the global supply chain, specifically energy, is the "lifeblood of civilization," and that current policies are causing fuel and commodity prices to spiral, potentially leading to widespread famine (0:02:16-0:04:42).

Military Risks: He disputes the administration's claims of military success, stating that only a fraction of Iran's capabilities have been disabled (0:09:55-0:10:25). He warns that any attempt to put boots on the ground to seize islands in the Persian Gulf is a "nightmare" operation that risks massive U.S. casualties and logistical failures (0:11:03-0:14:12).

Critique of Diplomatic Approach: Macgregor characterizes the administration's rhetoric as being heavily influenced by Netanyahu's talking points, which he believes demonizes Iran unnecessarily. He notes that the lack of legitimate diplomatic outreach is a missed opportunity for stability (0:01:14-0:01:57; 0:18:13-0:20:05).

NATO and Alliances: The Colonel critiques the role of NATO, suggesting it has been exploited for offensive purposes beyond its original defensive mission, and expresses skepticism regarding the effectiveness of mediators like Pakistan in the current climate (0:20:30-0:22:45)
