U.S. ABANDONING The Persian Gulf!
About this episode
Jimmy Dore and former CIA analyst Larry Johnson discuss the implications of U.S. military damage in the Persian Gulf and its effects on regional security and political divisions in the U.S.
Former CIA analyst Larry Johnson joins Jimmy to argue that damage to U.S. military installations in the Persian Gulf has prompted the Pentagon to reconsider its long-standing military presence in the region, including whether damaged bases should be rebuilt. The two believe the conflict has weakened U.S. influence with Gulf states, which as a result will increasingly seek regional security arrangements independent of Washington, citing a proposed Saudi-Turkish-Pakistani security agreement as an example. The discussion shifts to growing political divisions in the United States over support for Israel, with both Jimmy and Larry suggesting the issue could fracture the Republican Party and contribute to the emergence of a new political movement. The segment compares this potential realignment to the collapse of the Whig Party in the 1850s and argues that prominent former Trump allies are increasingly breaking with him over U.S. policy toward Israel.
