Description:
In this powerful interview, I sit down with Douglas Macgregor to break down the stunning failure of Operation Freedom and what it reveals about the United States’ strategy in Iran.
We dive into what went wrong on the battlefield, why Iran proved far more resilient than expected, and how rising oil prices and global instability are reshaping the geopolitical landscape. Colonel Macgregor shares his unfiltered perspective on whether the U.S. ever had a real endgame, how this conflict compares to past wars like Iraq and Afghanistan, and what the future of the Middle East could look like in the months ahead. This is a must-watch conversation on the shifting balance of global power and the consequences of a strategy that may have backfired.
