Desription:
Iran’s parliament has voted 400–0 to accelerate the country’s nuclear capabilities. Sources close to Tehran’s decision-making now tell Transition Protocol that a nuclear test on Iranian soil is being openly discussed at the highest levels — with a final decision expected within days if the Sunday Pakistan–Qatar mediation window collapses.
In this episode, veteran geopolitical analyst Pepe Escobar and former CIA analyst Larry Johnson join Zulfiqar Ali to map the critical week that could determine whether a U.S.–Iran war breaks out.
We examine:
- Trump’s reported personal phone calls to Field Marshal Asim Munir seeking an off-ramp
- The Pentagon’s Crisis Action Teams returning to full 24/7 war footing
- The arithmetic no one in Washington wants spoken aloud: Larry Johnson’s assessment that the U.S. Army currently holds only 56 units of its newest precision missile
We also break down why Iran believes it only needs to hit ten fixed targets — from Al Udeid to Erbil — while the United States faces roughly a thousand regenerating launch sites along the Strait of Hormuz; what an Iranian NPT withdrawal vote would actually signal; why Hezbollah now considers itself unbound; and the escalation card that has not yet been played: Bab el-Mandeb.
