Description:
Geopolitical analyst Ben Norton joins the show to discuss Iran's brutal destruction of the US's fighter jet arsenal and why the US Navy is now in retreat amid a spiraling oil shock.
Description:
Iran has deployed new Electro-Optical missiles (Qassem Bassir), claiming direct hits on US warships, while a barrage of 40+ ballistic missiles hit American equipment, F-15 fighter jets & Black Hawk Helicopters stationed at bases in Jordan.
Plus, Israeli media are in meltdown over Yemen’s Armed Forces achieving a major victory by capturing the entire West Coast of their country and securing the Bab al-Mandab Strait.
The corporate media is actively covering up this massive defeat for American imperialism in the West Asia. Robert Inlakesh brings you the facts the corporate media refuses to air.
Robert also takes a look at Netanyahu's fatal inaction regarding the Oct 7 warnings.
Description:
Iran says its forces recovered a U.S.-operated underwater drone at the Strait of Hormuz. The United States says the Anduril Dive-LD malfunctioned during a survey mission. In this episode, defence analyst Pravin Sawhney joins Zulfiqar Ali to explain what the vehicle can do, why its 6,000-metre operating depth and roughly 10-day endurance matter, and what the incident may reveal about the underwater contest around the world’s most important oil chokepoint.
The discussion also examines Iran’s confirmed ballistic-missile launches toward a U.S. aircraft carrier and destroyer, Tehran’s newly announced maritime restricted zone, the Iran–Oman shipping corridor, the Pakistan–Saudi Arabia–Türkiye defence framework, the Yemen escalation and the approaching BRICS summit in New Delhi. Damage claims, casualty reports and private-source assertions are identified as disputed or unverified rather than presented as settled fact.

Description:
Lt. Col. Daniel Davis and former National Counterterrorism Center director Joe Kent discuss overnight Iranian medium-range ballistic missile strikes, possibly with cluster munitions, on U.S. bases in Jordan.
Kent says he has not seen confirmed U.S. killed in action from that wave, but argues troops and ships still in range are being used as tripwires. Davis says official casualty language — including “everyone is accounted for” — no longer tells the public who is wounded or dead, and that U.S. personnel have been dispersed into civilian hotels that then become targets.
Trump, speaking on the tarmac, says the United States has knocked out about nine Iranian tankers and that the war will end after the midterms. Kent and Davis both reject waiting until November: Kent warns of pressure toward a tactical nuclear strike on a site such as Pickaxe Mountain; Davis calls that option unworkable and likely to push Iran to a bomb while isolating Washington. They also flag Saudi strikes on the Houthis and reports that Pakistan is weighing involvement under the Mecca Defense Pact. Kent’s close: leave militarily and use sanctions relief; staying in range only boxes the White House into a bigger war.
Description:
Pakistan is the latest country to hit back after the White House threatened countries who trade with Iran. China has already said it won’t be taking orders from America. So is this another failed bid by Donald Trump to bend Iran and its backers to his will?
Or could this actually work? Several senior Iranian leaders have recently acknowledged the economic pain that the country and its people are feeling.
On this episode of The Fourcast, Krishnan Guru-Murthy speaks to Mohammed Marandi, a professor at Tehran University and a former adviser to Iran’s nuclear negotiating team to get a view from inside Iran.
