What You Aren't Being Told About the War in Iran - Paul Warburg



The United States' and Israel's war against Iran is reaching a crucial stage that could literally decide the future of the entire Middle East. Already, we're seeing the United States backtrack on several things. The U.S. is now calling on their allies for help in the Strait of Hormuz - something that just weeks ago they said they didn't need. But it's not the only sign of stress. Politically, the war has been damaging for Donald Trump, and there are now questions about how the war will end. Will Trump take an escape hatch and declare an early end to the war, or will the conflict drag on? In this video I explain how, whatever path Trump chooses, the path to final victory is nowhere near, and is indeed just beginning.
