Hormuz Crisis "Only Going to Get More Horrific Before It Gets Any Better": Prof. Laleh Khalili

What marvellous coverage! Thank you for discussing so many issues that are not adequately being addressed elsewhere. 💜 Appreciation from Australia.

The best case is another pause that buys time without resolving anything, and the worst case is a sequence of events that moves faster than human decision-making can track. The variable at the centre of it is a man whose inner state at this precise moment nobody can read — not his advisers, not his allies, not his adversaries, and perhaps not himself. That is a genuinely terrifying place for the world to be.

Wow! Professor Khalili spoke to all of my questions and suspicions and even addressed things I hadn't yet thought of. It's all horrifying but somehow I feel calmer.
