The moment America withdraws, Iran holds Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates hostage, and they are forced to sell in other currencies or gold, because they will not release the Strait of Hormuz. This dissolves the petrodollar.

 Ok this pretty much explains it.  You believe in some alternate outcome that is highly unrealistic.  

 Again, Jiang is far less than 100% accurate, and the outcome you describe is proof, and will be further proof once it does not happen.

 That won't result in a collapse of the US economy.  It certainly won't result with Iran invading the US.

 Jiang is inaccurate in many of his assessments and predictions.  he is far from 100% accurate.

There are many economists and experts in England, Germany, and France who contradict you.

 Yes I would like to see those.  I haven't seen any analysis from experts that say the US will collapse or Iran will invade it.



Jiang is not my only source and he encourages critical thinking, he is not someone who imposes his opinion.

 He is also not 100% accurate as you claim.

 While I appreciate the videos I don't consider single source podcast to be "experts" in the field.

 The US has a long way to go to be solely dependent on Iran for the US economy to exist.  This argument relies on oil, and only oil that Iran has the ability to create a long-term restriction on.

 The US economy however is quite flexible in regard to independence.  There is no reason to think that the US infrastructure would collapse in upon itself due to a dependency on foreign oil.

 Below is an example of data collected and analyzed by hundreds of economists.  I choose their assessments over the podcast viewpoints of a few people.

 As you can see about 3% of US utilized oil goes through the Straight of Hormuz.  Iranian impact has more to do with trying to leverage Asian/Middle East markets, without including USD as the medium of purchase.  But the US can still get oil to those locations.  

 Also the US economy exports and imports more than oil, which should be the obvious reason why the closing of one waterway could not possibly end the US economy plummeting it into dissolution ready for Iran to invade.  That's nonsense.

I don’t understand you zeven. I remember numerous times you’ve highlighted the likelihood of one calamity occurring due to an alignment of events yet so far, none of these doomsday predictions have occurred. And it’s not just that they haven’t occurred, they’ve not even been remotely close.

Yet you’re doing it again. Why? Ask yourself why.  

Assuming all six of those things begin to occur, do you think that US isn’t going to respond in someway? Do you think the citizens of the US (which are the de facto engine behind the economy) aren’t going to adjust in someway to mitigate any consequence? The price of gas has increased recently, but there’s no significant difference in every day life here.

You’re assuming the economy is like a game of chess. You trap someone and it appears they have no space to move to, but this isn’t chess. The economy, the people behind the economy, have an almost unlimited number of moves, but you can’t see the spaces.

In fact, it’s better to think of it as if the spaces have never even been created yet. People think up new spaces as they go along and they move there. Economics are alive, and moving in ways that don’t follow patterns.

Challenge yourself to think broader, you’ve narrowed your vision.

To web.

Speaking of narrow, the section where tankers with a large draft can pass through is only 4.4 miles wide.
In normal circumstances, the passage through the Strait of Hormuz was already grim; it is always a bit foggy there, and death threats came in constantly over the ship's radio. Speedboats would sail right up to you; you were not safe as a crew member. Now, with modern warfare, underwater missiles, and drones and sea mines on the water, in the water, and on the seabed, passage is impossible.

I come from a family of sailors, and you have no idea how easy a target you are. That is why Iran can hit the world economy so easily. It doesn't matter how many warships you station there. Trump was completely unaware of this.

I have spoken before about the Great Shaking and the Parivartan, the shift in consciousness. The Great Shaking is not a sudden earthquake or anything like that. It is the escalation of conflicts in the world and the outbreak of wars. We see the unrest in the world growing annually.

It is caused by the fact that we are trapped in our thinking; I have explained this many times. We bring it upon ourselves and cause it ourselves.

It has already happened to many civilizations on Earth; just look at the pyramids, which were not built by the Egyptians.
However, this time in time and space, it is different.

The situation will only worsen. What is needed to make you doubt your thinking? You can say that Muslims are religious fanatics, but we all cling to thinking in an even more fanatical way.

This fanatical belief in thoughts goes so far that people even want genocide and actively preach this as the best method.I have been to Auschwitz and seen what that looked like and where identified thinking can lead. extermination camps larger than you can see with the naked eye.

These are not just your thoughts alone. Many people think this, and this creates an enormously powerful field. What you see happening in Iran now is a direct consequence of it, as you may have noticed. The vast majority of humanity is completely unaware of an alternative. But it definitely exists, and that is why I always talked about it.

I stopped doing that recently, because it was drawn into discussion.
And the "alternative" is not something to debate.
I was trying to inspire. That it does not work and that people misinterpret it as a prophecy of doom is understandable.

On the other hand, you only have to look at the news to see that things don't look good.

Doing business and political intervention are already being enforced militarily.

I was 100% certain that Trump would become president again, and I’ve only known Jiang on YouTube for about half a year or so.
I am also certain that unrest in the world will increase; how far that will go depends on the spiritual evolution of humanity.

How do I know that? I knew an enlightened woman; I spent a lot of time with her. She was American; I once shared a YouTube video of hers here. And I believe it was you who thought it was all incoherent drivel. I can assure you that she was a very wise and profound soul, a yogi who never said anything without purpose, and she always spoke from love.

I am becoming a bit wiser myself, if you understand what I mean.
Maybe it was out of spiritual arrogance that I shared it, who knows?

I think you’re focusing too much on the platform rather than the content.

Information isn’t automatically unreliable just because it’s on YouTube, it depends on the source, the evidence, and how it’s verified. There are experts who share valuable insights there, just as there are professionals who get things wrong.

 I agree.  which is why I use large data sets as I have shown here for years.

 There is nothing wrong with YouTube in general.  I am specifically saying the information you are providinf, like Jiang, is literally a zero consequence environment.  Which is why Jiang and others can be wrong over and over and nobody cares.



If you think something I said is incorrect, point it out specifically so we can discuss it.

 Jiang is highly accurate.  He isn't.  He provides an ambiguous approach to outcomes.  

 
There is no exit strategy, because there is simply no way back. This is not Iraq, Venezuela, or Libya; this is a full scale war that America must win.

 I disagree.  I think the US can disengage without ending the petrodollar USD resulting in the economic collapse of the US where Iran takes over.

 The US will adjust, just as it did when the apocalyptic predictions of US manufacturing going overseas.  The US dollar was going to disappear then, we were going to be a 3rd world country and Mexico was going to take over.
