00:00there are two things one is the kinetic war which you just mentioned yes sir please go ahead as of
00:07now the kinetic war in the kinetic war there are regional wars one is happening in russia ukraine
00:13that is happening in europe one is happening in middle east now these are regional wars
00:19as far as the tariff war is concerned now that is uh that has global implications so it that
00:25impacts everyone the instrument of wars have changed economic war is a instrument of war
00:33same is the case of information war social war technological war now all these are various
00:38facets of war and kinetic war is only one segment of the war so there is in non-kinetic domain it
00:45is a world war we are already in a world war three right uh or we are already in a world war we will
00:51not name one two or three but certainly we can call it as cold war 2.0 and a mix of cold war 1.0 and
00:572.0 that's the state in which we are as far as the non-kinetic war is concerned as far as the kinetic
01:03war is concerned it is still at regional level in a manner uh that there is a dynamics which is happening
01:08and as far as russia ukraine war is concerned i think we have spoken enough as far as the middle east is
01:14concerned uh i my senses as an analyst uh usa will not attack iran they will but they have said that
01:23israel will be leading the attacks and they are sending bombs they are they are already sending
01:27bombs they will have to they will have to control israel and they will continue to control israel
01:32because israel by itself does not have the capability to finish off uh the nuclear arsenal nuclear
01:41infrastructure of iran right they need the bombers and the kind of ammunition which is required is
01:48only with usa it is not there with israel number one number two factor is that as far as uh you see
01:56the capabilities wise if you have to finish off an organization right usa has been pounding hoodies for
02:03so many days now yeah so many people have been killed yeah but have the youth is finished the answer
02:09is no they cannot be finished till that time you actually have a ground assault is usa ready to
02:16get into a new war after having suffered in for 20 years in afghanistan my answer is no so trump has
02:24said that he will obliterate devastate everything that hoodies have he was he was saying all hell will
02:33broke will break will break on hamas broken but hamas has become from 30 000 to they have now their
02:39figure is now 40 000 uh kader so that is the as far as hamas is concerned similarly hoodies have not
02:46obliterated even today the shipping of uh israel connected shipping uh is still in danger they cannot
02:55cross red sea yeah because who is attacked them so basically at the end of the day what you say
03:02and what you actually we are able to capable of doing see no terrorist organization no country can
03:07be obliterated unless you launch a ground assault just by aerial campaign uh nobody is going to uh
03:15shall i say raise his hands who these are not going to raise his hamas has not raised raised their hands
03:20nobody raised their hand uh by only by air assault so by air assault alone you can't do anything
03:27uh so there is a problem there and in my opinion a usa will not like to get involved in middle east once
03:34again uh after getting involved earlier in fact they are trying to now pull back certain troops from syria
03:40and to be employed elsewhere because their own um shall i say reserves are down uh their own manpower is
03:47down uh their own expenses have increased because at the end of the day uh they are themselves now
03:53uh asking within uh even trump is asking himself as to with 900 billion dollars which we are spending
03:59which is more than the next six companies put together what are we achieving uh virtually nothing
04:05and china is growing they are not spending money they are not fighting with anybody and they are
04:09growing leaps and bounds so therefore there is a there is a cost to pay if you get into a war and that
04:16cost is disastrous so therefore maga dream will be out of the window if he gets into a war with iran so
04:23in my opinion maximum pressure will be put and uh i think iranians will be convinced that you don't
04:29make a bomb and that somehow directly indirectly whichever way some kind of deal will be stuck and
04:36even if it is not that it will be wrong like that that's what is my we really we really hope there
04:41is there is no direct war between israel and iran subscribe to one india and never miss an update
