Summary

The ghost wars for regional influence in the Gulf and the Levant between Israel and the US, Russia and Iran, continue but the long-established status quo has changed. In this episode of Operational Breakdown, we look at Iran's telegraphed yet effective and measured response to Israel's bombing of its Consulate in Damascus. We also talk about the logic of Deterrance, which is an important pillar of geo-political analysis. #israelpalestineconflict #ceasefire #decolonize #antiimperialism #globalaffairs #foreignaffairs #humanrights #israelhamaswar #counterterrorism #militaryindustrialcomplex #militaryintelligence #militaryintervention #uspolitics #bidenvstrump #independentjournalism #militaryhistory #veteran #veteransforpeace

0:00.0	And we're into the mainframe. Welcome to Colonial Outcast, your somewhat friendly anti-imperialist quasi-military at times podcast.
0:09.8	Today we are doing our regular operational breakdown segment surrounding Iran's missile and drone response this past Sunday.
0:16.5	We are recording and publishing this episode Monday, Tuesday, April 15th, the 16th, depending on where you live,
0:22.9	and we will be discussing the chain of events of the past two weeks and what this means for the future.
0:28.4	So it starts with Israel's bombing of an Iranian consulate in Damascus, on April 1st,
0:34.4	culminating in the latest unprecedented response by Iran of directly targeting Israeli military bases on Israeli soil.
0:42.7	Well, I mean, at least one of those air bases was in occupied Palestine.
0:46.8	But anyways, what does it mean? What will happen?
0:50.2	We are going to discuss all of that.
0:51.8	And if you're worried that World War III will happen as a result of this, you can relax, at least for right now. You will live another day. Fucking congratulations. So this is our largest panel yet on operational breakdown. So I'll introduce everybody. My name is Greg Stoker.

1:37.9	He's a former U.S. infantry officer who served in Afghanistan.
1:41.0	He's now living in Egypt and is kind of becoming our informal North African correspondent.
1:46.4	And you were you were there. I guess you actually saw some of the rockets launched towards Israel the other night.
1:53.3	It was in your Instagram stories. I, you know, I assume they were coming from Yemen.
1:59.2	Yeah. You could see from the town where I live along the Red Sea and the Sinai Peninsula,
2:06.6	some of the intercepts above Eilat from rockets or missiles that were launched,
2:13.6	either from Yemen or from somewhere in Iraq.
2:16.6	I did not see them myself, but some people in the town recorded them over the Gulf of Akaba.
2:24.0	And then I saw the same, I believe it was the same intercept, a video that was recorded from the city of A lot.
