Okay, we are live with Alexander Mercuris and with us on the Duran.

We have the one and only Larry Johnson.

Larry, great to have you back on the Duran.

Where can people follow your work, though I am sure everyone is following your work,

but just in case there's one or two people out there.

Sure. Sonar21.com or Larry C. Johnson at Substack.

I will have those as a link in the description box down below, as well as a pinned comment.

When the live stream concludes, a quick shout out to everyone that is watching us on odyssey on

rumble youtube and our durand community the durand dot locals.com and a thank you to our moderators

on youtube as well thank you for everything that you do. Larry, Alexander, let's talk about

what is happening in Iran. The floor is yours. Well, indeed, and no one better to discuss it with

and Larry. Can I just say that I think Larry has been doing an absolutely incredible job over these last

difficult weeks since the conflict began. By the way, he was already doing a brilliant job

preparing us for what would happen during the war before it began to. I mean, many, many comments, much discussion on his invaluable blog,

Sona 21, which I go to every day, all the time, as people who follow my channel, will be well aware.

So, we are very privileged to have this discussion with Larry today. And I get to say in

advance, I think things are turning up pretty much exactly as Larry said they would. If the United

States, if Trump was unwise enough to begin a war, expectations that the regime, as they call it, in Washington

would collapse, would prove displaced.

Expectations that Iran had no air defense system would prove rapidly wrong.

Expectations that Iran had exhausted its missile and drone arsenals would prove rapidly wrong.

Expectations that Hezbollah and the other militias in the Middle East had been exhausted or drained of resources would prove completely wrong.
