Hello everybody welcome back to Rev Left Radio. So for today's episode I just

wanted to hop on here and do a sort of solo breakdown of just some major events

going on. I have a lot of thoughts in my head I'm sure many of you do.

We see fires popping up as it were all around the world.

Several major events seem to be occurring at once.

Things seem to be spiraling toward some sort of escalation.

There's domestic turmoil in many countries, geopolitical turmoil in many countries,

a regional war, the possibility of a regional war on the horizon.

I mean depending on your definition we could say that we're already in a regional

war based on the fact that Israel is bombing all of its neighbors conducting a

genocide, the. is spending hundreds, you know, tens of billions of dollars just positioning their incredibly expensive warships and all the staffing and supplying of those ships all around the region in order to

deter an Iranian attack and to help Israel as Israel purposefully, willingly, and

consciously escalates in such a manner that it is trying to drag in the United States.

There is a sort of political material basis for this in Israeli society and there's a personal

psychological psychopathic motivation on behalf of Netanyahu.

I've long warned against any attempts to blame this on Netnahoo as such as it's a way of individualizing a systematic problem. I mean Israeli apartheid and settler colonialism is the problem no matter who's steering the bus.

But Netn Yahoo in particular has a deeply personal vested interest to keep this war going.

And there is something about the psychology of old

war-mongering men as they get up there in years,

and they get closer to their own death.

For some of them, there is a sort of psychological to their own death.

For some of them there is a sort of psychological apocalypticism that takes over.
