Insights
1UN Accusations of Israeli War Crimes and Genocide
A UN report details the killing of a 14-year-old boy in Khan Younis, left to bleed for 45 minutes, and alleges that Israel deliberately targets Palestinian children to weaken demographic vitality. The report concludes Israeli authorities are responsible for crimes against humanity and war crimes, substantiating findings of genocide.
The UN report states, 'Every international legal norm has been violated by the actions of the Israeli authorities towards Palestinian children.' The host and guest compare Israel's actions to Nazi atrocities.
2Israel's Potential Yemen Offensive and Regional Retaliation
Israeli Channel 14 reported the defense establishment is preparing for military operations against Houthis in Yemen. Guest Larry Johnson asserts there's no current justification but predicts that any such attack would be met with significant Yemeni retaliation, causing substantial damage to Israel.
Larry Johnson states, 'The Yemenes will fight back and in the fight back they will be causing some significant damage to Israel and you know is again it's a case of Israel biting off more than it could chew.'
3Emergence of a New Middle East Security Architecture
Pakistan has become a key broker in establishing a new regional security framework. After initial tensions, Pakistan provided intelligence to Iran to prevent assassinations and intervened in diplomatic talks. Pakistan convened a meeting with foreign ministers of Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey to discuss this new architecture, positioning itself as an honest broker no longer aligned with US interests.
Larry Johnson notes, 'Pakistan is an honest broker in this deal and it is no longer willing to carry water for the United States and that it is quite serious and sincere about both helping Iran survive but in addition to surviving creating a new security architecture that will protect not just Iran but Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Egypt.'
4Disruption of Strait of Hormuz and True Oil Prices
Despite official reports of falling oil prices, marine traffic shows few ships entering the Strait of Hormuz, with many leaving. This is attributed to mines and the need for extensive cleaning of idle tankers. The guest claims actual oil prices at the dock are around $106 per barrel, significantly higher than reported figures, with most available oil going to China and Asia, not the US.
Larry Johnson states, 'I only see one ship that's inbound... Everybody else is heading out. So, that tells you right there the the tankers thought that they could get all this oil... That's not happening.' He adds, 'I just saw a stat one a figure from a database $106 right now.'
5US Casualties in Middle East Conflicts
Reports from CBS News indicate a cover-up of US military casualties, with more soldiers wounded in a March 1st Iranian drone strike than initially disclosed. The guest suggests that these leaks might be an incentive to build opposition to continued US involvement in the war.
Larry Johnson states, 'I think they've been covering up a lot of casualties. That's my impression.' He adds, 'they can't keep it covered up forever. And you know, they may even have an incentive now to leak it to build more opposition to staying involved with the war.'
Lessons
- Monitor reports from international bodies like the UN regarding human rights and war crimes in conflict zones to gain alternative perspectives on geopolitical events.
- Analyze the shifting alliances and emerging security architectures in the Middle East, particularly the roles of Pakistan, Iran, and other regional powers, to understand potential impacts on global stability.
- Track real-time marine traffic and independent energy market analyses for the Strait of Hormuz to get a more accurate picture of global oil supply and pricing dynamics, rather than relying solely on mainstream reports.
