Jacob Shapiro: U.S. Bombs Iran, Now What? — Trump's Gamble, WW3 Fears & A Global Power Shift
Wealthion - Be Financially Resilient
Intro
This chapter explores the recent military actions by the U.S. against Iran and ongoing global conflicts, focusing on the implications for international stability. It delves into the complexities of U.S. foreign policy regarding Iran and the possible leadership changes within the country.
After the U.S. bombed Iran’s nuclear facilities last Saturday, many fear the outbreak of World War III. But geopolitical strategist Jacob Shapiro says something more dangerous may be unfolding: U.S. unpredictability is accelerating global realignment, weakening alliances, and fueling the decline of the dollar.
In this must-watch interview with Maggie Lake, Jacob breaks down:
- Trump’s decision to strike Iran: calculated gamble or global liability?
- Why China and Russia aren’t coming to Iran’s
- How Iran’s internal chaos could backfire, or spark revolution
- What China really wants, and how it plans to get it without war
- Why you shouldn’t trade geopolitics, but what risks to watch
- The growing debt crisis and weakening U.S. financial leadership
- The greatest underappreciated threat facing the West right now
