now with former pentagon official, michael maloof, michael, given that explanation from washington that the u. s. military struggle to identify enemy drones. how realistic is all this? talk about the expansion of the conflict in the middle east as well. the it's, it's quite plausible that there was a, a mis identification and that said that the expansion is something that we're digging ourselves into and even greater whole. ready and, and as a consequence, and not realizing, not looking at the reality of why we're even there any longer, why we need to be there any longer. i think that this needs to be taken into serious account because we are getting more, more into involved in, in a potential conflict through the, with the region. and not surprisingly, countries such as, yeah. and then even iran have economic leverage over the west, over the united states by shutting off those water excess waves in the red sea and, and in the persian gulf. so there's a lot at stake here, and this could bring down this could cause the world depression. if this, if this were to occur. and it's clear that

michael maloof and conversation with archie. now the us on the rock, the upheld a fresh round of talks us by pushes for washington to end its military presence in the gold state. however, when grilled by journalists of pentagon representative between the withdrawal is not actually on the agenda. you sent the page from c meetings or the shaping the withdrawal of us for to 0. is that because it's been mutually agreed upon with the government not to discuss this issue, or is it because the u. s. is not willing to discuss this request. and the purpose of these meetings, the rocky demand for a solid withdrawal came after a series of american. the attacks on arm grips in the country. washington claims it was targeting militants linked to around all about this by the declaration by the us. back in 2021. started to come by mission in iraq. i come to an end around $2500.00 american for its still remain in the country. we heard from iraqi parliament member, so it's outside the who says that talks unwinding done. america's military presenc

michael maloof is a former senior pentagon official says us domestic and foreign policy have both become deadlock due to a rational decision making. it is totally irrational. it's a, it's a gut reaction. it's, it's all reactionary. we're not operating as we should from a strategic plan. people like lindsey graham and other us senators, calling in for direct kids on to ron ron. what's the point where do you want to do? you want to create a conflagration that's going to be world wide. we really need some adults in this room and, and they're nowhere to be found. and, and i think that this policy that we have right now, we're remaining in iraq and, and illegally in syria, has got to change immediately. and you know, it's not just a broad, but the us is also facing many challenges domestically live in the texas border are stand off, for example, is the us government's struggling to which, which of these issues to take as priority as well as try the level to to it's trying to come up with legislation that's supposed to accommodate the border in the us binding, i think says some kind of new leg

we also heard from michael maloof for my senior, a security policy on the list at the pentagon. he says the strikes were retaliatory and that israel is benefiting from the escalation. and then all for some time that the israelis have a base up there for training and what have you. and that's what they were aiming, that the concern that they allegation from the i r g c. as i understand it, is that the people who did the attacks in carmen in iran, on the anniversary, the 4th anniversary as well. the depth of the general sort of money, what and who was killed assassinated by americans. this is a quickly becoming an escal atory situation. and this is, of course, is what made, you know, who wanted he wanted the united states involved. he wanted the united states to do with military operations for it if it's the best and, and this, this, once again, is getting us involved in a and, and, and creating a far larger and expand of war. that'll make it, that will put it up to 5 front just within this particular war. that if you're run, it's going to get more engaged as the i r g c a, sugges

i michael maloof is a former senior security policy analyst and the office for the secretary of defense for etc. and michael, thanks very much. thank you roy, thank you. well, palm is in for on. so digging in when it comes to the dispute with the government, the protests continue to grow without even more roads and major highways being blocked by a more attractive demonstrators have inviting tie as unfolding for the president to respond to that demo us farms are unhappy with the rising taxation and costs that are basically making that businesses unprofitable and the newly appointed 5 minutes to a gap gail, a 1000. so to appease fall and most during a recent visit to the south of the country. so if you wanted to send a message and i've received a loud and clear, you have decided to place agriculture above everything else. we're going to put an end to the reform, a tax increase where the state gains nothing. and on top of that stuff is losses. the 1st step is that we're going to increase what was planned in terms of compensation for veterinary expenses. we're putting a budget of 50000000
