Description
The math of the American Empire is no longer adding up.
While Washington markets "Project Freedom" as a humanitarian success, the reality on the water in the Strait of Hormuz tells a much darker story. From the piers of Piraeus to the burning oil zones of Fujairah, the US Navy is currently engaged in a war of attrition it cannot win—spending million-dollar missiles to swat down two-thousand-dollar drones.
In this video, we move past the PR spin and look at the forensic math of why the global supply chain is fracturing. When a billion-dollar destroyer is required just to move two merchant ships, the route is already effectively closed. We explore why the "detour" is on fire, why Europe is looking for a divorce from American security, and what Admiral McRaven’s warning actually meant for the future of the global economy.
