-Contrasting the failed Iran war with Trump’s successful invasion of Venezuela
-How ironically this war would be less likely under an establishment president
-The absurdity of Trump’s statements and lack of any coherent plans

-Why Constantin considers the term “regime” to be propaganda

-How a fertilizer shortage will cause a global famine that will cause a massive refugee crisis into Europe
Nigeria now has more births than all of Europe, including Russia
-Trump’s immigration policy of performative cruelty without deporting that many people
-How America will shift from being a world power to a regional power in the Western Hemisphere
-The Russia/Ukraine war; Russia as the aggressor from the non-aggression principle vs the argument that Russia’s geopolitical sphere was threatened
-Revisiting the past when Iran offered an olive branch to the US after 9/11
-How Obama’s Iran nuclear deal was successful, which Trump ripped up, discrediting diplomatic trust in the US

-The impact of Trump and the war on Europe’s politics, and how Germany’s AFD is successfully distancing themselves from Trump
-An accelerationist case in favor of Trump weakening American imperialism and ending the American establishment’s soft power
-How radical Islam is primarily a Sunni, not Shia, problem (eg. Sunni extremist iconoclasm)
-How Islamophobia detracts from the culpability of Western elites
-Michel Houellebecq’s prophetic novel, Submission, about an Islamic takeover of France, which is ambiguous about whether that is a good or bad thing
-How remigration is unworkable and ethnopluralism as an alternative
-The Indo-Aryan connection between Iranians and Europeans, and remnants of pre-Islamic paganism in Iran
-How Israel was semi sane when it was more Ashkenazi, thus closer to Europe, and how it is just becoming another Middle Eastern country
