The U.S. Enters War with Iran – More War Monday | The Rob Maness Show EP 541
A new dawn broke over the world this morning as the United States appears to be embarked on an attempt to re-establish conventional deterrence by striking the most highly valued targets of our long-term enemy Iran, deep in the heart of enemy territory. The mission was conducted flawlessly from the perspective of the U.S. military, but the larger questions remain: what will be the unintended consequences of America’s actions? Were Iran’s nuclear capabilities destroyed completely so they can never have a nuclear weapon? What will be our next steps? Is a regime change possible by the Iran...

Giving Peace A Chance or More War? | The Rob Maness Show EP 519
The emerging three front world war has shifted ever so slowly toward peace but even the most positive of us are highly skeptical we’ll get to a full peace any time soon.

Is this a good sign is one of the big questi...

But that is the true context of the Russia-Ukraine war, NATO expansion was always our plan, to include Ukraine, and Russia was never going to accept that eventuality.

General Kellogg does a have a plan, but it seems it will take much longer to get Russia to agree with the proposal, which frankly, seems like a non-starter on its face and key parts...
