    There is No Master Plan: Is the US Playing 1D Chess to Maintain the Petro-Dollar?

    In this episode of Colonial Outcasts, we’re joined by Elina Xenophontos to break down one of the biggest narratives circulating right now: that the United States is executing some kind of grand strategy to preserve the petro-dollar through global energy blockades, military escalation, and economic warfare. We’re here to challenge that idea. From the escalating tensions with Iran to the deployment of additional carrier strike groups, the so-called “blockade,” and ongoing threats of further military action, we take a hard look at what’s actually happening—and whether any of it resembles a coherent long-term plan.Is this 4D chess… or something much simpler? We discuss:The reality behind the US “blockade” of Iran Why the petro-dollar “master plan” theory doesn’t hold up Military escalation and contradictions in US strategy The role of chaos, miscalculation, and short-term decision making How online narratives can overestimate state competence If you’ve been hearing that everything is part of a carefully orchestrated imperial strategy—this episode is for you.

So we’re about 5 weeks into the most unpopular war in US history with this being the first war ever where the majority of Americans are consciously siding with the nations we’re attacking. After 3 years of Genocide in Gaza, the planet has experienced a level moral cohesion that is unprecedented. This, combined with the revelations coming out of the Epstein files, has set the stage for a level of global solidarity against a common enemy that we have never seen.Iran and Lebanon have shifted the power dynamics through their strategic operations and messaging to the world and in doing so have opened the floodgates of resistance in the region that united Sunni, Shia, Christian and secular, despite the Wahabi and sectarian psyops working overtime to divide. We discuss this unity and the failure of imperial manipulations in the region with a formidable panel of gifted and determined voices from Lebanon and Palestine.Soha Yassine is a guerrilla journalist and narrative podcaster whose work inside the Lebanese hip hop scene — through Safe House Travel Diary — documents resistance, identity, and survival on the ground. She holds a BA in World Religions and an MA in Islamic Studies, with a background in communications for international NGOs.

    War Abroad, Division at Home—Can Anyone Be Reached Before the End Times? (w/ Dr. Hilary Agro)

    This week felt like a turning point. While most headlines focus on rising tensions with Iran and the possibility of wider conflict, a series of U.S. military operations—reportedly including “Operation Epic Fury” and “Operation Total Extermination”—are expanding across multiple regions with barely any public scrutiny. From strikes in the Caribbean to escalating actions near the Colombia–Ecuador border, the scope of what’s happening right now is bigger than most people realize.At the same time, we’re watching the national security state expand at home—ICE presence in airports, increasing surveillance, and political rhetoric that feels more extreme by the day. And somehow, we’re told all of this is for our benefit. Then we’re joined by Dr. Hilary Agro—anthropologist, organizer, and abolitionist educator—to tackle a question that feels more urgent than ever:Can people with harmful or contradictory political beliefs actually change?We talk about:- Why organizing the working class means engaging with people you disagree with- The psychology of political identity and belief formation- Why some people are open to change—and others aren’t- The challenges of bridging divides in an era of polarization- What it actually takes to build movements rooted in collective care and liberationIf we’re serious about building a better world, we have to figure out how to reach people—not just write them off.

    Narrative Control: Losing in Iran and the Consent Manufacturing Loop w/ Dr. Keene-Montgomery

    The war isn't going well for the United States. Let's talk with anthropologist Dr. Katie Keene-Montgomery about how and why people are still trapped in this absurd narrative. Nobody exists outside of propaganda. Here are the six layers of narrative production for reference: 1. Economic interests that require a threat environment to stay profitable 2. Elite networks where consensus forms before any public debate 3. Funded think tanks that convert that consensus into expert opinion 4. Official language and legal designations that install the frame 5. Media systems that distribute it as neutral coverage 6. Public opinion polling that returns the result as democratic mandate 7. Repeat. This is continuous and cyclical. You can follow Katie here, new to youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@Keene-Montgomery

    The Iran War is Going Worse Than You Think: Casualties, Quagmires and GCC Complicity

    Hi guys! It’s Wednesday and the War against Iran is going so well that US Regime Media has just dropped the new talking point to all its local subsidiaries - What’ll it be this time? "Short term pain for long term gain." We discuss the regional chess board and the global chess board, the fight for the petrodollar, and the complicity of the Gulf States in the war against Iran.

    War Escalates: The Evangelical Role, Gulf Deception, and NATO's Cyprus Buildup

    The People Pushing War With Iran Believe the World Is EndingSo, this morning President Trump posted to social media that there “will be no deal with Iran except UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER! After that, and the selection of a GREAT & ACCEPTABLE Leader(s), we, and many of our wonderful and very brave allies and partners, will work tirelessly to bring Iran back from the brink of destruction.” He signed off with “MIGA!,” for “make Iran great again.”So the dimensions of this conflict have certainly expanded, and now involves over 17 different countries and far more complexity than the Invasion of Iraq - “We are in it Now” says senator Elisa Slotkin, former CIA case officer, when questioned today about approving additional defense funding to extend military operations against Iran for another Hundred Days. All while Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, and Kuwait are considering canceling or reviewing contracts and investment commitments with the U.S. due to mounting economic strain and insecurity caused by the ongoing war with Iran. This potential move aims to pressure the Trump administration to halt the conflict, as Gulf officials express frustration over not being warned about attacks and feeling unprotected.Trump has gutted the state department, many strategic state department postings in region remain unoccupied, USAID, which would usually be working on shaping a post conflict enviroment is not longer really a thing and US bases and Israeli cities have been getting hit. And despite the media blackout a ton of damage is being done to US assets, bases, and the war is not going well. But that’s okay because a lot of evangelical extremists in the WH are actually not trying to live in a better world or fix the environment, or improve your material conditions, because they believe they are living in a time of revelatory prophecy and we are nearing the end of human history anyways.
