Grim debunks an Israeli-sourced claim that this is secretly a war about China's oil imports from Iran, then discusses false reports of a Kurdish invasion of Iran and the history of the US repeatedly betraying Kurdish allies.
- Israeli analyst argues the US war on Iran is actually about China, not Israel.
- Tim breaks down why the China argument falls apart: Iran's oil sales are a small percentage of Chinese imports.
- Even after regime change, a new Iranian government would still sell oil to China anyway.
- Reports claimed Kurdish troops with special forces were sent into Iran already.
- The false invasion story appeared to be leaked by Israel.
- A Kurdish base inside Iraq was then bombed, possibly by Iran believing the fake reports or Israel trying to provoke action.
- In 1991, the US told Kurds to rise up against Saddam, then abandoned them to be massacred.
- The US later supported Kurds in Syria against ISIS.
