Middle East
Tim’s take
His baseline position is that the region is permanently, structurally unsolvable — the biting-the-cheek bit and the 'no peace, not GNA happen' prediction both boil the whole thing down to an endless self-reinjuring cycle that no book or documentary will fix 0:00 31:47. He treats every American intervention there as part of the same losing streak as Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya, and calls a potential Iran escalation another quagmire likely to end with China winning by default 47:44 24:26 53:29.
His stance flips depending on who's paying whom: he openly jokes that enough Saudi money would make him ignore any atrocity there, while also praising Trump's Gulf-states speech for framing a 'commerce not chaos' future as the only version of the region he actually likes 8:37 24:41. He's consistently suspicious of anyone selling war in the region as righteous, whether it's Biden's press-conference talking points or Fox pushing an Israel-Iran 'final battle' 23:01 24:26.
