Week 2 of the Iran War 2026 - DISMANTLING IRAN'S WAR MACHINE | RUSSIA & CHINA | IRAN'S NEW LEADERS

🔍 In this video:
* The Yazd and South Khorasan Strikes: How striking 800km inland proved the end of geographic sanctuary for the IRGC.
* Chabahar Air Dominance: Why the use of F/A-18 autocannons signals the total suppression of Iranian MANPADS.
* The Global Energy Shock: Analyzing Brent Crude’s peak at $120 and the 57% spike in Dutch TTF Gas.
* The Palace Guard Shift: The rise of the four IRGC hardliners and the decapitation of the "Bayt."

⚠️ Why this matters: This conflict serves as the first real-world validation of JADC2 "Precision and Speed" operations. As Iran’s industrial base is erased, the vulnerability of global supply chains—specifically the 20% of global LNG output from Qatar—creates a precedent for modern decapitation strikes.
