Fmr. CIA analyst Larry Johnson straight-up calls it an Israeli false flag to throw shade on the talks and drive a wedge between Qatar and Iran.
Qatar’s foreign minister walks right past JD Vance, hugs Pakistan’s PM instead, skips the photo op, and leaves Vance hanging. Clear snub on camera.
Larry calls it “not a love fest.” Trump’s social media threats to kill Iranian negotiators basically torched the MOU on day one.
Iranians walked out. Larry gets it; it's hard to negotiate after death threats.
U.S. strategic petroleum reserve sits at roughly 340 million barrels. Larry walks through the math: diesel shortages are coming fast, forcing a real guns-or-butter choice for the military and supply chains within weeks
His general take: Iran came out stronger: deeper Russia/China ties, renminbi oil money, missiles intact
Thank you Larry for that interview!
