 I think so, Rickland. What on earth do you mean? How do you classify proxy and allies? Are you implying the Houthis can say no to your... Yeah, 100% the Houthis can say no to the Iranians. 100% Rickland. The Houthis? Yemen? Iran does not dictate to them what they must do. They don't, right? Ukraine is a proxy war. Ukraine does exactly what the United States tells them to do. And the fucking story. All that bullshit that you hear. Oh, the Ukrainians made their own decisions of what was happening, what they were going to do. Bullshit. Bullshit from day one, from 2014 coup. It was the United States that was dictating what was going to happen in Ukraine. Newland phone call on the Maidan coup saying fuck the EU and deciding who's going to become the leader in Ukraine. From day one, United States has been dictating exactly what's going to happen with Ukraine and what they're going to do. That's a proxy. Iran does not have the power over Yemen. Yemen does what Yemen wants to do. Iran will support them if they agree with it. Iran will give them technology. Iran will help them build their underground bases and build missiles and stuff like this. But Iran does not tell them what to do. That's the difference between allies and proxies, right? It has north of Israel, Hezbollah. Hezbollah does what Hezbollah wants. But Iran has way more influence with Hezbollah than Iran has with Yemen, right? So how do you know the Iranians aren't dictating? Because they're not. They're not. They never have. Iran has never dictated to any of its allies what they must do. They have meetings. They may disagree. Some may do or not. That being said, if Iran is attacked, if Iran is attacked, this whole region will explode. Every single Iranian ally that they have will attack every Western country or any individuals, companies, countries that are allied with the Western world, okay? So Iran doesn't dictate what their allies must do, but they have sort of an understanding that if Iran is attacked, this whole region explodes. The whole world explodes, really. That's sort of the understanding I've had for the longest time, right? For the longest time. Doesn't Iran have a visa? Not going to end well. Not going to end well. Rickland, you're not making sense. Countries do things the US doesn't want them to do all the time. Why do you call them proxies if that's the criteria you're using? Not on this level. Okay. What has Ukraine done in the last 10 years that goes, it's not, it's something that they only decided to do. It wasn't dictated by the United States. Initially, in the West, it was saying, oh, we told Ukraine, we gave them weapons. Initially, they said that we're only going to send helmets and guns and tanks and this and this and then long range rockets, right? And meanwhile, they've been coming out and saying, Ukraine is firing into Russia without our approval. We never told Ukraine to fire into deep into Russia to attack Moscow. We never did, right? Meanwhile, we get audio of generals, German generals talking about how they're going to help Ukraine to blow up bridges. Right? That's the difference. That's the difference. The fact that CIA is the one behind the coup in Ukraine. Yeah, CIA did the coup in 2014. Newland was handing out cookies. John McCain was there in the streets, handing out money
