He argues that the conflict risks spiraling into a much wider regional, or even global, war, while highlighting the long history of U.S. intervention in Iran dating back to the 1953 CIA-backed coup. “This is a major war,” explains Becker, “If you had asked people in 1913 — the year before World War I started, a war that took 20 million lives in four years — ‘Will there be a world war?’ Almost no one would have said yes. We can see that coming.” #breakthroughnews Fri, 24 Apr 2026 14:11:10 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://tankie.tube https://tankie.tube/lazy-static/avatars/3ba3ff73-a8b6-49c9-add8-9653ef090c7f.webp https://tankie.tube/videos/watch/aa8a4e1d-271f-4d3a-b418-7ce778944351 All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://tankie.tube/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
