Two documentary filmmakers, Robert Cibis and James Patrick, both working on projects about World War III, launch this weekly news analysis show to cover the most significant — and often under reported — war stories of the week.

The "Meme War" Between the US and Iran Both the White House and the Iranian government have been producing humorous cartoon videos as a form of psychological warfare — a bizarre and historically unusual move, since this kind of satirical content has traditionally come from dissidents, not governments themselves.

Rising Anti-War Sentiment in the US One NGO supporting conscientious objectors reported a tenfold increase in US military personnel seeking to leave service. The hosts argue Trump was elected on a peace platform but has since become involved in virtually every active conflict.

Unreported US Military Losses Up to 27 US military bases have been attacked, with the US officially admitting to 13 destroyed. A detailed Iranian account of an alleged ambush of the 82nd Airborne Division in Kuwait on March 27th — involving drone strikes, F-14 jets, and special forces — received virtually no coverage in Western media.

The Fertilizer Crisis — The Biggest Story The closure of the Strait of Hormuz is cutting off not just oil, but a massive share of the world's fertilizer supply — right at the start of the northern hemisphere's growing season. Combined with existing European restrictions on fertilizer use, Russian export sanctions, and China halting fertilizer exports to Europe at the end of 2025, the hosts warn of potential famines across Asia and East Africa, and serious food security concerns in Europe.

Trump's Strategy and the Risk of a Wider War - Trump has publicly called on European nations and other oil-dependent countries to militarily "grap" the Strait of Hormuz themselves — a deliberate attempt to drag Western Europe into the conflict. No naval escort operation could realistically protect the volume of tankers passing through daily, making diplomacy the only viable solution.

The Broader Picture - There appear more and more links between the Iran conflict, the Ukraine war, and growing Russian and Chinese support for Iran — including satellite intelligence and missile targeting assistance. Patrick and Cibis raise the concern that Ukrainian drone strikes over Baltic airspace could pull EU and NATO countries into open conflict. This is less about geopolitical necessity and more about a deliberate, managed escalation toward some form of new global order — a classic "problem, reaction, solution" dynamic.
