Prof. Jeffrey Sachs, 8/1/26
"US - Iran War:
This Is Far Worse Than Most People Realize"
"In this new interview, Professor Jeffrey Sachs argues that repeated American threats against Iran lack credibility because the military and economic costs of escalation would be catastrophic. He says renewed strikes would provoke retaliation, disrupt shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, push oil prices toward $100 a barrel, and create political consequences ahead of the November elections. He also recommends an immediate halt to bombing rather than pursuing an agreement that neither side can realistically accept. Sachs also offers a highly critical assessment of Israeli politics, arguing that the country's political competition is between different shades of hawkish leadership rather than between advocates of war and peace. The video explains that his descriptions of Israeli policy, including allegations of apartheid, ethnic cleansing, genocide, and war crimes, are presented as his own views on issues that remain fiercely contested internationally. The conclusion distinguishes verified data from forecasts and argues that separating evidence from opinion is essential when evaluating major geopolitical claims."
