In this episode, the panel explains how traditional Western media is presenting a completely misleading reading of how the war in Iran is actually going. Dr Frans Cronje and Richard Tren analyse the latest updates, America's strategic victories, the actual global economic position, and what the effect of the war on global markets has actually been. From there, Simon Reader turns to a good news story about the South African Nathan Kirsh's $29 billion deal. Dr James Myburgh provides a detailed analysis of proposed changes to the law that will supposedly "end cadre deployment" and why it will not achieve that. Richard then shares his thoughts about a global trade event he attended in Washington with US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer that South Africa did not attend. Frans rounds out the show by discussing the Artemis mission and its strategic importance in the 'race for space' between China and America. He explains the prospects for future mining, trade, energy production, and weapons deployment from space, and why countries that control the 'Hormuz points in space' will control the balance of military and economic power on Earth.
