STREAMING THE MAKING OF THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 3-30-20361930 CAVALIERS DE ARABIEThis transcript from the John Batchelor Show provides a multifaceted analysis of a hypothetical global conflict centered on a war with Iran in March 2026. Experts Bill Roggio, Husain Haqqani, and Jonathan Sayeh discuss the strategic stalemate and economic fallout, specifically highlighting the sharp rise in American fuel prices. The dialogue covers a vast geopolitical landscape, including a U.S. policy reversal toward Cuba, drone warfare in Ukraine, and the entry of Houthi rebels into the naval theater. Analysts emphasize the asymmetric nature of the fighting, noting that the Iranian regime aims to win simply by enduring military strikes. Furthermore, the participants critique the Trump administration's lack of a clear exit strategy and the humanitarian impact on Iranian civilians caught between government suppression and foreign bombardment. The discussion concludes by evaluating the potential for internal resistance and the complexities of finding a credible diplomatic mediator. (1)
