So today I want to discuss something that I think is one of the most important patterns in all of human history. And once you understand this pattern, everything happening right now in the Middle East will make complete sense to you. The pattern is this. Every great empire that has tried to conquer Iran, Persia has either collapsed, retreated, or been permanently weakened. Every single one without exception. And I want to argue today using game theory and structural history that America is next. So let's begin. Let's go back and look at history carefully because history does not repeat itself exactly. But as Mark Twain said, it rhymes. And in the case of Iran, it rhymes very, very loudly. First, Alexander the Great. Everyone knows Alexander. He conquered Egypt, Mesopotamia, and Persia, which is today Iran. And people say, "Wait a minute. Didn't Alexander actually win? Didn't he conquer Persia? " Yes, he technically conquered Persia. But what happened next? He died at 32 years old. His empire immediately collapsed. His generals fought each other. The Macedonian Empire was finished. And in its place, who rose to power? The Parththeians, Iranians, who then controlled the Middle East for the next 500 years. So the lesson here is simple. You can temporarily defeat Iran, but Iran defeats you in the long run. Second, the Roman Empire. The Romans were the greatest military power of the ancient world. Nobody came close. And the Romans fought the Parththeians, the Iranians, for over 300 years. Julius Caesar planned to invade Persia, but was assassinated before he could. Emperor Cassus invaded and was destroyed at the Battle of Carhai in 53 B.CE.
