Mike Benz Shares Late Night Thoughts On US Strikes In Iran After Trump Speech

Benz, central to issues relating to free speech, fell into the whirlpool of geopolitics as Trump late night announced military strikes in...

Appreciative responses were based on such nuanced dialogue, with one noting that “people learn more when they read exchanges like this.” Another substantive reaction struck a chord with Benz’s concern that domestically-minded MAGA voters will indeed feel betrayed if military action ends up supplanting diplomacy as the main road down: further illustrating the political treadmill the administration is on. Things turn somewhat darker when another reply suggests a kind of “joint plan between Trump and Netanyahu,” which will be followed by the “battle for Strait of Hormuz.” Another response made the whole conflict irrelevant to all geopolitical contexts with just “we all were born, we all will die just the same.” Benz’s own parting lines went on a spiritual note and diverged in rare fashion from his usual free-speech analysis: “we now leave it to God and to fate” for the potential of escalation. Dawn having broken in London, and across various time zones and ideological divides, the digital aftermath of Trump’s speech had just begun to unravel, with Benz’s video remaining part of this sprawling, heated global conversation that shows no sign of ever being resolved.
