What was said
"As we've seen with the Arabian side of the Persian Gulf, the US has basically run out of interceptors, and the ability to protect its own ships would be limited."
Zeihan disclosed that US forces have exhausted their supply of interceptor missiles on the Arabian side of the Persian Gulf, limiting their ability to defend American ships. This revelation came amid his explanation of why the US cannot safely place aircraft carriers in the Gulf during the current Iran conflict.
