What was said

"The latest completed railroad in their Five Base Road Initiative railroads was probably the most strategic one in many ways. It brings China's Pacific ports all the way around on land and then intended was up the Persian Gulf along the old route that we used to resupply the Soviet Union during World War II and eventually into the Caucasus and beyond. And now we're bombing it."

Colonel Wilkerson reveals that the US and Israel are actively bombing Chinese-built infrastructure in Iran, specifically targeting a critical Belt and Road Initiative railroad. This strategic railway would allow Chinese goods to reach Europe in 16 hours versus days by sea, fundamentally reshaping global commerce and potentially rendering US maritime power less relevant.
