Iran: You hate America?
Random country: Yes!
Iran: Here is your weapon.
Iran: We support other dictatorships!
Unfortunately that’s what it has become where in a more reasonable world Iran is actually a natural ally of the United States! What a disappointment.
@@csdffwgdfgfdf If that was the case they'd have great relations with all the gulf nations. They don't.
@@csdffwgdfgfdf no they don't like America because
1. The us overthrew their democratically elected leader mohammad mosaddeq for oil and a pro western government.
2. After the revolution, the US funded both sides during the Iraq, Iran war to make money.
3. The sanctions on Iran because of the revolution against the pro western government.
@@csdffwgdfgfdflike armenia
The complexities and number of players in this geopolitical puzzle boggles my mind. Suddenly I understand why being a peacemaker isn’t as easy as one may think.
Someone actually thinks being a peacemaker is easy?
Throwing a ton of spaghettis on a plate doesn't change the fact that the thing is a plate under a bunch of spaghettis. People do forget this A LOT!
People can over-complicate anything and the reality is that it isn't complicated at all, it's intangible BS designed to obscure simple realities.
It's easy. Stopp Americas global Aggression and Peace will come by itself.
Wait, you actually think peacemakers are real ? There's no good vs bad guy situation, it's all bad my brother in humanity.
Who would these "peacemakers" be in your mind?
This underplays the recent historic animosity between Iran and the USSR/Russia.
There's a big square in Tehran that had three flags painted on the ground in the 1980s so they would be disrespected as thousands of people walk on them every day. Those flags were of the USA, Israel, and USSR.
Russia is not the USSR so chill out
USSR no longer exists and UK flag should replace it. Until that no longer exists.
@@elmehdinafia1237it doesn't matter, Russia is a direct successor of USSR
That is very disrespectful.
Thank you .very comprehensive. Meaningful.and informative
What makes RealLifeLore exceptional is that instead of stringing together an overly simplified story, the channel gives you a whole messy web and walks you through how it all works.
Not really, more like a propaganda channel that mostly just shares pro west bs information and never really going into the deeper intricacies of geopolitics
@@DenLim123both sides are spewing propaganda idrk what u expect him to say
That opening is pure propaganda.
Now wether it's due to him being influenced by said propaganda,
(makes him a poor researcher)
Or it's due to him being paid, to push a narrative that he knows is propaganda,
(makes him a deceptive sellout) I do not know.
Russians and MAGAs make me laugh.
So can someone in these replies actually point to a specific part of the video and explain exactly why it’s ”western propaganda”?
Basically the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

@@NyrionyxThey're allies first and foremost because they both hate the West more than anything or anyone else.

Temporarily*
But no information about blue banana
Many thanks for your much appreciated and amazing coverage of these critically important topics!
Greatly informative cheers.
Just goes to show that the phrase "War makes for strange bedfellows" holds true even to this day
Not that strange, though. Both Iran and Russia deny the neoimperialist hegemony of the USA for quite a while. The drastic increase of trade with India and China with all parties saying goodbye to the USD is also natural. The illegal Western sanction is like shooting youself in the foot in terms of the dominance of the USA worldwide.
Repent and obey Jesus, No hypocrites will enter the kingdom of God!! You can’t say you love Jesus and live in willful sin that’s playing the hypocrite and You will go to hell if you don’t repent and start obeying Jesus. Jesus says that most people go to hell!! Why? Because they believe they love Jesus but their lifestyle doesn’t show that they love Jesus🙌🏼🙏🏽
Two autocratic nations that use religion to control their mistreated people kind of fit together well. Abrahamic religions are barely different anyways.
Enemy of my enemy. And the US has gone out of its way to do nothing but make enemies throughout most of the world and prove we have no loyalty to allies other then Israel.
@cavebaby berserkers keep your ra. may the flying spaghetti monster bless you. rAmen.
This video is a good reminder that military alliances are always complicated! There's never only two sides in a conflict.
Which is why even though the forefathers of the U.S. managed to escape "warring europe" and start a wonderful existence, the "warring middle east" is and has been ground 0.....
Which is why the west shouldn't involve themselves in eastern wars.
I think there is a book that teaches people this lesson?
@@kingbyronarmstrong First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out-
Because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out-
Because I was not a trade unionist.

Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me-and there was no one left to speak for me.
If we continue to let bigger nations bully their neighbours, eventually we'll only have a small handful of massive nationstates. I'd also argue that with the forced abduction of ukranian children, mass graves, execution of civilians, bombing of hopsitals, schools and so forth, this is not only a war, but a genocide.
Do you think America is worry about Iran??? Or Russia? We can take Russia, China and Iran at the same time eliminating you within several months or less.
cope lmao, ukraine is in a 2v1 and winning

@@Floridaboi-pe3fkdon't forget very pro-America point of view, which is ran by the military industrial complex, war is very good for stock dividends.
@@kalrandom7387 he's mostly just stating information though
I’ve always wanted to learn about the Middle Eastern conflict but never got into it because it’s BEYOND complicated. Thanks for the somewhat easily digestible video.
I’m a nutshell their religions suck. They will never change and are a plague on society.
Knowledge is power friend
I wouldn't take this guy as true information. If you want to know about middle east loom up local information they seem to tell things differently than western reporters
It's actually quite simple. Muslims all hate Israel and west. Muslims though are split into major 2 camps the Saudi Arabian supporting Sunnis and the Iranian supporting Shiites. This has caused a cold war between Iran and the Saudi Kingdom. Islam is shit and so are most religions, but islam is the shittiest of them all. Look at any islamic country and that should be obvious. Wherever that deplorable religion spreads, death and oppression come with it.
All you have to do is understand the interference of Israel/US/UK/France in the Middle East you will probably understand 90% of all issues .. The West & Israel committed major war crimes, devided nations, installed, funded, armed and supported PUPPET RUTHLESS DICTATORS, encouraged corruption and bribery, and stole the resources, such as oil and land! .. the other 10% is simple, Iranian people are nice people but the Iranian leaders are scam artists! Iran is under extreme threat from the US/Israel, Iran wants to control Arabs (but they can't) .. Isis is a "false flag" group funded, armed and supported by Intelligent agencies (US/Israel) to manufacture fear and hate against Islam and Arabs! (I traveled and lived in many countries, spent half of my life in the Middle East and the other half in the US)
One of the best video I seen this year
Fantastic video
9:30 One interesting thing that was left out is that the Islamic Revolution was not a unified movement. There were secularists, communists, and others in addition to the islamists. Khomeini then purged all others, similar to Lenin & Stalin, and because the communists were purged the USSR, who was initially friendly to the anti-American regime, broke ties with Iran.
I am uncomfortable about referring to autocratic regimes that do not have support of the country's people as being equal to The whole country. Like when it says the Iranians support Russia in Ukraine it is not that ordinary Iranian people agree with Putin's invasion. Many Iranians have shown they don't support the regime in Iran or it's policies with protests that were ongoing over a long time
Iranian people do Not Like their bloody Regime.
@@sylviaramsay9180
The same with Belarus, who mass protested Lukashenko in 2020.
Really, the Russians are the only ones who are complacent with their dictator.
The insane amount of detail in this video is incredible, informative and the best.
But no information about blue banana
Thus is a western propaganda delivering channel nothing more
False information... Lies over Lies!
Unlike some of their other videos...
(Scotland independence GIUK gap)
@Mercy Ogunsakin don't just cry he's lying point out where he's lying and how it's false. Or you not real and just botman ?
Thanks!
Good job. Very good video.
Man being Azerbaijani i just love our geographic location. So many good neighbors!
What a lovely Neighborhood... I hope everyone have fun and made some party together, make sure they invite you..😆
Considering your "geographic location" and how young Azerbaijan (as an independent state) is, I think Azerbaijan made a huge strategic mistake by trying to get closer to Israel and Turkey. I can't fully understand why they have done that really. But now, I think your northern neighbor wants to gain control over Azerbaijan once again, while it can (because 50 years or 100 years from now, it may be too costly or maybe even impossible to do that, considering the role of Turkey and the EU). Still, I think they will allow Nakhichevan to still exist as an independent entity, but I could be wrong. In that hypothetical (but logical) scenario, Armenia then may even try to cut off the Nakhichevan-Turkey border, just in case (for future).
behave then
I am sorry for you. Stick with science and development.
It seems you have not watched the documentary precisely. You have just one neighbor. You are a poor Iranian who are separated from your homeland by Russians. Just like other Caucasians.😉
Videos like this make you realize how little alot of us truly know, about what's going on around the world, and all the Geopolitical things going on as well. It opens your eyes into how important every little thing is, and how conflicts and power struggles have been happening for centuries.
You know the ussr invaded almost the whole Europe and sum of China. They once held 5/6th of Europe. They invaded Alaska too. Ussr only know invade
There's zero sources in this video. Everything this video claims should be taken with a grain of salt.
Given how much he left out, like the now public fact that Iran's first revolution that lead it to being a US "ally" was because of US meddling and CIA operations, its no friggin wonder they hate the west
@@DaeLh 100%, this is anti Russian propaganda

Great journalism, thank you.
Great video
I purchased a 1 year subscription to Nebula just to watch your videos. You never cease to impress with the quality and breadth of your videos.
I need to pull that trigger too, just been so enamored with stuff like video games in my free time lol
Did that one year ago, unfortunately had a bad experience with streaming. Was really really slow for me, asked for a refund and they delivered. Might try it again, it has great content.
@@gtPacheko Thank you for sharing, I was just about to switch to Nebula until I read this comment! I hate streaming issues
@@internet_userr for me nebula has been really smooth with little to no issues. Pretty sure the platform has been cleaned up a lot from one year ago. 9/10 would reccomend
Nebula gave me a little trouble with casting to my Chromecast. BUT, only once. Worked great aside from that. And I LOVE his Modern Conflicts series. I'd recommend Nebula most definitely. Def worth the cost, especially with the discount.
man geopolitics sure is a hell of a messy thing. So many things happen behind the scenes we barely know about until things come to light. Thank you RLL for showing us the web that connects that part of the world most of us will never know about unless for YT channels like yours!
It is. That's why it's a disaster when fools like Donald Trump can make decisions. Here is one of many examples of how irreparable the damage is that completely incompetent foreign policy does. The Obama administration, for example, has been trying to slowly improve relations with Iran and end its isolation. Certainly also because analysts saw the dangers that are now being realized even then. By Trump's cancellation of the nuclear deal and reinstatement of sanctions to play strongman, he has put Iran in a situation that leaves them no choice but to join forces with Russia. American geopolitics has been a carefully balanced affair for many decades. But stupid decisions by angry children will ensure that America's adversaries become ever more organized.
The main reason is because america did the same thing to them over Isreal.
This video is full of speculation, and unproven assumptions, and even outright lies gathered from western propaganda sources, especially at beginning in relation to the Ukraine war, you just assume a whole lot of things are facts, when they are totally unproven. I also love how you conveniently forget to mention the CIA coup d'état in Iran in 1954, and how British and American petroleum companies didn't want the Iranian government to nationalize its oil and gas wealth, and installed the brutal Shah in their democratic governments place.
You also forget the mention the role the USA has played in keeping the Middle east war torn and divided for decades in its efforts to isolate an destroy Iran, wit its colonial settler outpost Israel always willing to do its bidding, and your idea that Russian and Iran are totally isolated is false, most of the world in fact nearly all the world outside the collectives west has not sanctioned Russia, only 13% of Humanity has sanctioned Russia, but is common for the people in the west to consider themselves the whole world, and every one else just their subservient monkeys, what idiots like you fail to realize is those days are now well and truly over.
@@JefferyEpstiensBlackBook fk America, but really globalisation has got its hands in all countries, picking teams these days is pointless, but we all know powers that be which represents no country are the true toxic scum that needs to go!
its a messy thing because of the lairs and manipulators in power. You get rid of them, you get rid of the mess.
Thank you for these videos, I feel like I understand the geopolitical world a little better thanks to them.
I think you are exaggerating the relevance of the Tartus naval base. It can dock 4 frigates at best. It is essentially half of one pier and 2 tiny floating piers and a few repair facilities. It's not known how many soldiers are deployed there, but about a decade ago it was less than 10. And if you look at it on a map, it becomes clear that it lacks the support facilities for major repairs or to house a lot of people.
This channel often exaggerates.
@@alpsalish yes it does :l
So Russia supports Assad to prevent new pipelines from undercutting their market share in Europe?
when you hv nothin else, and ya other ports are frozen ... its a critical asset to hv.
I don't doubt you, but I'm sure they are upgrading the facility as we type.
once enemies start working together you know its gonna be a strong alliance, because enemies have more to prove to each other then to their friends but,ofc, they do it for their own benefit
Your content is really great! really really great! keep going

i cant believe that someone that isnt orginally from iran or anywhere around that in the middle east would actually understand the middle eastern conflict because of how complicated it is. especially iran as it has been thorugh countless wars and much more complex history wavring around the revolution or even beforehand.
stop watching cnn and you might have what he have.
Its not that hard to understand if you have a brain and listen and study
But i guess for lazy westerners or gen z'ers it can seem like alot 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
iranian here, most of us don't fully understand it either, the regime is very good at hiding their intentions and plans from the populace.
I’m not from that region but understand it quite easily. Everywhere and all peoples of the Middle East are unsophisticated and simpletons. Only white males in every country are capable of complexity. White men invented everything. Conquered the world by both mental and physical prowess.
The problem with being a middle eastern is that you'll undoubtedly have a dog in this fight which might color your opinions of certain actions. An outsider can usually provide a more objective view even if it's not as thorough.
why didn't you mention the fact that in 1956, America overthrew Irans democratically elected government, headed by Mossadegh?
Because it's a channel for western propaganda, you're welcome 🤗
Cmon man, do you really think that those western soyboys will tell something that makes them look like the bad guys?
@@user-my6vm9bb1x Look, we only did that because Iran is host to a backwards theocracy. Then the Socialists had to go and ruin it. The only upside was that those Socialists all got beheaded by the Muslims when it was all over.

Well explained...
Blatant propaganda
Videos like this peaked my interest in history and geopolitics 3 years ago when I was 17 and now I might dont know everything there is to know but I know a lot more than what I did before.

Absolutely incredible video. It blows my mind that this much information can be packaged into such an easily digestible format. 20 years ago you'd need to spend half your life at the Library checking out 40 different books to get even close to what this video provides in the same time we take to watch a sitcom. Bravo.
Technology does wonders when used correctly.
Yeah, overall good compared to most. Only throws a propaganda line (or mistake) here and there.
Like the “nuclear weapons research facilities” 🤣
Iran has a law considering nuclear weapons as haram. They only have nuclear ENERGY plants.
And also how the video says “United States” or “israel” (without adjective), but call Russia or Syria a “REGIME” while they have internationally audited elections.
@@iberico8174 internationally audited elections? What does that mean? So you consider Russia or Syria democratic? Lmao that’s certainly a much more propagandist claim than doing the same for Israel (that virtually change their government more often than I do my pants) or the US that atleast change all 4 to 8 yrs lol. And your first statement doesn’t make sense either. They have a law? Okay? So what? Have you ever read the full name of North Korea? Do you also comsider them democratic?

I would love to play a game of civ6 with you!!
I always have to watch these multiple times it’s such an over load of information. It’s really hard to wrap your brain around how truly vast world history actually is and how you can track what’s going on today with what has already happened 🤯
as the world becomes more globalized , its important for Israel , Iran and Saudi Arabia and America to try and improve relations , any attempts by the United States or Israel to declare war on Iran will probably lead to a war where neither side can win and neither side can end it , it could last 100 year because it would be ideological , anytime you have ideology involved , wars become endless , the best policy would be diplomatic where Iran , America and Israel agree on steps to open embassies or at least open consulates or at a bare minimum , a interest section at a host embassy , a war would essentially destroy the new world order
@@sinabagherisarvestani8924 The USA would demolish Iran.💀
We're grateful to Putin for contribution to development of great China!
after his cleansing of Russian people, Russia will be hopeful frontier for Chinese to civilize. So many people will enjoy Beautiful ski slopes and luxury resort hotels. 🤭🤭🤭
I am from Iran and we have been cursing America and Israel for 40 years! We are behind because of the USA sanction, otherwise we would have been in top 10 in almost every sector.Believe me, the whole Muslim world wants the destruction of Israel and USA, we Muslims have nothing to do with Monarchy improving relations with them!
Repent and obey Jesus, No hypocrites will enter the kingdom of God!! You can’t say you love Jesus and live in willful sin that’s playing the hypocrite and You will go to hell if you don’t repent and start obeying Jesus. Jesus says that most people go to hell!! Why? Because they believe they love Jesus but their lifestyle doesn’t show that they love Jesus🙌🏼🙏🏽
I dont think historical rivalries allways are so important. If they were that important, England and France would keep killing each other as for the past 1000 years 😂
But they literally have been doing that for almost a thousand years though. The rise of Germany is the reason why they stopped doing that and realized a partnership is in their best interests.
@@ssteel indeed. Russia and iran now have a common enemy in USA.
@@ssteel That's exactly what pistoneteo is saying. One event is enough to bury 1000 years of hostility.
Very easy to understand, I learned something new 🎉 5:17
the military industrial complex is LOVING this conflict.
Even if this video gets a million views, it's highly underrated.
All the conflicts in this area always went over my head as I was only a kid when this stuff first sparked up and no one could explain them.
Thank you RLL for providing the only explanation of Middle Eastern politics that make sense.
And it's going over your head again. It's anti Russian propaganda
Great video. It's so interesting to get this context on events that I vaguely remember when I was a child. I never fully understood why the Soviet Union would invade Aghanistan or how the toppling of the Shah in Iran was so cataclysmic to the Middle East power balance.
Overthrow the Shah in Iran to balance the power of the Middle East?!!!
Who told you this?
The Soviet Union never invaded Afghanistan, they were asked for help by the new socialist government because the US was funding religious extremists.
@@shima6043 cataclysmic is negative. He means that the toppling of the shah and the installment of the current regime led to the debalancing of the middle east.
The shah was usurp by the power of CIA not russia
Considered informative for ignorant people but to those who know the real facts and studied the geopolitical dynamics of the region this is full of disinformation and misinformation.
They even repeated the mistake with the names Khamenei and Khomeini which is ridiculous pretty much all the time in this video as they did in previous videos.
Full of propaganda and lies and inaccurate data based on what West and Israeli propaganda mainly.
You forgot to highlight the greatest betrayal of the last century the qar on terror
Ukraine has now become a Area 51 war game testing ground.. 😅
A big checkered board with peices of every weapon
Iran has somehow remained self sufficient despite the decades of western sanctions. I wonder to what extent that is made possible by russian fertilizer, raw materials, military equip, etc. Now Russia desperately needs that transit corridor to enhance trade with India
I'm Iranian. We aren't self sufficient but reliant on sucking up to Russia and China because of the asshole Ali Khamenei. Industry workers went on strikes to demand a 79 percent rise in pay.
self sufficient?? Where did you get this information from? Have you talked to an average iranian about their average day? Have you read the reports on their GDP and economocial stauts?
We aren’t self sufficient, our bottle caps for our fake coca colla bottles were imported from germany 😂, our id card materials are all imported from other nations, the sanctions have destroyed the economy but made some people ( regime aligned merchants) rich, they can make a deal with the west and stop all of this but they won’t since they don’t get to sell their shitty products to the people , our inflation is hight the price of the USD doubled in the past three months, our currency is one of the weakest ones in the world even weaker that the Taliban’s.
North Korea held on for as long as it did up until the collapse of the USSR along with their subsidies and fertilizer exports. I wonder what’ll happen to Iran when the fertilizer stops coming?

Correction: it's not just the US and western Europe provided weapons and ammo - eastern Europe is also providing (e.g. Poland, Czechia, Bulgaria)
(They think those countries are also western europe)
Eastern, as in Western/Eastern- cold war designation.
Czech Republic is considered central Europe-dead on,and Poland is just more to the North.
@@japanesecar1501 poland is eastern europe lmao
Japan and South Korea too!
Poland is central Europe
Thank you 🩵🇮🇷🇰🇵🙏😇💯
this is a very informative video, but it also just hurts my head that all this conflict has risen in order for me to continue this lifestyle dependent on oil.
Thank you for the detailed breakdown of this, tonnes of interesting points that explain a few conflicts that didn't make sense to me.
Each nation does what’s in it’s immediate interest. It’s also worth noting that China is using less oil probably due to EVs which are 24% of their auto sales. Seems like if the West and China continue to use less oil, this undermines Russia and Iran, makes India less dependent on Russia, reduces China’s fear of having its oil supply through the South China Sea cut off, and reduces the chance of US jumping in on the side of whoever is supplying us oil. I would say a net positive influence. I like your series because it helps understand things that influence nations, rather than just demonizing the other based on religion, political tradition, or culture.
My thoughts exactly. Switch to electric and invest in renewables like never before. Then you cut off a lot of power they have in the middle east
Most of their electricity comes from Australian and American coal imports.
not sure those EV sales numbers are real at all m8, i think it is part of a huge fraud.
@@feanorguit is
@@furriesinouterspaceUnitedtrue but I remember reading articles talking about how it was inflated a bit because EV China bought were just sitting in fields and rusting.
Tragic on so many levels! 😢
one special thing about Iran is that the Iranian leadership is smart. The Iranians never rush, they take their time taking decisions and doing stuff on the international stage. Because of this mindset, Iran has managed to gain major advantages and gains using the limited available resources and power they have, the recent agreement with the Saudis is one major example of such.
That's great... If its not the Turks its the Iranians. Here we go for another Islamic invasion in Eastern Europe.
The thing is we don't know the deal Iran made with China and Saudi Arabia for that agreement. There are talk of Kish Island going to China for Instance. SA has funded propaganda services against Iran for a long time now and really had/has Iran currently dealing with a lot of internal turmoil. It will probably be a few years before we know what SA gained from the deal. But surly it wasn't nothing. Time will tell but one thing for sure is it's certainly interesting times.
@Chris F iirc the propaganda stuff has declined by SA, also the unrest in Iran has effectively ended a while ago, a few guys here and there won't cause a ln unrest
Limited available rescources????
Iran owns the 4th most oils in the world
2nd in the gas
2nd in hydrogene
Top ten in Uranium (forgot the ranking)
Biggest producer of psitachio saffron and caviar in the whole world is actiallg iran and more and more
And Iran never had much limited power really. read history there had always been a strong empire ruling iran OR Iran being conquered by others (But strong empires still occuring and growth of wealth such as seljuq turk empire)
@Daily life of an Iranian dude there is this interesting thing called sanctions with prevents Iran from selling a lot of these resources
Ever heard of it?
My highschool history teacher once said. All Russia ever wanted was a Warm water port
It's ironic because NATO would lock down Sevastopol immediately if a war happened. It's a useless port in wartime.
Sounds like it was the biggest thing they were missing. Civilizations tend to grow near ports. Russia probably doesn't mind global warming because as the world gets warmer. Russia would naturally gain warmer water ports.
Even if they have crimea there are still bosphor and Gibraltar straits that can block them out. So its time for Russia to get realistic and stop fucking with other free countries just for the sake of the port that wont even help them all that much
Man they might have gotten one if they werent total jackboots.
I mean I'll watch the whole video, but at 8:41 and realised we went from the 40s to the 60's and sort of overlooked the 50s with respect to western involvement in Iran.
This is a channel that actually cares about explaining what is really going on behind all of this. Much appreciated

Got one fact wrong.
Crimea is a previous Russian headquarters of it's Naval Fleet - Ukraine Naval forces expelled The Russian Naval Fleet from Crimea in 2022.
War needs to STOP 🛑
I hear from Iranians who fought in the iraq/Iran war that the Islamic revolution wouldn’t have been successful had it not been for iraq invading them.
Iranians were quite liberal and the vast majority were against Islamic rule. But they relented and rallied behind the new government in order to save their country. It’s quite sad that history played out this way
So that’s why 99% of Iranians are Shia
Yea Russian not gonna be communist if german not invading them
our history is complex even our own people dont knoe much about it even though they know alot about it
At least they now have the guts to call USA what it really is... The Great Satan.
So, tell me. Are you saying that those 40+ years are still them playing pretend? It doesn't make sense that it took 1 war for history to "play out like that". Maybe it's other factors that Americans does not want to mention for some reason?
