Key Notes
Jiang suggests U.S. authorities are preparing for domestic unrest through a possible draft, National Guard deployments, and cabinet movement to military bases.
Jiang argues that even an American withdrawal without ground war would be dire because GCC states would reorient financially, petrodollar support would weaken, and the U.S. economy could face collapse and domestic unrest.
Jiang says China is not interested in the Middle East in the same way because it sees itself as the Middle Kingdom and is more concerned with domestic unrest than overseas war.
He says a broader escalation could still happen if Trump needs a foreign distraction from unrest at home, faces pressure from advisors or donors, or becomes entangled in a hotter Israel-Iran confrontation.
