Colonel Douglas Macgregor: New World - Israel Dying, NATO Dead & U.S. Defeated by Iran (Video)

In this 9 June 2026 pub;ished video, host Prof. Glenn Diesen talks with Douglas Macgregor, a retired Colonel, combat veteran and former senior advisor to the U.S. Secretary of Defense. Col. Macgregor argues the US must adjust to a post-hegemonic world order. failure to adjust is resulting in Israel dying, NATO already being dead, and the U.S. being defeated by Iran.
Macgregor contends that Israel’s strategic overreach—culminating in all-out conflict with Iran and regional groups like Hezbollah—has backfired. By exhausting its domestic military resources and draining Western aid pipelines, Israel has severely degraded its long-term viability, leaving it increasingly vulnerable in an antagonistic regional landscape.
According to Macgregor’s thesis, NATO fundamentally died on the battlefields of Ukraine. He asserts that the alliance has been hollowed out by overextending its military industrial capacities and suffering systemic planning failures, transforming it into a defunct framework incapable of altering the global balance of power.
The ongoing direct and indirect escalations with Iran—marked by major missile exchanges and the targeting of U.S. assets around the Strait of Hormuz—have proven that the U.S. cannot dictate outcomes in the Middle East. Macgregor views the conflict as a strategic defeat where Washington has expended immense military prestige only to end up isolated against a resilient, asymmetric adversary.
This discussion aligns with Macgregor’s long-standing, non-interventionist critiques of Western defense doctrine. His viewpoints frequently challenge mainstream Washington consensus, often predicting the rapid breakdown of Western military coalitions. While Macgregor points to these events as definitive proof of the end of the U.S. global empire, other mainstream geopolitical analysts, such as historians offer more nuanced assessments. They debate whether the current flashpoints signify an absolute U.S. defeat, or rather an unstable, highly dangerous period of escalation and prolonged deterrence failure between Washington, Jerusalem, and Tehran.
