Let’s take a second and talk about what Patrick Henningsen actually got right since the last time he was on The Rice Report—because he didn’t just ‘have an opinion.’ He called this stuff months before it hit the headlines. Here’s the breakdown: 🔹 1. The Al-Qaeda Coup in Syria Back in our last interview, Patrick predicted the Al-Qaeda offshoot HTS would take over in Syria—and guess what? That’s exactly what happened. The so-called 'moderate rebels' weren’t moderate—they were rebranded terrorists backed by U.S., Israeli, and Gulf intelligence. Period. 🔹 2. The Christian Purge in Maaloula He warned that ancient Christian towns like Maaloula—where they still speak Aramaic—were being intentionally targeted. Churches burned, nuns kidnapped, artifacts destroyed. The media ignored it. Patrick didn’t. And he was right. 🔹 3. The Weaponized Sectarian Chaos Patrick laid out how Western governments deliberately inflamed Sunni vs. Shia violence to fracture Syria’s secular structure. That strategy unfolded exactly as he said—especially in Damascus and Idlib. 🔹 4. U.S. Boots on the Ground for Oil He called it: The U.S. didn’t leave Syria. They just shifted. Trump’s administration locked down 25% of the country—exactly where the oil is. Still occupied to this day. Why? Energy leverage and regional control. 🔹 5. Israel’s Strategic Land Grab He said Israel’s goal wasn’t defense—it was expansion. He predicted they’d use the war to take the Golan Heights and push a corridor toward Iran. Now they’ve got firepower in place and a straight shot to the border. This isn’t conspiracy. This is documented history, unfiltered and uncensored. 💥 You’ll discover: Why Syria’s ancient Christian communities were intentionally targeted The U.S. & Israel’s REAL role in the rise of Al-Qaeda & ISIS factions in Syria How the destruction of heritage sites like Maaloula is part of a broader strategy Why Iran is next—and how it ties directly to the U.S. elections and Trump’s cabinet The shocking truth about Yemen, Iraq, and the manipulation behind global war narratives. 00:00 - Intro & Syria Predictions: Patrick returns to discuss past predictions on Syria that came true and sets the stage for a deep dive into Middle East geopolitics. 10:00 - The Story of Mulah: Exploring the ancient Aramaic-speaking town of Mulah, its significance to Christianity, and how it was targeted in the Syrian conflict. 20:00 - Christian Heritage Under Attack: How Western-backed rebels, ISIS, and Al-Qaeda destroyed historic churches, and Syria’s deep religious history. 30:00 - Syria, Lebanon & Greater Middle East: The division of Greater Syria, colonial betrayal, and how sectarian harmony was replaced by war. 40:00 - Israel’s Strategy & U.S. Involvement: The role of Israel, the U.S., and Gulf States in destabilizing the region, and the geopolitical goals behind the conflict. 50:00 - Yemen War Explained: Patrick breaks down the U.S.-backed war on Yemen, how it started, and Yemen’s surprising military resilience. 01:00:00 - Humanitarian Crisis & Ceasefire Deception: How Israel resumed attacks during a supposed ceasefire, and Yemen’s efforts to stop genocide in Gaza. 01:10:00 - MAGA, Trump & Changing Views: A critical look at Trump’s Middle East policy, MAGA’s shifting stance on AI, government power, and foreign influence. 01:20:00 - Iran Conflict & Nuclear Myth: Unpacking the truth behind Iran’s nuclear narrative, U.S./Israel pressure, and a call for fair disarmament. 01:30:00 - Populism, Pressure & Accountability: Why Americans must hold leaders accountable, and the generational consequences of silence. 01:40:00 - Free Speech Crisis in the U.S.: How students protesting genocide are being targeted, and the First Amendment is under threat from all sides. 01:50:00 - Technocrats, Zionism & Media Control: Influence of Israel, Elon Musk, AI, and the future of government power through technology. 02:00:00 - Closing Thoughts & Where to Follow Patrick: Patrick's powerful message on activism, truth, and staying informed.
