00:00that costs less than a luxury car can force a military to fire a missile worth more than a
00:05mansion. That is not just war. That is financial warfare. Iran did not need to build the world's
00:12strongest army. It found something more dangerous. A way to make powerful enemies spend millions
00:18defending against weapons that cost thousands. And once this equation spreads, the economics of
00:24war will never be the same again. For decades, war was simple. The richest military usually had the
00:31advantage. More fighter jets, more aircraft carriers, more satellites, more missiles, more money. But
00:39Iran exposed a weakness inside this system. Because the most expensive army in the world can still be
00:45trapped by one question. How much does it cost to defend yourself? This video is not about who has
00:52the biggest army. It is about who can afford to keep fighting. War has always been about money.
00:58Rome needed roads, taxes, soldiers, and grain. The British Empire needed ships, ports, and colonies.
01:05World War II was won through factories, oil, steel, and logistics. The Cold War was not only a nuclear
01:12standoff, it was an economic contest. Who could spend longer? Who could build more? Who could survive
01:19the pressure? For most of history, expensive power defeated cheap resistance.
