P191
America will deliberately allow the global economy to collapse as a consequence of the Iran war dragging on, then retreat to its fortress while the world suffers

What Jiang said

“It's not intentional, but it's a consequence... America can suffer the consequence of the collapse of the global economy because America is self-sufficient and can always retreat back into its fortress”

Analysis

America is self-sufficient and can retreat into its fortress; the global economy will suffer but it will seem in hindsight that America had this plan all along
