AI Data Centers, Infrastructure Attacks in Bahrain and UAE
Ballistic missile and drone strikes have targeted AWS data center locations in Bahrain and the UAE, causing devastating physical damage. The vulnerability of expensive AI infrastructure to direct military hits is highlighted as a new risk in modern warfare. Some suggest the conflict is tied to a broader strategy to ensure U.S. dominance in AI by controlling the energy required to power massive data centers.

30:14 I think this is much bigger than we realize. Europe has to buy it from us, Asia has to buy it from us... We're going to power all of the infrastructure and all the AI They took out a whole bunch of data centers too which is kind of interesting Amazon data centers There's your AI They bombed one? Yeah they bombed a couple of them They were in Iran? No no, Saudi Arabia Who bombed them? The Iranians Well, that's interesting. Yeah! Let me see if I still have that... I have a link somewhere about it. Yeah they took out a... Actually it was our boots on the ground guy here he is let me see this from our guy in the region A new casualty of war as data centers and cloud service providers both AWS locations Oh in Bahrain? I'm sorry and UAE not Saudi Arabia were targeted in the past three weeks
31:11 The impact was quite devastating as data center physical security protects from an intruder or fire but no data centers designed to withstand a direct drone or ballistic missile hit. Now consider the future crosshair the world will have around shiny new and expensive AI data centers, and the potential cost of fortifying." So You know some I think somehow wrapped up in this is and that could be part of Trump's maniacal idea that AI is the new oil the most important thing in the world and you can't power them without without our nuclear and LNG plants And we're gonna outrun China with it. China has a China as really is hurting, I think from this this oil glut much much less than we are
32:00 So, if there's a big plan and a big strategy behind it part of it is working. I think the dollar seems to be getting stronger which in my mind means people need dollars to get energy and the next boots to fall on the ground would be hey Russia go ahead and sell it! Let Russia sell the oil real cheap we've already kind of started that Well, we'll see. It seems too damn complicated. What do you mean? I mean you got all these moving parts You've got the oil and gas and then there's all these other subcategories in fact if you can play this clip which is urea is another missing element in Australia Oh that's the pig urine
