Chinese-Canadian historian Jiang Xueqin’s 2024 lecture went viral on social media after he made a number of geopolitical predictions, such as Donald TrumpThe electoral resurgence and major conflict with Iran are consistent with current developments in the Middle East.
In his speech, the academic, sometimes called “China’s Nostradamus,” predicted that tensions between Washington and Tehran could escalate into war as Trump returns to power in the United States.
After diplomatic talks failed, Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu launched a coordinated military attack on Iran in an attempt to destroy the country’s nuclear capabilities.
In response, Iran launched a series of military attacks against Middle Eastern countries that host U.S. military installations. Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Husseini Khamenei was also killed in the attack.

In 2024, Jiang Zemin issued a third shocking prediction. According to the Daily Mail, the professor predicted that the United States would lose in the Iran conflict.
In a recent interview with Breaking Points, Jiang maintained his original prediction, noting that Iran “has more advantages” than the United States.
He insisted that Iran has been using its proxies such as Hamas and Hezbollahand is ready for war with the United States.
He stressed that U.S. military practices are unsustainable and are aimed at “showing off force,” adding that sending ground troops to Iran would be the worst thing that could happen to the United States.
He said, “The purpose of the U.S. military is not to fight wars in the 21st century.”
The professor went on to say that if ground troops are deployed to Iran, Trump may ask Congress for permission to use emergency war powers, which could win him a third term.
In a speech titled “The Iran Trap” in 2024, Jiang Zemin made three major predictions about global politics:
“If Trump were to win a second term, he might consider invading Iran,” the professor wrote in the course description. “While the initial invasion looked like it would be successful, U.S. forces would soon become bogged down in the mountains of Iran.”
At the time, the professor predicted Trump would defend the war, claiming it would eliminate Iran’s nuclear weapons and bring democracy to the region.
In line with the professor’s prediction, Trump said after the February 28 attack, “The policy of the United States, and particularly of my administration, has been that this terrorist regime can never have a nuclear weapon. I say it again, they can never have a nuclear weapon.”

Jiang identified three main factors leading to conflict between the United States and Iran.
He said, “The United States is now obsessed with empire because empire represents easy money. All money has to be channeled through the United States.”
He further elaborated that Iran’s survival is threatened by Saudi Arabia. Iranian forces have been fighting rebel groups backed by Saudi Arabia, and Saudi forces have long been fighting Iranian-backed rebel groups.
He pointed out that Netanyahu is acquainted with Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, whose father is a major contributor to AIPAC.
Jiang Zemin later predicted that Trump would “launch a full-scale invasion of Iran in March 2027 with the cooperation of Israel and Saudi Arabia, and the support of the United Kingdom, Australia, the United Arab Emirates, and Poland.”
