Mehdi Hasan vs. ‘Professor’ Jiang

03.04.2026 Автор: Zeteo Self-styled “professor” Xueqin Jiang became an internet sensation after a 2024 video he posted to his YouTube channel went viral. In the video, Jiang made three big predictions: Trump would win the 2024 election, the US would go to war with Iran, and ultimately, the US would lose that war. He has been dubbed “China’s Nostradamus,” and his YouTube channel now has more than 2 million subscribers. But in this ‘Mehdi Unfiltered’ interview, Mehdi Hasan challenges Jiang on how accurate – or unique! – those predictions are, including the big 2024 prediction he got wrong; whether he has slipped into antisemitic conspiracy theorizing; and why exactly his YouTube channel isn’t being censored by China. In this provocative and wide-ranging interview, Mehdi also presses Jiang on peddling conspiracy theories about the Illuminati and the Jesuits, as well as his promotion of the far-right concept of “Pax Judaica.”
