"While President Trump claims that the U.S. has "destroyed 100% of Iran’s Military capability," the IRGC just launched their 54th wave of retaliatory attacks on Sunday, which included the use of Sejjil ballistic missiles for the first time.
This, as reports say Israel is running low on interceptor missiles, and as Trump learns the hard way that there is nothing he can do to force Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz..."
This interview explores the geopolitical struggle behind rising tensions in West Asia, arguing that the conflict is largely driven by control over global energy markets. The discussion highlights Iran’s role as a resilient regional power that has survived decades of sanctions while building strong military and technological capabilities. It also examines the strategic involvement of Russia and China, the shifting balance of power in Eurasia, and the potential impact on alliances such as BRICS. The conversation suggests the conflict reflects deeper global rivalries, energy politics, and the decline of traditional Western dominance in the region.
Iran is likely pacing itself for a long-term conflict lasting 6 months to even 1 year or more;
Even if the US "pauses" like it did last year, the war will continue because eliminating Iran is key to encircling Russia and ultimately containing China;
Beware of those blaming "Israel" for this war as Israel is merely an extension of US power in the region like Ukraine is vis-a-vis Russia in Eastern Europe;
Shifting blame to a US proxy allows the US to carry out extreme measures without taking responsibility for them up to and including the use of nuclear weapons and the destruction of the global economy;
The
US can continue existing as a rapacious empire with or without Israel -
it surely did fine for almost 2 centuries before Israel was created out
of thin air by the Anglo-Americans - but the crimes of Israel would be
impossible without US empire behind it.
Israel is not blameless.
Blame it for its role in facilitating Western empire up to and
including abetting genocide and wars of aggression.
But do not blame it for "corrupting" something that was never wholesome to begin with.
